Result
The interim report has been produced in accordance with the recognition
and valuation principles of the International Financial Reporting
Standards. In drafting its interim report, Componenta has applied the
same accounting principles as with the 2005 Financial Statements. The

Componenta Group made an operating profit of EUR 5.3 (3.9) million and
the result after financial items was EUR 3.1 (1.8) million. The Cast
Components business group had an operating profit of
EUR 5.0 (2.3) million and other operations recorded an operating profit
of EUR 0.3 (1.6) million. The Group had no one-time items during
the first quarter.

The consolidated result after financial items improved from the previous
year mainly due to enhanced efficiency in the operations of the Cast
Components business group. The operating losses recorded by the Karkkila
foundry and the Heerlen furan foundry continued to weaken
Cast Components' operating profit. Steel scrap prices stabilized in
the first part of the year.
Income taxes were EUR -0.9 (-0.3) million.
The earnings per share were EUR 0.23 (0.14).
The return on investment was 11.5% (8.3%) and return on
equity 17.9% (10.7%).

On 31 March 2006 Componenta Corporation had outstanding capital notes and
convertible bonds with a combined value of EUR 34.7 million, as defined
in IFRS. In March the Group repaid EUR 3.2 million, or 10%, of the
principal of the preferred capital notes in accordance with the terms for
the notes.
The Group had EUR 60.0 million in non-utilised long-term credit
facilities at the end of the review period. In addition, the Group has a
EUR 60.0 million commercial paper programme. The Group's interest-
bearing net debt, excluding the EUR 34.7 million in outstanding capital
notes, totalled EUR 107.9 (114.5) million. Net gearing, including the
capital notes in shareholders' equity, was 125% (125%).
Componenta is making more effective use of capital with a programme to
sell its sales receivables. Under this arrangement, some of the sales
receivables are sold without any right of recourse. By 31 March 2006 the
company had sold sales receivables totalling EUR 25.4 (18.8) million.
The cash flow from operations during the review period was
EUR 4.6 (-0.6) million, and of this the change in net working capital
was EUR -6.5 (-8.9) million. The cash flow from investments was
EUR 1.4 (-5.4) million.
The Group's equity ratio was 18.9% (19.6%) and the equity ratio,
including capital notes in shareholders' equity, was 31.6% (33.0%).
Performance of business groups
The organizational structure of Componenta Group was altered on
1 November 2005 and the Group's production units were organized into three
business divisions Foundries, Machine Shops and Heavy Components.
Together these form the Cast Components business segment. Other Business
comprises the Wirsbo forges, associated companies, the Group's support
functions and service companies, and divested business.
Foundries
The Foundries division contains the Group's foundries in Karkkila, Pori,
Pietarsaari and Weert as well as the HWS business unit at the Heerlen
foundry. The division had net sales in the first quarter of
EUR 45.9 (45.0) million and an operating profit of EUR 3.3 (1.5) million.
The division's operating profit improved from the previous year
mainly due to raising efficiency in operations. The Karkkila foundry
recorded an operating loss in the first quarter of EUR -1.8 (-1.7) million.
The programme to stabilize and enhance operations underway at Karkkila is
expected to reduce the unit's operating loss in the current year from the
previous year.
Machine Shops
The Machine Shops division consists of the Främmestad, Åmål and Albin
machine shops in Sweden, the machine shops in Pori and Pietarsaari in
Finland, and the machine shop functions in the Netherlands.
The division had net sales in January March of
EUR 40.3 (36.8) million and an operating profit of EUR 2.6 (1.8) million.
The investments carried out in 2004 and 2005 increased the division's
sales and improved the efficiency of its operations.
Heavy Components
The Heavy Components division contains the Group's furan foundries in
Iisalmi, Finland and Heerlen, the Netherlands, and the machine shops
Componenta Nisamo in Lempäälä and Componenta Pistons in Pietarsaari. The
division had net sales in January March of EUR 13.9 (10.5) million and
an operating loss of EUR -0.1 (-0.9) million. The division's operating
loss declined from the previous year mainly due to the growth in sales
and the improved efficiency in the operations of the Heerlen furan
foundry. The Heerlen furan foundry made an operating loss in the first
quarter of EUR -0.8 (1.3) million. The programme to stabilize and enhance
operations at the unit is expected to continue to reduce the Heerlen
furan foundry's operating loss during the current year.
Other Business
Other Business had net sales in January - March of
EUR 12.6 (14.6) million and an operating profit of EUR 0.3 (1.6) million.
Sales by the Wirsbo forges fell 15% from the previous year to
EUR 12.1 million and the operating profit declined from the previous year
in consequence of the lower sales. Componenta's share of the result
of the associated companies was EUR 0.2 (0.6) million. Associated
company Ulefos NV recorded net sales of EUR 8.0 (8.6) million and
profit after financial items of EUR 0.5 (0.8) million. The cold winter
with much snow in the Nordic countries had a seasonal impact on Ulefos,
which manufactures manhole covers, reducing sales and profit.

Finland, 26% (25%) in the Netherlands and 27% (28%) in Sweden.
Prospects
Componenta's prospects in 2006 are based on general external financial
indicators, order forecasts given by customers, and on Componenta's order
intake and order book.
Demand for heavy truck components in the first quarter of 2006 fell short
of the corresponding period in the previous year. The introduction of new
environmental standards in Europe on 1 October 2006 coupled with improved
economic prospects will increase demand for heavy trucks in Europe at
least in the short term. Demand for components from the off-road and
power and transmission industries and from machinery and equipment
manufacturers increased in the first quarter from the corresponding
period in the previous year.
The technical aspects of the investments carried out in 2004 and 2005 at
Karkkila in Finland, Heerlen in the Netherlands and Främmestad in Sweden
were completed last year. Running in the investments operationally at
Karkkila and Heerlen continues during 2006. The goal is to reduce the
operating losses at these units during 2006 and to achieve an operating
profit at the Karkkila and Heerlen units in 2007.
Componenta's order book at the end of the first quarter of 2006 stood at
the same level as in the corresponding period in the previous year and
was higher than at the end of 2005. Componenta's net sales and result
after financial items, excluding one-time items, for the second quarter
of 2006 are forecast to be at the same level as in the corresponding
period of the previous year.
