Pressmeddelanden, rapporter och bolagsmeddelande för Nurminen Logistics Oyj

Nurminen Logistics Plc announced that its net sales and comparable operating profit for 2024 will be lower than in 2023, contrary to previous expectations of growth. This revision is due to a significant decrease in Baltic volumes caused by the ongoing Red Sea crisis, which has shifted transport routes from sea to land. Despite this, other business areas have seen volume growth since June, which is expected to improve profitability. The company also anticipates that the net result attributable to shareholders will increase from 2023, excluding one-off gains, due to reduced financial costs and minority interests. Nurminen Logistics emphasizes profitability to support future growth projects.
