RAUTE CORPORATION – INTERIM REPORT JANUARY 1–JUNE 30, 2012
- The Group’s net sales, EUR 37.5 million (MEUR 37.8), remained at the level of the comparison period. The order intake almost doubled to EUR 76 million (MEUR 39).
- Operating profit was EUR 0.1 million positive (MEUR -0.6). Result before taxes was EUR 0.1 million positive (MEUR -0.8).
- Earnings per share (undiluted) were EUR -0.05 (EUR -0.19).
- Net sales for the second quarter were EUR 22.4 million and the operating profit EUR 0.6 million. Order intake was EUR 15 million and the order book at the end of the reporting period was EUR 73 million.
- The outlook for financial performance remains unchanged. Net sales in 2012 will increase significantly on the comparison year and the operating profit will be clearly positive.
Tapani Kiiski, President and CEO: Profit development met expectations
The second quarter of the year in progress met our expectations. The strong order book generated almost 50 percent higher net sales compared to the first quarter and the operating profit for the second quarter was positive. We are still presently at the same level in terms of net sales as in the previous year but our result is better and we have achieved a positive operating result.
Almost EUR 50 million in project deliveries from our strong order book have been planned for the second half of the year, which is nearly twice that of the first half of the year. The focus of the load is shifting from planning to production and start-up resources and to our cooperation partners. We are now in a situation in which we can truly show our expertise and delivery ability, which we have maintained even in difficult years.
The year has proceeded and will continue to proceed in an uncertain market situation. The development of technology services has, however, been positive compared to the first quarter. Construction activity in the main markets of our customers is still on a low level and therefore our customers do not need to make any significant capacity-increasing investments. Various types of projects are underway but the uneasy money market and demand situation make their implementation and the timing of their start-ups uncertain.
A strong order book provides Raute with a clearly positive result and the opportunity to focus our efforts on the implementation of our strategy and on development projects which will guarantee us a better position to meet the challenges of the changing markets and, on the other hand, the opportunities presented by the improving markets when the global economy regains its stability.
SECOND QUARTER OF 2012
Order intake and order book
Order intake during the second quarter was on a low level, totaling EUR 15 million (MEUR 9). Technology services accounted for EUR 8 million (MEUR 4) of the order intake, increasing by one third from the first quarter. The volume of new orders remained at a low level as several projects which were expected to be realized in the second quarter were delayed due to the uncertainties related to the market development and financing.
The most significant new orders were an automatic drying-grading line to Russia and a pressing line and dryer to Poland.
The order book fell by EUR 9 million during the second quarter but remained on a high level at EUR 73 million (MEUR 35).
Net sales
Second-quarter net sales amounted to EUR 22.4 million (MEUR 23.1). Net sales increased from the first quarter by 48 percent.
Technology services accounted for 34 percent of total net sales (26%).
Result and profitability
Second-quarter operating profit was EUR 0.6 million positive (MEUR 0.8 positive) and accounted for 3 percent (4%) of net sales. The second quarter result was EUR 0.3 million positive (MEUR 0.5 positive), and earnings per share were EUR 0.07 (EUR 0.13).
RAUTE CORPORATION – INTERIM REPORT JANUARY 1–JUNE 30, 2012
BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
Market situation in customer industries
Raute’s customers in the veneer, plywood and LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber) industries are engaged in the manufacture of wood products used in investment commodities and are thus highly affected by fluctuations in construction, housing-related consumption, international trade, and transportation.
Significant uncertainty is still associated with the development of the global economy and financial markets due to the hazards of growing debt among a few European countries and the threats associated with the development of the United States’ economy. For Raute’s customer industries, the market situation has continued to be uncertain in a number of market areas.
Demand for wood products technology and technology services
The plywood industry’s improvement investments to ensure quality and cost competitiveness as well as maintain market shares have remained at a low level during the first part of the year.
Several large projects encompassing single production lines and mill-scale deliveries under planning and negotiation are pending. Customers will decide on and realize these projects only once they are more confident that demand has recovered permanently and once financing for the projects can be arranged.
ORDER INTAKE AND ORDER BOOK
Raute serves the wood products industry with a full-service concept based on service which encompasses the entire life cycle of the delivered equipment. Raute’s business consists of project deliveries and technology services. Project deliveries comprise complete production machinery for new mills, production lines and individual machines and equipment. Additionally, Raute’s full-service concept includes comprehensive technology services ranging from spare parts deliveries to regular maintenance and equipment modernizations as well as consulting, training and reconditioned machinery.
The order intake during the reporting period was at a very high level totaling EUR 76 million (MEUR 39). 69 percent of orders received came from South America (7%), 13 percent from Europe (25%), 12 percent from Russia (59%), 4 percent from North America (7%) and 2 percent from the Asia-Pacific area (2%). The considerable changes in the shares of the different market areas result mainly from the effects of mill-scale deliveries.
The most significant transaction during the reporting period consisted of orders received in February, equaling more than EUR 50 million, for the machinery and equipment for a plywood mill for Paneles Arauco S.A. in Chile. The machinery and equipment will be delivered mainly during the latter part of 2012 for the rebuilding of the Nueva Aldea plywood mill which burned down at the beginning of January.
Technology services accounted for EUR 13 million (MEUR 11) of the order intake and increased by 13 percent.
The order book increased during the reporting period by EUR 37 million, amounting to EUR 73 million at the end of the period (MEUR 35). More than EUR 19 million of the order book is estimated to be recognized as net sales in 2013.
COMPETITIVE POSITION
Raute’s competitive position is good. Raute’s solutions help customers in securing their ability to deliver and provide service throughout the life cycle of the product. In such investments, the supplier’s overall expertise and extensive and diverse technology offering play a key role. The competitive edge provided by Raute is also a major draw when customers select their cooperation partners. Raute’s strong financial position and its long-term dedication to serving selected customer industries also enhance its credibility and improve its competitive position as an executor of long-term investment projects.
NET SALES
The net sales for the reporting period, EUR 37.5 million (MEUR 37.8), equaled the level of the comparison period.
South America’s share of the net sales rose to 36 percent (6%). Europe’s share of total net sales was 29 percent (26%), Russia’s 20 percent (33%), North America’s 11 percent (10%) and Asia-Pacific’s 4 percent (25%).
Net sales for technology services increased 4 percent on the comparison period, accounting for 37 percent (33%) of total net sales.
RESULT AND PROFITABILITY
Operating profit for the reporting period was EUR 0.1 million positive (MEUR 0.6 negative) and accounted for 0 percent (-2%) of net sales.
The result before taxes for the reporting period was EUR 0.1 million positive (MEUR 0.8 negative) and the result EUR 0.2 million negative (MEUR 0.7 negative). Earnings per share (undiluted) were EUR -0.05 (EUR -0.19).
CASH FLOW AND BALANCE SHEET
The Group’s financial position is good. At the end of the reporting period, gearing was -60 percent (-36%) and equity ratio 45 percent (50%). Other fluctuations in balance sheet orking capital items and the key figures based on them are due to differences in the timing of customer payments and the cost accumulation from project deliveries, which is typical of the project business.
The Group’s cash and cash equivalents, including financial assets recognized at fair value through profit or loss, amounted to EUR 25.8 million (MEUR 19.1) at the end of the reporting period. Operating cash flow was EUR +4.4 million (MEUR -0.8). Cash flow from investment activities was EUR -1.1 million (MEUR -0.6). Cash flow from financing activities was EUR -3.2 million (MEUR -3.3), including dividend payments of EUR 1.2 million and loan repayments of EUR 2.0 million.
Interest-bearing liabilities amounted to EUR 13.4 million (MEUR 11.1) at the end of the reporting period.

Raute deviates from the Code’s recommendation 22 on appointing members to the Appointments Committee in that one member to the Committee is elected from outside the Board of Directors, as per the company’s Administrative Instructions, from among the representatives of major shareholders who have significant voting rights. The Board views this exception as justified, taking into consideration the company’s ownership structure and the possibility to consider the expectations of major shareholders as early as in the preparation phase of selecting members of the Board of Directors.
Raute deviates from recommendation 9 on the number, composition and competence of the directors in that the company does not have both genders represented on the Board.

The authorized public accounting company PricewaterhouseCoopers was chosen as auditor with Authorized Public Accountant Janne Rajalahti as the principal auditor.
The Annual General Meeting decided that the remuneration paid to the Chairman of the Board will continue to be EUR 40,000 and to the Vice-Chairman of the Board and Board members EUR 20,000 for the term of office and that the Board members’ traveling expenses will be compensated in accordance with the company’s travel policy. The auditors’ remuneration will be paid on the basis of reasonable invoicing.
The Annual General Meeting decided to amend Article 12 of the Articles of Association so that the Annual General Meeting is convened through a stock exchange release. The Annual General Meeting also authorized the Board of Directors to decide on the repurchase of the company’s series A shares with assets from the company’s non-restricted equity and a directed issue of a maximum of 400,000 of these shares. In addition, the Annual General Meeting decided to decrease the share premium fund as shown in the company’s balance sheet on December 31, 2011 by transferring all of the assets of EUR 6.5 million in the share premium fund into the invested non-restricted equity fund.

EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
On July 30, 2012, Raute Corporation received an order worth total EUR 14 million from the German company Pollmeier Furnierwerkstoffe GmbH & Co.KG. The order comprises a peeling line, a drying line and an LVL lay-up line. The ordered equipment will be delivered in the spring 2013. The order received is not included in the June 30, 2012 order book.
BUSINESS RISKS
Risks in the near term continue to be driven by the global economic situation and the uncertainty concerning its development. During the reporting period, there have been no essential changes in the business risks described in the 2011 Board of Directors’ report and financial statements. The most significant risks for Raute in the near term are related to the record-high load on production and start-up resources during the second half of the year, as well as the development of demand and the order book after the delivery of the present strong order book has taken place.
OUTLOOK FOR 2012
Raute’s business operations are characterized by the sensitivity of investment demand to cyclical fluctuations in the global economy and the financial markets.
Significant uncertainty is still associated with the development of the global economy and financial markets due to the hazards of growing debt among a few European countries and the threats associated with the development of the United States’ economy. The market situation for Raute’s customer industries is expected to remain uncertain.
However, improvement investments in the plywood industry to ensure quality and cost competitiveness and maintain market shares are expected to be at a reasonable level in the near future, provided that the economic uncertainty does not spiral into a new crisis.
Production line and mill-scale investment projects are being planned in several market areas. The implementation and timing of these projects will depend on prospective investors’ confidence that the market for wood products will remain at a reasonable level and on the arrangement of financing for customer projects in some market areas.
Thanks to its strong financial and market position and the development measures it has carried out, Raute is well positioned to respond to growing demand once the markets recover. The implemented adaptation measures have led to a lighter cost structure and business is more profitable than before, even in a difficult market situation.
No changes have occurred in the outlook for the whole of 2012. Due to a strong order book and projects in the negotiation phase, net sales in 2012 will increase significantly on the comparison year and the operating profit will be clearly positive.

2. Accounting principles
Raute Corporation’s Interim financial report for January 1 – June 30, 2012 has been prepared in accordance with standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The Interim financial report does not contain full notes and other information presented in the financial statements, and therefore the Interim financial report should be read in conjunction with the Financial statements published for 2011.
Raute Corporation’s Interim financial report for January 1 – June 30, 2012 has been prepared in accordance with international financial statement standards (International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS) as adopted by the European Union, and preparations have complied with the IAS and IFRS standards, as well as SIC and IFRIC interpretations, effective on June 30, 2012. The notes to the Interim financial statements also comply with Finnish accounting legislation. The presented Interim financial report figures have not been audited.
The Interim financial report has been prepared according to the same accounting principles as those applied in the Annual financial statements for 2011 except for the certain new or revised standards, interpretations and amendments which the Group has applied as of January 1, 2012. The impact of the new and revised standards has been presented in the Annual financial statements for 2011. The adoption of these standards has not had an impact on the Interim financial report.
All the monetary figures presented in the Interim financial report are in thousand euros, unless otherwise stated. Due to the rounding of the figures in the financial statement tables, the sums of figures may deviate from the sum total presented in the table. Figures in parentheses refer to the corresponding figures in the comparison period.
The preparation of Interim financial report according to IFRS standards requires management to use estimates and assumptions in the process of applying the accounting principles. Because estimates and assumptions are based on management's best knowledge at the reporting date, they comprise risks and uncertainties. The actual results may therefore differ from these estimates.

Large delivery projects can temporarily increase the shares of various customers of the Group’s net sales to more than ten percent. At the end of the period, the Group had three customers (2), whose share of the Group's net sales temporarily exceeded ten percent.
