The market situation remained challenging
Posti Group3
• The year 2015 was difficult for Posti due to digitalization in the communications
sector, the economic recession and the weak market situation.
• Volumes in heavy traffic (changes over 12 months) on Finnish main roads have
decreased for 44 consecutive months since May 2012.
• Competition has intensified further. Posti’s competitors started building a network of
parcel points in Finland, and media companies started delivering letters in early-
morning delivery.
• The number of parcels delivered by Posti reached a new record; a total of over 33
million parcels.
• In OpusCapita, demand of traditional iPost product decreased, volumes of
electronic invoices increased.
• Posti found new business by providing delivery services to Russia for Chinese
online stores.
• The economic problems in Russia became more severe, and the closing rate of the
ruble was down 12% year-on-year.

October–December
• Comparable net sales decreased. The decline
was due to falling volumes in domestic freight,
lower fuel surcharges due to the development
of oil prices, declining processing volumes
and fill rates in the warehousing business, and
the general economic situation.
• Significant improvement in the result,
particularly due to the divestment of
international freight operations.
Year 2015
• Net sales decreased, but the operating result before
non-recurring items turned to profit.
• The improved operating result was particularly
attributable to the divestment of international freight
operations, higher demand for parcel services, and
measures implemented by the Group to increase the
efficiency of production operations.

Outlook for 2016
Market environment
• The Group’s business is characterized by seasonality. Net sales and operating profit in the
business groups are not accrued evenly over the year. In postal services and consumer parcels,
the first and fourth quarters are typically strong, while the second and third quarters are weaker.
Net sales
• Comparable net sales in euros for 2016 are expected to decrease compared to 2015.
Operating result (EBIT)
• The Group’s operating result before non-recurring items is expected to improve from 2015.
There is significant uncertainty related to the development prospects of the result achieved in
Russia. The operating result for 2016 will continue to include significant non-recurring items.
The development of exchange rates, especially the ruble exchange rate, may affect the Group’s
net sales, result and balance sheet.
Capital expenditure
• Capital expenditure is expected to increase remarkably from 2015.
