The forceful measures that we took well in advance to enhance cost-effectiveness have been successful. The simultaneous move to make operations more customer-oriented provides a foundation for future growth, although product launches, marketing inputs and research and development projects raise costs in the short term. Global changes in the food chain will affect the rules in the food industry. To ensure the availability and sufficiency of Finnish grain raw material, Raisio actively participates in developing the whole grain chain. Competition has remained stiff in feeds. The Ylivieska plant, inaugurated in June, will considerably strengthen Raisio's competitive position in the future because the highly efficient plant has low operating costs and an ideal location in terms of logistics at the heart of Finland's milk-producing region. The CO2 emissions label that Raisio introduced in the spring has been very well received. Raisio's actions come as an answer to the quickly strengthening changes in living habits. I firmly believe that people are ready to move from words to action in order to curb climate change, and the Elovena CO2 label gives them important information in this respect. As a pioneer in plant-based, ecological food, and as one of Europe's most innovative grain companies, Raisio is in an extremely good position to answer the new challenges facing the food industry." RESULT FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS Raisio's turnover in April-June increased by 16.0% to EUR 122.9 million (EUR 106.1 million). The most significant growth was seen in the Feed & Malt Division. The Food Division's turnover amounted to EUR 49.7 million (EUR 48.5 million), while that of Feed & Malt was EUR 68.9 million (EUR 53.0 million) and that of Ingredients EUR 10.1 million (EUR 10.7 million). Turnover in January-June increased over 19 per cent year-over-year, totalling EUR 241.8 million (EUR 202.9 million). Turnover from outside Finland represented 38.3% (39.7%) of the total, or EUR 92.5 million (EUR 80.5 million). The Group's operating result in April-June totalled EUR 6.5 million (EUR 3.3 million). The Food Division posted an operating result of EUR 0.9 million (EUR ‑1.7 million), Feed & Malt EUR 4.2 million (EUR 2.9 million), Ingredients EUR 1.7 million (EUR 2.6 million) and other operations EUR -0.7 million (EUR -0.5 million). Operating result in January-June was EUR 10.7 million (EUR 4.4 million) and, including one-off items, EUR 14.9 million (EUR 4.4 million). In the first quarter, Raisio booked a one-off income item of EUR 4.2 million from the dissolution of joint ventures with Lantmännen, a Swedish corporation. Depreciations, allocated to operations in the income statement, amounted to EUR 4.4 million (EUR 4.4 million) in April-June and to EUR 8.8 million (EUR 8.7 million) in January-June. The second-quarter result before taxes was EUR 6.3 million (EUR 2.8 million), while that for January-June was EUR 10.4 million (EUR 4.9 million) and, including one-off items, EUR 14.7 million (EUR 4.9 million). Raisio's net financial income in April-June totalled EUR -0.2 million (EUR -0.3 million), and EUR -0.3 million in January-June (EUR 0.7 million). The second-quarter result after taxes was EUR 3.8 million (EUR 2.1 million), while that for January-June was EUR 6.9 million (EUR 3.8 million) and, including one-off items, EUR 11.1 million (EUR 3.8 million). Earnings per share in April-June were EUR 0.02 (EUR 0.01), in January-June EUR 0.04 (EUR 0.02) and, including one-off items, EUR 0.07 (EUR 0.02). Return on investment was 10.5 per cent (3.6%). BALANCE SHEET AND FINANCIAL POSITION At the end of June, Raisio's balance sheet total was EUR 346.6 million (EUR 360.3 million on 31 December 2007) and its equity was EUR 270.6 million (EUR 278.8 million on 31 December 2007). Equity per share at the end of June was EUR 1.73 (EUR 1.70 on 31 December 2007). The Group's interest-bearing debt at the end of June was EUR 15.3 million (EUR 7.2 million on 31 December 2007). Net interest-bearing debt totalled EUR -0.9 million (EUR -36.5 million on 31 December 2007). The equity ratio at the end of June was 78.2% (77.9% on 31 December 2007), and the net gearing ratio -0.3% (-13.1% on 31 December 2007). Cash flow from business operations in the second quarter was EUR 0.1 million (EUR 7.5 million) and EUR -10.1 million (EUR -11.2 million) in January-June. Working capital rose to EUR 125.1 million (EUR 100.5 million on 31 December 2007). The increase in working capital came from the higher value of inventories, a decrease in accounts payable and an increase in accounts receivable. Raisio's gross investments in April- June were EUR 4.7 million (EUR 5.8 million) and in January-June EUR 22.0 million (EUR 12.2 million), which corresponds to 9.1 per cent (6.0%) of turnover. CONTINUING OPERATIONS Food The Food Division's turnover in April-June amounted to EUR 49.7 million (EUR 48.5 million) and that of January-June to EUR 98.7 million (EUR 98.3 million). The Food Division's turnover figures are reported by market area. The Northern Europe market area includes Finland, Sweden and the Baltic countries, while Eastern Europe consists of Poland, Russia and neighbouring regions. Northern Europe increased its turnover year-over-year, when taking into account that the comparison period includes rice resale, which Raisio is no longer involved in, as well as partly unprofitable bakery flour sales. Their divestment decreased turnover but improved profitability. The sales of branded products increased. In early May 2008, Raisio launched a new flavour in the Elovena snack drink range. Sales of the drinks now exceed 1.5 million consumer packages. The Elovena snack drink range will be expanded again this autumn, and the products will be launched, for example, in Sweden and Poland. Raisio re-launched margarines under the Carlshamn Mejeri brand in Sweden. The brand is very well known in Sweden, and the products have been well received both among retail trade and consumers. Raisio will continue its growth inputs in Sweden by introducing new products and product groups. Turnover grew in the Eastern European markets. The sales of margarine and Benecol products increased year-over-year in Poland, while flake sales continued to grow in Russia. Margarine sales decreased further in Russia. In both countries, the product range was renewed to match consumer needs. Key figures for the Food Division -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | 4-6/2008 | 4-6/2007 | 1-6/2008 | 1-6/2007 | 2007 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Turnover, EUR million | 49.7 | 48.5 | 98.7 | 98.3 | 197.1 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Northern Europe | 34.9 | 36.0 | 70.0 | 72.6 | 148.1 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Eastern Europe | 16.0 | 13.4 | 31.5 | 27.9 | 53.9 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating result, EUR | 0.9 | -1.7 | 5.7 | -2.6 | -11.1 | | million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | One-off items, EUR | 0.0 | 0.0 | 4.2 | 0.0 | -5.3 | | million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating result, | 0.9 | -1.7 | 1.5 | -2.6 | -5.8 | | excluding | | | | | | | one-off items, EUR | | | | | | | million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | % of turnover | 1.8 | -3.6 | 1.5 | -2.7 | -2.9 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Investments | 1.4 | 1.0 | 15.1 | 4.4 | 7.2 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Net assets | - | - | 83.6 | 97.8 | 85.8 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The operating result for the Food Division clearly improved year-over-year in April-June, amounting to EUR 0.9 million (EUR -1.7 million). The Food Division posted its second consecutive profitable operating result. The Division's profitability improved from the comparison period thanks to cost-effectiveness, the divestment of unprofitable operations, the ongoing cutting of the product range, successful new product launches and the new, flexible pricing system. Operating result in January-June was EUR 1.5 million (EUR -2.6 million) and, including one-off items, EUR 5.7 million (EUR -2.6 million). In the first quarter, a one-off income item of EUR 4.2 million was booked in the Food Division's operating result, following the dissolution of the joint ventures with Lantmännen. Raisio will continue its measures to enhance cost-effectiveness. Raisio will also launch new products and product groups and continue its inputs in product development based on consumer needs, as well as in marketing communications. Feed & Malt The Feed & Malt Division's turnover in April-June increased by 30% to EUR 68.9 million (EUR 53.0 million). Turnover from malt increased by nearly 37 per cent and that of feeds by 30 per cent year-over-year. The increase came from the growth in feed sales volumes, as well as the transfer of higher raw material prices to the prices of end products. Despite stiff competition, Raisio strengthened its position in the feed market. Turnover in January-June totalled EUR 133.2 million (EUR 93.4 million), which means a year-over-year growth of more than 42 per cent. Key figures for the Feed & Malt division -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | 4-6/2008 | 4-6/2007 | 1-6/2008 | 1-6/2007 | 2007 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Turnover, EUR million | 68.9 | 53.0 | 133.2 | 93.4 | 206.7 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Feed | 56.2 | 43.4 | 109.1 | 78.0 | 175.5 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Malt | 11.9 | 8.7 | 21.2 | 14.4 | 30.1 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Other | 1.0 | 1.0 | 3.3 | 1.2 | 1.7 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating result, EUR | 4.2 | 2.9 | 5.9 | 3.4 | 14.2 | | million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | One-off items, EUR | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 6.0 | | million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating result, | 4.2 | 2.9 | 5.9 | 3.4 | 8.2 | | excluding | | | | | | | one-off items, EUR | | | | | | | million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | % of turnover | 6.1 | 5.5 | 4.4 | 3.6 | 4.0 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Investments | 2.6 | 2.7 | 4.9 | 4.6 | 16.7 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Net assets | - | - | 122.9 | 76.5 | 86.0 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Feed & Malt Division's operating result in April-June totalled EUR 4.2 million (EUR 2.9 million). The improvement came from the good financial performance in malt and the enhanced pressing margins in oil milling. Price competition continued to be stiff in the feed markets. Operating result in January-June totalled EUR 5.9 million (EUR 3.4 million). The Ylivieska feed plant was inaugurated on 23 June 2008, and production will be up and running at full speed in early 2009. The plant's delivery area produces half of Finland's milk and beef, and the region's livestock farms use around one-fourth of the feed mixes produced in Finland. The investment in the highly efficient plant was around EUR 20 million. Production at the Oulu plant will be wound down in autumn 2008. The grain markets have slowed down in anticipation of the new crop. The global crop of grain and oil plants will have a remarkable impact on future price development in Finland. Worldwide markets for grain raw material will continue to experience uncertainty and strong volatility. Ingredients Turnover in the Ingredients Division in April-June totalled EUR 10.1 million (EUR 10.7 million). Turnover decreased because of the drop in raw material prices. The sales of Benecol products increased in Great Britain and Poland, while in Belgium sales fell from the comparison period. Sales volumes corresponded to those of the comparison period. Turnover in January-June totalled EUR 22.8 million (EUR 23.1 million). Key figures for the Ingredients Division -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | 4-6/2008 | 4-6/2007 | 1-6/2008 | 1-6/2007 | 2007 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Turnover, EUR million | 10.1 | 10.7 | 22.8 | 23.1 | 44.9 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating result, EUR | 1.7 | 2.6 | 5.0 | 5.0 | 9.5 | | million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | One-off items, EUR | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | | million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating result, | 1.7 | 2.6 | 5.0 | 5.0 | 9.5 | | excluding | | | | | | | one-off items, EUR | | | | | | | million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | % of turnover | 17.4 | 24.1 | 22.1 | 21.8 | 21.2 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Investments | 0.2 | 1.8 | 0.9 | 4.1 | 7.5 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Net assets | - | - | 40.1 | 45.5 | 46.0 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating result in the Ingredients Division in April-June totalled EUR 1.7 million (EUR 2.6 million). Operating result in January-June totalled EUR 5.0 million (EUR 5.0 million). Raisio and its partners are preparing new product launches, but it is difficult to estimate the duration of permit processes in different countries. To secure growth in the European markets for cholesterol-lowering, functional foods, the Division must be able introduce new product applications and enhance co-operation with partners. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Raisio's R&D is based on a consumer- and customer-oriented approach. The development of new products emphasises flavour, pleasure, health, well-being and the environment. As one of the global pioneers in the sector, Raisio has equipped its Elovena oats with a label indicating the CO2 emissions of the product and has thus created a new labelling indicator. Raisio participates in several projects and will expand the use of its CO2 label in its consumer products during this year. Research and development costs amounted to EUR 1.4 million (EUR 1.3 million) in the second quarter, and to EUR 2.9 million (EUR 3.0 million) in the January to June period, representing 1.2 per cent (1.5%) of turnover. PERSONNEL Raisio employed 1,135 people at the end of June (1,239 on 30 June 2007), 29.3% of whom worked outside Finland (30.3 % on 30 June 2007). At the end of June, the Food Division had 694, Feed & Malt 304, Ingredients 67 and service functions 70 employees. The headcount also includes summer employees. Markku Krutsin, MSc (Econ. & Bus. Adm.) and MBA, Vice President of Raisio plc's Food Division, Northern Europe, and Jacek Dziekonski, MSc (Eng.) and MBA, Vice President of Raisio plc's Food Division, Eastern Europe, have been appointed members of the Group's management team as of 1 June 2008.

Foreign ownership of the entire share capital was 14.6 per cent (15.4% on 31 December 2007). Raisio's market value at the end of June amounted to EUR 280.8 million (EUR 248.4 million on 31 December 2007). Excluding the company shares held by the Group, the company's market value was EUR 266.6 million (EUR 235.8 million on 31 December 2007). At the end of the review period, Raisio plc held 8,158,500 free shares and 177,803 restricted shares. The number of free shares accounts for 6.24% of all free shares and the votes they represent, while the corresponding figure for restricted shares is 0.52%. In all, the company shares held by the Group represent 5.05% of the company's share capital and 1.43% of overall votes. Raisio plc's subsidiaries did not hold any shares in the parent company. The Raisio plc's Research Foundation, an affiliated association, holds 150,510 restricted shares, which is 0.44% of the restricted shares and the votes they represent and, correspondingly, 0.09% of the whole share capital and 0.37% of the votes it represents. A company share held by Raisio or its subsidiary does not entitle the holder to participate in the Annual General Meeting. SHARE-BASED INCENTIVE SCHEME In May 2008, the Board of Directors decided to set up a three-year, share-based incentive scheme as a part of the incentive and reward system offered to Raisio's key personnel. The goal is to integrate the targets of shareholders and key employees in order to increase the company's market capitalisation, to enhance the key employees' commitment to the company and to offer them a competitive reward system based on share ownership. The scheme gives authorisation during three years to distribute a maximum of 1,600,000 of Raisio plc's free shares already in the company's possession after the share repurchases carried out in 2005-2007. Rewards are paid as a combination of shares and cash. Cash payments are to cover the taxes and fiscal fees arising from share-based rewards. The financial year 2008 is the first earnings period in the scheme, which uses turnover growth and result before taxes, excluding one-off items, as earnings criteria. The maximum number of shares to be distributed is 400,000 free shares. The amount earned in rewards will be determined on the basis of the achievement of targets after the financial statements have been prepared in the spring of 2009. Any rewards will be paid to those covered by the scheme in August 2009. Shares distributed as part of the scheme are subject to a disposal restriction and return obligation, which last until 1 September 2011 and will be applied if the employee's employment or job contract end prior to the expiration of the disposal restriction. The scheme covers 15 people in the first earnings period. DECISIONS MADE AT THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING Raisio plc's Annual General Meeting approved the financial statements for the financial year 1 January - 31 December 2007 and discharged the members of the Supervisory Board and the Board of Directors, as well as the Chief Executive Officer, from liability. The Annual General Meeting decided to distribute a dividend of EUR 0.04 per share. The dividend was paid to shareholders on 8 April 2008. The Annual General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide on the repurchase of a maximum of 6,000,000 free shares and 1,500,000 restricted shares. The authorisation expires on 27 September 2009. Furthermore, the Annual General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide on share issues by (1) disposing all of the company shares and any repurchased shares - a maximum total of 16,500,000 shares, 2,269,500 of which can be restricted shares, and by (2) issuing a maximum of 16,500,000 new free shares against payment. The share issue authorisations will expire, at the latest, on 27 March 2013. Details of the authorisations are available in the stock exchange release issued on 13 February 2008. A stock exchange release about the decisions made by the Annual General Meeting was published on 27 March 2008. EVENTS AFTER THE REVIEW PERIOD On 3 July 2008, Raisio and Eurofins Scientific Finland Oy signed business divestment agreements by which Raisio outsources its laboratory operations to Eurofins. The 45 employees of Raisio's laboratory services will transfer to the employment of Eurofins on 1 September 2008 when the company takes over the laboratory business and assumes responsibility for the laboratory services needed by Raisio. Outsourcing laboratory activities will generate cost savings in the field of mass testing and will improve the service level, as Eurofins focuses its operations on the site in Raisio. RISKS AND SOURCES OF UNCERTAINTY IN THE NEAR FUTURE The biggest challenges in the near future come from controlling the volatility of raw material prices, as well as the amount and quality of the next crop, are the biggest challenges for the near future. Changes affecting the food industry and the growing profitability pressure felt in trade, the industry and among producers make the external operating environment challenging. According to the decision made by the Assessment Adjustment Board of the Tax Office for Major Corporations in November 2006, the sales profit of the divestment of Raisio Chemicals, totalling approximately EUR 220 million, is free of tax. The case is still under consideration in the Helsinki administrative court. Raisio's stand, supported by the expert statements obtained by the company, remains the same: the sales profit is free of tax. OUTLOOK Raisio's forecast of the Group's outlook for 2008 remains unchanged. Raisio's turnover is expected to increase, and the operating result from continuing operations in 2008, excluding one-off items, is expected to improve from the previous year. All divisions are expected to post profitable annual operating results, although the pressure on profitability will continue in feed. The overall operating result in the Food Division is expected to be profitable, although the target operating result rate of 5 per cent will probably not be achieved due to increased marketing inputs, new product launches and preparations for entry into new markets. The Ingredients Division is expected to increase turnover and improve profitability from the previous year.
