The company's outlook published in the financial statement release on 25 February 2011 is unchanged. MARKET SITUATION 1 JANUARY - 30 SEPTEMBER 2011 Finnish foreign trade and Nurminen Logistics' most important market, trade between Finland and the CIS countries, developed favourably. However, the competitive situation remained challenging especially due to increase of the Russian railway tariffs. The increase had a negative effect on price competitiveness of railway transports. In the spring the strike of the Finnish paper industry's office workers affected company's demand and transported volumes negatively. During the third quarter especially the railway export to the CIS countries developed positively. Both demand and volumes improved in railway transports compared to 2010 except for the drop in April. The special and heavy transportation market did not develop as positively as expected although the demand situation was better than in the comparable period in 2010. Also the harbour logistics market remained challenging although there was slight increase in demand as of the end of the second quarter. Demand of the forest industry improved compared to 2010. Also the demand of mechanical engineering industry improved compared to 2010, but the price competition remained intense especially in project transportations. NET SALES AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE 1 JANUARY- 30 SEPTEMBER 2011 The net sales for the review period amounted to EUR 57.2 (2010: 51.1) million. Compared to the corresponding period last year the increase of the net sales was 11.9%. Reported operating result was EUR 938 (233) thousand. The increase was 301.8%. Operating result includes non-recurring items of EUR 363 (1,301) thousand. Therefore, comparable operating result was EUR 575 thousand. Compared to the corresponding period last year the increase was 153.8%. The non-recurring item in 2010 was a result of the company's decision to give up its purchase option and first refusal right to the logistics centre in Vuosaari as published on 18 June 2009. The company has a long-term lease agreement in Vuosaari. The non-recurring item in the review period was a result of a partial payment of a receivable written down in the financial statements 2010. The growth of net sales was based on the recovery of demand especially in the rail transport exports from Finland to the CIS countries. Also the demand of mechanical engineering industry's clientele developed positively in all market segments. In the company's harbour logistics services the development was varying. In Kotka and Hamina the transit volumes to the CIS countries are still on a low level although the situation improved during the second half of the review period. In Vuosaari the volumes started to grow during the review period as a result of new customer agreements. Operating result improved towards the end of the review period. This was mainly due to improved demand situation and the personnel savings agreed in the co-determination negotiations carried out at the end of 2010. The losses of the Vuosaari logistics centre decreased towards the end of the review period, but remained on a significant level. The losses are due to the pre-economic crisis signed expensive lease agreement of the logistics centre and the customer structure of the centre. The lease of the Vuosaari logistics centre increased in the review period according to the lease agreement by EUR 0.4 million compared to the corresponding period in 2010. In the review period the operating loss of the Vuosaari logistics centre was EUR 2.4 (2.3) million. Due to the intense price competition the result of the special and heavy transport services did not develop as expected. The operating profit of the company's operations in the Baltic countries weakened as expected by EUR 0.6 million compared to the corresponding period of 2010. However, the operating result of the operations in the Baltic countries improved towards the end of the review period. The personnel cost savings based on the results of the co-determination negotiations held in 2010 were in the review period EUR 1.0 million, in line with the target. The depreciation of the Russian rouble during the review period decreased the company's financial result by EUR 0.6 million. This exchange rate loss had no cash flow impact. NET SALES AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF THE THIRD QUARTER The 2011 third quarter net sales amounted to EUR 20.9 (2010: 18.7) million. Compared to the corresponding period last year the increase of the net sales was 11.4%. Reported operating result was EUR 1.377 (816) thousand. The operating result increased by 68.8%. Operating result includes non-recurring profits EUR 115 (2010: 434) thousand. Therefore comparative operating result increased 230.4% compared to the corresponding period last year. The non-recurring item in 2010 was a result of the company's decision to give up its purchase option and first refusal right to the logistics centre in Vuosaari as published on 18 June 2009. The company has a long-term lease agreement in Vuosaari. The non-recurring item in the third quarter 2011 was a result of a partial payment of a receivable written down in the financial statements 2010. Net sales continued to grow. Demand situation recovered in railway transportations, terminal services and forwarding services. Also the demand for special and project transports services recovered during the third quarter although not as strongly as expected. In harbours the transit volumes were growing slightly in Hamina and Kotka due to the slight growth in demand and new customer contracts. However, in Vuosaari logistics centre the volume growth stabilized mainly due to decrease in paper exports towards the end of the review period. In Vuosaari the profitability continued to be burdened by the intense price competition and the high cost level. The depreciation of the Russian rouble during the third quarter decreased the company's financial result by EUR 0.7 million. This exchange rate loss had no cash flow impact. OUTLOOK The company's outlook published in the financial statement release on 25 February 2011 is unchanged. The net sales of the company are expected to increase by approximately 10% in 2011 compared to 2010. The company's operating result is expected to be slightly better than in 2010. The company's unchanged long-term goal is to increase its net sales annually by approximately 20% on average, including acquisitions, and to reach an operating profit level of over 7%. The general economic situation is assessed to delay achieving of the growth objectives in the short term. The company is actively following the structural changes in the logistics market as well as acquisition opportunities. SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Increased uncertainty in the world economy might result in lower industrial production volumes and as a consequence to cancellation of company's orders. Especially unfavorable development of Russian and other CIS markets would have a negative effect on company's net sales and result development. Over-capacity of Finnish ports maintains tough price competition. The company operates in Vuosaari, Kotka and Hamina harbours and therefore the volume development of those harbours is relevant to the company. Volume development is effected, among other things, by development of the transit trade that decreased during the recession. Its outlook is unclear at the moment. The railway tariff changes of different countries might affect the price competitiveness of rail transports significantly. In addition, price competition situation might burden the company's profitability also in the future. Weaker than expected volume growth of foreign trade would burden the development of the company's net sales and profitability. FINANCIAL POSITION AND BALANCE SHEET Company's cash flow from operations was EUR 3,726 thousand. Cash flow from investments was EUR -429 thousand. Cash flow from financing activities amounted to EUR -3,949 thousand. At the end of the review period, cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 1,863 thousand. Liquidity improved during the second quarter as a result of new financing agreements and was good. Group's interest bearing debt was EUR 29.0 million and correspondingly the net interest bearing debt was EUR 27.1 million. Balance sheet totaled EUR 70.1 million and equity ratio was 39.0%.
