Result 2012

Satisfactory operative result in a difficult market situation

Edita Group’s net revenue increased by EUR 7.4 million. The operating profit without one-time items was EUR 2.1 million. Considerable structural changes were carried out in the Group, generating one-time expenses that impaired the Group’s result. One-time expenses totaled EUR 7.9 million. The Group’s operating profit, including one-time items, was EUR -4.1 million.  In strategic focus areas business grew and profitability developed as expected.
