Wärtsilä Corporation, Stock exchange release, 22 March 2019 at 10:30 E. Europe Standard Time
Wärtsilä provides restated financial information for 2018 in accordance with the new reporting structure
The technology group Wärtsilä’s new organisational structure became operational as of 1 January 2019. Wärtsilä’s financial reporting will reflect the new structure, with the two business areas, Wärtsilä Marine Business and Wärtsilä Energy Business, constituting the reportable segments.
Forming two business areas that cover both new equipment sales and services for the respective markets enables Wärtsilä to accelerate growth and the implementation of its Smart Marine and Smart Energy strategies. Integrating the newbuild and service activities enhances customer value by strengthening the focus on complete lifecycle solutions tailored to specific market needs. It also allows Wärtsilä to more effectively serve its customers with increased flexibility and faster response times.
Wärtsilä’s financial reporting for 2018 has been adjusted to reflect the new reporting structure and the restated comparison figures are presented in separate excel and PDF files attached to this release. This restatement has no impact on Group totals. In addition, Wärtsilä will report the service related order intake and net sales for the two segments. In the Wärtsilä Marine Business, sales for retrofit scrubber projects have been transferred from service to new equipment. The comparison figures have been adjusted accordingly.
