President & CEO Arto Metsänen:
Owing to global economic uncertainty, market conditions remained challenging.
Despite the difficult operating environment, Glaston managed to maintain its
market position. 

Glaston's second quarter was unsatisfactory. Economic uncertainty was reflected
in business activity. Customers' caution was evident in delayed
decision-making, with transactions being shifted to the latter part of the
year, and in the postponement of orders already agreed. In larger investments,
customers also had difficulties in financing the investments. In the second
quarter, net sales totlled EUR 33.7 million and in January-June net sales were
EUR 69.2 million. Our operating result excluding non-recurring items was a loss
of EUR 2.4 million for the first six months of the year. 

Despite the weak start to the year, we continue to believe that we will achieve
our net sales and operating profit targets for the full year, due to our order
book, competitive product range and cost-efficient operations. 

Glaston's outlook for 2012 unchanged
Glaston expects that 2012 net sales will be at least at the 2011 level and that
the operating result excluding non-recurring items will be positive. 

 Markets
In the second quarter of 2012 Glaston's market slowed. In Asia, market growth
continued to level off. The EMEA market remained challenging due to the euro
area's economic difficulties and the unstable political situation in the Middle
East. No major changes occurred in the South American market. In North America,
the glass processing machine market showed slight signs of recovery. 

Machines
In the second quarter of 2012, the development of Machines segment's market in
Asia continued to level off. The cautiously positive development of the North
American market continued in the second quarter. The EMEA market was relatively
stable, but the uncertain economic outlook in Europe led to the postponement of
purchasing decisions. No major changes occurred in the South American market. 

In the second quarter of the year, the first sales of the Glaston RC200™
machine were made to the USA and Mexico, and the first Glaston CHF2000™ machine
was sold to the USA. This continuously operating flat tempering machine has
been designed particularly to meet the needs of solar energy and appliance
industries. The launch of the new XtraEdge™ double edging machine continued in
the second quarter of the year on a positive note. Significant sales were made
in the Middle East, Italy and the UK. The new Hiyon™ edging machine was also
launched at the Glass South America Fair in May, and the machine was well
received by customers. After the fair, a number of sales were concluded in
South America. 

In January-June, the Machines segment's net sales totalled EUR 43.6 (47.6)
million. The operating result excluding non-recurring items was a loss of EUR
2.6 (1.7 loss) million. 

Services
In the second quarter, machine modernisation services developed positively in
the EMEA area, particularly in Russia and Turkey. In Central Europe, demand was
centred especially on machine relocation services. In North America, customers
were interested in upgrades that increased capacity and machine performance. In
Asia, a new furnace chamber refurbishment package was well received .In South
America, demand was focused on machine control system upgrades. 

In the second quarter of the year, the revamped Glaston Care service agreement
family, which contains four levels, was launched onto the market. The product
family now covers the maintenance needs of glass processors of all sizes. The
CareEasy™ contract is an easy way to begin regular and systematic maintenance.
The Glaston Care™ level is a comprehensive, preventative maintenance programme.
The CarePlus™ maintenance contract includes, in addition to the latter,
extensive process consultation. The CareWarranty5™ servicecontract is a
five-year warranty for new tempering machines. 

The published products also include the machine relocation service
GlastonMove™. Glaston is the only machine supplier to offer a complete turnkey
relocation service package, which covers documentation, start-up and training.
Customers can also select only parts of the service package. 

The Services segment's January-June net sales totalled EUR 15.5 (16.9) million
and the operating result excluding non-recurring items was EUR 2.7 (3.8)
million. 

Software Solutions
In the second quarter of 2012, the Software Solutions segment's market was
challenging. Economic uncertainty in Europe extended customers' investment
decision-making times and led to the postponement of orders. Price competition
also intensified. 

Cost-efficiency, energy saving and carbon footprint reduction are increasingly
influencing customers' investment decisions. In the review period, demand was
directed at technical software systems, production planning systems and
optimizers. Sales of maintenance contracts again developed in line with
expectations during the second quarter. The Glass South America Fair, which was
held in Sao Paolo, Brazil in May, showed that there are significant growth
opportunities for the segment's products in the South American market. 

In the second quarter, a significant project for an integrated production
planning system was  agreed with the German company Glas Blessing. After a
rigorous evaluation process, the customer opted for A+W Business and A+W
Production solutions. A number of small and profitable service projects were
also implemented in the review period. Consulting organization utilisation
remained high during the second quarter. 

An extensive operational development programme being implemented in the segment
advanced during the second quarter to the implementation stage, and had a
positive impact, particularly on the sales organisation and product
development. The strong investment in developing new products, such as software
tools and software architecture, continued. 

The Software Solutions segment's January-June net sales totalled EUR 10.7
(12.2) million. The operating result excluding non-recurring items was EUR 1.1
(1.3) million. 

Orders received
Glaston's orders received during the first six months of the year totalled EUR
66.0 (75.5) million. Of orders received, the Machines segment accounted for
60%, the Software Solutions segment 15% and the Services segment 25%. 

Orders received during the second quarter of the year totalled EUR 33.2 (36.7)
million. 

Order book
Glaston's order book on 30 June 2012 stood at EUR 35.7 (38.7) million. Of the
order book, the Machines segment accounted for EUR 30.8 million, the Services
segment EUR 3.3 million and the Software Solutions segment EUR 1.6 million.

company held 788,582 of the company's own shares (treasury shares),
corresponding to 0.75% of the total number of issued and registered shares and
votes. The counter book value of treasury shares is EUR 94,819. 

Every share that the company does not hold itself entitles its owner to one
vote at the Annual General Meeting. The share has no nominal value. The counter
book value of each registered share is EUR 0.12. 

During the first six months of the year, a total of around 11.1 million of the
company's shares were traded, i.e. around 10.6% of the total number of shares.
The lowest price paid for a share was EUR 0.24 and the highest price EUR
0.74.The volume-weighted average price of shares traded during January-June was

shares excluded, was EUR 28.3 (106.9) million. The equity per share
attributable to owners of the parent was EUR 0.42 (0.55). 

The 2011 Annual General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide on
a share issue, including the right to issue new shares and/or convey treasury
shares. The share issue authorisation covers a maximum of 20,000,000 shares and
is valid until the end of the 2013 Annual General Meeting. The authorisation
includes the right to decide on a share issue without payment. The Board of
Directors also has the right to issue and/or convey shares in derogation of the
pre-emptive subscription right of shareholders. At the end of the review
period, the Board of Directors still had in respect of this authorisation the
authority to issue 16,907,499 shares. The Board of Directors has no other
authorisations. 

Uncertainties and risks in the near future
Glaston's uncertainties and risks in the near future are to a large extent
linked to the development of the world economy. In addition, political
instability, particularly in the Middle East, will affect the development of
the EMEA area. Slower economic growth may continue to result in the
postponement of orders and changes in machine delivery schedules. Customers'
difficulties relating to finance arrangements may restrict customers'
investment opportunities. These might be reflected in the development of the
latter part of the year. 

The underlying nature of the sector is expected to remain unchanged, so
development in the coming years is expected to be positive. If the recovery of
the sector is delayed or slows, this will have a negative effect on Glaston's
result. The shift of the geographical focus of business activity to areas of
higher economic growth will, however, dampen the financial impact of a possibly
slower recovery in Western Europe and North America, despite a levelling off of
the Asian and South American markets. 

Due to market uncertainty, it is possible that Glaston's recoverable amounts
will 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 equity. 

Outlook
Glaston's markets will remain challenging in the latter part of 2012.Growth in
the Asian market has clearly levelled off in the early part of the year and we
expect this trend to continue in the latter part of the year. In the South
American market, we expect cautiously positive development. The North American
market continues to show signs of recovery, and we believe this positive trend
will continue. In the EMEA area, the market will continue to be challenging. 

The cornerstones of Glaston's operations remain the architectural glass segment
and the solar energy market. The architectural glass segment creates the
foundation for the company's future growth. In the longer term, prospects for
the solar energy segment are good.The automotive industry also offers good
growth opportunities. 

The prevailing uncertainty in the operating environment combined with
customers' investment caution will result in more intense competition. Despite
the difficult operating conditions, we believe that the positive development in
the Services and Software Solutions segments will continue during the latter
part of the year. We will continue to invest heavily in these areas. In the
Machines segment, market uncertainty will be reflected most strongly in larger
machine orders. Due to our existing order book and to sales transferred from
the early part of the year, we continue to believe that we will achieve our
target for the full year. It is typical for the sector that deliveries are
weighted towards the final quarter of the year. 

Glaston expects that 2012 net sales will be at least at the 2011 level and that
the operating result excluding non-recurring items will be positive.

Derivative instruments are used only for hedging purposes. Nominalvalues 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.
