Furniture Division
The nine-month net sales of Viisnurk AS Furniture Division were 89.6 mil. kroons
(5.7 mil. euros) and the economic result 4.4 mil. kroons (281 thousand euros) as
a profit. Compared to the same period last year, the turnover of the division has
decreased by 29.5 mil. kroons (1.9 mil. euros) but the profit has increased by 1
mil. kroons (68 thousand euros). The division finished the 3rd quarter with a
profit of 1.3 mil. kroons (82 thousand euros).
The current situation of the furniture division corresponds to the plan. The
division has a stable client portfolio and a considerably improved cost structure
that enables to earn profit even in case of reduced sales volumes. Today Viisnurk
AS is finishing restructuring the product portfolio, which means that the company
will stop co-operation with customers of lower profitability and unprofitable
customers, in addition to that contracts with new clients to gradually increase
the volume of production and sales during the year 2006 have been concluded.
The Furniture Division continues the implementation of development plans related
to increasing the percentage of sale of the division's own products and expanding
the retail business of furniture. Among the division's own products the new
product line of pine was successfully introduced at Barntrup furniture fair in
Germany; within the project for expanding the retail business, preparations were
made for opening a furniture store of the subsidiary Skano OÜ in Riga in November
this year. This will be the third retail store of the Furniture Division in
addition to Pärnu and Tallinn.
Skano is the trademark for own brands of the Furniture Division of Viisnurk AS
and the retail furniture stores of the enterprise bare the same name.
Building Materials Division
The nine-month net sales of the Building Materials Division amounted to 76.1 mil.
kroons (4.9 mil. euros) and profit to 11 mil. kroons (705 thousand euros). Last
year, the turnover of the division totalled 73.1 mil. kroons (4.7 mil. euros) and
the profit 15 mil. kroons (958 thousand euros) within the same period.
The drop in the profitability of the division is due to some stiffening of
competition of one of our main products - building boards - both in Estonia and
in other target markets. In previous periods, the fibreboard producers in Europe
have significantly raised their production capacity and this has caused temporary
increase in the stock of the producers. For restoring profitability the Building
Materials Division will continue taking measures to increase the output of Isotex
interior finishing boards of higher margin by entering new markets in the
neighbourhood in Sweden, Ukraine and Russia and by actively developing products
and technology.
The divisions of Viisnurk AS that were closed in 2004 resulted in a loss of 1.5
mil. kroons (93 thousand euros) during the first nine months of 2005. This was
mainly due to the storage of the divisions' assets prior to sales and costs
related to the sales process.
