Outlook for 2011

We keep the outlook for 2011 unchanged. We estimate net sales to increase
slightly and the operating profit to improve somewhat over the 2010 level. 



Comments on Q3 by CEO Jukka Rinnevaara

The operator clientele of Video and Broadband Solutions continued to increase
the capacity of their networks and kept on investing in new services.
Year-on-year orders received by the business area picked up slightly while net
sales and operating profit increased significantly. In Q3, we enhanced our
production capacity to match the increased demand. The level of profitability
in Q3 was good. The first significant deliveries of the Luminato headend
solution to Russia started in the third quarter. Similarly, deliveries
involving optical equipment were on a sound level. 

Year-on-year orders received, net sales and operating profit of Network
Services increased significantly. Deliveries involving German network services
and UK network planning operations developed favorably. The development program
for the German services operations proceeded according to plan, but the costs
went up to some extent because of the limited availability of certain
subcontractor resources. 

The Group's Business in the Third Quarter of 2011

Net sales grew by 21.6% amounting to EUR 47.0 (38.6) million. Operating profit
stood at EUR 3.8 (2.0) million making 8.1% (5.1%) of the net sales. Undiluted
result per share was EUR 0.15 (0.07). Orders received stood at EUR 43.8 (39.9)
million, i.e. 9.8% above the period of comparison. Order backlog totaled EUR
21.4 (13.3) million. The increase in order backlog was mostly attributable to
the German market. 

Operating cash flow stood at EUR -0.5 (0.8) million. Inventories and short-term
receivables grew over the year of comparison. Increase in inventories over the
period of comparison by EUR 5.5 million was mainly due to incompleteness of
certain customer deliveries by Video and Broadband Solutions. Year-on-year
short-term receivables grew by EUR 8.7 million. This growth was mainly due to a
change in payment terms conducted in late 2010 by the German main client of our
Network Services. 

Group Operations - January to September 2011

Net sales grew by 7.4% amounting to EUR 130.2 (121.2) million. Operating profit
grew by 17.5% equaling EUR 5.2 (4.5) million. Undiluted result per share was
EUR 0.20 (0.15). Year-on-year orders received improved by 15.7% standing at EUR
134.6 (116.4) million. Operating cash flow stood at EUR -2.4 (4.5) million. 

Video and Broadband Solutions in Q3

Net sales grew by 20.2% amounting to EUR 23.9 (19.9) million. Operating profit
stood at EUR 3.4 (2.0) million making 14.3% (9.8%) of the net sales. Even
relative profitability improved as a result of the increase in net sales.
Orders received totaled EUR 22.3 (21.2) million. Order backlog totaled EUR 18.8
(13.3) million. 

R&D expenses for the business area amounted to EUR 2.8 (2.2) million making
11.7% (11.2%) of the area's net sales. Increase in R&D expenses was due to
investments in the Luminato video processing system and the video surveillance
transfer solution (standard H.264). Some 60% (60%) of product development
expenses involved further development of product platforms currently in
production, maintenance, and customer-specific product applications. Out of the
R&D expenses EUR 0.7 (0.4) million were capitalized, which involved mainly the
Luminato video processing system and the video surveillance transfer system in
line with standard H.264. Depreciation on activated R&D expenses amounted to
EUR 0.5 (0.6) million. 

Video and Broadband Solutions - January to September

Net sales grew by 4.8% amounting to EUR 62.0 (59.2) million. Operating profit
increased by 29.7% standing at EUR 5.2 (4.0) million making 8.3% (6.7%) of the
net sales. Product development expenses equaled EUR 8.6 (7.7), in other words
13.9% (12.9%) of the net sales. Orders received improved by 8.7% standing at
EUR 64.6 (59.5) million. 

Network Services in Q3

Net sales amounted to EUR 23.0 (18.7) million. Net sales grew in all target
markets of the business area. Operating profit stood at EUR 0.4 (0.03) million
making 1.6% (0.2%) of the net sales. The development program for the German
services operations proceeded according to plan, but the costs went up to some
extent because of the limited availability of certain subcontracting resources.
Orders received in Q3 stood at EUR 21.5 (18.7) million. Order backlog totaled
EUR 2.6 (0.0) million. 

Network Services - January to September

Net sales grew by 9.9% amounting to EUR 68.2 (62.0) million. Operating profit
fell over the comparative period standing at EUR 0.1 (0.5) million, which is
0.1% (0.8%) of the net sales. In H1 of the period under review, this decline in
operating profit involved Germany, and was due to increased costs related to
both construction work mainly carried out by means of subcontracting and those
involving added resources in fiber-optic projects. Over the comparative period,
clearly more working capital was committed to accounts receivable due to a
change of a payment term in late 2010 by the German main client. Orders
received improved by 23.0% standing at EUR 70.0 (56.9) million. 

Investment and Financing - January to September

Investments by the Group for the period under review totaled EUR 5.2 (9.2)
million accounting for 4.0% (7.6%) of the net sales. Investments made in the
comparative period include two acquisitions. Out of these investments EUR 1.1
(0.4) million involved the extension of premises in Finland. Product
development investments totaled EUR 2.1 (1.2) million. As to other investments,
EUR 1.1 million was allocated in tools and equipment for Network Services, 0.4
million in machinery and equipment for Video and Broadband Solutions.
Investments made in corporate reporting and computing totaled EUR 0.5 million.
As to investments for the period, EUR 0.4 (0.1) million was carried out by
means of financial leasing. 

Operating cash flow stood at EUR -2.4 (4.5) million. In the review period,
working capital was committed, in particular, to the accounts receivable and
inventories. At the end of the period under review, the amount of unused
binding stand-by credits amounted to EUR 7.5 (18.5) million. The current
binding stand-by credits of EUR 40.0 million run till November 2013. The
Group's equity ratio equaled 41.4% (41.5%) and net gearing 44.1% (26.7%).
Interest bearing debt on 30 September 2011 stood at EUR 33.4 (22.9) million. 

Personnel and Organization - January to September

In January to September 2011, the Group employed an average of 1,290 people
(1,221/2010, 1,090/2009). At the end of the review period, the number of
Group's employees was 1,311 (1,231/2010, 1,230/2009), of whom 755 (664) worked
for Network Services and 556 (567) for Video and Broadband Solutions. Employees
stationed outside Europe accounted for less than 5% of the Group's personnel.
At the end of the review period, the number of rented personnel involved in
production in Finland was 24. Expenditure on employee benefits amounted to EUR
39.1 (36.7/January-September/2010, EUR 31.2/January-September/2009) million. 

Essential Operational Risks of the Business Areas

Founded in 1954, Teleste is a technology and service provider consisting of two
business areas: Video and Broadband Solutions and Network Services. With Europe
as the main market area, our most significant clients include European cable
operators and specified organizations in the public sector. 

Concerning Video and Broadband Solutions, integrated deliveries of solutions
create favorable conditions for growth, even if the involved resource
allocation and technical implementation pose a challenge involving, therefore,
also reasonable risks. The still ongoing difficult market situation may delay
the implementation of investment plans among the clientele. Network investments
carried out by the clients vary based on their need for upgrading and their
capital structure. Much of Teleste's competition comes from the USA so the
exchange rate of euro up against the US dollar affects our competitiveness.
Teleste hedges against short-term currency exposure by means of forward
contracts. Correct technological choices and their timing are vital for our
success. 

Net sales for Network Services comes, for the most part, from a small number of
large European customers, so a change in the demand for services by any one of
them is reflected in the actual deliveries. The services provided by this
business area include planning, new construction and maintenance of cable and
fiber networks. Implementation and scope of the relevant services vary by
client ranging from stand-alone applications to integrated turnkey deliveries.
Most deliveries are based on frame agreements. The services also include
Teleste's own product solutions. Our know-how in services covers all the
sectors related to the cable and fiber-optic network technology from
installation and maintenance of headends to upgrading of house networks.
Services will also be implemented through a network of subcontracting, so the
sufficiency of our subcontractor network capacity may limit our ability to
deliver. To ensure quality of services and cost-efficiency, along with an
efficient service process management, customer satisfaction requires innovative
solutions in terms of processes, products and logistics. As far as technical
management of the networks and functional product solutions are concerned,
ensuring smooth operation of the operators' networks requires constant focus on
the development of qualifications of Teleste's own and its suppliers'
personnel. 

It is equally important for our business areas to take into account any market
developments such as consolidations taking place among the clientele and
competition. Also the European financial market instability including the
difficult economic situation of the public sector affects the demand for our
products and services, either directly or indirectly. Weather conditions in our
target markets affect the delivery conditions of products and services of our
business areas. 

The Board of Directors annually reviews any essential risks related to the
company operation and the management thereof. Risk management constitutes an
integral part of the strategic and operative practices of our business areas.
Risks and their probability are reported to the Board by regular monthly
reports. 

The company has covered risks involving damage to operative functions of the
business areas mainly through insurance policies. These insurances do not
include credit loss risks. In the period under review, no such risks
materialized, and no legal proceedings or judicial procedures were pending that
would have had any essential significance for the Group operation. 

Group Structure

Parent company Teleste has branch offices in Australia, the Netherlands, China
and Denmark with subsidiaries in 12 countries outside Finland. Teleste
Management Oy, founded in March 2010, has been consolidated in the Teleste
Group figures on account of financial arrangements. 

Decisions by the Annual General Meeting

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Teleste Corporation on 08.04.11 confirmed
the financial statements for 2010 and discharged the Board of Directors and the
CEO from liability for the financial period. The AGM confirmed the dividend of
EUR 0.12 per share proposed by the Board. The dividend was paid out on 20 April
2011. 

The AGM elected Marjo Miettinen, Pertti Ervi, Tero Laaksonen, Pertti
Raatikainen, Kai Telanne and Petteri Walldén members of the Board. Marjo
Miettinen was elected Chair of the Board in the organizational meeting held
immediately after the AGM. 

Authorized Public Accountants KPMG Oy Ab continue as the auditor until the next
AGM. Accountant authorized by the Central Chamber of Commerce of Finland Esa
Kailiala was chosen auditor-in-charge. 

The AGM authorized the Board to acquire the maximum of 1,400,000 of the
company's own shares and to convey the maximum of 1,779,985 company's own
shares. The AGM also authorized the company Board to issue 5,000,000 new
shares. Pursuant to the special rights provided by the company, the maximum
number of significant shares is 2,500,000; these special rights are included in
the authorization to issue 5,000,000 new shares. 

Shares and Changes in Share Capital

On 30 September 2011, EM Group Oy was the largest single shareholder with a
holding of 21.55%. 

In the period under review, the lowest company share price was EUR 2.61 (3.63)
and the highest was EUR 4.82 (5.33). Closing price on 30 September 2011 stood
at EUR 2.71 (4.91). According to Euroclear Finland Ltd the number of
shareholders at the end of the period under review was 5,090 (5,306). Foreign
ownership accounted for 8.0% (8.5%). From 1 January to 30 September 2011,
trading with Teleste share at NASDAQ OMX Helsinki amounted to EUR 4.8 (11.6)
million. In the period under review, 1.2 (2.6) million Teleste shares were
traded on the stock exchange. 

At the end of September 2011, the number of own shares in the Group possession
stood at 760,985 (760,985) out of which parent company Teleste Corporation had
none (0) while other Group or controlled companies had 760,985 shares,
respectively. At the end of the period, the Group's holding of the total amount
of shares amounted to 4.18% (4.18%). 

On 30 September 2011, the registered share capital of Teleste stood at EUR
6,966,932.80 divided in 18,186,590 shares. 

Outlook

In 2011, deliveries of equipment and solutions by Video and Broadband Solutions
to its customer base of operators in our target markets will, in our
estimation, at least achieve the level of 2010. European telecom operators have
launched their investments into the TV distribution infrastructure, and we
believe that our video headend and optical network products will be competitive
in this new emerging market. Due to postponements in a number of medium-sized
projects Teleste's deliveries related to security and traffic control will
remain at the level of the comparative period. 

On the annual basis, demand by our current clientele for the services provided
by Network Services will remain relatively active. We expect that in Germany,
the main market, profitability for the current year will improve from the 2010
level with the increase in net sales and the gradual introduction of the
streamlining measures. 

We keep the outlook for 2011 unchanged. We estimate net sales to increase
slightly and the operating profit to improve somewhat over the 2010 level.
