Nurminen Logistics Plc                            Stock Exchange Release 11 September 2015 at 9:00 a.m.

Nurminen Logistics Plc has concluded an agreement for selling Nurminen Logistics Heavy Oy’s shares to Transport Company Ville Silvasti Oy. Senior Vice President of Nurminen Logistics responsible for Special Transports and Projects and a member of Management Team, Hannu Vuorinen will stay in Nurminen Logistics Heavy in the transaction. The project business that earlier belonged to Nurminen Logistics Heavy will remain with Nurminen Logistics. No changes will be made to the ownership of the handling hall for heavy goods at Vuosaari terminal either, but the hall will remain in the ownership of Nurminen Logistics.

This arrangement will strengthen Nurminen Logistics’ financial structure, clarify company’s service offering and provide even better opportunities for developing core business operations. In future, we will focus on providing forwarding, terminal and value added services in Finland’s most important import and export ports and border-crossing points, on railway logistics in Finland, Russia and CIS area and on project transport business.

Nurminen Logistics Heavy will move into the possession of Transport Company Ville Silvasti on 1 October 2015. With the transaction, Ville Silvasti will become the largest company in Finland to offer special transport services. The transaction has no significant impact on Nurminen Logistics’ result in 2015.
