Glaston Interim Report 1 January - 30 June 2009
GLASTON CORPORATION Interim Report 11 August 2009 13.00
Glaston Interim Report 1 January - 30 June 2009
-Orders received in January-June totalled EUR 67.3 (136.8) million. During
April-June orders received totalled EUR 40,5 million, a growth of 51% compared
to the first quarter of the year.
-Glaston's order book on 30 June 2009 was EUR 37.1 (100.3) million.
-Consolidated net sales in January-June totalled EUR 84.4 (135.7) million.
-The operating result in January-June was a loss of EUR 19.5 (5.4 profit)
million, representing -23.1 (+4.0)% of net sales.
-The operating result, excluding non-recurring items, was a loss of EUR 15.2
(5.4 profit) million.
-Return on capital employed (ROCE) was -19.7 (+8.3)%.
-January-June earnings per share were EUR -0.23 (+0.05).
-Due to a weak order book in early 2009 and exceptionally low demand, Glaston
still expects 2009 net sales to fall short of the 2008 level. Due to the
reduced order book in the first quarter, third quarter net sales are expected
to be low, and the July-September operating result is expected to be a loss.
Chief Financial Officer Kimmo Lautanen:
“The glass processing machine market in the first half of the year was low. At
the end of the second quarter, orders received developed positively compared
with the first quarter.
The weak result was due to the sharp fall in net sales, for which the cost
savings and efficiency measures under way did not compensate. The adjustment of
the company's cost structure will continue.
Cost savings in January-June, excluding material costs, totalled EUR 10.6
million. The company's net debt began to fall during the second quarter. Cost
savings from enhanced restructuring programmes are expected to rise during 2009
to EUR 20 million.”
New segment information
On 22 April 2009, Glaston announced that it was changing its organisation and
that the segments in future will be Machines, Services and Software Solutions.
The Pre-processing and Heat Treatment segments have been combined to form the
new Machines segment. At the same time, maintenance and service business was
separated from machine operations into its own Services segment.
The Machines segment comprises tempering, bending and laminating machines sold
under the Tamglass and Uniglass brands, glass pre-processing machines sold under
the Bavelloni brand, and tool manufacturing.
The Services segment consists of glass processing machine maintenance and
service activity, sales of spare parts and tools, and the operation of the glass
processing factory in Akaa, Finland, on behalf of a partner.
The Software Solutions segment remains as before. The segment's product offering
covers enterprise resource planning systems for the glass industry and sold
under the Albat+Wirsam brand, software for the needs of window and door glass
manufacturers, and software for glass processors' integrated line solutions.
A reorganisation of Tools business is under way, and the net sales and operating
result for Tools are still reported in this interim report as part of the
Machines segment.
A change has also been made to the geographical segments reported quarterly. The
former EMEA has been divided into the segments Europe and MEAI (Middle East,
Africa, India, Pakistan and Bangladesh). The other reporting areas are Asia and
America.
Markets
Glaston's markets continued to be quiet compared with last year, with demand
remaining on a low level. Some signs of a recovery, however, were perceived
towards the end of the review period. Customers' continued to be cautious with
investments in the review period and the emphasis of machine sales was on
individual machines. There was no demand for extensive One-Stop-Partner sales.
Machines
Demand for glass processing machines was weak in the review period. The
continued market uncertainty impacted on customers' willingness to invest. In
the final weeks of the review period, however, tentative signs of a recovery in
the market were perceptible. Particularly in the Asian market, demand picked up
slightly due to local stimulus programmes. Demand in the South American market
still continued to be good.
In the second quarter, Glaston received significant orders from Germany and
China for architectural and solar energy glass production. The glass machines
sold represent the latest glass processing technology. In the review period, the
first Tamglass ProE Magnum 9633, Europe's biggest flat tempering line, was also
delivered.
Transfer of technology to China continued in the review period. The first
continuously operating Tamglass CHF flat tempering machine manufactured in the
Tianjin factory was delivered to the customer in June.
The Machines business area's January-June net sales totalled EUR 53.4 (92.7)
million.
Services
A decline in the utilisation rates of customers' machines influenced the service
market situation and demand for Tamglass and Bavelloni spare parts was weak
during the entire first half of the year. It was possible to compensate partly
for low demand through upgrade products. Demand for ceramic rollers, introduced
into the service product offering in 2008, remained good in the review period.
At the end of the review period, a small growth in demand was perceptible in the
North Asian market.
In the review period, maintenance of Uniglass machines became part of Glaston's
global service network. During the early part of the year, Services has brought
to the market a number of new upgrade products for Bavelloni, Tamglass and
Uniglass machines and equipment. Most of the upgrade products are solutions that
improve production capacity, for example of Low-e machines. In addition, the
service offering has been expanded with training packages directed at customers
as well as with comprehensive consulting concepts for the customer's production.
Demand for tools was weak in the period under review. As part of the Group
restructuring programme, manufacturing of tools in the USA was discontinued.
Services business January-June net sales totalled EUR 20.4 (30.2) million.
Software Solutions
The economic downturn continued to impact on the activity of the Software
Solutions business area. Demand in the USA and China continued to be very weak.
The relatively stable Central European market, however, partly compensated for
weakened demand in other market areas.
A higher degree of automation as well as systems integration have been the
product development priorities for a couple of years now, and the present market
situation has even accelerated this trend. The Panorama line control system was
developed further in the review period.
The Software Solutions business area's January-June net sales totalled EUR 11.8
(13.7) million.
One-Stop-Partner
Demand for extensive One-Stop-Partner projects came to a halt during the final
quarter of 2008 and demand continued to be weak during the second quarter of
2009.
The order intake for One-Stop-Partner deliveries was EUR 1.2 (14.3) million in
January-June. The unit's earnings are included in Glaston's reporting segments.
A market for factory solutions related to solar energy still exists, and
Glaston's position in this customer segment is strong. As the economic downturn
continues, customers are postponing their investment decisions. On the other
hand, the recession has accelerated the trend towards integrated solutions and a
higher degree of automation.
Orders received
Glaston's order intake in the first half of the year was EUR 67.3 (136.8)
million. Of orders received, Machines accounted for 68%, Services 24% and
Software Solutions 8%.
Order book
Glaston's order book on 30 June 2009 was EUR 37.1 (100.3) million. Of the order
book, the Machines business area accounted for EUR 30.8 million, Services for
EUR 2.3 million and Software Solutions for EUR 4.0 million.

Net sales and result
January-June net sales totalled EUR 84.4 (135.7) million. The Machines business
area's net sales in January-June were EUR 53.4 (92.7) million, Services' net
sales EUR 20.4 (30.2) million and Software Solutions EUR 11.8 (13.7) million.
The decline in net sales resulted from continued exceptionally weak demand.
Second-quarter net sales were EUR 45.2 (72.6) million and distributed across the
business areas as follows: Machines EUR 29.8 (49.9) million, Services EUR 9.7
(16.9) million and Software Solutions EUR 5.9 (6.4) million.

The operating result in January-June was a loss of EUR 19.5 (5.4 profit)
million, representing -23.1 (+4.0)% of net sales. The result includes EUR 4.3
million of non-recurring costs relating mainly to operational efficiency
measures, which were recognised in the second quarter. Of the January-June
operating loss, excluding non-recurring items, the Machines business area
accounted for EUR -9.9 (+5.4) million, the Services business area for EUR -1.9
(+1.7) million and Software Solutions for EUR 0.1 (2.2) million.
The sharp decline in sales impacted on the Machines business area's
profitability, which, despite substantial cost-cutting measures, weakened
compared with the corresponding period of the previous year. Adjustment of
operations and efficiency-improvement measures will be forcefully continued
during the latter part of the year.
The second quarter operating loss, excluding non-recurring items, was EUR -6.2
(+3.8) million, of which the Machines business area accounted for EUR -4.6
(+3.3) million, the Services business area for EUR -0.2 (+1.3) million and
Software Solutions for EUR 0.5 (1.2) million.

The result for the review period was a loss of EUR 18.1 (3.7 profit) million.
Return on capital employed was -19.7 (+8.3)% and earnings per share were
EUR -0.23 (+0.05). Earnings per share in the second quarter were EUR -0.13
(0.04).
Efficiency programme
To improve profitability and adjust operations to the market situation,
efficiency measures were initiated throughout the Group in September 2008, and
these measures were continued in the review period.
The restructuring of machine operations proceeded during the second quarter, and
the Pre-processing and Heat Treatment business areas were integrated into the
Machine business area. At the end of the review period, the Machines business
area's new global organisation had been appointed and was active. In the next
stage, the Machines business area will focus on completing the integration and
on further improving profitability by, among other things, rationalising the
product portfolio and developing the global production structure.
Operational efficiency was enhanced by adjusting production, and the production
unit located in Mexico was closed in March. The closure of the factory located
in Cinnaminson, USA has proceeded according to plan and operations will cease at
the end of September. In the review period, the transfer to Finland and China of
tempering machine production in the USA was initiated.
In service operations, cost-cutting and operational adjustment measures
continued and included the closure of a Japanese service location in April. In
addition, tool production in USA was transferred to Italy. The number of
employees engaged in service tasks declined in the review period by 30.
The Group has substantial temporary lay-off programmes under way in Finland and
Italy. Working time has been shortened in Germany and the USA.
As a result of the efficiency and adjustment measures, the number of Glaston
employees had at the end of the review period fallen by 259 compared with the
end of 2008. In addition, temporary subcontracted workers were reduced nearly by
60.
The cost savings planned in the efficiency measures total nearly EUR 20 million
and related non-recurring costs are EUR 4.3 million for 2009. The savings will
be implemented mainly during 2009. The cost savings of the review period
(excluding material expenses) totalled EUR 10.6 million compared with the
corresponding period the previous year (in the second quarter 6.9 million).
Financing
The Group's financial position remained reasonable. Net debt declined in the
second quarter compared with the end of the first quarter. In addition to
dividends paid during the review period, the Group's financial position was
affected mainly by changes in working capital and cash flow from operating
activities as well as by a convertible bond issue (EUR 23.8 million). Working
capital was reduced (EUR +15.2 million), but cash flow from operating
activities, excluding the change in working capital, was negative (EUR -17.6
million) in the period under review. Cash flow from investing activities was
EUR -5.4 (-7.1) million. Cash flow from financing activities in January-June was
EUR 17.6 (15.1) million, including dividends paid in the review period of EUR
3.9 (7.8) million.
The equity ratio on 30 June 2009 was 41.9 (51.2)%.
The Group's liquid funds at the end of the period totalled EUR 21.4 (11.0)
million. Interest-bearing net debt totalled EUR 63.9 (31.9) million and net
gearing was 60.6 (23.6)%. To ensure liquidity, the Group has a EUR 65 million
committed revolving credit facility. At the end of June, EUR 20 million of the
facility was in use.
Capital expenditure, depreciation and amortisation
Glaston's gross capital expenditure totalled EUR 6.2 (7.0) million. The most
significant capital expenditure was related to a joint venture founded in
connection with the sale of the glass processing operations as well as to the
global ERP project. The ERP system was introduced in a pilot company in Finland
in the second quarter.
During the review period, depreciation, amortisation and impairment charges of
property, plant and equipment and intangible assets totalled EUR 5.2 (4.1)
million.
Group structural changes
As part of an efficiency programme initiated last year, operations of Uniglass
Engineering Oy were transferred to Glaston's factory in Tampere, Finland.
Operations at the Uniglass factory in Ylöjärvi, Finland, ended on 31 March 2009.
Glaston's subsidiary Tamglass Glass Processing Ltd. sold its insulation and
architectural glass processing operations to INTERPANE Glass Oy in March.
INTERPANE Glass Oy is a Glaston joint venture company. The net sales of the sold
operations totalled around EUR 14 million in 2008. As of 1 April 2009, glass
processing operations consist only of solar reflector production at Akaa,
Finland. Glass processing operations belong to the Services segment.
Glaston's two companies in Mexico merged in the second quarter. Glaston UK Ltd.
and Albat+Wirsam Software Ltd. in the UK merged at the beginning of the third
quarter.
The Pre-processing and Heat Treatment business areas were merged in April to
form the Machines business area.
Personnel
Henrik Reims was appointed Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing as of
1 April 2009. The Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing's area of
responsibility includes One-Stop-Partner deliveries. Topi Saarenhovi was
appointed Senior Vice President of the Machines business area as of 22 April
2009 and Manne Tiensuu as Glaston's Senior Vice President, Human Resources as of
15 May 2009.
On 30 June 2009, Glaston had a total of 1,282 (1,529) employees. Of the Group's
employees, 24% worked in Finland and 51% elsewhere in Europe, 1% in the MEAI
area, 10% in Asia and 14% in the Americas. The average number of employees was
1,402 (1,492).

Glaston Corporation's paid and registered share capital
on 30 June 2009 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 the review
period, the company held 838,582 of the company's own shares (treasury shares),

Meeting. The share has no nominal value. The counter book value of each share is
EUR 0.16.
On 30 June 2009, the market capitalisation of the company's shares, treasury
shares excluded, was EUR 83.2 (243.5) million.
During the six months of the year, a total of around 3.9 million of the
company's shares were traded, representing 5.0% of the average number of shares.
The lowest price paid for a share was EUR 0.92 and the highest price EUR 1.44.

Authorisations given by the Annual General Meeting
The Annual General Meeting of Glaston Corporation held on 17 March 2009
authorised the Board of Directors to decide on the acquisition of the company's
own shares up to a maximum of 7,000,000 shares. The shares may be acquired to
improve the capital structure of the company and/or to be used as consideration
in future acquisitions or other arrangements that are part of company's business
or as part of the company's share-based incentive scheme, or to finance
investments. The shares acquired for the company may be held, cancelled or
conveyed. The authorisation is valid for 18 months from the decision of 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 own shares held by the company.
The authorisation applies to maximum of 7,800,000 shares. The new shares may be
issued and own shares held by the company conveyed either against payment or
without payment. The shares may be issued and/or conveyed to the company's
shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholdings in the company or in
exemption to the pre-emptive subscription right of shareholders. 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 the issue of shares without payment also to
the company itself. The number of shares to be issued to the company combined
with the number of shares acquired for the company under the share acquisition
authorisation may not exceed 1/10 of the total number of 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 authorisation was valid until the end of the 2011
Annual General Meeting.
Decisions of the Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders
The Extraordinary Meeting
of Shareholders of Glaston Corporation, held on 8 June 2009, authorised the
Board of Directors to decide of the issuing of shares and the issuing of special
rights granting entitlement to shares, referred to in Chapter 10 Section 1 of
the Companies Act.
The number of shares to be issued under the authorisation may not exceed a total
of 25,000,000 shares. If all shares that may be issued under the authorisation
were issued, the number of shares issued would correspond to approximately 24%
of all the shares in the company.
The Board of Directors shall decide on the conditions of the issuing of shares
and of special rights granting entitlement to shares. The authorisation concerns
both the issuing of new shares as well as the conveyance of treasury shares. The
issuing of shares and of special rights granting entitlement to shares may be
carried out in exception to shareholders' pre-emptive rights.
The authorisation is effective until the next Annual General Meeting, however no
longer than 30 June 2010, and it cancelled the authorisation to decide on the
issuing of shares given by the Annual General Meeting on 17 March 2009.
Convertible bond
On 16 June 2009, the Board of Directors decided, based on the authorisation
granted by the Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders, to issue a convertible
bond up to a maximum principal of EUR 30,000,000, divided into negotiable
promissory notes of nominal value EUR 50,000. The bond was issued in exception
to the shareholders' pre-emptive subscription rights to investors selected by
the Board of Directors. The bond was subscribed to a total of EUR 23,750,000 and
the Board of Directors approved the subscriptions on 17 June 2009. The bond
strengthens the company's financial position, optimises the capital structure
and facilitates investments. The terms and conditions of the convertible bond
were presented in a stock exchange release dated 16 June 2009.
Uncertainties and risks in the near future
Due to the global financial crisis, Glaston's market has changed. The economic
recession has aversely affected customers' investment opportunities. The impact
has been particularly strong on One-Stop-Partner orders.
Owing to the recession, demand for glass processing machines will continue to be
weak. Customers' financing difficulties mean that orders will be postponed and
those already confirmed may be cancelled. Customers' financial situation also
impacts on the collection of receivables and on credit losses.
Risks relating to raw materials have decreased. Raw material prices have
levelled off and subcontracting capacity problems have nearly disappeared.
If the international financial crisis is extended and the recover of the sector
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 shareholders' equity.
A more detailed review of Glaston's risks has been presented in the 2008
financial statements.
Events after the review period
On 5 August 2009, Glaston Corporation's Board of Directors appointed Arto
Metsänen, M.Sc. Mining Engineering and Mineral Processing, as the company's new
President & CEO.
Metsänen will assume his new position on 1 September 2009. Mika Seitovirta
resigned from the post of President & CEO on 5 August 2009. Chief Financial
Officer Kimmo Lautanen will handle the duties of the company's President & CEO
tasks in the period 6 August-31 August 2009.
Outlook
The quiet market will continue to impact strongly on Glaston's business,
and adjustment of operations to the market situation will continue. The
cornerstones of Glaston's business remain the architectural glass segment and
the solar energy markets.
Market prospects for the early part of the year were poor. The first signs of a
recovery of the market were perceptible at the end of the second quarter. Demand
for glass processing machines in the latter part of the year is, however, very
difficult to forecast in the present uncertain economic climate. Any possible
recovery is not expected to influence Glaston's financial performance in the
current year.
Due to a weak order book in early 2009 and exceptionally low demand, Glaston
still expects 2009 net sales to fall short of the 2008 level. Due to the
reduced order book in the first quarter, third quarter net sales are expected to
be low, and the July-September operating result is expected to be a loss.

Applying revised IAS 23 Borrowing Costs changed Glaston's accounting principles
from 1 January 2009. From that date on the borrowing costs that are directly
attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying
asset are capitalized to the acquisition cost of the asset. The capitalization
will apply mainly to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.
Applying IFRS 8 Operating Segments did not have any material effect on the
financial information of Glaston.
Other new or amended standards or interpretations are not material for Glaston
Group.
DIVESTMENTS
Glaston's subsidiary Tamglass Glass Processing Ltd. sold in March its
insulated and architectural glass processing operations to INTERPANE Glass Oy.
INTERPANE Glass Oy began its operations on 1 April, 2009. The divested
operations had net sales of approximately EUR 14 million in 2008 and 93
employees at the end of March. The personnel were transferred to INTERPANE Glass
Oy.
The transaction was an asset deal, consisting of, among others, tangible assets
and inventory. The deal was financed mainly through vendor financing given by
Glaston. Glaston also invested EUR 1.8 million in the equity of INTERPANE Glass
Oy. In addition, Glaston is committed to invest additional EUR 1.0 million in
INTERPANE's equity. Also the other party of the transaction is committed to make
additional investments in INTERPANE's equity.
INTERPANE Glass Oy is a company owned jointly by Georg F. Hesselbach through his
company A A A Glass & Design Finland Oy, and a subsidiary of Glaston
Corporation. The shareholders of INTERPANE Glass Oy have entered into a
shareholders' agreement which incorporates put and call options enabling the
shareholders to rearrange their ownership shares in the company in the future.
The transaction has no material effect on Glaston's result.
INTERPANE Glass Oy is a joint venture of Glaston, and it is consolidated in
Glaston's consolidated financial statements using the equity method.
Glaston continues its production of solar reflectors in Akaa, Finland, employing
approximately 30 persons.
CHANGES IN JOINT VENTURES
The Chinese company Sanhe AAA Tools Co. was consolidated in 2008 as a joint
venture using the equity method and not as a subsidiary despite of the 70 per
cent ownership of Glaston, because Glaston was not considered to have control of
the company. From 1 January, 2009, Sanhe AAA Tools Co. has been consolidated as
a subsidiary as Glaston has gained control of the company.
INTERPANE Glass Oy became a joint venture of Glaston on 31 March, 2009.

A customer of the US subsidiary Glaston USA, Inc. had made a claim of
approximately USD 22 million due to a sale of a machine in 2004. The arbitration
proceeding initiated by the customer against the US subsidiary Glaston USA, Inc.
was concluded in April. Majority of the customer's claim were denied. The matter
has no material effect on Glaston's 2009 result, because it was included in 2008
result, but the compensation paid by Glaston has affected Glaston's cash flow.
The Group recognized a tax refund of approximately EUR 2 million in 2006 after
having received an affirmative decision according to which the expenses arising
from the management incentive scheme of the Group are deductible in taxation.
The tax authorities of the Tax Office for Major Corporations appealed against
the decision to the Administrative Court of Helsinki. Administrative Court of
Helsinki decided the case on Glaston's favour in January 2009. The decision is
final, since no appeal was made.

values of derivative instruments do not necessarily correspond with
the actual cash flows between the counterparties and do not therefore give a
fair view of the risk position of the Group. The fair values are based on market
valuation on the date of reporting.
