Further corrections to the financial statement for 2010

In its financial statement for 2010, Lemminkäinen posted a liability in its
balance for the period. This had been omitted from the final settlement for a
joint venture submitted on 19 May 2008. In an additional settlement report
conducted in December in 2010, it was discovered that, under a legal
interpretation of the agreement, Lemminkäinen has a liability of EUR 1.5
million towards a party to the joint venture. This posting will have a total
impact of EUR 0.3 million on imputed tax receivables for 2010, of EUR 1.2
million on short-term liabilities and of EUR -0.9 million on profit for the
period. In addition, the posting has an effect on certain economic trend
indicators.
