Mikko Jaskari, acting President and CEO of Honkarakenne Oyj, in connection with
the financial statement release: 

Honkarakenne's net result before taxes for the entire year was satisfactory,

considering the circumstances. Despite difficult market situation the result
before taxes improved compared to the previous year and especially the
financial position of the group was in the targeted level in the end of the
year. The Group's equity ratio was 53% (42%) and net gearing was 35 % (73%). 

The economic recession affected the sales in the end of the year. The
development of sales was not satisfactory in the third and in the fourth
quarter. The sales in market areas Far East, East and Other Markets were higher
than in the previous year. In Finland and West the sales were lower in the
previous year. Especially sales in the West were lower than targeted. 

The main focus in 2012 will be on expediting sales. Honkarakenne will continue
focusing on its premium and luxury strategy. This will be shown especially in
design during 2012. In Finland growth will be sought in the residential house
business and from urban construction projects based on wood. In exports,
premium products, such as Honka Fusion™, will be developed further. 

In the end of 2011 we started sales excellence training in Finland. The first
results have been very promising and the training program will be rolled out to
the whole international sales channel during 2012. The importance of personal
sales skills is crucial in the difficult market situation. 



NET SALES

Honkarakenne Group's net sales for the year 2011 decreased by 5 per cent to EUR
55.0 million (EUR 58.1 million), the net sales in Finland reduced by 11 per
cent to EUR 22.9 million (EUR 25.7 million), and export net sales reduced by 1
per cent to EUR 30.6 million (EUR 30.8 million). 

The Group's last-quarter net sales in 2011 decreased by 9 per cent to EUR 13.6
million (EUR 15.0 million). The net sales in Finland reduced by 7 per cent to
one million EUR (EUR 5.7 million), and export net sales reduced by 10 per cent
to EUR 8.6 million (EUR 9.5 million).

DEVELOPMENT OF PROFIT AND PROFITABILITY

Operating profit in 2011 was MEUR 1.9 (MEUR 1.3), and profit before taxes was
MEUR 1.1 (MEUR 0.4). 

The calculations below present the change in operating profit from 2010 to 2011.



Operating profit 2010 without non-recurring items   2.5
Improvement programme and increase in sales        -1.0
Other items                                        +0.1
Operating profit 2010 without non-recurring items   1.6
Non-recurring items                                +0.3
Operating profit 2011                               1.9



Non-recurring items 2011 includes a positive item generated by the sale of the
shareholding in Karjalan Lisenssisaha Invest Oy of MEUR 0.34 and non-recurring
implementation expenditure for the improvement programme amounting to MEUR
0.06. 

The goal of the improvement programme initiated by the Group at the beginning
of 2010 is to increase the result by MEUR 8 within two years. Of this, MEUR 5.1
was achieved in 2010, and for 2011 the targeted improvement was MEUR 2.9. The
targeted improvement was not achieved and operating profit without
non-recurring items decreased from previous year. The negative result of the
improvement programme is a result of the fact that the development of sales was
not satisfactory, which is why the required volumes have not been secured for
the improvement programme. 



FINANCING AND INVESTMENTS

In the course of the period under review, the financial position of the Group
strengthened. The equity ratio stood at 53% (42%) and interest-bearing net
liabilities at MEUR 6.1 (MEUR 12.8). MEUR 0.8 (3.2) of the interest-bearing net
liabilities carries a 30% equity ratio covenant term. Group liquid assets
totalled MEUR 2.6 (MEUR 1.9). The Group also has a MEUR 10.0 bank overdraft
facility, MEUR 9.2 (MEUR 6.8) of which had not been drawn on at the end of the
report period. Gearing stood at 35% (73%). The Group's capital expenditure
totalled MEUR 1.0 (MEUR 0.6), at the same period depreciations were 3.3 MEUR
(MEUR 3.7). 

The Group arranged its financial position in December 2011. A new loan
agreement was made in December and the loan arrangements were put in place
after the review period in January 2012. After the arrangement in January the
short term loans decreased by 2.8 million euro and long term loans increased by
2.8 million euro. Additionally the bank overdraft facility was decreased by 2
million euro to 8 million euro. 



MARKET DEVELOPMENT

Based on a report commissioned by RTS Oy, Finnish log house production value is
estimated to have grown by 1% in 2011. The figure includes production for
Finland and for overseas export. 

For year 2012 the RTS Oy's report forecasts 6 % decrease in the market.



PRODUCTS AND MARKETING

In Finland main emphasis in 2011 was on energy efficient solutions, development
of vacation home models and development of urban consruction projects. In the
beginning of the year Honkarakenne brought Honka Säästö energy saving concept
to the market. This is a unique structural solution that allows holiday houses
with modern comforts to remain completely cold during the Winter Honka Säästö™
introduces significant reductions to the energy costs of vacation houses and
provides safety for example electricity black outs during Winter. 

In 2011 Honkarakenne launched new vacation house models such as the Saariston
Tähti range, which is particularly directed at meeting the needs of vacation
homes in the archipelago areas. 

Honkarakenne's Lokki -model, launched at the Holiday Housing Fair in
Mäntyharju, was elected the Log House of the Year by a jury summoned by
Hirsitaloteollisuus. The jury consisted of designer Ristomatti Ratia and
professor Jouni Koiso-Kanttila. 

In August, Honkarakenne presented the regional development venture to be
implemented in Suurpelto in Espoo. Urban homes that will be of high quality and
ecologically sustainable will be built in Suurpelto using the collaborative
construction method. 

In market area Westthe sales of Honka Fusion was especially promoted. In order
to boost sales, sales training was organised for all importers in the West
market area. 

Single-family house models based on the Honka Fusion™ concept were launched in
Germany and the UK in the second quarter. Efforts were also be made especially
in Germany to recruit additional importers . 

In the East, the new Jewels™ range of models in the premium segment was
launched in the second quarter. All houses in the Jewels™ range are large
single-family houses. The Jewels™ range has taken into account the typical
needs of customers in the premium segment of the East market area. The range
was well received in the market and the first deals were made immediately after
the launch. In the fourth quarter the sales promotion was mainly made through
fairs and new representatives were sought from the neighboring countries for
Russia. 

In Far East, the first quarter was overshadowed by Japan's natural disaster in
March. In the second quarter the existing product ranges were renewed in
response to the development of customer needs. In order to support sales, a
concept handbook was prepared specifically for importers, which will facilitate
discussion between the seller and the customer when purchasing decisions are
being made. The natural disaster has increased the energy consciousness in
Japan. As a response Honkarakenne took the triple glass windows which are well
known in Nordic countries as a default in all house shipments to Japan. 

In the Other Markets group sales was pursued from individual large projects
during the year. The sales network development was made mainly in North
American market where the sales network structure was changed during the second
and third quarter. 

In the fourth quarter Honkarakenne streamlined its log range in all market
areas to fit better the customer demand and coming energy restrictions. This
renewal should give better customer satisfaction and cost efficiency in
planning new houses. 



RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

In January-December, the Group's R&D expenditures were EUR 0.5 million (EUR
0.6 million), 1.0% of net sales (1.1%). The Group has not activated development
costs during the financial year. 



STAFF

During the year the Group employed 265 people (291) on average. This is 26 less
than at the same time in the previous year. 

The Group employed 261 (266) people at the end of year.

At the end of the second quarter, Honkarakenne concluded co-operation
negotiations and as a result of these negotiations, it was agreed that
Honkarakenne may lay off its staff for a fixed period not exceeding 90 days up
by the end of March 2012. In the autumn market situation decreased and new
co-operation negotiations were initiated for both indefinite lay-offs and
temporary lay-offs during the last quarter of the year. Co-operation
negotiations were concluded on January 2012. As a result of negotiations 49
persons were laid off for an indefinite period and other personnel in Finland
can be laid off for maximum 90 days by the end of September 2012.

system, with Honkarakenne's new management team member, Sanna Wester, joining
it. 

In the directed issue, Honkarakenne relinquished to Honka Management Oy a total
of 17,250 of its own shares (HONBS) as part of the share ownership system for
Honkarakenne management. The purchase price of the shares was EUR 5.26 each,

purchase cost of the shares has been entered in the Group accounts to reduce
shareholders' equity. Honkarakenne Oyj's share capital comprises a total of
5,168,968 shares, of which 

300,096 are A shares and 4,868,872 are B shares. Each B share yields one (1)

to EUR 9,897,936.00. 



OWNERSHIP CHANGES IN ASSOCIATED COMPANIES 
On 17 February 2011, Honkarakenne Oyj signed an agreement to sell its 37.5%
sharehold in Karjalan Lisenssisaha Invest Oy to FM Timber Team Oy. Karjalan

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Honkarakenne Oyj follows the Limited Liability Companies Act and the Finnish
Corporate Governance Code, 1 October 2010, for listed companies issued by the
Finnish Securities Market Association. The company's website,
www.honka.com/investors, provides more information on the corporate governance
systems. 



FORTHCOMING RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

During the last two quarters the amount of signed deals has decreased
significantly. This causes a risk in achieving the estimated revenue and profit
forecasts, if the decreasing trend cannot be turned. 

The market situation in all Honkarakenne markets is uncertain. Market situation
may lead to overall decrease of demand which is a risk for achieving the
forecasted result level. 

The consolidated financial statements include EUR 2.0 million (EUR 3.7 million)
of long-term receivables which are more than 180 days overdue, with no credit
loss provision. The Group has one significant concentration of credit risks in
sales receivables, concerning the open sales receivables of one importer. No
provision for doubtful debt has been made for this. The new sales made with
this importer have been paid according to the agreed terms. Deliveries to the
importer have continued, and the risks with the open sales receivables have not
increased. A payment plan agreement related to the matter was updated during
the second quarter of the year. These sales receivables have diminished during
2011. 

The assessment of amounts in the balance sheet is based on current assessment
by the management. If these assessments are changed, this may result in changes
to the Group's result. 



REPORTING

This report contains statements that relate to the future, and these statements
are based on hypotheses that the company's management hold currently as well as
on the decisions and plans that are currently in place. Although the management
believes that the hypotheses relating to the future are well-founded, there is
no guarantee that the said hypotheses will prove to be correct. 

This financial statements bulletin has been prepared in line with standard IAS
34, Interim Financial Reporting. The new revised standards or interpretations
effective as of 1 January 2010 have no bearing on the figures presented for the
report period. The figures have not been examined by the auditor.

27.1.2012. The Board of Directors has appointed Mikko Jaskari as acting
President and CEO of Honkarakenne as of February 2 2012. Search for a new CEO
is ongoing. 



THE OUTLOOK FOR 2012

Net sales and result before taxes for 2012 are forecasted to remain at the
previous year's level.The first quarter of the year will be financially
negative due to seasonal variation. The risk relating to the profit forecast is
that the company's orderbook at year-end is 25% below the previous year's
level. 

At the end of December, the Group's order book stood at MEUR 13.6, which was
MEUR 17.3 at the same period the previous year. The order book refers to orders
whose delivery date falls within the next 24 months. Some orders may include a
financing or building permit condition. 



PROPOSAL OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ON THE USE OF PROFIT FUNDS

The free capital of the parent company as of December 31 2011 was MEUR 3.6 of
which distributable assets were MEUR 0.7. The profit of the annual period in
the parent company was MEUR 0.3. 

The Board shall propose at the Annual General Meeting that no dividend should
be distributed for the financial year ending on 31 December 2011 and that the
remaining available funds remain in the unrestricted shareholders' equity. The

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT RELEASE

Calculation methods

This financial statements release has been prepared in line with standard IAS
34, Interim Financial Reporting. In preparing this financial statement release,
Honkarakenne has observed the same preparation principles as in its annual
financial statements of 2010, yet so that Honkarakenne has applied the new and
changed standards and interpretations introduced in 2011. The new revised
standards or interpretations effective as of 1 January 2011 have no bearing on
the figures presented for the report period. The figures have not been examined
by the auditor. 

According to the management's view, the implementation of the above-mentioned
standards and interpretations has not had an impact on the figures presented
concerning the report period. 

Honka Management Oy, established previous year and owned by the top management
of the company, has been included in the consolidated financial statements due
to the terms and conditions of the shareholder agreement concluded between it
and Honkarakenne Oyj. 

Honkarakenne has one operating segment, the manufacture, sales and marketing of
log houses, under the Honka brand. Geographically, the sales of the Group
divide as follows: Finland, Central Europe, Far East, and other countries. The
internal reporting of the management is in line with IFRS reporting. For this
reason, separate reconciliations are not presented. 

The figures have not been examined by the auditor.

Own shares

During the second quarter, by virtue of authorization granted by the AGM, the
Board of Directors of the company decided to organize a rights issue of 17,250
shares. In the rights issue, in an exception to the shareholders' subscription
privilege, Honkarakenne relinquished 17,250 Honkarakenne B shares for the
subscription of Honka Management at a price of EUR 5.26 per share. As a result
of the issue, management group members now own 5.5% of Honkarakenne's shares
and 2.63% of the company's voting rights. Because Honka Management Oy has been
consolidated into the figures for the Honkarakenne Group, the purchase cost for
these shares has been entered in the consolidated accounts to reduce the
Group's shareholders' equity. 

At the end of the report period, the Group held 364,385 of its Honkarakenne B
shares with a total purchase price of EUR 1,377.609,57. These shares represent
7.05% of the company's capital stock and 3.35% of all votes.
