Glaston Interim Report 1 January - 31 March 2010
-Orders received in January-March totalled EUR 29.4 (26.8) million.
-Glaston's order book on 31 March 2010 stood at EUR 36.9 (45.9) million.
-Consolidated net sales in January-March totalled EUR 38.4 (39.2) million.
-The operating result in January-March was a loss of EUR 1.7 (9.0 loss)
million,i.e. -4.4 (-22.9)% of net sales.
-Return on capital employed (ROCE) was -9.9 (-17.1)%
-January-March earnings per share were EUR -0.06 (-0.10) million
-Glaston's outlook for 2010 is unchanged. Due to efficiency measures already
implemented, Glaston started 2010 on a better foundation and expects 2010 net
sales to be at least at the 2009 level and the operating result to improve
significantly.
President & CEO Arto Metsänen:
“After a very difficult year, it is positive to observe that the market decline
has stopped and that a cautious recovery is under way. Demand in Asia grew in
the first quarter according to expectations and the positive development in the
South American market continued. In Europe and North America demand was at the
same level as last year.
The cost savings generated by implemented efficiency measures had a positive
impact on the first quarter result. Measures to adjust to the market situation
will be purposefully continued.”
Reporting segments
Glaston's reporting segments are Machines, Services and Software Solutions. In
the first quarter, tool sales were transferred from the Services segment to the
Machines segment. Comparison data have been adjusted.
Markets
The cautious recovery of the market continued during the first quarter but was
geographically uneven. In South America and China the positive development
continued, but the European and North American markets remained subdued. Solar
energy glass demand rose slightly.
Machines
In the review period, demand in Europe and in North America continued to be
weak. In Europe, uncertainty about economic development still influenced
customers' investment decisions. Market instability was particularly evident in
the number of new orders for Heat Treatment machines. The positive development
of the South American market continued on a good level due to sustained demand.
In Asia, and particularly in China,the market picked up. This was boosted by a
pick-up in construction as well as increased use of laminated glass.
A limited recovery was evident in demand for solar energy glass solutions, and
during the review period Glaston received a number of larger orders for solar
energy glass grinding machines.
To improve product management, three product line organisations were established
in the Machines segment: Heat Treatment, Pre-processing and Tools. At the same
time, tools were transferred completely from the Services segment to the
Machines segment.
The transfer of cutting technology from Italy to China proceeded in the review
period and a new cutting line was launched onto the Asian market. Sourcing from
low-cost countries was expanded and the sourcing organisation in China was
strengthened.
In January-March, the Machines segment's net sales totalled EUR 24.3 (23.6)
million.
Services
During the first quarter, slight signs of recovery were perceptible in the
Services segment market. The European and North American markets, however,
remained subdued.
Sales of spare parts grew compared with the corresponding period of the previous
year, with other product groups being on the same level as 2009. Despite the
challenging market situation, demand for Glaston Care service contracts stayed
at the level of last year.
In the review period, the Services segment developed new upgrade products and
focused on improving the profitability of upgrade products. In response to the
increasing role of the Chinese market, the Services segment established a spare
parts Delivery Center in connection with the Tianjin factory.
In the review period, Tamglass Glass Processing Oy's solar energy glass
manufacturing in Akaa ended and the personnel, a total of 15 people, were made
redundant. The Akaa factory manufactured mirrors intended for solar energy
production as a service activity on behalf of one customer.
In January-March, the Services segment's net sales totalled EUR 8.2 (10.7)
million.
Software Solutions
In the first quarter, the Software Solutions market followed the general market
trend. Software Solutions' main market area, i.e. the EMEA area, has not shown
signs of recovery. In the Asian and South American markets demand picked up
slightly. In the United States, demand continued to be at a low level.
Due to low demand, measures to boost sales will play a key role in future. The
order book is at the level of the previous year, closely reflecting the
prevailing market situation.
The Panorama and AWFactory products, intended to manage integrated line control
systems, were delivered to selected customers. These new-generation software
systems enable a higher degree of automation and better work-flow integration,
supporting Glaston's position as the leading supplier in the sector.
In January-March, the Software Solutions segment's net sales totalled
EUR 6.1 (6.0) million.
Orders received
Glaston's orders received during the first quarter totalled EUR 29.4 (26.8)
million. Of orders received, the Machines segment accounted for 69%, Services
23% and Software Solutions 8%.
Order book
Glaston's order book on 31 March 2010 was EUR 36.9 (45.9) million. Of the order
book, the Machines business area accounted for EUR 32.4 million, Services for
EUR 0.7 million and Software Solutions for EUR 3.8 million.

Implemented cost savings had a positive impact on the first-quarter result. The
operating result in January-March was a loss of EUR 1.7 (9.0 loss) million, i.e.
-4.4 (-22.9)% of net sales. Of the first-quarter operating result, the Machines
segment accounted for EUR -1.5 (-5.3) million, Services EUR 1.0 (-1.7) million
and Software Solutions EUR 0.7 (-0.4) million.
First-quarter financial items include a EUR -2.7 million expense item connected
with the INTERPANE Glass Oy ownership arrangement implemented on 9 April 2010.
The result for the review period was a loss of EUR 4.4 million (8.1 loss).
Return on capital employed was -9.9 (-17.1)% and earnings per share were
EUR -0.06 (-0.10).
Efficiency programme
The efficiency programme proceeded according to plan in the review period.
Production capacity adjustment measures in Italy and Finland continued. Most of
the personnel reductions have already been implemented since the beginning of
the year, with the remainder to be completed during 2010. Temporary lay-offs
continued in Italy and Finland. The assembly plant located in Rovello Porro,
Italy was closed in the review period and operations transferred to Bregnano.
Material sourcing was enhanced at every factory by increasing purchases from
low-cost countries. The sourcing organisation in China was strengthened. In the
review period, a project to simplify the EMEA area sales organisation was
initiated.
Financing
The Group's financial position remained good. A EUR 6.3 million convertible bond
issued on 18 February 2010 influenced the Group's financial position. The terms
of the convertible bond conditions are similar to the those of the convertible
bond issued in June 2009.
Cash flow from operating activities, excluding the change in working capital,
was negative, EUR -3.2 (-8.1) million, in the review period. The most
significant reason for the negative cash flow from operating activities was
restructuring expenses recognised in 2009 but paid in the review period. The
change in working capital was EUR -3.5 (4.4) million. Cash flow from investments
was EUR -0.7 (-2.9) million. Cash flow from financing activities in
January-March was EUR 5.5 (3.2) million.
The equity ratio on 31 March 2010 was 32.1 (44.3)%.
The Group's liquid funds at the end of the review period totalled EUR 15.3 (8.8)
million. Interest-bearing net debt totalled EUR 67.7 (66.2) million and net
gearing was 102.0 (58.7)%. In liquidity management, Glaston mainly utilises a
committed revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility was renewed
in November 2009. The size of the new revolving credit facility is EUR 74
million, of which EUR 31 million was in use at the end of March.
Capital expenditure, depreciation and amortisation
Glaston's gross capital expenditure totalled EUR 0.8 (4.1) million. In the
review period, there were no significant individual investments.
In the review period, depreciation and amortisation of intangible assets and
property, plant and equipment totalled EUR 1.8 (2.2) million. In addition,
impairment losses of EUR 0.1 (0.4) million on intangible assets and property,
plant and equipment were recognised in the review period.
Personnel
On 31 March 2010, Glaston Corporation had a total of 1,072 (1,532) employees. Of
the Group's employees, 19% worked in Finland and 50% elsewhere in the EMEA area,
17% in Asia and 13% in the Americas. The average number of employees was 1,080
(1,542).
Shares and share prices
Glaston Corporation's paid and registered share capital
on 31 March 2010 was EUR 12.7 million and the number of issued shares totalled
79,350,000. The company has one series of share. At the end of March, the
company held 838,582 of the company's own shares (treasury shares),
corresponding to 1% of the total number of issued shares and votes. The counter
book value of treasury shares is EUR 134,173.
Every share that the company does not hold itself entitles its owner to one vote
at the Annual General Meeting. The share has no nominal value. The counter book
value of each share is EUR 0.16.
On 31 March 2010, the market capitalisation of the company's shares, treasury
shares excluded, was EUR 113.1 (74.6) million. During the first quarter of the
year, a total of around 5.8 million of the company's shares were traded, i.e.
around 7% of the average number of shares. The lowest price paid for a share was
EUR 1.05 and the highest price EUR 1.65. The weighted average price of shares
traded during January-March was EUR 1.21. The closing price on 31 March 2010 was
EUR 1.44.
The equity per share attributable to the owners of the parent was EUR 0.84
(1.43).
Events after the review period
A Glaston Corporation joint venture, the glass processing company INTERPANE
Glass Oy, was sold to Rakla Finland Oy on 9 April 2010. The impact of the
ownership arrangement on the result, around EUR -2.7 million, has been
recognised as a financial item in the first-quarter result.
Decisions of the Annual General Meeting
The Annual General Meeting of Glaston Corporation was
held in Helsinki on 13 April 2010. The Annual General Meeting
approved the financial statements and consolidated financial statements for 2009
and released the Board of Directors and the President & CEO from liability for
the accounting period 1 January-31 December 2009.
The Annual General Meeting approved a proposal of the Board of Directors that no
dividend be distributed for the financial year 2009.
The Annual General Meeting confirmed the re-election of the following Members of
the Board of Directors for a year-long term of office: Claus von Bonsdorff,
Klaus Cawén, Jan Lång, Carl-Johan Rosenbröijer, Christer Sumelius and Andreas
Tallberg. In addition, Teuvo Salminen was elected as a new Member of the Board.
The Annual General Meeting decided to maintain the Chairman of the Board's
annual remuneration at EUR 40,000 and the Deputy Chairman's annual remuneration
at EUR 30,000. It was also decided to maintain the annual remuneration of the
other Members of the Board at EUR 20,000.
The Annual General Meeting elected as auditor Public Accountants Ernst & Young,
with the responsible auditor being Authorised Public Accountant Harri Pärssinen.
The Annual General Meeting approved an amendment to Article 11 of the Articles
of Association that the notice to attend a General Meeting be published no later
than three (3) weeks prior to the General Meeting, however at the latest nine
(9) days before the record date of the General Meeting.
Authorisations given by the Annual General Meeting
The Annual General Meeting also authorised the Board of Directors to decide on
the issue of new shares and/or the conveyance of the own shares held by the
Company. By virtue of the authorisation, the Board of Directors is entitled to
decide on the issuance of a maximum of 6,800,000 new shares and on the
conveyance of a maximum of 6,800,000 own shares held by the Company. However,
the total number of shares to be issued and/or conveyed may not exceed 6,800,000
shares. The new shares may be issued and own shares held by the company may be
conveyed either against payment or without payment.
The new shares may be issued and/or own shares held by the Company conveyed to
the Company's shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholdings in the
Company, or by means of a directed share issue, waiving the pre-emptive
subscription right of the shareholders, if there is a weighty reason for the
Company to do so, such as the shares are to be used to improve the capital
structure of the Company or as consideration in future acquisitions or other
arrangements that are part of the Company's business or as part of Company's or
its subsidiaries' incentive schemes.
Shares can be issued or conveyed without payment in exception to the pre-emptive
subscription right of shareholders only if there is an especially weighty
financial reason for the company to do so, taking the interests of all
shareholders into account.
The Board of Directors may decide on a share issue without payment also to the
company itself. A decision regarding a share issue to the Company itself cannot
be made such that the total number of shares held jointly by the Company or its
subsidiaries would exceed one tenth of all shares of the Company.
The subscription price of new shares issued and the consideration paid for the
conveyance of the Company's own shares shall be credited to the reserve for
invested unrestricted equity.
By virtue of the share issue authorisation, the Board of Directors shall decide
on other matters relating to the issuing and conveyance of shares. The share
issue authorisation is valid until the end of the 2012 Annual General Meeting.
The Board of Directors has no other authorisations.
Organising meeting of the Board of Directors
At its organising meeting, the
Board of Directors elected Andreas Tallberg to continue as the Chairman of the
Board and Christer Sumelius to continue as the Deputy Chairman of the Board.
Uncertainties in the near future
Glaston's uncertainties and risks in the near
future are to a large extent linked to the development of the world economy. Due
to the recession, Glaston's markets have contracted and the company's main
market areas (EMEA, North America) have recovered more slowly than other
markets. The subdued market has also led to underutilization of glass
processors' production capacity.
Despite a gradual pick-up in the economy, difficulties related to customers'
financing arrangements may limit investment opportunities further, in which case
orders may be postponed and those already confirmed may be cancelled. Customers'
financial situation also impacts on the collection of receivables and on credit
losses.
If the recovery of the sector is delayed, it is possible that Glaston's
recoverable amounts will, despite the savings arising from efficiency measures,
be insufficient to cover the carrying amounts of assets, particularly goodwill.
If this happens, it will be necessary to recognise an impairment loss, which
when implemented will weaken the result and equity.
Outlook
A limited and modest recovery in Glaston's market is expected during
2010. At the end of 2009. a recovery was already perceptible in Asia and demand
is expected to grow, particularly in the Chinese market. In South America,
demand remained good during 2009 and the positive trend has continued in the
early part of this year. Demand for solar energy projects is also expected to
develop positively during the year.
In 2010 the priorities for developing operations are improving profitability and
completing the adjustment measures initiated in 2009. The cornerstones of our
operations remain the architectural glass segment and the solar energy market.
We will continue purposefully to strengthen our position in China and elsewhere
in Asia.
Due to the efficiency measures performed, Glaston started 2010 on a better
foundation. We expect that 2010 net sales will be at least at the 2009 level and
that the operating result will significantly improve.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated interim financial statements of Glaston Group are prepared in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting as approved by the European Union. They do not include all
of the information required for full annual financial statements.
The accounting principles applied in these interim financial statements are the
same as those applied by Glaston in its consolidated financial statements as at
and for the year ended 31 December, 2009, with the exception of the following
new or revised or amended standards and interpretations which have been applied
from 1 January, 2010:
- IFRS 3 (revised) Business Combinations
- Amendments to IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements.
- IFRS 2 Share-based Payments - Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment
Transactions
In addition, Glaston applies the annual Improvements to IFRSs issued in April
2009.
In accordance with the revised IFRS 3 standard all acquisition-related costs
arising from the business combinations made after 1 January 2010 are recognized
in profit or loss and not capitalized as a part of the purchase consideration,
as previously were done. In addition, all consideration transferred in the
business combination are measured at the acquisition-date fair value, and
liabilities classified as contingent consideration are subsequently measured at
fair value with any resulting gain or loss recognized in profit or loss. For
each business combination it is possible to choose, whether the non-controlling
interest is measured at fair value or as the non-controlling interest's
proportionate share of the acquiree's net assets. This choice has an effect on
the goodwill arising from the business combination.
In accordance with the revised IAS 27 standard, the effects of the transactions
made with non-controlling interests are recognized in equity, if there is no
change in control. These transactions do not result in goodwill or gains or
losses. If the control is lost, the possible remaining ownership share is
measured at fair value and the resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or
loss. Also, in accordance with the revised standard, total comprehensive income
is attributed also to non-controlling interest even if this would result in the
non-controlling interest having a deficit balance.
The change of IAS 36 Impairment of Assets included in the annual improvements of
IFRSs changes the allocation of goodwill in Glaston. Goodwill has been allocated
to reportable segments aggregated from operating segments. According to the
change in the standard, the unit to which the goodwill can be allocated cannot
be larger than an operating segment before it is aggregated to be a part of a
reportable segment.
Other new or amended standards or interpretations applicable from 1 January,
2010 are not material for Glaston Group.
