CORRECTION TO LÄNNEN TEHTAAT'S IFRS COMPARISON DATA FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR 2004

The IFRS comparison data published by Lännen Tehtaat on April 27, 2005 included a
misstatement in the Q4/2004 and 2004 full year operating results of the Grain
Trading Division and the Other operations business segment. The misstatement in
the IFRS transition release causes a correction also to the 2004 full year
operating results by the business segments presented in the Q1 2005 interim
report as comparative information. The correction has no effect to the other
figures of the IFRS transition release nor the figures of the interim period for
Q1 2005.

The operating results by the business segments of the IFRS transition release and
the interim report for Q1 2005 have been presented in their corrected forms in
the following tables.
