The first three months of the year were characterised by gradually
decreasing Nord Pool power prices after the record high levels
around the year-end, staying, however, clearly above the prices
during the corresponding period in 2002. The international
refining margin was also very high during the first quarter,
whereas the price of crude oil started to fall sharply in mid-
March.
In January, Fortum took important strategic steps in Norway and
north-western Russia by agreeing with E.ON AG on a swap of power
assets. The disposal of the Norwegian oil and gas assets was
completed in early March.
During the first quarter of the year, the integration of Birka
Energi progressed as planned. The synergy benefits achieved during
the first quarter exceeded EUR 30 million.
The Groups quarterly financial performance was strong and cash
flow continued to be at a good level. Net debt further decreased
by 1.2 billion and gearing was at 63%, well below the target level
of 70%. During the last 12 months, the net debt has decreased by
EUR 2.5 billion.
Net sales and results
Group net sales stood at EUR 3,593 (2,571) million. The main
reason for the increase was higher market prices for electricity
and petroleum products.
Group operating profit totalled EUR 475 (327) million. The
operating profit excluding non-recurring items, EUR 471 (237)
million, improved by EUR 234 million compared to the corresponding
period in 2002. The net amount of non-recurring items was EUR 4
(90) million.
Electricity and heat sales volumes increased. This together with
higher electricity prices resulted in a significant improvement in
the results of the Power, Heat and Gas segment. The contribution
of the Service business was at the previous years level.
The results for the Markets segment were negative due to the poor
performance of the sales of electricity. The results for the sales
of heating oil developed positively.
The international oil refining margins were markedly higher than a
year ago, significantly improving the results for Oil Refining and
Marketing. The Shipping business enjoyed higher freight rates
mainly because of heavy ice conditions.
Profit before taxes was EUR 410 (269) million.
The Group´s net financial expenses were EUR 65 (58) million.
Minority interests accounted for EUR 33 (22) million. These were
mainly attributable to the preference shares issued by Fortum
Capital Ltd in 2000 and to Fortum Värme Holding, in which the City
of Stockholm has a 50% economic interest.
Taxes for the period totalled EUR 107 (65) million.
Net profit for the period was EUR 270 (182) million. Earnings per
share were EUR 0.32 (0.21). Return on capital employed was 15.6%
(8.8%) and return on shareholders´ equity was 16.5% (8.5%).
SEGMENT REVIEWS
Power, Heat and Gas
The main business area comprises power and heat generation and
sales as well as gas operations in the Nordic countries and other
parts of the Baltic Rim. The Service business (former Fortum
Energy Solutions) is included in this segment as from 1 January
2003.

Despite the slightly colder-than-normal temperatures, electricity
consumption in the Nordic countries remained at the previous
years level and was 111 (112) terawatt-hours (TWh) during the
period from January to March. Consumption in Finland increased by
6%, however. In Sweden, the consumption was at the previous years
level. Consumption in Norway decreased due to lower industrial
consumption, caused by exceptionally high electricity prices and
increased use of heating oil. Fortums sales in the Nordic
countries amounted to 17.3 (13.1) TWh in total and represented
approximately 16% (12%) of total Nordic electricity consumption in
the period from January to March. Sales outside the Nordic
countries totalled 0.7 (2.2) TWh.
During the period from January to March, the average price of
electricity on the Nordic power exchange Nord Pool was 53.3 (21.2)
EUR/MWh, which is 152% higher than the corresponding figure for
2002 and 7% up on the last quarter of 2002. The high price was due
to a significantly dryer-than-normal period, with low temperatures
starting already in the fall of 2002 and leading to low hydro
reservoir levels and hydro power production.
The average price of electricity sold by Fortum in the Nordic
countries was up 49% on the corresponding period last year and up
27% compared to the last quarter of 2002.
Fortums own power generation in the Nordic countries during
January to March was 14.8 (11.4) TWh, of which about 4.1 (4.9) TWh
or 28% (43%) was hydropower-based and 6.7 (5.4) TWh or 45% (48%)
nuclear power-based. Due to low hydro power availability thermal
power production went up to 4.0 (1.1) TWh and its share of own
production increased to 27% (9%).
Fortum Service refocused its strategy to operation and maintenance
services in the Nordic area and selected international markets.

The Markets business unit buys its electricity and heating oil at
market terms.
The market environment was characterised by cold weather and a
steep increase in the market price of electricity in the fourth
quarter in 2002. The cold season around the turn of the year
resulted in an unpredicted growth in electricity sales volumes. As
a consequence, the procurement and sales portfolios were not
properly hedged, leading to a negative impact on results. Although
sales prices were increased, it was not enough to secure a
positive operating profit.
Electricity sales totalled 9.3 (7.7) TWh during the period. The
effect on electricity sales volumes of the change in Birka Energi
ownership was 1.9 TWh during the period from January to February.
Sales of heating oil amounted to 0.3 (0.3) million tonnes.
Oil Refining and Marketing
The activities cover the refining and marketing of oil as well as
logistics. The main products are traffic fuels and heating oils.

Throughout the first quarter, the international refining margin in
north-western Europe (Brent Complex) was considerably higher than
during the previous year, on average USD 3.8/bbl (-0.2/bbl). At
its highest, the refining margin increased to almost USD 7/bbl.
Fortums premium margin continued to be on average about USD 2/bbl
above the international reference margin.
The price of Brent crude averaged USD 31.5/bbl (21.1/bbl).
However, at the end of the period under review, it went down
considerably. The inventory gains during the period from January
to March were EUR 3 (20) million.
Fortum refined a total of 3.2 (3.2) million tonnes of crude oil
and other feedstocks. Some 1.9 (1.9) million tonnes of petroleum
products were sold in Finland. Exports amounted to 1.2 (1.2)
million tonnes. The retail sale volumes in Finland increased
slightly.
Shipping freight rates were exceptionally high due to the
difficult ice conditions and volatility in international oil
markets. In January, the second super ice-class crude oil carrier
Mastera was delivered to Fortum.
The new iso-octane production plant in Edmonton, Canada, was in
full production and regular customer deliveries were made to
California.
Following the sale of the oil and gas production assets in Norway
and Oman, Fortum will not have any production of its own during
the first half of 2003. Preparations to start production at the
South Shapkino field in north-western Russia towards the end of
2003 continued as planned. Fortums share of the exploitable oil
reserves in this oil field, which is owned fifty-fifty by Fortum
and the Russian Lukoil, have been estimated at approximately 82
million barrels.

Business development and restructuring
In January, Fortum and E.ON AG agreed on a swap of power assets.
Fortum acquired assets in Norway and north-western Russia and sold
some non-core assets in Ireland, Germany and southern Sweden. The
transactions will substantially strengthen Fortum´s position in
its focus area, the Nordic countries and the rest of the Baltic
Rim.
9.5% of the shares in the Russian Lenenergo were transferred to
Fortum on 31 March 2003. The purchase price was EUR 25 million.
Fortum now owns 15.9% of the share capital and 18.6% of the voting
rights. The shares in the Norwegian Hafslund ASA were transferred
to Fortum on 10 April 2003. Fortum owns 21.4% of the share capital
and 26.4% of the voting rights. The purchase price was EUR 155
million. All remaining transactions are progressing well and are
expected to be completed by the end of June, subject to authority
approvals.
The disposal of the Norwegian E&P assets was completed in early
March. The financial impact of the transaction was included in
Fortum´s 2002 annual closing.
Investments and financing
Investments in fixed assets during the first quarter totalled EUR
112 (3,704) million.
At the end of the period, interest-bearing net debt stood at EUR
4,624 million. The gearing ratio at the end of March was 63% (80%
at the end of 2002).
Group net financial expenses were EUR 65 (58) million.
In February, Fortum Corporation established a bond programme
(Medium Term Note Programme) of SEK 7.0 billion for the purpose of
enabling the issue of bonds on the Swedish capital markets in
Swedish krona and euro. The programme replaces the SEK 7.0 billion
programme in the name of Fortum Power and Heat AB.
In April, Fortum Corporation signed a EUR 1.2 billion revolving
credit facility. This five-year facility is for general corporate
purposes and replaces existing syndicated facilities established
by various subsidiaries.
Shares and shareholdings
A total of 15,600 Fortum Corporation shares were subscribed for
with the share warrants relating to Fortum Corporations 1999
warrant bond to employees. The increase in the share capital
resulting from the share subscriptions, a total of EUR 53,040.00
was entered in the trade register on 20 February 2003. After the
increase, Fortum Corporations share capital is EUR 2,875,636,887
and the total number of shares is 845,775,555.
Annual General Meeting
At the Annual General Meeting held on 27 March 2003, a dividend of
EUR 0.31 (0.26) per share was approved.
The following persons were re-appointed as members of the
Supervisory Board: Klaus Hellberg, Rakel Hiltunen, Harri Holkeri,
Jorma Huuhtanen, Mikko Immonen, Kimmo Kalela, Tanja Karpela, Leena
Luhtanen, Matti Vanhanen and Ben Zyskowicz. Satu Hassi, Kalevi
Lamminen and Juha Mikkilä were elected as new members. Leena
Luhtanen was re-elected as Chairman and Ben Zyskowicz as Deputy
Chairman of the Supervisory Board.
PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy, Authorised Public Accountants, were re-
appointed as auditors.
Group personnel
The average number of employees in the Group during the period
from January to March was 12,733 (13,710). The number of employees
at the end of the period was 12,645 (13,670 at the end of 2002).
The reduction is mainly attributable to the formation of the new
associated company Enprima at the beginning of this year.
Group management
Christian Lundberg was appointed President of Fortum Markets and
member of the Corporate Executive Committee as of 1 February 2003.
Outlook
The key market drivers influencing Fortum´s performance are the
market price of electricity and the international oil refining
margin. Other important market drivers are the price of crude oil,
the exchange rates of the US dollar and the Swedish krona.
According to general market information, electricity consumption
in the Nordic countries is predicted to increase by about 12%
each year over the next years. During the first quarter of 2003,
the average spot price for electricity was EUR 53.3 per megawatt-
hour on the Nordic electricity market, or 152% higher than the
corresponding figure for 2002. At the beginning of April 2003, the
spot price was in the range of EUR 29 - 36 per megawatt-hour. The
electricity forwards for the rest of 2003 in mid-April were in the
range of EUR 31 32 per megawatt-hour.
The synergy benefits generated by the creation of a pan-Nordic
power and heat business following the acquisition of the remaining
50% of the former Birka Energi will exceed the target of EUR 100
million a year as of 2004. All transactions relating to the power
asset swap with E.ON are expected to be completed by the end of
the second quarter, subject to authority approvals. The
transactions are expected to be earnings neutral in 2003.
The continuous operations of the power and heat businesses usually
result in a significantly better performance in the first and last
quarter of the year than in the second and third quarter.
The international refining margin in north-western Europe (Brent
Complex) was considerably higher than at the beginning of 2002 and
averaged USD 3.8/bbl (USD -0.2/bbl) during the period from January
to March. In April 2003, the international refining margin has
been averaging USD 3.3/bbl. For several years, the international
Brent Complex refining margin has averaged USD 1.5 2.0/bbl. The
management expects Fortums premium margin to remain at the strong
levels of previous years. During 2003, no major maintenance
shutdowns are planned at the refineries.
The average price for Brent crude oil was USD 31.5/bbl in January-
March 2003. On 31 March, it was USD 28.1/bbl. In April 2003, the
price has been averaging USD 25.4/bbl while the International
Petroleum Exchanges Brent futures for the remainder of 2003 have
been averaging USD 24.6/bbl. The price of crude oil has an impact
on the results of Oil Refining and Marketing through inventory
gains and losses.
The exceptionally high freight rates in the first quarter have
weakened towards the summer.
Due to the disposals of the oil and gas production assets in Oman
and Norway, there will be no own production in the first half of
2003. Preparations for the start of oil production in late 2003 at
the South Shapkino oil field in north-western Russia are
continuing as planned.

The fair values of derivative contracts subject to public trading are
based on market prices as of the balance sheet date. The fair values of
other derivatives are based on the present value of cash flows
resulting from the contracts, and, in respect of options, on
evaluation models. The amounts also include unsettled closed positions.
Derivative contracts are mainly used to manage the group's currency,
interest rate and price risk.
