CARGOTEC CORPORATION, STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE, 22 JANUARY 2013 AT 9.00 A.M. (EET)


Cargotec initiated several restructuring measures during the second half of
2012. As a consequence, Cargotec announced in October 2012 that it starts
employee cooperation negotiations concerning the entire personnel aiming at
adjusting Cargotec's operations to the new business-driven operating model and
improving profitability. In addition, cooperation negotiations were announced
during the fourth quarter of 2012 in Lidhult and Hudiksvall, Sweden. These
actions aim to improve operational efficiency, profitability and to ensure long-
term competitiveness in global markets.

Majority of the negotiations have been concluded. Cargotec will book EUR 26
million in non-recurring restructuring costs in the fourth quarter of 2012, of
which approximately EUR 19 million impacts cash flow. Non-recurring
restructuring costs booked in 2012 total EUR 26 million. Cargotec estimates that
the measures taken result in approximately EUR 30 million cost savings for the
year 2013.
