The following is excerpted from the question-and-answer section of the transcript.

Question: Svante Krokfors - Nordea Markets, Research Division - Analyst : Thank you for the presentation. Regarding the situation now with the consumer confidence, investors being more cautious now. Perhaps first on the consumer. So how do you really look at startups with prices still at or input prices still at the elevated level and the consumer confidence taking a big hit. How do you -- do you want to comment anything about the startups?

Question: Svante Krokfors - Nordea Markets, Research Division - Analyst : Okay. And how -- I mean, how does the situation in the CEE countries look when it comes to the consumer side and perhaps investor side also? Is there any changes that differ from Finland? I mean, obviously, the vicinity to the crisis area is one thing, but any other issues?

Question: Svante Krokfors - Nordea Markets, Research Division - Analyst : Okay. That's very helpful. Then on Business Premises and Infra, have you seen any shift in demand between public and private customers?

Question: Svante Krokfors - Nordea Markets, Research Division - Analyst : Okay. And then perhaps last one on the investor sentiment in Finland when it comes to perhaps residentials, mainly. I guess there has been some larger portfolios in the market for some time now, and it seems like the spread has increased quite significantly because no deals have closed. So how do you put this into perspective for you? And do you believe that kind of the quality and the fact that you sell new apartments as a big advantage in that?
