Fortum's President and CEO Tapio Kuula on the January-September 2010 results:
“Fortum has had a stable three quarters in 2010. The Heat and Russia divisions
as well as the Distribution business area were able to clearly improve their
profits from a year ago. Electricity Sales had a poor first quarter, but
achieved better results in the second and third quarters. The Power Division's
financial results were clearly below last year's level, mainly due to continued
power upgrade and modernisation programmes in Swedish associated nuclear
generating companies. This resulted in increased power procurement costs in the
Power Division.
In the third quarter all divisions, except Power, had better results compared to
the same period last year.
The overall Nordic and Russian power consumption figures continued to increase
in 2010 from last year. Industrial activity has clearly picked up in Fortum's
key market areas and the Russian economy has sustained its fast path of
recovery.
The Russian wholesale power sector reform is progressing. Starting 1 July 2010,
80% of all produced power in Russia was sold on the competitive market. The
wholesale power market is expected to be fully liberalised from the beginning of
2011. An agreement on the Russian capacity market rules has been reached and the
new regulation is expected to significantly increase payments for new capacity
under the Government's Capacity Supply Agreement. Recovering electricity demand
and the development of the capacity market has prompted Fortum to slightly
adjust the schedule of its Russian investment programme, now to be finalised one
year earlier than previously estimated.
In August 2010, the Supreme Administrative Court in Finland overruled an appeal
by the Finnish Competition Authority concerning Fortum's market position. In its
ruling, the Supreme Administrative Court concluded that Fortum cannot be
considered to have a dominant position in the power generation and wholesale
market, because the relevant geographical market area consists of at least
Finland and Sweden.
Strategy development and financial targets
At our Capital Markets Day in September, we presented Fortum's strategy. The
strategy builds on our core competence in CO2-free nuclear and hydro power,
resource-efficient combined heat and power production as well as the company's
expertise in operating in competitive energy markets. In the coming years, we
will continue to leverage our strong position in the Nordic power and heat
market while creating solid earnings growth in Russia. An integration of the
European energy market and Russian business' increasing weight will gradually
decrease the importance of the Nordic power price as the main driver of Fortum's
earnings.
Further opportunities for future growth stem from the need for CO2-free and
energy-efficient solutions, and increasing demand in fast-growing, liberalising
energy markets. Fortum's existing electricity distribution and retail sales
businesses will continue to have a substantial role in the Nordic market.
I would like to underline competitiveness as the key to value creation: I
believe that our core competences provide a solid basis for the future value
creation for Fortum. We are preparing for growth, which I see as taking place
through the right balance of faster returning acquisitions and slower returning
greenfield investments. In the long run, positions taken and the solutions
applied have to be financially sound on their own merits; basing decisions on a
continuous high level of subsidies is not sustainable.
At the Capital Markets Day we also announced that we have adjusted our financial
targets, net debt to EBITDA target is now ~3; previously the target was between
3 and 3.5.
Fortum's dividend policy remained unchanged. Fortum aims to pay a dividend which
corresponds to an average payout ratio of 50% to 60%. I would like to reiterate
that continuously providing an attractive dividend to investors is an integral
part of Fortum's way of thinking - the dividend payment is not a residual."

January-September
Group sales were EUR 4,394 (3,872) million. Group operating profit totalled EUR
1,387 (1,260) million. Comparable operating profit totalled EUR 1,292 (1,318)
million.
Non-recurring items, mark-to-market effects and nuclear fund adjustments in the
first three quarters of the year amounted to EUR 95 (-58) million. Out of this,
the share of non-recurring items was EUR 86 (21) million and consisted of sales
gains from the Swedegas and Karlskoga Energi & Miljö shares in Sweden as well as
the Kurgan Generating Company, Federal Grid Company and St. Petersburg Sales
Company shares in Russia.
The average SEK rate was approximately 10% higher in the first nine months of
2010 than in the first nine months of 2009. The positive translation effect
caused by the higher average SEK rate was approximately EUR 70 million in the
comparable operating profit compared to last year, the bulk of which was in
Power Division and in the first quarter of the year.
The share of profits/losses of associates and joint ventures was EUR 41 (-1)
million. The improvement from last year was mainly due to the improvement in the
contribution from Hafslund ASA.
The Group's net financial expenses decreased to EUR 98 (128) million. The
decrease is attributable to lower interest expenses. The change in fair value of
financial instruments was EUR 20 (5) million.
Profit before taxes was EUR 1,330 (1,131) million.
Taxes for the period totalled EUR 236 (211) million. The tax rate according to
the income statement was 17.7% (18.7%).
The profit for the period was EUR 1,094 (920) million. Fortum's earnings per
share were EUR 1.20 (1.02).
Non-controlling (minority) interests amounted to EUR 25 (14) million. These are
mainly attributable to Fortum Värme Holding AB, in which the city of Stockholm
has a 50% economic interest.
The return on capital employed was 12.9% for the last twelve months (12.1% in
2009), and the return on shareholders' equity was 17.9% for the last twelve
months (16.0% in 2009).
Cash flow from operating activities was affected by the realised foreign
exchange gains and losses, which were EUR -394 (356) million during the first
three quarters of 2010. The foreign exchange gains and losses mainly relate to
the roll over of foreign exchange contracts hedging loans to Fortum's Swedish
subsidiaries.
Fortum's net debt to EBITDA for the last twelve months was 2.7 (2.6 at the end
of 2009).
Market conditions
Nordic countries
During the third quarter, the average system spot price for power in Nord Pool
was EUR 45.9 (31.3) per megawatt-hour (MWh). The Finnish and Swedish area prices
were above the system price level, at EUR 47.7 (35.6) per MWh in Finland and EUR
46.7 (35.4) per MWh in Sweden. The difference between the system price and the
Finnish and Swedish area prices was mainly due to congestion between Sweden and
Southern Norway.
In January-September 2010, the average system spot price for power in Nord Pool
was EUR 50.0 (34.5) per MWh. The Finnish and Swedish area prices were above the
system price level, at EUR 53.3 (36.0) per MWh in Finland and EUR 53.5 (36.0)
per MWh in Sweden. The difference between the system price and the Finnish and
Swedish area prices was mainly related to the two days in the first quarter when
transmission capacity between Norway and Sweden was considerably below normal.
Year 2010 started with the Nordic water reservoirs at 7 terawatt-hours (TWh)
below the long-term average. At the end of the third quarter, the Nordic water
reservoirs were 17 TWh below the long-term average and 18 TWh below the
corresponding level last year.
According to preliminary statistics, the Nordic countries consumed 78 (76) TWh
of electricity in the third quarter of 2010, about 3% more than in the previous
year. The increase was mainly due to higher industrial consumption. During the
first three quarters of 2010, the Nordic countries consumed about 282 (268) TWh.
The increase is mainly due to the cold weather in the first quarter and higher
industrial consumption.
Russia
According to preliminary statistics, Russia consumed 223 (212) TWh of
electricity in the third quarter of 2010, about 5% more than in the
corresponding period of the previous year. During the first three quarters of
the year, Russia consumed about 729 (693) TWh. The increase is mainly due to the
general recovery of the Russian economy and increased industrial activity.
OAO Fortum operates in the Tyumen and Chelyabinsk areas. In the Tyumen area,
where industrial production is dominated by the oil and gas industries,
electricity demand was approximately at the same level compared to the previous
year. The recession did not affect electricity demand in the Tyumen region in
the previous year. In the Chelyabinsk area, which is dominated by the metal
industry, electricity demand increased by about 8% in the third quarter compared
to the previous year. The increase is mainly due to the recovery in industrial
consumption.
The average electricity spot price, excluding capacity price, in the First price
zone (European and Urals part of Russia) increased 36% to RUB 975 (715) per MWh
in the third quarter of 2010.
More detailed information about the market fundamentals is included in the
tables at the end of the report.
Fortum's CO2 emissions
During the first three quarters of 2010, approximately 67% (69%) of the power
generated by Fortum was CO2 free. The corresponding figure for Fortum's
generation within the EU was 87% (92%).
Fortum's total CO2 emissions during the first three quarters of the year
amounted to 17.4 (15.4) million tonnes (Mt), of which 6.7 (5.0) Mt were within
the EU's emission trading scheme (ETS).
Fortum's target in the EU is to decrease its emissions in power generation to
less than 80 grams per kilowatt-hour (g/kWh) by 2020 as a five-year average.
After the first three quarters of 2010 the five-year average performance is
below the target level at 64 g/kWh. In heat production, Fortum aims at reducing
the specific emissions in each EU country by at least 10% from 2006 until 2020.
Outside the EU, Fortum is committed to increasing energy efficiency and thereby
reducing specific emissions.

The division's power generation during the third quarter of 2010 amounted to
10.5 (9.7) TWh in the Nordic countries. Approximately 95% (96%) of that was
CO2-free.
In January-September, the division's power generation in the Nordic countries
was 34.0 (32.6) TWh and approximately 94% (97%) of the division's power
generation was CO2-free.
During the third quarter, the division's power generation in the Nordic
countries increased by 8% compared to the same period last year. Nuclear
generation volumes increased year-on-year although Oskarshamn 3 and Forsmark 2
had operating difficulties and Loviisa had a longer scheduled annual outage. The
share of thermal power generation was insignificant.
During the first three quarters of 2010, Nordic power generation was 1.4 TWh
higher than in the corresponding period last year. Increased thermal generation
and improved nuclear generation volumes were partly offset by lower hydro
volumes.
Oskarshamn 3 is under the annual re-fuelling outage and turbine investigation.
Its forecasted start-up is on 8 November 2010. To secure availability during the
winter months, the plan is to run the unit at an approximately 1,100-MW power
level, which corresponds to the power level before the capacity increase. The
commissioning test runs on the increased power level will re-start on 1 March
2011. Forsmark 2 has been running at significantly reduced capacity after the
capacity increase modifications. The unit is currently in outage, and the
actions to recover the power production are ongoing. Full power is estimated to
be reached on 18 November 2010.

* For the Power Division in the Nordic countries, excluding pass-through sales.
The Power Division's achieved Nordic power price in the third quarter of 2010
amounted to EUR 47.2 per MWh, which was EUR 3.0 per MWh lower than last year.
The decrease was due to lower hedge prices during the third quarter. Nord Pool
spot prices were higher than in 2009.
In January-September 2010, the division's achieved Nordic power price was EUR
49.0 per MWh, which is EUR 0.2 per MWh lower than same period last year. The
decrease was due to lower hedge prices. Nord Pool spot prices were higher.
In the third quarter of 2010, Power's comparable operating profit was lower than
in the corresponding period last year. This was mainly due to the clearly lower
achieved power price and the higher costs in associated nuclear generating
companies partly offset by higher generation volumes.
In the first three quarters of 2010, Power's comparable operating profit was
lower than in the corresponding period last year. The decline in the division's
profits stemmed from the lower achieved power price and continued power upgrade
and modernisation programmes in Swedish associated nuclear generating companies.
The costs of associated nuclear generating companies increased due to the
ongoing Oskarshamn 3 and Forsmark 2 power upgrade and modernisation programmes.
Furthermore, an increase in nuclear-related provisions and Loviisa 3
project-related costs contributed to the profit decrease. Higher generation
volumes only partly offset the profit decline.
In July, Fortum signed a contract with the Polish Południowy Koncern
Energetyczny (PKE), part of Tauron Group, to reduce nitrogen oxides at a Polish
power plant. The EUR 55-million contract is the largest of its kind in terms of
value in Poland. The project is being implemented in co-operation with Zakłady
Remontowe Energetyki Katowice. In the project, Fortum is responsible for the
technological solutions and the deliveries of basic equipment.
Fortum's 308-MW share of the Meri-Pori power plant's production capacity was
reverted to the company's own use on 1 July 2010. Fortum's share has been leased
since 1 January 2007. The fixed-period lease on the share of production capacity
was one of the conditions set by the Finnish Competition Authority for approval
of Fortum's acquisition of E.ON Finland in summer 2006.

Heat sales during the third quarter of 2010 amounted to 2.4 (2.0) TWh and were
mainly generated in the Nordic countries. During the same period, power sales
totalled 0.8 (0.4) TWh. The volume increase was mainly due to new CHP capacity
in Finland (Suomenoja) and higher sales to industrial customers.
Heat sales during the first three quarters of 2010 amounted to 17.3 (15.1) TWh
and were mainly generated in the Nordic countries. During the same period, power
sales totalled 4.3 (2.8) TWh. The increased volumes were a result of colder
weather during the first quarter, increased industrial sales and new CHP
capacity in Finland and Estonia (Tartu).
The division's third-quarter comparable operating profit was EUR -12 million,
EUR 1 million better than the corresponding period last year.
The comparable operating profit for the first three quarters of 2010 for the
Heat Division was EUR 153 million, which is EUR 26 million higher than in the
corresponding period last year. The increase was mainly due to higher volumes
and power prices and stronger SEK and PLN currencies. Fuel costs were higher
than last year due to higher market prices and the peak-load impact in the
winter.
In September, Fortum inaugurated a CHP plant in Poland in the city of
Częstochowa. Also Fortum's new bio-fuel CHP plant in Pärnu, Estonia, was
synchronised to the grid in September. Commercial operation at both plants will
begin during the fourth quarter of 2010.
In the fourth quarter of 2010, Fortum will start construction of a new
waste-to-energy CHP plant in Klaipeda, Lithuania.
In Finland, the Finnish Government is proposing significant changes to fuel
taxation as of 2011. Among other measures, the fuel tax for natural gas in the
first stage is proposed to be increased by approximately 200%. This is clearly
more than the proposed increase for e.g. coal and peat. The increase in the gas
tax would lead to increases in Fortum's Finnish district heat prices.
The Swedish Competition Authority (SCA) is investigating district heating price
setting. The investigation concerns also Fortum Värme, which is jointly owned by
the City of Stockholm.

*) Q1/2010 has been restated.
The volume of distribution and regional network transmissions during the third
quarter of 2010 totalled 5.0 (4.8) TWh and 3.8 (3.5) TWh, respectively.
During the first three quarters of 2010, electricity transmission via the
regional distribution network totalled 10.9 (10.0) TWh in Sweden and 2.0 (2.0)
TWh in Finland.
The Distribution business area's comparable operating profit in the third
quarter was EUR 61 million, which is MEUR 14 million better than in the
corresponding period last year. The main reason for this was higher sales
combined with a stronger SEK during the third quarter.
During the first three quarters of the year, the business area's comparable
operating profit was EUR 216 million, which is EUR 34 million higher than in
January-September 2009. The main reasons for the increase are higher sales due
to the colder weather during the first quarter and a stronger SEK.
The pilot rollout of smart metering to the network customers in Finland started
in October 2010. For customers, smart metering has several benefits including
better control and therefore better understanding of electricity consumption.
Distribution improves efficiency through automation and focusing on the core
business. As a consequence, parts of the field operations are being outsourced.

In the third quarter of 2010, the business area's electricity sales totalled 5.6
(5.7) TWh while electricity sales in January-September 2010 totalled 21.7 (21.7)
TWh. The restructuring of the unprofitable Business Market segment started in
February 2010 and will affect the sales volume of Electricity Sales business
area from the fourth quarter of 2010 onwards.
Electricity Sales' comparable operating profit in the third quarter continued to
improve as a result of lower fixed costs and better sales margins, especially in
Sweden. The price peaks during the first quarter of 2010 had a negative impact
on the business area's profitability, leading to a decline in the comparable
operating profit for the period January-September.
Russia
The Russia Division consists of power and heat generation and sales in Russia.
It includes OAO Fortum and Fortum's over 25% holding in TGC-1, which is an
associated company and is accounted for using the equity method.

The division booked a comparable operating loss of EUR 16 (20) million in the
third quarter of 2010. The improvement is mainly attributable to OAO Fortum's
efficiency improvement programme.
The division's comparable operating loss for January-September 2010, EUR 9
million, was EUR 19 million smaller than in the same period last year due to the
efficiency improvement programme. The positive effect of slightly higher
electricity and heat margins was partly offset by lower capacity income for
existing capacities.
OAO Fortum's business is typically very seasonal: Its results are usually
strongest during the first and last quarters of the year.
The Russian wholesale power sector reform is proceeding. From 1 January 2010
onwards, 60% of all produced power in Russia was sold on the competitive market.
The share increased to 80% at the beginning of July 2010. The wholesale power
market is expected to be fully liberalised from the beginning of 2011.
Currently, approximately one third of Fortum's power sales in Russia come from
capacity payments, which the generating company receives based on its available
capacity. The general rules for the long-term capacity market starting from 2011
have been approved by the Russian Government. The detailed specifications are
still under preparation.
The generation capacity built after 2007 under government capacity supply
agreements (CSA) will receive guaranteed payments for a period of 10 years.
Prices for capacity under CSA are defined in order to ensure a sufficient return
on investments. The price parameters for the CSA's were approved in April.
Capacity not under CSA will compete in competitive capacity selection (CCS),
where price is defined in auctions, but can be limited by price caps.
In light of the recovering post-crises demand and development of the Russian
capacity market, Fortum has accelerated the schedule of OAO Fortum's committed
2,300 MW-investment programme and plans to commission the new units by the end
of 2014. The first three units are now estimated to be in commercial operation
during the first half of 2011, approximately 2-3 months later than previously
expected.
The new capacity is a key driver for solid earnings growth in Russia as it will
bring income from new volumes sold and is expected to receive at least a 3-4
times higher price in the capacity market than the old capacity received. The
value of the remaining part of the investment programme, calculated at the end
of September 2010 exchange rates, is estimated to be EUR 1.7 billion from
October 2010 onwards.
OAO Fortum's efficiency improvement programme is proceeding according to plans.
The annual efficiency improvements are expected to be approximately EUR 100
million in 2011.
The Russia Division's comparable operating loss has decreased by EUR 86 million
since the first quarter 2009 when the division's first full twelve-month result
in Fortum was reported (LTM comparable operating profit in the first quarter of
2009 was EUR -87 million and LTM comparable operating profit in the third
quarter of 2010 was EUR -1 million).
Capital expenditures, divestments and investments in shares
Capital expenditures and investments in shares in January-September 2010
totalled EUR 750 (634) million. Investments, excluding acquisitions, were EUR
723 (571) million.
Fortum expects to start the supply of power and heat from new power plants as

Power
In August 2010, Fortum announced that it will acquire a 40% stake in the Blaiken
wind power project in Sweden. The remaining 60% is held by the Swedish energy
company Skellefteå Kraft. Fortum and Skellefteå Kraft's joint venture, Blaiken
Vind AB, is planning to start construction of the wind farm in the Blaiken
region in northern Sweden. The wind farm will have a maximum of 100 wind
turbines with a total capacity of 250 MW and its estimated annual production is
600-720 gigawatt-hours (GWh). According to the plan, the wind farm will be built
in phases, with construction to begin in 2011 and to be completed in 2015.
Fortum's share of the total investment during the project will amount to a
maximum of EUR 160 million.
The Finnish Government gave a negative decision-in-principle on Fortum's
application concerning the construction of a new nuclear power plant unit,
Loviisa 3. Fortum is also, with an approximately 25% interest, a shareholder in
Teollisuuden Voima Oyj (TVO), whose decision-in-principle application for a new
nuclear power plant unit, Olkiluoto 4, was approved by the Finnish Government
and ratified by the Finnish Parliament.
Through its interest in TVO Fortum is participating in the building of Olkiluoto
3, a 1,600-MW nuclear power plant unit in Finland. The AREVA-Siemens Consortium,
TVO's turnkey supplier of Olkiluoto 3 announced in June that in light of the
current progress most of the works will be completed in 2012 while regular
operation of the plant unit is foreseen during 2013.
In September 2010, Fortum divested its share in the Finnish wind power producer
Hyötytuuli Oy.
Heat
In January 2010, Fortum acquired the CHP plant in Nokia, Finland. The plant's
capacity is around 85 MW heat and 70 MW electricity.
In February 2010, Fortum decided to invest in a new waste-fuelled CHP plant in
Klaipeda, Lithuania. The value of the investment amounts to approximately EUR
140 million. The power plant is planned to be ready for production by the end of
2013. The fuel will consist of municipal and industrial waste and biomass. The
production capacity will be approximately 50 MW heat and 20 MW electricity.
The sale of Fortum's shares in the Swedish gas transmission company Swedegas AB
was closed in February. The gain from the sales was included in the
first-quarter non-recurring items.
In September 2010, Fortum inaugurated a CHP plant in Poland in the city of
Częstochowa. Commercial operation starts during the fourth quarter. The plant is
fuelled by biomass (around 25%) and coal. The total value of the investment was
about EUR 135 million. The new Częstochowa CHP plant has an electricity
production capacity of 64 MW and a heat production capacity of 120 MW.
Also Fortum's new CHP plant in Pärnu, Estonia, was synchronised to the grid in
September 2010. Commercial operation starts during the fourth quarter. The total
value of the investment was around EUR 80 million. The production capacity of
the biomass and peat-fired power plant will be 50 MW heat and 24 MW electricity.
In September 2010, Fortum informed that it has made an investment decision to
build a new waste-fired unit for its CHP plant in Brista, Sweden. The value of
the project is about EUR 200 million, and completion of the new production unit,
Brista 2, is planned for 2013. The estimated capacity of the unit is 57 MW heat
and 20 MW electricity. In conjunction with the investment decision, Fortum
opened up the possibility for future co-ownership of Brista 2 with Sollentuna
Energi, the energy company of the nearby Sollentuna municipality.
Distribution
In early February 2010, Fortum divested its 49% share in Karlskoga Energi &
Miljö in Sweden to the Karlskoga municipality for approximately EUR 42 million.
The sales gain was included in the first quarter non-recurring items.
The EU's third energy market package entered into force in early September 2009.
One of the consequences is that Fortum will have to divest its 25% ownership in
the Finnish electricity transmission system operator Fingrid Oyj by early 2012.
Consequently, Fortum is investigating alternatives for the sale of the Fingrid
shares.
Russia
Fortum sold its shares in Federal Grid Company (Fortum's ownership was 0.119%)
and in Kurgan Generating Company (49% of the voting rights) in Russia during the
first quarter of 2010. The sales gains were included in the first-quarter
non-recurring items.
Fortum divested its approximately 31% holding in JOINT STOCK COMPANY
"SAINT-PETERSBURG SALE COMPANY" (JSC "SSC") to the Russian INTER RAO UES. The
sales gains were included in the third-quarter non-recurring items.
Financing
Net debt increased during the third quarter by EUR 102 million to EUR 6,608
million (year-end 2009: EUR 5,969 million). The increase in net debt is mainly
linked to the SEK strengthening and translation of SEK denominated debt in the
Group.
Total liquid funds increased by EUR 286 million from EUR 694 million to EUR 980
million (year-end 2009: 890 million). Liquid funds include cash and bank
deposits held by OAO Fortum amounting to EUR 452 million (year-end 2009: 632
million). In addition to the liquid funds, Fortum had access to approximately
EUR 2.9 billion of undrawn committed credit facilities.
The Group's net financial expenses were EUR 98 (128) million. The decrease is
mainly attributable to lower average interest rates in 2010 compared to the
corresponding period last year. Net financial expenses include changes in the
fair value of financial instruments of EUR 20 (5) million. Net debt to EBITDA
for the last twelve months was 2.7 (2.6 at year-end 2009).
Fortum Corporation's long-term credit rating from Moody's and Standard and
Poor's was A2 (stable) and A (stable), respectively.
Shares and share capital
In January-September 2010, a total of 396.5 (453.0) million Fortum Corporation
shares, totalling EUR 7,394 million, were traded on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki.
Fortum's market capitalisation, calculated using the closing quotation of the
last trading day of the third quarter 2010, was EUR 17,048 million. The highest
quotation of Fortum Corporation shares on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki during the
reporting period was EUR 19.92, the lowest EUR 17.18, and the volume-weighted
average EUR 18.65. The closing quotation on the last trading day of the third
quarter was EUR 19.19 (17.52).
At the end of the reporting period, Fortum Corporation's share capital was EUR
3,046,185,953 and the total number of registered shares was 888,367,045. Fortum
Corporation did not own its own shares.
The Finnish State's holding in Fortum was 50.8% at the end of the reporting
period. The proportion of nominee registrations and direct foreign shareholders
was 29.9%.
The Board of Directors has no unused authorisations from the Annual General
Meeting of Shareholders to issue convertible loans or bonds with warrants or to
issue new shares.
Group personnel
The number of employees at the end of the period was 10,865 (11,613 at the end
of 2009).
Research and development
Swedish Energy Agency and Vinnova approved substantial funding to initiate a
pre-study on the Royal Seaport of Stockholm. The aim of the Royal Seaport
programme is to build a new residential and commercial area in Stockholm in a
sustainable way. Fortum can - by being the grid owner - be an enabler of the new
energy system through a smart construction of the grid system.
As an outcome of Fortum's long-term nuclear R&D work, an application for higher
burn-up of nuclear fuel has been submitted to STUK, the safety authority in
Finland.
Outlook
Key drivers and risks
The key factor influencing Fortum's business performance is the wholesale price
of electricity. The key drivers behind wholesale price development are the
supply-demand balance, fuel and CO2 emissions allowance prices as well as the
hydrological situation. The exchange rates of the Swedish krona and Russian

Fortum's financial results are exposed to a number of strategic, financial and
operational risks. For further details on Fortum's risks and risk management,
see Fortum's Operating and Financial Review and Financial Statements for 2009.
Nordic market
Fortum currently expects Nordic power demand to recover back to the 2008 level
by 2012-2014. Electricity will continue to gain a higher share of the total
energy consumption.
In mid-October 2010, the electricity forward price in Nord Pool for the rest of
2010 was around EUR 51 per MWh. The electricity forward price for 2011 was
around EUR 45 per MWh and for 2012 around EUR 42 per MWh. At the same time, the
future quotations for coal (ICE Rotterdam) for the rest of 2010 were around USD
100 per barrel and the market price for CO2 emissions allowances (EUA) for 2010
was about EUR 16 per tonne.
In mid-October 2010, Nordic water reservoirs were about 15 TWh below the
long-term average and 16 TWh below the corresponding level of 2009.
Russia
The Russian wholesale power sector reform is proceeding. The wholesale power
market is expected to be fully liberalised from the beginning of 2011.
Furthermore, an agreement on the capacity market rules has been reached and the
new regulation is expected to significantly increase payments for new capacity
under the Government's Capacity Supply Agreement.
In light of the recovering post-crises demand and development of the capacity
market, Fortum has accelerated the schedule of OAO Fortum's committed 2,300
MW-investment programme and plans to commission the new units by the end of
2014. The first three units are now estimated to be in commercial operation
during the first half of 2011, approximately 2-3 months later than previously
expected. Completion of the programme is a key driver for solid earnings growth
in Russia. The value of the remaining part of the programme, calculated at the
end of September 2010 exchange rates, is estimated to be EUR 1.7 billion from
October 2010 onwards.
The average regulated gas price increased by 24% in the first quarter compared
to the average price in 2009. The regulated gas price is expected to remain
unchanged for the rest of 2010. The current official plan for 2011 is to
increase the regulated gas price by 15%. The regulated electricity price is
indexed to the regulated gas price and inflation on an annual basis.
Annual efficiency improvements are expected to be approximately EUR 100 million
in 2011.
Capital expenditure
Fortum's capital expenditure in 2010 is estimated to be around EUR 1.4 billion -
slightly less than indicated earlier. In 2011, Fortum currently expects capital
expenditure of around EUR 1.6 billion, exceeding the earlier forecast range of
EUR 0.8-1.2 billion. The annual level of Fortum's capital expenditure in
2012-2013 is estimated to exceed the company's normal guidance of EUR 0.8-1.2
billion. The main reason for higher capital expenditures in 2010-2013 is the
acceleration in Fortum's Russian investment programme.
Taxation
The Swedish Government has made a proposal to increase hydro property tax rates
from the beginning of 2011. Fortum estimates that the additional cost from the
possible tax rate increase would be around EUR 15 million.
The windfall tax was removed from the Government agenda in Finland.
Hedging
At the end of September 2010, approximately 80% of the Power Division's
estimated Nordic electricity sales volume for the rest of 2010 was hedged at
approximately EUR 45 per MWh. For the calendar year 2011, approximately 70% of
the division's estimated Nordic electricity sales volume was hedged at
approximately EUR 44 per MWh. For the calendar year 2012, approximately 35% of
the division's estimated Nordic electricity sales volume was hedged at
approximately EUR 43 per MWh.
The reported hedge ratios may vary significantly, depending on Fortum's actions
on the electricity derivatives markets. Hedges are mainly financial contracts,
most of them Nord Pool forwards or standardised futures, consisting of several
types of products and maturities.
Profitability
The first and last quarters of the year are usually the strongest quarters for
the power and heat businesses.
Fortum Power Division's achieved Nordic power price typically depends on e.g.
the hedge ratio, hedge price, spot prices, availability and utilisation of
Fortum's flexible production portfolio and currency fluctuations. Excluding the
potential effects from the changes in the power generation mix, a 1 EUR/MWh
change in Power's achieved Nordic sales price results in an approximately EUR 50
million change in Fortum's annual operating profit.
Fortum's results in the first three quarters of the year were solid. The company
has a flexible, cost-efficient and climate-benign generation portfolio. Fortum's
financial position and liquidity are strong.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Accounting effect of the last stock option program (2002B) upon ending of the
subscription period on 1 May 2009
Translation differences
Translation differences impacted equity attributable to owners of the parent
company with EUR 223 million during Q1-Q3 2010 (Q1-Q3 2009: -39) including net
effect from SEK, NOK and RUB amounting to EUR 216 million in Q1-Q3 2010 (Q1-Q3
2009: -39). Part of the translation difference is arising from the NOK effect in
fair valuation of Hafslund's REC shares, EUR 4 million accumulated until Q1-Q3
2010 (Q1-Q3 2009: 19), which is shown together with the change in fair value in
OCI items associated companies.
Translation of financial information from subsidiaries in foreign currency is
done using average rate for the income statement and end rate for the balance
sheet. The exchange rate differences occurring from translation to EUR are
booked to equity. For information regarding exchange rates used, see Note 8
Exchange rates.
Cash flow hedges
The impact on equity attributable to owners of the parent from fair valuation of
cash flow hedges, EUR -104 million during Q1-Q3 2010 (Q1-Q3 2009: -8), mainly
relates to cash flow hedges hedging electricity price for future transactions.
When electricity price is lower/higher than the hedging price, the impact on
equity is positive/negative.
Cash dividend
The dividend for 2009 was decided at the Annual General Meeting on 25 March
2010. The dividend was paid on 8 April 2010.
The dividend for 2008 was decided at the Annual General Meeting on 7 April 2009.

balance sheet exposure, which mainly relates to financing of Swedish
subsidiaries in SEK and the fact, that the Group's main external financing
currency is EUR. Major part of these forwards are entered into with short
maturities i.e. less than twelve months.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| January-Septemb | |
| er 2010 | |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Basis of preparation
The condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as
adopted by the EU. The condensed interim financial report should be read in
conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December
2009. The interim financial statements have not been audited.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 2. Accounting Policies |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The same accounting policies and presentation have been followed in these
condensed interim financial statements as were applied in the preparation of the
consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2009,
except for the effects of the adoption of the standards and presentation changes
described below:
- IFRS 3 (revised) Business combinations (effective for annual periods beginning
on or after 1 July 2009.) The amendment effects the accounting of transaction
costs, step acquisitions, goodwill and non-controlling interest and contingent
consideration. Fortum applies the revised standard to business combinations
taking place on or after 1 January 2010.
- IAS 27 (amended) Consolidated and separate financial statements (to be adopted
for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2009). The amendments to IAS 27
require the effects of all transactions with non-controlling interests to be
recorded in equity if there is no change in control. Fortum applies the amended
standard prospectively to transactions with non-controlling interests from 1
January 2010.
- IAS 17 (amendment) Leases (effective for annual periods beginning on or after
1 January 2010). The amendment is part of the IASB's annual improvements project
published in April 2009. The requirements of IAS 17 Leases regarding the
classification of leases of land were amended. Prior to amendment, IAS 17
generally required leases of land with an indefinite useful life to be
classified as operating leases. Following the amendments, leases of land are
classified as either ‘finance' or ‘operating' in accordance with the general
principles of IAS 17. Fortum has adopted the amendment as of 1 January 2010. The
amendment did not have a material impact on Fortum's financial statements as the
classification of major land lease agreements did not change.
For changes in accounting practice relating to TGC-1 results, see Note 13 below.
Additional line item in the income statement
Items affecting comparability are excluded from relevant income statement line
items and disclosed separately in Fortum's income statement as they are
necessary for understanding the financial performance when comparing results for
the current period with previous periods.
The following items are included in the line "Items affecting comparability":
- non-recurring items, consisting of capital gains and losses;
- effects from fair valuations of derivatives hedging future cash flows where
hedge accounting is not applied according to IAS 39. The major part of Fortum´s
cash flow hedges obtain hedge accounting status and the fair value changes are
thus recorded in equity;
- effects from the accounting of Fortum´s part of the State Nuclear Waste
Management Fund where the assets in the balance sheet cannot exceed the related
liabilities according to IFRIC 5.
In segment disclosures these items have been deducted from operating profit to
arrive to comparable operating profit, because that is considered to reflect
better the segments' business performance.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 3. Critical accounting | | | | | | |
| estimates and judgements | | | | | | |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make
judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities, income and expense. Annual results may differ from these
estimates.
In preparing these interim financial statements, the significant judgements made
by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of
estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated
financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2009.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 4. Segment information | | | | | | |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In October 2009 Fortum restructured its organisation into four business
divisions and four staff functions in order to increase the organisation's
efficiency, performance accountability and simplicity. The new business
divisions are Power, Heat, Russia and Electricity Solutions and Distribution.
The Electricity Solutions and Distribution (ESD) division consists of business
areas Distribution and Electricity Sales (former Markets). The reportable
segments under IFRS have been renamed correspondingly.
The reorganisation did not lead to a change in Fortum's external financial
reporting structure as the reportable segments have remained the same. However
there have been some minor changes to the composition of the segments that have
taken effect from beginning of January 2010. Changes relate mainly to the
transfer of the Power division's Power Solutions business area to Russia and
Heat divisions as well as the establishment of the centralised Trading and
Industrial Intelligence unit.
Please see the attachment to Q1 2010 press release for the new and old segment
information.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tax rate according to the income statement for the period Q1-Q3 2010 was 17.7%
(Q1-Q3 2009: 18.7%) The tax rate for the period is lower than in the comparable
period mainly due to the tax exempt capital gains.
The tax rate for the period Q1-Q3 2010, excluding the impact of share of profits
of associated companies and joint ventures, non- taxable capital gains and other
one-time items was 19.3% (Q1-Q3 2009: 18.6%). The tax rate used in the income
statement is always impacted by the fact that share of profits of associates and
joint ventures is recorded based on Fortum's share of profits after tax.
The tax rate for the full year 2009, excluding the impact of share of profits of
associated companies and joint ventures, non- taxable capital gains and other
one-time items was 18.5%.

Share of profits from associates and joint ventures
Share of profits from associates in Q3 2010 was EUR 10 million (Q3 2009: 3) of
which Fortum's share of profits in Hafslund ASA was EUR 8 million (Q3 2009: 6).
Hafslund sold 26 million shares in REC in May 2010. In accordance with the
accounting policy Fortum recognised EUR 2 million in relation to Hafslund's
divestment of REC shares as a part of the share of profit from associates and
joint ventures in Q2 2010. Fortum's share of profits for the period from January
to September 2010 amounted to EUR 41 million (Q1-Q3 2009: -1), of which Hafslund
represented EUR 22 million (Q1-Q3 2009: -14) and Gasum EUR 20 million (Q1-Q3
2009: 16). Fortum's share of profits for the full year 2009 amounted to EUR 21
million, of which Hafslund represented EUR -4 million. According to Fortum Group
accounting policies the share of profits from Hafslund has been included in
Fortum Group figures based on the previous quarter information since updated
interim information is not normally available. Hafslund will publish their
interim report for Q3 2010 on 28 October 2010. The effect of Hafslund's Q3 is
not included in Fortum's Q3 results.
In Q2 2010 Fortum changed its accounting practice for recognition of TGC-1
results. Previously Fortum has booked its share of results including any
impairment losses and reversals of prior impairments recognised by TGC-1. In the
future Fortum is eliminating the impairment losses or reversals of prior
impairments from its share of results and assessing the need for impairment
separately. The accounting practice change was done prospectively adjusting for
previous periods as the impact on the comparative year information is
immaterial.
TGC-1 has previously published IFRS financial information twice a year. The 2009
IFRS consolidated financial statements were released in June 2010. From 2010
TGC-1 publishes IFRS interim financial statements quarterly. The first quarter
2010 IFRS results were published in the beginning of July 2010 and the second
quarter 2010 in the beginning of September 2010. This interim report includes
Fortum's share of TGC-1's profits for the second half of 2009 as well as for the
first half of 2010.
Investments and share issues
Teollisuuden Voima Oyj's (TVO) Annual General meeting in March 2010 decided to
raise the company's share capital by EUR 79.3 million of which Fortum's share is
EUR 19.8 million. The increase in Fortum's participation in TVO has been booked
in Q1 2010 and will be paid in 2010 at a date to be decided by TVO's Board of
Directors.
Divestments
In early February 2010 Distribution business area divested Fortum's 49%
shareholding in Karlskoga Energi & Miljö AB. In the first quarter of 2010 Heat
Division divested Fortum's 20.4% shareholding in Swedegas AB and Russia Division
divested OAO Fortum's 49% shareholding in Kurgan Generating Company. In the
third quarter Russia Division divested Fortum's approcimately 31% shareholding
in St Petersburg Sale Company.
OCI items in associated companies
OCI items in associated companies mainly represents the fair value change in
Hafslund's shareholding in REC. In Q3 2010 the fair value change of the
remaining REC shares was 16 million (Q3 2009: 32) and the fair value change
since year-end was
EUR -64 million (Q1-Q3 2009: 4). The cumulative fair value change in Fortum's
equity, based on the remaining number of shares reported by Hafslund, was EUR 21
million at 30 September 2010.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The reported interest-bearing debt increased during the quarter by EUR 388
million from EUR 7,200 million to EUR 7,588 million (year-end 2009: 6,859).
Total liquid funds increased by EUR 286 million from EUR 694 million to EUR 980

Finnish nuclear waste fund by EUR 61 million to EUR 835 million. During the
second quarter Fortum Oyj raised a 10 year loan from Nordic Investment Bank of
EUR 60 million. The loan will partially finance investments in automatic meter
reading equipment. During the third quarter Fortum Oyj issued a dual-tranche SEK
3.1 billion fixed rate bond due 2015 and a SEK 3.1 billion Floating Rate Note
due 2015 under Fortum's Euro Medium-Term Note Program. The 3 year EUR 2,000
million Term loan facility raised in connection with the acquisition of TGC-10
(renamed as OAO Fortum) in March 2008 was cancelled during the quarter as the
remaining outstanding drawn amount of EUR 350 million under the facility was
amortized.
Fortum Oyj regularly issues short term Commercial Papers (CPs) in the Finnish
and Swedish markets. The amount of outstanding CPs decreased by EUR 88 million
during the quarter to EUR 244 million (year-end 2009: 250 million).

Nuclear related provisions
According to the renewed Nuclear Energy Act Fortum submitted the proposal for
the nuclear waste management liability regarding the Loviisa nuclear power plant
to the Ministry of Employment and the Economy at the end of June. The liability
is based on a technical plan, which is made every third year. The new technical
plan and the updated cost estimates were completed in Q2 2010. The future costs
are estimated to increase mainly due to updated technical plans related to
interim and final storage of spent fuel. The liability will be decided by the
Ministry of the Employment and the Economy by the end of year 2010.
The legal liability on 30 September 2010, decided by the Ministry of Employment
and the Economy in January 2010 is EUR 913 million. The legal liability at the
end of 2010, based on the proposal to the Ministry of Employment and the Economy
is EUR 944 million. The provision in the balance sheet related to nuclear waste
management is based on cash flows for future costs which uses the same basis as
the legal liability. The carrying value of the nuclear provision, calculated
according to IAS 37, has increased due to new technical plan by EUR 46 million
compared to 31 December 2009, totalling EUR 616 million on 30 September 2010.
The main reason for the difference between the carrying value of the provision
and the legal liability is the fact that the legal liability is not discounted
to net present value.
Fortum's share in the State Nuclear Waste Management Fund
Fortum contributes funds to the State Nuclear Waste Management Fund based on the
yearly funding obligation target decided by the governmental authorities in
December in connection with the decision of size of the legal liability. The
current funding obligation target based on the legal liability decided in
January 2010 and approved periodising of the payments to the Fund is EUR 830
million. The Fund is from an IFRS perspective overfunded with EUR 214 million,
since Fortum's share of the Fund on 30 September 2010 is EUR 830 million and the
carrying value in the balance sheet is EUR 616 million.
Effects to comparable operating profit and operating profit
Following the updated cost estimates, Fortum had in Q2 2010 a one-time effect to
Comparable operating profit of EUR -9 million in Power segment due to higher
nuclear waste management costs related to already spent fuel. After the refined
cost estimates in Q3 2010 Fortum had a one-time effect to Comparable operating
profit of EUR +2 million, resulting to a cumulative effect of EUR -7 million in
2010. Any cost increase or decrease which is related to already spent fuel is
always recognised immediately in Comparable operating profit.
Operating profit in Power segment is affected by the accounting principle for
Fortum's share of the Finnish Nuclear Waste Management Fund, since the carrying
value of the Fund in Fortum's balance sheet can in maximum be equal to the
amount of the provisions according to IFRS. As long as the Fund is overfunded
from an IFRS perspective, the effects to operating profit from this adjustment
will be positive if the provisions increase more than the Fund and negative if
actual value of the fund increases more than the provisions. This accounting
effect is not included in Comparable operating profit in Fortum financial
reporting; see Other items affecting comparability in Note 4. Fortum had an
effect from this adjustment in Q3 2010 of EUR -10 million, compared to
EUR -5 million in Q3 2009. The cumulative effect 2010 was EUR 4 million compared
to EUR -26 million in 2009.
Associated companies
Fortum has minority shareholdings in associated Finnish and Swedish nuclear
production companies. Fortum has for these companies accounted for its share of
the effects from nuclear related assets and provisions according to Fortum
accounting principles.

Pledged assets for debt
Finnish participants in the State Nuclear Waste Management Fund are allowed to
borrow from the Fund. During Q1 2010 Fortum increased its borrowing from the
Fund (see Note 15) and therefore pledged additional Kemijoki shares as security.
The value of the pledged shares amount to EUR 269 million (2009: 263 million) as
of 30 September 2010 (and 31 December 2009 respectively).
Pledged assets for other commitments
Fortum has given real estate mortgages in Naantali and Inkoo power plants in
Finland, total value of EUR 181 million (2009: 220 million), as a security to
the State Nuclear Waste Management Fund for the uncovered part of the legal
liability and unexpected events relating to future costs for decomissioning and
disposal of spent fuel in Loviisa nuclear power plant. The size of the
securities given was updated in Q2 based on the decisions regarding the legal
liabilities and the funding target which takes place around year end every year.
Due to the yearly update, the amount of real estate mortgages given as a
security decreased by EUR 39 million in Q2 2010 (see also note 16 Nuclear
related assets and liablities).

Capital commitments have decreased compared to year end 2009. Commitments have
decreased due to acquisition of combined heat and power plant (CHP) in Nokia,
Finland and progressing of OAO Fortum's investment program as well as
Czestochowa power plant investment. On the other hand a stronger Russian rouble
and commitments relating to CHP investment in Klaipeda, Lithuania and CHP
investment Brista 2, Sweden have increased commitments.

Guarantees on own behalf
Other contingent liabilities on own behalf, EUR 190 million, have decreased by
EUR 131 million compared to year-end 2009. The decrease is due to cancellation
of parent company guarantee related to Fortum's operating and maintenance
business in the UK, and progressing of the investments in Russia and Poland.
Guarantees on behalf of associated companies
According to law, nuclear companies operating in Finland and Sweden shall give
securities to the Finnish State Nuclear Waste Management Fund and the Swedish
Nuclear Waste Fund respectively, to guarantee that sufficient funds exist to
cover future expenses of decommissioning of power plant and disposal of spent
fuel.
The guarantee given on behalf of Teollisuuden Voima Oyj (TVO) to the Finnish
fund amount to EUR 58 million at 30 September 2010 (EUR 67 at year-end 2009).
The size of the guarantee was updated in Q2, based on the decisions regarding
legal liability and the funding target made in January 2010 (see note 16).
In Sweden, Fortum has given guarantees on behalf of Forsmarks Kraftgrupp AB
(FKA) and OKG AB (OKG) to the Swedish Nuclear Waste Fund to cover Fortum's part
of FKA's and OKG's liability. The guarantees for 2010 and 2011 were decided in
December 2009 by the Swedish government and they became effective from June
2010. The total amount of guarantees for FKA and OKG decreased from SEK 5,314
million (EUR 518 million) at year-end 2009 to SEK 2,574 million (EUR 282
million) in June 2010. The decrease is due to a change made by the Swedish
government in the calculation method of the guarantees. The guarantees were
previously based on nominal values, but from June 2010 onwards they are based on
discounted cash flows.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 21. Legal actions and official proceedings |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In August 2010 The Supreme Administrative Court in Finland overruled the appeal
by the Finnish Competition Authority on the decision of the Market Court on 14
March 2008. The Market Court decided then that Fortum's E.ON Finland acquisition
in 2006 did not give Fortum a dominant market position or strengthen the market
position.
Fortum is, through its interest in TVO, participating in the building of a 1,600
MW nuclear power plant unit (Olkiluoto 3) in Finland. The AREVA-Siemens
Consortium, the turnkey supplier of the Olkiluoto 3 nuclear power plant unit to
TVO, announced in June that in light of the current progress most of the works
will be completed in 2012 while regular operation of the plant unit is foreseen
during 2013.
No other material changes in legal actions and official proceedings have
occurred during Q1-Q3 2010 compared to the year-end 2009.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 22. Related party transactions |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Related parties are described in the annual financial statements as of the year
ended 31 December 2009. No material changes have occurred during Q1-Q3 2010.
The Finnish State owned 50.76% of the shares in Fortum 31 December 2009. There
has been no change in the amount of shares during 2010.
