Valmet's Q3 2014 interim review shows improved profitability and a strong balance sheet, with net debt at EUR -158 million and cash flow from operating activities at EUR 117 million. Orders received increased in pulp, energy, and paper sectors, despite slower growth in capital business, leading to an order backlog of EUR 2.3 billion. The company aims for further profitability improvements and forecasts a decline in net sales for 2014 compared to 2013, while expecting an increase in EBITDA before non-recurring items.
