CORRECTION TO FINANCIAL TIMES ARTICLE
KONECRANES PLC STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE JULY 29, 2008 KL. 15.20
CORRECTION TO FINANCIAL TIMES ARTICLE
Financial Times published an article “Konecranes proves a tower of strength” at
6.50 p.m. on July 28, 2008 on the website ft.com, which included an error. The
initial article, which now has been corrected, stated “For the whole of 2008, Mr
Lundmark hopes to see growth in operating profits of above 10 per cent”. The
article is based on an interview with Mr. Lundmark on June 15, 2008 in which he
reiterated the operating margin target for 2008 “The Group EBIT margin is
targeted to exceed the comparable level of 10.0 percent (excluding capital gain)
achieved in 2007.”
