Hanna Jaakkola
Vice President of Investor Relations
Dear all, warmly welcome virtually to Helsinki, and thank you for tuning in for Kesko’s Q1 2026 Release Call. Strong sales and profit in all divisions is our headline. So a good start for the year despite turbulent times.
We have the familiar agenda. First, President and CEO, Jorma Rauhala, will give the presentation. After the presentation, we are happy to take questions from you. We have here with us our business division presidents, Ari Akseli for grocery trade; Sami Kiiski for building and technical trade; Johanna Ali for car trade; as well as CFO, Anu Hamalainen.
The questions can be asked both by phone and via chat function after the presentation. All the materials related to the quarter can be found at our web page, kesko.fi, under Investors. My name is Hanna Jaakkola. I’m responsible for IR at Kesko. I will be happy to have a discussion and answer your follow-up questions after the presentation.
But now, without further ado, Jorma, the virtual stage is yours, please.
Jorma Rauhala
President, CEO & Member of Group Management Board
Thank you, Hanna. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome also on
