The Interim Report for January-March 2025 is set for April 30, 2025, the Half-year Financial Report for January-June 2025 for July 18, 2025, and the Interim Report for January-September 2025 for October 23, 2025.

KONE Corporation released its interim report for January–September 2024, highlighting continued strong growth in its Service and Modernization sectors. For the full year 2024, KONE expects sales growth of 0–3% at comparable exchange rates and an adjusted EBIT margin of 11.5%–11.9%. The negative impact of foreign exchange rates on adjusted EBIT is estimated to be around EUR 10 million. The company attributes its growth to the positive performance in Service and Modernization and a robust order book, while facing challenges from a declining New Building Solutions market in China. KONE's new strategy, "Rise," aims for mid-single-digit annual sales growth over the next three years and an adjusted EBIT margin of 13-14% by the end of 2027. The company is focusing on transforming its business with Service and Modernization as key drivers and is implementing performance initiatives to improve margins. The global New Building Solutions market showed regional differences, with growth in North America and stability in Europe, while activity in China declined. Service and Modernization markets continued to grow across all regions. KONE plans to hold press and analyst meetings to discuss these updates.
