Good afternoon, everyone. A warm welcome to Fortum’s webcast for the investor community and today’s announcement of the historical and very significant strategic partnership and long-term PPA that Fortum and Google have signed.

My name is Ingela Ulfves, and I’m heading Investor Relations at Fortum. As always, this event is being recorded, and you will find a replay on our website later today.

With me here in the studio, as you can see, is our President and CEO, Markus Rauramo. Markus will briefly present the key strategic highlights and what this partnership and PPA means for Fortum. And following the presentation, we will then take your questions. We have reserved approximately 30 minutes for this event.

So without further ado, I now hand over to Markus to start.

Markus Rauramo
President & CEO

Thank you very much, Ingela. A warm welcome to this call also from my side. Today, Fortum and Google have announced a historical long-term strategic partnership that represents much more than a commercial agreement. It’s a unique partnership that supports growth, competitiveness and long-term prosperity, not only for Fortum, but also for Finland.

This extensive strategic partnership with Google is deeply founded in our 2 main strategic priorities: to deliver reliable energy to

A “social supermarket” offering low cost groceries and budgeting advice says it has had 600 sign-ups in its first year.

The Dartford Larder in Kent opened in July 2025 and operates a subscription model, where members pay £4.50 to visit each week for essential items including unlimited fruit and vegetables.

The facility, on Copperfields Walk, is run by Crossways Community Church, the Healthy Living Centre and Dartford Borough Council.

The church’s pastor, Stephen Brindley, said organisers had “achieved what we intended to with the project, which was giving people back dignity”.

He told the Local Democracy Reporting Service that users had welcomed the subscription system as they felt they were “giving something in return for what they were getting”.

He said: “When we were a food bank, there were many people who would not come through the door because of the stigma which was attached.

“The supermarket takes a lot of that away because, at the end of the day, it looks and operates as a normal supermarket.”

More than 75,000 items have been distributed since the Dartford Larder opened, according to the pastor.

He added: “We’re just doing it from our heart and our passion and I think it’s had a really, really good impact.”

AUSTIN, TEXAS — Cultured dairy products manufacturer Good Culture has expanded its C-Suite leadership team. The additions include naming Kirk Jensen as chief operating officer, Samantha Famous as chief people officer, and Sofia Salvadore as chief of staff.

Famous and Salvadore were hired to their roles earlier this year, the company said.

Jensen brings more than two decades of operations leadership in packaged foods, the company said.

His experience includes working for such companies as The Honest Kitchen, most recently as COO; Sovos Brands as COO and chief supply chain officer; and chief supply chain officer at Snyder’s-Lance, Inc.

Famous previously was senior vice president of people at Modern Animal and held similar positions at companies such as The Wing, Sweetgreen and Blue Apron.

Most recently, Salvadore was a private equity associate at L Catterton and earlier was an investment banking analyst at Goldman Sachs.

“We spent this year building a leadership team that matches the size of the business we’ve become,” said Jesse Merrill, chief executive officer and co-founder of Good Culture. “Bringing on Kirk, Samantha, and Sofia is a deliberate investment in how we operate, how we grow our people, and how we execute. Together, they bring the leadership and expertise we need to support Good Culture’s next phase while staying true to what makes this brand special.”

Swindon, in Wiltshire, has been singled out in the government’s Defence Industrial Strategy

More than 1,000 jobs are set to be created in Swindon following a surge of investment in drone manufacturing in the town.

It comes a year after the government singled out Swindon as a key hub in its Defence Industrial Strategy.

The Wiltshire town has attracted a string of major global defence tech firms over the last couple of years and is also home to a vast new MoD facility that is being used for testing drones for warfare.

The 500,000 sq ft government site is based at Panattoni Park, which previously housed Honda’s car plant until it closed for good in 2021.

According to Swindon Borough Council, the site is four times larger than NATO’s tactical drone centre in Latvia and anchors the UK’s drone evaluation pipeline. It is expected to create hundreds of highly skilled technical roles.

Elsewhere, a military drone company backed by Donald Trump’s son opened a factory in the town earlier this year after securing a near-£2m deal to support UK defence activities.

It came after Portuguese-based Tekever – one of Europe’s top drone manufacturing enterprises – and German defence firm Stark set up sites in Swindon last year.

The Tekever hub alone is projected to support up to 1,000 skilled jobs across engineering, manufacturing and R&D when fully operational.

Other firms to establish a presence in Swindon include ICOMAT, Shadowlink, Xtend and MyDefence.

Councillor Gary Sumner, leader of Swindon Borough Council, said: “Twelve months ago, the government highlighted Swindon as a vital driver of UK defence innovation. Today, we can see the real, tangible impact of that vision right across our town.”

He added: “This isn’t just about major facilities, it’s about delivering high-value, well-paid, skilled jobs for local people in an industry that is critical to our national resilience and future prosperity.”

The council says it is “well placed” to secure further investment and create hundreds more skilled jobs in the years ahead.

Swindon North MP Will Stone MP added: “We have worked well together to reorient the town away from original plans toward high-skilled roles in defence.

“It has been great to take the lead on meeting with hundreds of companies, bringing in new companies like Tekever and Stark and working to find suitable locations for them to set up.

“I’m also privileged to have led efforts alongside Brigadier Stu Nasse to bring the MoD indoor drone testing facility to our town and brought interest from across industry and government to Swindon.”
