The new PALFINGER organisational structure was implemented as of the beginning of 2010. Having achieved the diversification aimed at – cranes currently contribute approximately 50 percent to revenues – PALFINGER will henceforth pay increased attention to internationalisation in order to ensure a well-balanced diversification on a regional level as well in the long run. Increased independence of the European business units and the areas outside Europe has been introduced with the goal of helping the Group to be even better prepared to meet the requirements of the respective markets. The management and control structure was adjusted accordingly, which is also reflected in the segment reporting with figures being broken down into EUROPEAN UNITS and AREA UNITS as well as VENTURES. In order to make comparisons possible, the figures from the previous year were adjusted accordingly.
