FINANCIAL ENVIRONMENT                                                           

The net sales of the period under review (1 Jan. to 30 June 2009) were negative,
as the net investment income was EUR 3.5 million negative. The loss arose when  
Amanda sold investment commitments worth EUR 20 million and realised the LPE    
investment. The private equity portfolio gave a profit of EUR 0.4 million during
the period under review. The net sales from the management and consultation of  
private equity investments totalled EUR 2.2 million during the period. The      
assets under management were at the same level as at the end of 2008,           
approximately EUR 2 500 million.                                                

Due to the challenging market situation, the exits in Amanda´s investment       
portfolio consisting of 28 private equity funds came to an almost total         
standstill. The valuation of Amanda's private equity fund portfolio also        
decreased during the period under review. We estimate that the exit market will 
remain challenging in the near future due to the present market situation.      


Financial development in the first half of 2009                                 

From 1 Jan. to 30 June 2009, the consolidated net sales totalled EUR -1.4       
million (EUR 4.6 million from 1 Jan. to 30 June 2008). Fees from the management 
and consultation of private equity funds accounted for EUR 2.2 million (EUR 2.1 
million). The net investment income totalled EUR -3.5 million (EUR 2.5 million),
including a loss of EUR 2.8 million from the realisation of the Amanda LPE Fund,
with an impact on the company result, and a loss of EUR 1.2 million from the    
sale of investment commitments worth EUR 20 million. The result for the period  
was EUR -2.4 million (EUR -1.0 million).                                        

The Group's expenses and depreciation totalled EUR 1.8 million (EUR 6.4         
million). Personnel expenses amounted to EUR 0.7 million (EUR 0.9 million) and  
depreciation was EUR 0.3 million (EUR 0.3 million). Other operating expenses    
totalled EUR 0.7 million (EUR 5.2 million). The other operating expenses of the 
comparison period included expenses of EUR 4.2 million resulting from the       
settlement between Amanda and Interglobia's bankrupt's estate and Interavanti   
Oyj.                                                                            


Financial development in the second quarter of 2009                             

From 1 April to 30 June 2009, the consolidated net sales totalled EUR -0.1      
million (EUR 2.3 million from 1 April to 30 June 2008). Fees from the management
and consultation of private equity funds accounted for EUR 1.1 million (EUR 1.1 
million). The net investment income totalled EUR -1.2 million (EUR 1.2 million),
including a loss of EUR 1.2 million from the sale of investment commitments with
an impact on the company result. The result for the second quarter was EUR -0.7 
million (EUR -2.1 million).                                                     

The Group's expenses and depreciation totalled EUR 0.9 million (EUR 5.2

depreciation was EUR 0.2 million (EUR 0.2 million). Other operating expenses    
totalled EUR 0.4 million (EUR 4.6 million).                                     


BALANCE SHEET 
The consolidated balance sheet total was EUR 40.7 million (EUR                  
54.1 million) and shareholders' equity EUR 37.2 million (EUR 47.1 million). EUR 
2.5 million (EUR 3.5 million) of the short-term debt was interest-bearing, and

MANAGEMENT AND CONSULTATION OF PRIVATE EQUITY INVESTMENTS                       

The management and consultation of private equity investments generated EUR 1.1 
million of net sales during the period under review, which corresponds to       
expectations.                                                                   

The Financial Supervision Authority granted Amanda Capital Plc's fully owned    
subsidiary Amanda Advisors Ltd the licence to act as investment firm during the 
period under review.                                                            

At the end of the period under review, the assets under Amanda's management     
totalled EUR 2.5 billion (original investment commitments). EUR 112.9 million of
the assets under management were Amanda's own investment commitments, EUR 441.7 
million assets in the private equity funds of funds managed by Amanda, and EUR  
2.0 billion was covered by consultation. With these assets, investments have    
been made in more than 100 private equity funds in Europe, the USA, Asia and    
Russia.                                                                         


INVESTMENT OPERATIONS                                                           

In the second quarter of 2009, Amanda Capital Plc did not make any new          
investments in private equity funds. Investments made in private equity funds   
are not evenly divided between the different quarters of the year. During the   
period under review, Amanda sold an investment commitment of EUR 15 million in  
the Amanda IV West private equity fund and an investment commitment of EUR 5    
million in the MB Equity Fund IV to Finnish institutional investors. By selling 
these investment commitments Amanda cut down future capital calls by altogether 
EUR 18.4 million.                                                               

Amanda has investments in 23 private equity funds and five private equity funds 
of funds under the company's own management. Amanda's degree of investment (book
value of private equity investments per equity) was 73.0% (79.4%). Amanda's     
over-commitment degree was 166.9% (179.9%). During the period under review, the 
private equity funds called in capital in the amount of approximately EUR 1.5   
million and returned approximately EUR 1.1 million to the company as capital    
returns and EUR 0.4 million as distribution of profits. In addition, a loss of  
EUR 1.2 million was recorded in the income statement, as Amanda sold investment 
commitments worth EUR 20 million.                                               

Information on Amanda's current private equity fund investments can be found on 
the company website at www.amandacapital.fi.                                    


NEW INVESTMENTS MADE BY THE PRIVATE EQUITY FUNDS                                

During the period under review, the private equity funds in Amanda's investment 
portfolio concentrated on the management of the existing investment objects, and
the target funds made no new investments. After the period under review, the    
Gresham IV private equity fund bought five of Formation Group Plc's nine        
business areas thereby establishing a company called James Grant Group Limited. 
The company operates in the UK and is a leading provider of management and      
professional services to companies in the sports, music and entertainment       
sector.                                                                         


COMPANIES DIVESTED BY THE PRIVATE EQUITY FUNDS

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY                                                            

During the period under review, the Trade Register gave Amanda the permission to
cut down the share premium reserve according to the company balance sheet of 31 
December 2007 by EUR 18 926 777.92 and the legal reserve according to the       
company balance sheet of 31 December 2007 by EUR 10 687 579.69. These amounts   
were transferred to the reserve for invested unrestricted equity.               

OPTIONS PROGRAMME                                                               

Based on an authorisation by the Annual General Meeting held on 30 March 2009,  
the Board of Directors decided to issue a maximum of 2 000 000 option rights to 
key employees of the Amanda Capital Plc Group, selected by the Board. The       
company has a weighty financial reason for issuing option rights, as the option 
rights are intended to be part of the incentive and commitment scheme for the   
key personnel.                                                                  

The option rights entitle their holders to subscribe for a maximum total of     
2 000 000 new shares in the company.                                            


PERSONNEL                                                                       

At the end of the period under review, the Group had 16 employees (14           
employees). The salaries and wages paid to the personnel totalled EUR 0.7       
million (EUR 0.9 million) during the period.                                    ESSENTIAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES ASSOCIATED WITH THE OPERATIONS                

The risks associated with Amanda Group's business mainly consist of             
investment-related risks, i.e. the market risk, foreign exchange risk and       
liquidity risk. Risks are managed comprehensively through an investment process 
and investment strategy confirmed by Amanda Capital Plc's Board of Directors.   

The investment objects are selected through an investment process, in which the 
Investment Committee screens potential investment objects that are subjected to 
a Due Diligence review. At the Due Diligence stage, the fund's return history,  
personnel, documentation and other factors essentially related to the           
administration and development of the fund are examined. The final investment   
proposals are submitted to Amanda Capital Plc's Board of Directors for          
assessment and decision-making.                                                 

Liquidity risk                                                                  

The Group's liquidity is monitored continuously, and good liquidity is          
maintained by only investing the surplus liquidity in objects with a low risk,  
which can be turned into cash rapidly and at a clear market price. The          
availability and flexibility of financing has been arranged with limit promise. 

The exits of private equity funds from their target companies have a major      
impact on liquidity. The international credit crisis has had a strong impact on 
the private equity business. As a result of the credit crisis, the liquidity,   
pricing and terms of the loan market have become tighter. The financial market  
has become more cautious as a whole, and it can be expected that exits from     
target companies and the return of capital to investors will slow down in the   
short term. On the other hand, the management of private equity investments is  
characterised by long-term management agreements that produce a stable cash flow
and improve the predictability of the company's liquidity.                      


PRINCIPLES FOR DRAWING UP THE REPORT                                            

From 1 January 2009, the Group has applied the following amended standard: IAS 1
Presentation of Financial Statements. The amended standard has an impact on the 
manner of presenting the Income Statement. From 1 January 2009, the Group has   
applied the new IFRS 8 standard, Operating Segments, but it has not had any     
impact on the interim report, as Amanda still has only one operating segment.   

The interim report has been prepared in accordance with International Financial 
Reporting Standards, IFRS, and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, approved by  
the EU. In the preparation of the interim report, Amanda has applied the same   
principles as in the financial statements for the year 2008. The calculation of 
the key ratios is presented in the financial statements. As for the net         
investment income, Amanda Capital's net sales are recognised in Amanda's income 
statement in different quarters due to factors independent of the company.      

The information in the interim report has not been audited.                     


EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD                                               

There were no essential events for the company after the period under review.   


OUTLOOK OF THE PRIVATE EQUITY MARKET                                            

The private equity business went through a period of strong growth, both in     
Europe and globally, up to the end of 2007. Due to the turn in the economic     
situation in 2008, the private equity industry was also faced with a more       
challenging environment. The international credit crisis has had a strong impact
on the private equity business. The credits granted by banks for above all large
buyout deals have been reduced, and it has also become more difficult to get    
loan financing for small and medium-sized buyout investments.                   

As a result of the credit crisis, the liquidity, pricing and terms of the loan  
market have become tighter. The prices of business acquisitions are expected to 
normalise at a lower level than in the past years. The financial market has     
become more cautious as a whole, and it can be expected that exits from target  
companies and the return of capital to investors will slow down in the short    
term. The most part of the private equity market has used debt financing        
moderately and made appropriately priced investments that are expected to       
continue to yield a return that is typical of the private equity industry in the
long term. The establishment of new private equity funds is expected to slow    
down until the risks of the international financial market can be identified and
the trust between the market parties can be re-established.                     

At the moment, private equity funds have at their disposal a large amount of    
capital for new investments during the following 3 to 4 years. Private equity   
investments have proven to be a competitive way of owning and managing          
companies. The private equity business is expected to continue to grow globally 
owing to the good returns.                                                      


COMPANY OUTLOOK                                                                 

The expansion of Amanda's business from investment operations to the management 
and consultation of private equity investments has proven to be a good strategy.
The management of private equity investments is characterised by long-term      
management agreements that produce a stable cash flow and improve the           
predictability of the company's net sales and result. The expansion of business 
operations has reduced the sensitivity of Amanda's result to fluctuations in    
investment income. The company aims at increasing its management operations in  
future, too, both organically by establishing new funds and through possible    
business acquisitions. Based on the effective agreements, the net sales of this 
business area will exceed EUR 4.0 million in 2009.                              

Amanda has continued with its selective investment operations and mainly        
concentrated its investments in private equity funds targeting later stage      
companies. This strategy has resulted in excellent returns, and the long-term   
returns on investments are expected to remain good for the foreseeable future. A
quarter is, however, too short a period for measuring the success of investment 
operations in the private equity business, where the investment horizon is      
several years.
