REGULATED INFORMATION
Pöyry - Interim report (Q1 and Q3)
INTERIM REPORT 1 JANUARY - 30 JUNE 2008
PÖYRY PLC Interim Report 23 July 2008 at 8.30 a.m.
INTERIM REPORT 1 JANUARY - 30 JUNE 2008
The Pöyry Group's net sales for the period under review increased by
21.8 per cent and were EUR 414.2 million (340.0 million in the same
period 2007). Profit before taxes increased by 59.5 per cent to EUR
53.1 (33.3) million.
The Group's consolidated balance sheet is healthy. The equity ratio
was 44.9 (46.2) per cent and the net debt/equity ratio (gearing)
-31.2 (-29.7) per cent.
Earnings per share improved by 60.5 per cent to EUR 0.61 (0.38) and
the return on investment 52.3 (38.2) per cent.
The order stock was EUR 555.7 million (562.8 at the end of 2007). The
number of personnel increased by 9.3 per cent and was 7943 at the end
of the review period (7269 at the end of 2007).
Consolidated net sales will increase during 2008. Profit before taxes
will improve clearly in 2008.
At the beginning of 2008 the Group announced that the profit before
taxes for 2008 was expected to improve compared to 2007. In June the
Group specified its 2008 earnings estimate, stating that the profit
before taxes is estimated to improve clearly in 2008. The improvement
of the profit expectation was caused by the Forest Industry business
group's favourable earnings development during January-May, and by
orders received during the spring which create a good work load also
for the rest of the year in the Forest Industry business group.
The interim report has been prepared in accordance with the IAS 34
following the same accounting principles as in the annual financial
statements for 2007. In the Financial Statements for 2008 the Group
will also adopt the new pronouncement "IFRIC 14 IAS 19 - The Limit on
a Defined Benefit Asset, Minimum Funding Requirements and their
Interaction". The pronouncement has no significant effect for the
Group.
The data in this interim report are unaudited.
Business groups
Energy
Net sales for the period under review were EUR 120.2 (103.2) million.
Operating profit was EUR 13.9 (9.9) million.
Demand for energy related services has remained good in Europe. The
demand situation in other geographical market areas is stable.
Investments in the energy sector have grown strongly during the past
few years, resulting in a shortage of project implementation
capacity. This has also resulted in increased investment costs. These
factors have contributed to the delays in implementing certain
projects.
The order stock is good, amounting to EUR 195.8 million at the end of
the review period (212.7 at the end of 2007). The most important new
projects were the engineering services contract for a new 750 MW
combined cycle power plant in Vietnam by PetroVietnam Nhon Trach 2
Power JS Company (EUR 3.8 million), the implementation engineering
services contracts by Stora Enso Oyj for combined heat and power
plant projects in Belgium and Germany (EUR 3 million) and the
engineering services contract for a new 2x30 MW coal-fired power
plant project in Kalimantan, Indonesia by PT Makmur Sejahtera Wisesa
(EUR 2 million).
Forest Industry
Net sales for the period under review were EUR 165.2 (132.0) million.
Operating profit amounted to EUR 30.5 (16.4) million. The favourable
earnings development during the review period is due to good capacity
utilisation, the successful completion of some major projects, and
the good financial performance and demand situation in Latin America.
Because of the limited availability of pulpwood the volume of
investments in Latin America is not estimated to remain at its
current level over the next few years.
New investments in the forest industry have mostly taken place in
emerging markets. Demand for chemical industry related and local
services has remained stable, as has demand for management consulting
services.
The business group's order stock has increased and is on a good
level, amounting to EUR 126.7 million (123.8 at the end of 2007). The
most important new projects received during the review period were
the engineering contract with Propapier GmbH for their paper machine
project at a new site in Eisenhüttenstadt, Germany (EUR 10 million),
the EPCM (Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management)
services contract with Roal Oy for an enzyme plant development
project in Rajamäki, Finland (EUR 3 million) and engineering services
for the rebuild of Mondi's Syktyvkar pulp mill in Russia (EUR 10
million).
Infrastructure & Environment
Net sales for the period under review were EUR 128.0 (104.2) million.
Operating profit was EUR 9.8 (7.2) million.
Demand for infrastructure and environment related services has
remained stable. The business group continued to strengthen its
position in local and international markets.
The order stock amounted to EUR 232.8 million (226.3 at the end of
2007), which is a good level. The most important new projects were
the extension to the existing consultancy engineering contract with
Metro de Maracaibo C.A., Venezuela (EUR 5.5 million), the consultancy
assignments for three water sector projects in Nigeria, West Africa,
financed by the World Bank (EUR 3 million), the consultancy
assignment in a water sector project in Vietnam, financed by the
World Bank (EUR 2.5 million), the engineering contract with the
Ministry of Transport of Bulgaria for the rehabilitation of the
railway line between Sofia and Plovdiv (EUR 1.3 million), the
assignment by Vinh Phuc People's Committee, Vietnam to provide
engineering services for a multi-sector infrastructure upgrading
project (EUR 2.5 million) and the railway engineering services
contract in the Gotthard Base Tunnel project by the Swiss Transtec
Gotthard Consortium (EUR 10 million).
Group structure
Forest Industry
During the period under review, Pöyry acquired the remaining 30 per
cent of the shares of CJSC "Giprobum-Pöyry" (formerly ZAO Giprobum
Engineering), based in St. Petersburg, Russia. Pöyry now owns the
company's entire share capital. The company was consolidated into
Pöyry 100 per cent in 2007. The company is Russia's leading forest
industry engineering firm, which employs about 250 experts.
Infrastructure & Environment
IDP Consult Incorporated in the Philippines, which was acquired in
2007, has been consolidated into Pöyry as of the beginning of 2008.
The company has a staff of 30 and annual net sales of about EUR 1.0
million.
Pöyry has expanded its transportation business and market presence in
the infrastructure sector by acquiring 100 per cent of the shares of
Consilier Construct S.R.L, Romania in May 2008. Established in 1995,

employing about 220 experts. The company focuses on the
transportation market, in particular on the road and rail sectors.
Consilier Construct has a strong position in the transportation
sector but is also active in the water and environment and the
building sectors. In 2007 the company's net sales amounted to about
EUR 10 million. The acquisition represents an important step in
developing Pöyry's transportation sector activities in the Eastern
European market, which is expected to benefit substantially from the
integration of Romania and the other new EU member states into the
European Union. Consilier Construct will also play an active role in
expanding other Pöyry Group activities in Eastern Europe. Consilier
Construct has been consolidated into Pöyry as of 1 June 2008.
Pöyry has expanded its architectural design operations by acquiring
the entire share capital of Arket Oy, Espoo, Finland. Employing nine
architects, the company had net sales of EUR 0.8 million in 2007.
Arket Oy will be merged with Pöyry Architects Oy. Founded in 1988,
Arket Oy provides architectural design services for healthcare,
office, retail and industrial buildings. The company has also
extensive experience of total design and construction management
services projects.
Pöyry has expanded the services of its Infrastructure & Environment
business group by acquiring 100 per cent of the shares of Geopale Oy,
Jyväskylä, Finland. The company specialises in bedrock core
drillings. Employing 14 experts, the company's net sales in 2007
amounted to EUR 1.1 million. Founded in 1995, Geopale Oy has a

stock options 2004B.
Performance share plan 2008-2010
In December 2007 the Board of Directors of Pöyry PLC has approved a
new share-based incentive plan for key personnel of Pöyry.
The plan comprises three earning periods, which are the calendar
years 2008, 2009 and 2010. The rewards will be paid partly in the
company's shares and partly in cash in 2009, 2010 and 2011.
The shares must be held for an approximate period of two years from
the transfer date. No rewards shall be paid if the person or the
company gives notice of termination before the end of an earning
period. The paid reward must be returned to the company if the person
or the company gives notice of termination within two years from the
end of the earning period.
In the first earning period 2008, the incentive plan will include
approximately 300 persons. The value of the plan for the earning
period 2008 will correspond to the value of 270 000 shares if the
performance of the Group is in line with the earnings criteria for
target performance set by the Board of Directors. If the Group's
performance exceeds the target and reaches maximum performance, as
defined by the Board, the value of the plan can reach up to the value
of 540 000 shares for the earning period 2008. The potential reward
from the plan for the first earning period 2008 will be based on the
Group's earnings per share (EPS) and net sales growth.
During the period under review 90.8 per cent of the maximum rewards
for the earning period 2008 have been granted.
The fair value of the reward is expensed until the target group is
entitled to the reward and the shares are freely transferable. The
fair value of the share is the share price on the date at which the
target group has agreed to the conditions of the plan reduced by the
estimated dividends. The fair value of the cash proportion is
remeasured at each reporting date based on the share price at the
reporting date.
Authorisation to issue shares
The Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 10 March 2008 authorised the
Board of Directors to decide to issue new shares and to convey the
company's own shares held by the company in one or more tranches. The
share issue can be carried out as a share issue against payment or
without consideration on terms to be determined by the Board of
Directors and in relation to a share issue against payment at a price
to be determined by the Board of Directors.
A maximum of 11 600 000 new shares can be issued. A maximum of
5 800 000 own shares held by the company can be conveyed.
The authorisation is in force for three years from the decision of
the AGM.
The decision made by the AGM was published in its entirety in a stock
exchange notice on 10 March 2008.
The Board has not exercised the authorisation during the period under
review.
Authorisation to acquire the company's own shares
The AGM on 10 March 2008 authorised the Board of Directors to decide
to acquire the company's own shares with distributable funds on the
terms given below. The acquisition of shares reduces the company's
distributable shareholders' equity.
A maximum of 5 800 000 shares can be acquired. The company's own
shares can be acquired in accordance with the decision of the Board
of Directors either through public trading or by public offer at
their market price at the time of purchase.
The authorisation is in force for 18 months from the decisions of the
AGM.
The decision made by the AGM was published in its entirety in a stock
exchange notice on 10 March 2008.
The AGM on 5 March 2007 authorised the Board of Directors to decide
to acquire a maximum of 5 800 000 own shares of the company. On 10
December 2007 the Board of Directors resolved to exercise the
authorisation for the implementation of the Performance share plan
2008-2010 described above. 237 557 own shares were acquired during
the period 6 February to 7 March 2008. On 10 March 2008 the Board of
Directors resolved to exercise the authorisation given by the Annual
General Meeting 2008 and to continue the share buy back. By the end
of June 2008, 97 510 own shares have been acquired based on this
authorisation. The average price of the shares acquired on the basis
of the said authorisations was EUR 15.20. Furthermore a subsidiary of
Pöyry PLC owns 8 914 Pöyry PLC shares and thus the total amount of
own shares held by the company on 30 June 2008 was 343 981
representing 0.6 per cent of all shares and 0.6 per cent of all
votes. Additionally 10 000 own shares have been acquired after the
period under review.
Dividend
The Annual General Meeting decided that a dividend of EUR 0.65 be
distributed per outstanding share for 2007 (EUR 0.50 for 2006),
totalling EUR 38.0 million. The dividend was paid on 20 March 2008.
Share price
The company's shares are quoted on the OMX Nordic Exchange in
Helsinki. The average trading price during the period under review
was EUR 15.10, with a high of EUR 17.85 and a low of EUR 11.79. A
total of 9.2 million of the company's shares were traded, equalling
15.8 per cent of the total number of shares and corresponding to a
turnover of EUR 139.7 million.
Prospects
Energy
The economic development in China, Russia and Latin America, combined
with the expansion of the EU, create the basis for the demand for
energy-related services. The EU's expanding energy legislation will
continue to increase demand for management consulting services in the
energy sector. In addition, environmental legislation, focused in
particular on combating climate change, will boost demand for
services related to renewable energy and power plant modernisation.
The price of crude oil is not expected to decline much, which creates
new business opportunities in the oil and gas sectors. In the thermal
power sector, clients' actions will focus on diversifying the
structure of their energy supply to secure the continued availability
of energy. Nuclear power will acquire greater importance in
diversifying the energy supply. Because of the partly overheated
investment situation in the energy sector the implementation of
certain projects may be postponed. The business group has a strong
market position and a good order stock. The business group's
operating profit will improve in 2008.
Forest Industry
Overall demand for engineering services is not expected to change
much during 2008. Chemical pulp mill investments will mostly take
place in South America, Asia and Russia. The focus of paper machine
investments will be in the emerging markets of Asia and in some
economies in transition. Because of overcapacity and cost pressures
the challenging situation in the European and North American forest
industry will continue. Demand for project implementation and local
services will be promoted by new investments in biofuels and chemical
industry. To improve the competitiveness of the forest industry, new
solutions and actions will be needed to improve the efficiency of
operations and overall productivity. Possible forest industry
restructuring measures may result in increased demand for management
consulting and investment banking services. The global market
position of the business group is strong and its order stock is good.
The business group's operating profit will improve clearly in 2008.
Infrastructure & Environment
Transportation system investments will increase in Eastern Europe,
Asia and Latin America. The investment growth is supported by inputs
in this sector by various financial institutions. Transportation
system investments in Western Europe will remain stable. Climate
change and environmental problems create a need for services in the
water and environment sector. The strong growth of construction will
continue in Russia. The volume growth in the Finnish construction
market is levelling off during 2008. The business group's
comprehensive service packages and its focus on specific competence
areas will improve its competitiveness. The business group's order
stock has increased and its market position is good. The business
group's operating profit will improve clearly in 2008.
Group
The Group has a strong market position in all of its business areas.
The order stock is good. Consolidated net sales will increase in
2008. Profit before taxes will improve clearly in 2008. The
repercussions in other national economies of the uncertainty in the
US economy may have a negative impact on investment demand.
