Esa Rautalinko, President and CEO of Honkarakenne Oyj, in connection with the
financial statement release: 

”Honkarakenne's net result for the entire year was good, considering the
circumstances. At the beginning of 2010, the Group launched the improvement
programme with the objective to attain cost savings of EUR 5 million for the
year 2010. The impact of the improvement programme and the measures taken to
expedite sales, which were implemented simultaneously, was EUR 5.1 million,
meaning that the financial objectives of the improvement programme were
realised. 

As concerns net sales, it was pleasing that the net sales in Russia, part of
the Finland and the Other countries group, rose significantly. However, the net
sales in Central Europe were disappointing. 

The Group's result in the last quarter of the year was financially positive,
which can be considered a very good result. Honkarakenne Group's previous
financially positive result in the last quarter of the year was in 2006, with
net sales in that quarter totalling EUR 24.4 million. 

The main focus in 2011 will be on expediting sales. Honkarakenne will focus on
its premium and luxury strategy and further consolidating it. On the domestic
market, growth will especially be sought in the residential house business,
with Honkarakenne's extremely high-quality environmentally-friendly low-energy
solutions, also for areas zoned for stone buildings. In exports, premium
products, such as Honka Fusion™, will be developed further, and new markets are
opened for it. In the Far East and Other countries group, growth will also be
sought by expanding the sales network.” 

NET SALES

Honkarakenne Group's net sales for the year 2010 increased by 11 per cent to
EUR 58.1 million (EUR 52.3 million), the net sales in Finland rose by 15 per
cent to EUR 27.3 million (EUR 23.8 million), and export net sales grew by 8 per
cent to EUR 30.8 million (EUR 28.5 million). 

The Group's last-quarter net sales in 2010 grew by 17 per cent to EUR 15.0
million (EUR 12.7 million). The net sales in Finland grew by 11 per cent to EUR
5.7 million (EUR 5.1 million), and export net sales grew by 21 per cent to EUR
9.3 million (EUR 7.6 million).

efficiency-improving projects and 18% to financing arrangements. 

The Group's net result after taxes was EUR 1.1 million. Unregistered tax claims
totalling EUR 0.9 million from previous years have been refunded. 

FINANCING AND INVESTMENTS

The financial position of the Group is satisfactory. The equity ratio stood at
42% (29%) and interest-bearing net liabilities at EUR 12.8 million (EUR 18.4
million). EUR 3.2 million of the interest-bearing net liabilities carries a 30%
minimum equity ration covenant term. Group liquid assets totalled EUR 1.9
million (EUR 1.7 million). The Group also has a EUR 10.0 million bank overdraft
facility, EUR 3.2 million of which had been drawn on at the end of the report
period (EUR 5.1 million). Gearing stood at 73% (149%). The company's capital
expenditure in 2010 totalled EUR 0.5 million (EUR 2.5 million). The financial
position of the Group is expected to further improve in 2011. 

MARKET DEVELOPMENT

Based on a report commissioned by RTS Oy, Finnish log house production value is
estimated to have grown by 16% in 2010. The figure includes production for
Finland and for overseas export. 

PRODUCTS AND MARKETING

In 2010, Honkarakenne implemented changes to enhance profitability in line with
the improvement programme, especially in Finland to its sauna and vacation
house collections that also modernised the product range in a customer oriented
fashion. The changes concentrated on the development of industrial production
efficiency of the models as well as on the improvement of product quality and
design. 

In Central Europe focus was placed on the sales of the Honka Fusion™ concept
that was launched the previous year. Honka Fusion™ combines strong
architectural design, innovative structure solutions and energy-efficiency in
an unparalleled manner. Architects have the freedom to combine log, glass and
rock surfaces while maintaining the modern energy-efficiency standards as well
as the excellent indoor air quality of a log structure. Due to the non-settling
log of Honka Fusion™, the surface of the structure can be plastered, for
example, if necessary. This also enables log building in areas zoned for stone
buildings. 

The Effecta™ house model collection was launched in the Far East in the
beginning of the year. It utilises cost-effective structural solutions and
choice of components. 

In the Other countries areas, it was noteworthy that deliveries started during
the second quarter to the second-stage planning area in Copperlake, near St.
Petersburg, comprising almost 80 apartments. In the first-stage of Copperlake,
Honkarakenne delivered 45 premium-level houses to the area in 2005-2008. 

In the last quarter of the year, Honkarakenne launched a significant number of
new low-energy solutions. A new range of low-energy residential houses was
launched. The energy consumption of the Honkarakenne low-energy models is
approximately 30% lower than that of houses built according to the current
standards. For example, the wooden city area which is being constructed in
Myllypuro, Helsinki, will feature several Honkarakenne low-energy buildings. 

For the part of vacation low-energy solutions, Honkarakenne has, in addition to
the energy-efficient wall solutions, a concept that makes it possible to leave,
in a simple manner, vacation houses unheated for the winter season without
harming the structures. 

In 2010, Honkarakenne launched an even more air-tight and energy-efficient log
profile and a corner notch solution on all its markets. In addition, the new
log profile creates a unique visual appearance. The dark shadow line between
the logs is minimised and the hole in the inside corners, characteristic of log
buildings, can be eliminated with new notching solutions. During the fourth
quarter, the air-tightness of the log walls was improved by installing sealing
between logs in certain log models at the factory. This decreases overall
building costs and further improves the energy-efficiency of walls. As with
Honkarakenne's other products, all modifications are breathing and therefore
make possible a healthy indoor air of excellent quality. 

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

In January-December, the Group's R&D expenditures were EUR 0.6 million (EUR 0.6
million), 1.1% of net sales (1.2%). The Group has not activated development
costs during the financial year. 

STAFF

At the end of the year, the Group employed 291 people (351) on average. This is
60 less than at the same time in the previous year. 

In the first quarter, the parent company concluded co-operation negotiations,
which resulted in 33 notices of termination, of which 12 were pension schemes.
In addition, 45 lay-offs of indefinite period were made. In the second quarter,
the parent company agreed on authorisation for fixed-term layoffs of a maximum
of 90 days until the end of 2010. In the last quarter, the parent company
agreed on authorisation for fixed-term layoffs of a maximum of 60 days until
the end of May 2011. 

HONKARAKENNE OYJ'S 2010 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING, BOARD OF DIRECTORS, AND AUDITORS

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Honkarakenne Oyj was held at the company's
headquarters in Tuusula on 26 March 2010. The AGM confirmed the financial
statements of the parent company and Group and discharged from liability the
board members and CEOs for 2009. The AGM decided not to pay divided for the
2009 financial year. 

Mauri Saarelainen, Tomi Laamanen, Mauri Niemi, Pirjo Ruuska, Lasse Kurkilahti
and Marko Saarelainen were elected to the Board of Directors. The Board's
organisation meeting elected Lasse Kurkilahti the Chairman of the Board. 

Chartered accountant community KPMG Oy Ab was again selected to be the auditor,
the main auditor being Ari Eskelinen. 

HONKARAKENNE OYJ'S DIRECTED ISSUES, EXECUTIVES' INCENTIVE PLAN, OWN SHARES, AND
AUTHORISATIONS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS 

The issue of 1,200,000 Honkarakenne B shares and the increase in share capital
were implemented and entered into the Trade Register at the beginning of
February 2010. The Board of Directors allocated the 1,200,000 B shares to
subscribers at EUR 2.90 per share. The total subscription price of the new
shares amounted to EUR 3,480,000, resulting in an increase of EUR 2,400,000 in
the share capital with the remainder recorded in the invested non-restricted
equity fund. 

In connection with the directed issue, Honkarakenne sold some of the equity
shares that it held to a restricted circle of the company's key personnel. The
number of shares sold was 118,500 at EUR 2.90 per share. 

During the second quarter, the Board of Directors of Honkarakenne Oyj decided
on a new incentive plan directed to the members of the Honkarakenne Executive
Group. On the basis of authorisation granted by the General Meeting of
Shareholders of Honkarakenne, the Board of Directors of Honkarakenne decided on
a share issue against payment. In the share issue, a maximum of 220,000
Honkarakenne new series B shares were issued for subscription by Honka
Management Oy at the price of EUR 3.71 per share, in derogation from the
shareholders' pre-emptive subscription rights. The total subscription price of
the new shares was recorded in the invested non-restricted equity fund. In
addition, the top management, acting within the incentive plan, acquired 49,000
Honkarakenne series B shares in the name of the established limited company,
Honka Management Oy. The share acquisition was financed by personal investments
by the top management amounting to EUR 200,000 as well as by a loan provided by
Honkarakenne to the amount of EUR 800,000. The plan will be valid until summer
2014, at which time it is intended to be dissolved. Through the implementation
of the plan, the members of the Executive Group hold 5.2% of all Honkarakenne's
shares and 2.47% of all Honkarakenne's votes. As Honka Management Oy will be
consolidated to the overall figures of the Honkarakenne Group, the acquisition
expenses of these shares have been entered in the consolidated financial
statements as a deduction to the Group's equity. 

Honkarakenne has not acquired its own shares during the report period. The
number of shares held by the Group has increased with the consolidation of
Honka Management Oy. 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. 

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 carries one
(1) vote and each A share carries twenty (20) votes. Hence, Honkarakenne's
shares in aggregate carry a total of 10,870,792 votes. The company's total
share capital is EUR 9,897,936.00. 

The AGM decided on 26 March 2010 that the Board of Directors be granted
authorisation to acquire own B shares up to 400,000 pieces with funds of the
company's non-restricted equity fund. In addition, the AGM authorised the Board
of Directors to decide on a share issue against or without payment and issue of
special rights in one or several batches giving right to shares under the
Limited Liability Companies Act, Chapter 10, Section 1. By virtue of the
authorisation, the Board of Directors can issue new shares and/or assign old B
shares held by the company up to 1,200,000 pieces in total including the shares
that can be given under special rights. Both of these authorisations are valid
until 25 March 2011. 

OWNERSHIP CHANGES IN ASSOCIATED COMPANIES

Honkarakenne Oyj made a deal on 29 December 2009 to sell its owner share of 15%
of window manufacturer PW-Windows Oy that operates in Ikaalinen. The deal was
realised in accordance to the terms in January 2010. Honkarakenne relinquished
its ownership in PW-Windows Oy as part of the streamlining of the Group's
structure and improvement of purchasing operations. 

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. 

FUTURE OUTLOOK

The objective for the year 2011 is to attain net sales and a net result
exceeding those of the previous year. As in the previous year the first quarter
of the year will be financially negative due to seasonal variation. 

The Group's order book totalled EUR 18 million at the end of December (EUR 23
million at the same time the previous year). The order book includes orders
whose delivery date is within the next 24 months. Some orders may feature
conditions related to building permits or financing. At the end of the
financial year, the order book was 21.7% smaller than at the same time the
previous year. 

FORTHCOMING RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

During the economic recession, a clear change in the purchase behaviour of
customers has been noted. The time-span of binding orders has shortened
significantly. In the past, construction project orders were made considerably
more in advance than at the moment. At the start of the last quarter of the
2010 financial year, the order book was considerably lower compared with the
previous year but net sales were at a significantly higher level. This
time-span change poses a significant risk concerning the entire year's result
forecast of Honkarakenne. 

The reaction time to adjust costs and production volumes is clearly shorter
than before. Honkarakenne has prepared for this by agreeing on authorisation
for 60-day fixed-term employee-specific layoffs until the end of May 2011. In
addition, Honkarakenne has developed its sales control system to be more
proactive. 

The consolidated financial statements include EUR 2.7 million (EUR 3.2 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 signed during the
second quarter of the year. The payment plan was specified in the last quarter
of the year. These sales receivables have diminished during 2010. 

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.

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 2009, yet so that Honkarakenne has applied the new and
changed standards and interpretations introduced in 2010. The most significant
of these are: IFRS 3 (revised), Business Combinations and IAS 27 (revised),
Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. 

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 this 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

Own shares

Honkarakenne Oyj has not acquired its own shares during the report period. In
connection with the directed issue in January, the company sold some of the
equity B shares that it held to a restricted circle of the company's key
personnel. The number of shares sold was 118,500 at EUR 2.90 per share. 

During the second quarter, the Board of Directors of Honkarakenne Oyj decided
on a new incentive plan directed to the members of the Honkarakenne Executive
Group. On the basis of authorization granted by the General Meeting of
Shareholders, the company's Board of Directors decided on an issue of 220,000
shares with payment. In the share issue, 220,000 Honkarakenne's new B shares
were issued for subscription by Honka Management at the price of EUR 3.71 per
share, in derogation from the shareholders' pre-emptive subscription rights. In
addition, the executives within the incentive plan acquired 49,000 Honkarakenne
B shares in the name of the established limited company Honka Management Oy.
Through the implementation of the plan, the members of the Executive Group hold
5.2% of all Honkarakenne's shares and 2.47% of all Honkarakenne's votes. As
Honka Management Oy will be consolidated to the overall figures of the
Honkarakenne Group, the acquisition expenses of these shares have been entered
in the Group's financial statement as a deduction to the Group's 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.
