    Erkki Vesola's questions to Metso Oyj (OUKPY) leadership • Q1 2024

    Question

    Erkki Vesola from Inderes requested a verbal description of the Aggregates sales division within Europe and asked about demand differences between regions like North, South, and Eastern Europe.

    Answer

    CFO Eeva Sipilä characterized Europe as heterogeneous, with the Nordics remaining the weakest area due to a muted construction market. France has slowed after a very active 2023 related to the Olympics, while other parts of Central, Eastern, and Southern Europe have seen fewer changes. She noted Metso has a good footprint across major markets, including a strong presence in its home market and Eastern Europe.
