Business review
In the third quarter, market demand for consumer packaging in the
majority of the mature markets was stable. However, in North America
a slowdown in demand was experienced, especially in September. Demand
continued healthy in the emerging markets. While the prices for the
main raw materials remained on a high level during the quarter, they
showed a clear increase compared to the average level of the previous
year.
Volume growth (+3%), although slower than expected, and price/mix
changes (+2%) had a positive impact on reported net sales of EUR
582.4 million (+4%). The impact from currency translations on net
sales was negative (-1%).
In January-September, net sales was EUR 1,753.2 million (+2%). The
geographical distribution of sales was the following: Europe 53%
(53%), Americas 30% (31%) and Asia-Oceania-Africa 17% (16%).

In Europe, sales growth within Consumer Goods segment in the third
quarter was solid in the Flexibles business and improving in the
Films business after temporary issues following the implementation of
the new enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform. While sales
performance in the Rigid Consumer Goods business was overall stable,
weakness in sales continued in the UK and was also experienced in
Southern Europe. Within Foodservice segment, sales growth remained
healthy driven by Eastern and Southern Europe. For the quarter, the
reported net sales was EUR 310.2 million (+5%) with a positive impact
from volume (+5%).
The region's underlying EBIT was EUR 14.7 million (-1%),
corresponding to an EBIT margin of 4.7% (5.0%). This reflects
favorable volume development and recovering profitability of the
Films business, offset by weaker than expected price/mix development.
The reported EBIT was EUR 14.7 million. In the previous year the
reported EBIT of EUR 13.2 million included restructuring charges of
EUR 1.7 million.
With reference to the earlier announced programs, the capacity
expansion in Foodservice beverage cups in several European units was
completed during the quarter.
In January-September, net sales was EUR 935.4 million (+4%). The
underlying EBIT of EUR 43.0 million (-12%) corresponded to an EBIT
margin of 4.6% (5.4%). The reported EBIT was 43.0 million (EUR 39.9
million).

In the Americas, sales declined within Consumer Goods segment
especially in the Frozen desserts and the Pet food categories during
the quarter. The shortfall was partially mitigated by sales growth in
Retail within Foodservice segment. Growth in the South American Rigid
businesses continued on a good level. For the quarter, the positive
impact from price/mix changes (+6%) compensated for the decline in
volume (-2%). The reported net sales of EUR 170.0 million (-2%) was
depressed by currency translations (-6%).
The region's underlying EBIT was EUR 13.5 million (-3%),
corresponding to an EBIT margin of 7.9% (8.1%). This reflects volume
shortfall and negative currency impact offset by favorable mix
development, diligent price management and continued improvement in
operational efficiency.
The new capacity added to the existing flexibles packaging facility
in Malvern, USA, is on track and scheduled to be operational by
year-end 2007.
In January-September, net sales was EUR 518.9 million (-4%). The
underlying EBIT of EUR 52.2 million (+10%) corresponded to an EBIT
margin of 10.1% (8.8%).

In Asia-Oceania-Africa, sales performance within Consumer Goods and
Foodservice segments was solid during the third quarter. In Asia,
volume growth remained favorable driven by the Flexibles business,
especially with the introduction of new capacity in Rudrapur, India.
In Oceania, sales growth in the Rigid businesses was overall steady.
For the quarter, there was continued volume growth (+5%) and a
positive impact from price/mix changes (+3%). The reported net sales
of EUR 102.2 million (+11%) was boosted further by currency
translations (+3%).
The region's underlying EBIT was EUR 4.5 million (-40%),
corresponding to an EBIT margin of 4.4% (8.2%). This reflects
start-up costs associated with investments in new capacity,
especially in Guangzhou, China, as well as unfavorable margin
development in India. In Oceania Foodservice, weakness in operational
result was due to one-off items and operational inefficiency.
The relocation from Hong Kong, China, to the new rigid packaging
facility in Guangzhou, China, progressed and is expected to be
completed during the first quarter of 2008. Construction work at the
new flexibles packaging facility in Bangkok, Thailand, started during
the quarter with production expected to commence around mid 2008.
In January-September, net sales was EUR 298.9 million (+8%). The
underlying EBIT of EUR 15.5 million (-13%) corresponded to an EBIT
margin of 5.2% (6.4%).
Financial review
In the third quarter, the underlying EBIT before corporate items was
EUR 32.7 million (-10%), corresponding to an EBIT margin of 5.6%
(6.5%). Corporate net was EUR 0.5 million (EUR 3.4 million)
reflecting the expected reduction in royalty income.
The underlying Group EBIT was EUR 33.2 million (EUR 39.8 million),
corresponding to an EBIT margin of 5.7% (7.1%). The reported EBIT was
EUR 33.2 million. In the previous year the reported EBIT of EUR 38.1
million included restructuring charges of EUR 1.7 million.
At EUR -10.7 million (EUR -9.0 million), the increase in net
financial items was mainly due to higher interest rates and debt
level. The reported profit for the period was EUR 18.7 million (EUR
26.6 million), and EPS was EUR 0.18 (EUR 0.25).
In January-September, the Group's underlying EBIT was EUR 106.6
million (-20%), corresponding to an EBIT margin of 6.1% (7.8%). This
reflects mainly a EUR 24.1 million reduction in corporate net as well
as a weaker operational result. The reported EBIT was 106.6 million.
In the previous year the reported EBIT of EUR 125.1 million included
restructuring charges of EUR 8.8 million. Net financial items were
EUR 30.9 million (EUR 27.4 million). The income tax expense was EUR
13.5 million (EUR 13.9 million), corresponding to a tax rate of 17.8%
(14.2%). The reported profit for the period was EUR 62.5 million (EUR
84.1 million), and EPS was EUR 0.61 (EUR 0.82).
The average number of outstanding shares used in the EPS calculation
was 100,426,461 (98,935,107) excluding 5,061,089 (unchanged)
company's own shares.
On a rolling 12-month basis, the return on investment (ROI) was 7.8%
(9.8%) and return on equity (ROE) was 8.7% (11.8%).
Balance sheet and cash flow
In the end of the third quarter, free cash flow of EUR -2.0 million
(EUR 9.6 million) was impacted by an increase in capital expenditure
to EUR 35.4 million (EUR 27.3 million) as well as elevated level of
working capital. In January-September, free cash flow was EUR -44.7
million (27.3 million) with capital expenditure of EUR 92.5 million
(EUR 73.3 million).
Net debt at the end of the third quarter was EUR 783.4 million (EUR
687.1 million), corresponding to a gearing ratio of 0.90 (0.81).
Personnel
The Group had 14,963 (14,521) employees on September 30, 2007.
Strategic measures to accelerate earnings growth
All businesses will focus on improving profitability and the earlier
confirmed financial targets for the Group remain unchanged. Enhanced
shareholder value will be created through focused growth,
capitalizing on Huhtamaki's positions of strength.
The Flexibles and Films businesses will expand globally and be
recognized as an innovative leader and a best-in-class performer in
chosen product and market segments. Investments will be targeted on
strengthening the position especially in North America and Asia.
Rigid Food and Beverage Packaging will grow selectively with
particular focus on Foodservice in Europe and Asia and on Retail in
North America. Huhtamaki's leading paper and fiber capabilities
strengthen its position also as a supplier of sustainable packaging
alternatives.
Huhtamaki will decrease its presence in such business areas that do
not meet the profitability requirements or do not create value in the
execution of the Group strategy. As a consequence, Huhtamaki is
considering different strategic options for its Consumer Goods
business unit in the UK and all of its operations in South Africa.
Events after the reporting period
Huhtamaki revised the 2007 full-year outlook downwards on October 10,
2007. The revision was due to weakened volumes and operational
results in September as well as softer volume outlook in the
remainder of the year.
In the short-term, measures are being taken to adjust costs to meet
the current volume levels. These include adaption of manning and
overall cost containment.
Short-term risks and uncertainties
Volatile raw material and energy prices as well as movements in
currency translations are considered to be significant short-term
business risks and uncertainties in the Group's operations.
Outlook for 2007
The operational result is expected to be around the level of 2006
(EUR 138.1 million). There will be a significant reduction in
corporate net mainly due to lower royalty income. Consequently, the
underlying EBIT for the full-year is estimated to remain clearly
below the level of 2006 (EUR 157.6 million). Increase in net
financial items and higher tax rate will have an impact on earnings.

Changes in accounting principles
The Group has adopted the following IFRS standards and
interpretations
considered applicable to Huhtamaki, with effect from January 1, 2007:"IAS 1 Presentation of Financial statements: Capital disclosures:
The Amendment to IAS 1 requires information about capital and capital
management during the accounting period.
IFRIC 8 Scope of IFRS 2 Share-Based Payments: The interpretation
applies
to share-based payments, where the received compensation is below
the fair value of granted equity instrument.
IFRIC 9 Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives: The interpretation
requires
the determination of whether the arrangement contains embedded
derivatives,
which have to be reported separately as derivative instruments.
IFRIC 10 Interim Financial reporting and Impairment: IFRIC 10 denies
to
reverse the impairment charge reported in interim report at later
closing dates."
