Future prospects

European Central Bank’s monetary stimulus is expected to improve the economic outlook for the eurozone Euroconstruct and Forecon estimate that in 2015, construction would increase in all of Cramo’s operating countries with the exception of Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Russia In the long term, the equipment rental market is expected to grow faster than construction The European Rental Association (ERA) is expecting equipment rental services to increase in all of Cramo’s main markets in 2015. The growth is expected to somewhat strengthen compared to 2014 Guidance for 2015 unchanged: “There are economic and political uncertainties in Cramo’s markets related to 2015. With the current market outlook, Cramo Group’s sales will grow in local currencies and the EBITA margin will improve in 2015 compared to 2014.”
