Revised data for July 2018 will be published at 9 am on 10 October 2018 in connection with the release of industrial output data for August 2018. The revision is influenced by the estimation used in the latest release, which concerns the Tax Administration's data on self-assessed taxes used for enterprises with fewer than 50 employees. Because of the method used, seasonally adjusted figures for previous months may change even if the original figures do not become revised. The seasonally adjusted figures will also be adjusted for working days.
