Veikkaus’ financial profit for the period from January to June (EUR 330.2 million) remained at the level of the respective period in 2020 (-0.8%). The restrictions and special arrangements due to the coronavirus pandemic, as well as the sustainability measures we have decided to take are estimated to have a major impact on Veikkaus’ financial profit for the whole year. As a result, we do not consider it possible that we could achieve the projected profit of EUR 778 million, which has been recorded in the State budget.
