37. FUTURE OUTLOOK
37
Estimates of the future outlook for Kesko Group's net sales and operating profit excluding
non-recurring items are given for the 12 months following the reporting period (1-12/2016)
in comparison with the 12 months preceding the reporting period (1-12/2015).
The general economic situation and the expected trend in consumer demand vary in
Kesko’s different operating countries. In Finland, owing to the weak trend in consumers’
purchasing power, the trading sector’s performance is expected to remain modest in all
product lines, which may be complicated further by actions taken to balance the public
finances. In the Finnish grocery trade, intense competition is expected to continue. The
market for the Finnish building and home improvement trade and car trade is expected to
remain weak. With respect to foreign countries, the economic situation and consumers’
purchasing power, as well as the outlook in Russia have weakened further. Whereas in
Sweden and Norway and the Baltic countries, the market is expected to grow.
Kesko Group's net sales for 2016 are expected to equal the level of the previous year. The
operating profit excluding non-recurring items for 2016 is expected to slightly exceed the
level of 2015.
The future outlook does not take account of the acquisitions of Suomen Lähikauppa and
Onninen, in respect of which estimates will be given in connection with their respective
completions.
