RAUTE CORPORATION INTERIM REPORT 28 OCTOBER 2010 AT 9:00 A.M.
RAUTE CORPORATION - INTERIM REPORT JANUARY 1 - SEPTEMBER 30, 2010
- The Group's net sales, EUR 49.5 million (MEUR 29.0), increased 71% on the
comparison period.
- The operating profit was EUR +3.6 million (MEUR -6.4) and the result before
taxes EUR +3.5 million (MEUR -6.4). The result benefited from a EUR 4.4 million
profit from a real estate sale.
- Earnings per share (undiluted) were EUR +0.76 (EUR -1.31).
- The order intake was EUR 46 million (MEUR 16). The order book fell and stood
at EUR 20 million (MEUR 11) at the end of the reporting period.
- Net sales for the third quarter were EUR 19.5 million and the operating profit
EUR 4.9 million. Excluding the profit from the real estate sale, the operating
profit was EUR +0.5 million.
- The outlook for net sales and profit remained unchanged. Net sales for the
entire year 2010 will increase and the operating profit will be positive. The
operating profit for the fourth quarter will be in the negative due to the
weakened order book and the resulting lower net sales for 2010.
MR. TAPANI KIISKI, PRESIDENT AND CEO: MORE CHALLENGES IN THE SHORT TERM
In the third quarter, our order book enabled a reasonable level of net sales,
and we achieved a positive operating result from our operative activities. The
result shows that our operations are competitive and profitable if demand
remains at least at a moderate level. In the third quarter, we completed the
operational reorganization measures in North America involving the move to new
premises and the sale of the old factory facility. We received a considerable
profit from the sale of the real estate, thanks to which we achieved a positive
operating profit for the first three quarters of the year.
There have been no essential changes in the market situation. Several
substantial projects are under negotiation, but our customers' investment
decisions have been further delayed and the order intake remained low. Until
now, we have adjusted to the reduced demand, regarding it as a temporary
phenomenon. We have operated at this low level for two years now, but mainly by
implementing temporary adjustment measures. We will now adapt our operations to
the new, lower level of demand on a more permanent basis. Therefore, in early
October we initiated employee negotiations in accordance with the Act on
Co-operation within Undertakings on adapting the operations of our Finnish
units. Our aim is to adjust our operational structure to ensure that our
operations are competitive and profitable in the long term, even during periods
of weakened demand.
Our challenge for the remaining part of the year lies in the low order book. Our
main goals for the fourth quarter are to strengthen the order book and implement
the above-mentioned operational model aimed at lower overhead costs. However,
our order book for the rest of the year is weak and any new orders received will
not have a significant effect on net sales recorded for this year.
RAUTE CORPORATION - INTERIM REPORT JANUARY 1 - SEPTEMBER 30, 2010
BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
Market situation in customer industries
Raute's customers in the plywood and LVL industries are engaged in the
manufacturing of wood products used in investment commodities and thus highly
affected by fluctuations in the fields of construction, housing-related
consumption, international trade, and transportation.
The recovery of global economic growth is still slow and uncertain. The
difficult situation faced by the construction and transport industries
continues. The demand for wood products remained at a low level in all market
areas that are important to Raute. However, the demand has picked up compared
with the corresponding period last year. The most successful mills have improved
their capacity utilization rates, whereas some mills are still adjusting their
production volumes to the lower demand by shortening their workweek and
implementing shutdowns of varied duration. Production is still shut down at the
plywood mills with the poorest profitability and the lowest efficiency.
Demand for wood products technology and technology services
Due to the low demand for wood products and the uncertain market outlook,
investment activity in the plywood industry has remained at a low level in all
market areas. Investment decisions on projects under planning and negotiations
have been further delayed. Investments in the LVL industry, which is dependent
solely on construction industry activity, remain at a low level in all market
areas. The challenges of the financing markets in the emerging markets that are
important to Raute and the conditions of long-term financing continue to
restrict the investments of Raute's customers.
Demand for maintenance and spare parts services will not improve before
long-term recovery of the capacity utilization rates in plywood production.
ORDER INTAKE AND ORDER BOOK
Raute's business consists of providing project deliveries and technology
services to the wood products industry. Project deliveries encompass complete
mills, production lines, and individual machines and equipment. Technology
services include maintenance, spare parts services, equipment modernization,
consulting, training, and reconditioned machinery.
The order intake for the reporting period, EUR 46 million (MEUR 16), was at good
level, considering the market situation. 49 percent of orders received came from
the Asia-Pacific area, 26 from Europe, 14 percent from North America, 8 percent
from Russia and 3 percent from other market areas. Technology services accounted
for EUR 12 million (MEUR 11) of the order intake.
The order intake in the third quarter amounted to EUR 12 million (MEUR 5). The
most significant new orders were an LVL line in Malaysia and a peeling line in
Romania. The low number of new orders was due to uncertainty concerning the
development in the wood products market and the resulting postponement of
investment decisions.
The order book weakened during the reporting period due to lower order intake,
amounting to EUR 20 million (MEUR 11) at the end of the period.
COMPETITIVE POSITION
There have been no essential changes in Raute's competitive position, and thus
Raute will be competitive when demand recovers. Customers appreciate
comprehensive competence and strong technology development in their strategic
investments aimed at ensuring their ability to deliver and provide service and
to improve their competitiveness. The competitive edge provided by Raute's
technology plays an important role when customers select their suppliers.
Raute's strong financial position also enhances its credibility and improves its
competitive position as an executor of long-term investment projects.
NET SALES
Net sales for the reporting period totaled EUR 49.5 million (MEUR 29.0), up by
71 percent on the comparison period. The increase in net sales was mainly due to
two large orders received in December 2009 and January 2010.
Net sales were generated exclusively by project deliveries and technology
services related to the wood products technology business. Technology services
accounted for 28 percent (34%) of net sales for the reporting period.
Russia's share of total net sales was 34 percent (25%), Asia-Pacific's
30 percent (6%), Europe's 16 percent (53%), North America's 16 percent (6%), and
South America's 4 percent (9%).
Third-quarter net sales were EUR 19.5 million (MEUR 8.1).
RESULT AND PROFITABILITY
The two large new orders received in December and January started to show in the
production workload and net sales growth during March. The Group's profitability
during the reporting period improved substantially over the comparison period
thanks to increased net sales and operational reorganization measures. Operating
profit for the reporting period was EUR 3.6 million in the positive (MEUR 6.4
negative) and accounted for +7 percent (-22%) of net sales. The operating profit
benefited from a EUR 4.4 million profit from a real estate sale.
The operating result from operative activities for the reporting period was EUR
0.8 million in the negative. The operating profit for the reporting period
includes one-time costs totaling EUR 0.8 million from the transfer of production
operations from Jyväskylä to the main production plant in Nastola and relocation
of the Canadian unit.
The result before taxes for the reporting period was EUR 3.5 million in the
positive (MEUR 6.4 negative). The result for the reporting period was
EUR 3.0 million in the positive (MEUR 5.3 negative). Earnings per share
(undiluted) were EUR +0.76 (EUR -1.31).
Operating profit for the third quarter was EUR 4.9 million in the positive (MEUR
2.3 negative). The operating profit included a profit before taxes of EUR 4.4
million realized from a real estate sale. The third-quarter result was
EUR 4.1 million (MEUR -1.8), and undiluted earnings per share were EUR +1.02
(EUR -0.45), and diluted earnings per share EUR +1.00 (EUR -0.45).
Operating result from operative activities for the third quarter was
EUR 0.5 million in the positive (MEUR 2.3 negative) and accounted for +3 percent
(-28%) of net sales.
CASH FLOW AND BALANCE SHEET
The Group's financial position is good. At the end of the reporting period,
gearing was -19 percent (-25%) and the equity ratio 50 percent (59%). The
fluctuation in balance sheet items and the key figures based on them is a result
of differences in the timing of customer payments and the cost accumulation from
project deliveries, which is typical of project business.
Raute's liquid assets stood at EUR 21.3 million (MEUR 16.0) at the end of the
reporting period. The price of the real estate sale was included in accounts
receivables and other receivables in the balance sheet at the end of the
reporting period. Operating cash flow in the reporting period was
EUR -3.1 million (MEUR -0.8). Cash flow from investment activities totaled
EUR -0.7 million (MEUR -0.5). Cash flow from financing activities was
EUR -2.6 million (MEUR -3.9) including a TyEL loan installment of
EUR 2.0 million.
Interest-bearing liabilities amounted to EUR 16.5 million (MEUR 9.5) at the end
of the reporting period, with TyEL loans accounting for EUR 16.0 million
(MEUR 9.0) Unused long-term credit limits amounted to EUR 5 million (MEUR 14).
The company additionally has a EUR 10 million (MEUR 10) commercial paper
program.
EVENTS DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD
Raute Canada Ltd., a Raute Group company, sold its factory facility in the
Vancouver area in Canada. Raute Group received other operating income of EUR 4.4
million from the real estate sale.
DEVELOPMENT OF OPERATIONS
Raute's Canadian unit moved to newly leased facilities in the Vancouver area
that are better configured to serve the needs of the current operational model.
In conjunction with the relocation, production investments were carried out to
improve productivity and shorten delivery times.
Raute Corporation's quality system was re-audited, and it was awarded an
ISO 2001:2008 quality certificate in September.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
Research and development costs totaled EUR 1.2 million (MEUR 1.9) in the
reporting period, representing 2.3 percent (6.6%) of net sales.
Investments totaled EUR 1.8 million (MEUR 0.6) during the reporting period and
were mainly targeted at reorganization and developing production in the Canadian
unit. The investments include capitalized development costs worth EUR 17
thousand (EUR 108 thousand).
PERSONNEL
The Group's headcount at the end of the reporting period was 511 (530). Group
companies outside Finland accounted for 25 percent (23%) of employees.
The number of personnel was adjusted during the reporting period by 15 percent
(18%) and the Group's entire personnel was affected by temporary lay-offs of
varied duration and other adjustment arrangements. Converted to full-time
employees (“effective headcount”), the average number of employees was 439
(446).

The number of Raute Corporation's shares at the end of the reporting period
totaled 4,004,758, of which 991,161 were series K shares (ordinary share,
20 votes/share) and 3,013,597 series A shares (1 vote/share). The shares have a
nominal value of two euros.

Corporation has signed a market making agreement with Nordea Bank Finland Plc in

EUR 32.8 million (MEUR 35.0), with series K shares valued at the closing price
of series A shares on September 30, 2010, that is EUR 8.20 (EUR 8.75).
The Annual General Meeting authorized the Board of Directors on March 31, 2010
to decide on the repurchase of the company's series A shares with the company's
distributable assets and a directed issue of a maximum of 400,000 of these

DISTRIBUTION OF DIVIDEND FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR 2009
No dividend was paid for 2009.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Raute Corporation complies with the Finnish Corporate Governance Code 2010 for
listed companies approved by the Board of the Securities Market Association in
June 2010. Raute deviates from the recommendation 22 to elect members to the
Appointments Committee in that one member to the Committee is elected from
outside the Board of Directors, from among the major shareholders who have
significant voting rights. The Board views this exception as justified, when
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. An outline of
Raute Corporation's corporate governance principles and the company's
remuneration statement are presented on the company's website at www.raute.com.
Raute Corporation's Corporate Governance Statement 2009 has been drawn up
separately from the financial statements and is published on the company's
website.
BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND BOARD COMMITTEES
At Raute Corporation's Annual General Meeting on March 31, 2010, Mr. Erkki
Pehu-Lehtonen was elected Chairman of the Board for Raute Corporation, Ms.
Sinikka Mustakallio Vice-Chair and Mr. Risto Hautamäki, Mr. Ilpo Helander, Mr.
Mika Mustakallio and Mr. Pekka Suominen as Board members.
Based on the evaluation of independence, Chairman Erkki Pehu-Lehtonen and
members Risto Hautamäki, Ilpo Helander, Mika Mustakallio and Pekka Suominen are
independent of the company. Vice-Chair Sinikka Mustakallio, who chaired Raute's
Supervisory Board from 1996 to 1998 and has acted as a member of the Board since
1998, is dependent on the company. The Chairman of the Board (Erkki
Pehu-Lehtonen) and two Board members (Ilpo Helander and Risto Hautamäki) are
independent of major shareholders.
Raute Corporation's Board of Directors has an Appointments Committee and a
Working Committee. The Appointments Committee is chaired by Erkki Pehu-Lehtonen
and its members are Sinikka Mustakallio and Ville Korhonen, who has been elected
by the major shareholders from among themselves. The Working Committee is
chaired by Erkki Pehu-Lehtonen and its members are Sinikka Mustakallio and Risto
Hautamäki. The Audit Committee's tasks are handled by the Board of Directors.
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 2009
Board of Directors' report and financial statements. The most significant risks
for Raute in the near term relate to the order intake and order book and the
development of net sales and profitability as a result of them.
EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
In its stock exchange release issued on October 1, 2010, Raute Corporation
adjusted the profit outlook for 2010. Raute had previously estimated that net
sales for 2010 would increase and that the operating profit would improve from
2009. The company had also announced that achieving a positive operating profit
and its amount would depend on the order intake. In October, it was stated that
the finalized real estate sale improved the Group's profit prospects. In
addition, it was announced that net sales for the entire year 2010 would
increase and the operating result would be positive.
Raute Corporation will continue to adjust its operations to the continuing weak
and uncertain market situation. On October 8, 2010, the company initiated
negotiations in accordance with the Act on Co-operation within Undertakings on
adaptation measures with the salaried and senior salaried employees of its units
in Finland. The lower level of demand for investments and services in the wood
products industry is estimated to have become a more long-term situation, in
which efficient and competitive performance in operations requires also
permanent adaptation where personnel is concerned. The objective of the measures
is to adapt operations to the continuing weak market demand and the fluctuation
of the order book, and to improve profitability. The employer's proposal for
adjustment measures consists of temporary lay-offs and the termination of the
employment of a maximum of 25 employees. The negotiations are estimated to last
six weeks.
OUTLOOK FOR 2010
Due to the uncertainty related to the development of the global economy and
financial markets, the market situation of Raute's customer industries is
expected to continue to be uncertain. No permanent improvement is expected in
the demand for investments and services in the wood products industry in the
near future. Individual mill-scale investment projects, which customers are
already using as a means of preparing for the period following the present
recession, are, however, in the planning phase in many market areas, but they
involve uncertainties related to implementation and scheduling. In addition,
restructuring resulting from the difficult situation in the customer industries
may activate new investment projects.
Thanks to its strong financial position, market position and the implemented
development efforts, Raute's ability to survive the economic slowdown and to
respond to growing demand as soon as the markets recover will be excellent. The
objective of the current adjustment process is to improve the cost structure and
profitability even at a lower level of net sales.
The outlook for net sales and profit remained unchanged. Raute's net sales for
the entire year 2010 will increase, and the operating result will be positive
thanks to the real estate sale finalized in the third quarter. The operating
profit for the fourth quarter will be in the negative due to the weakened order
book and the resulting lower net sales for 2010.
