Metso is hosting a Capital Markets Day today, November 22, in London, UK.

The main message of the Capital Markets Day is that Metso is fit for the future and aims to leverage its strong global position to drive profitable growth and shareholder value.
Assessment of the development for 2012
Today Metso’s management is publishing an assessment of Metso Group’s development for 2012 as follows:
Based on the assumption that our current relatively healthy demand from our customer industries will not be materially weakened by the financial turmoil in Europe or by any other similar development, we estimate that:
• Our net sales for 2012 will increase compared to 2011
• Our result (EBITA before non-recurring items) for 2012 will increase compared to 2011
Metso’s Capital Markets Day will begin at 9:00 a.m. GMT. Presentation materials will be published at www.metso.com/investors. The website will also feature an on-demand webcast of the event later today.
