2011-02-10 10:00:00 CET 2011-02-10 10:01:15 CET REGULATED INFORMATION Okmetic Oyj - Financial Statement ReleaseOKMETIC'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR 1 JANUARY - 31 DECEMBER 2010OKMETIC OYJ STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 10 FEBRUARY 2011 AT 11.00 A.M. OKMETIC'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR 1 JANUARY - 31 DECEMBER 2010 Unless otherwise stated, figures in parenthesis refer to the corresponding period in the previous year. January-December 2010: - The net sales amounted to 80.9 (54.4) million euro, up 48.8%. - Operating profit was 9.8 (0.3) million euro corresponding to 12.1% of net sales. - Earnings per share for the period were 0.60 (-0.03) euro. - The net cash flow from operations amounted to 16.6 (6.3) million euro. - The board of directors will propose to the annual general meeting that a dividend of 0.30 euro per share will be distributed for the financial year 2010. October-December 2010: - The net sales amounted to 23.1 (13.8) million euro, up 67.0%. - Operating profit was 2.8 (-0.2) million euro corresponding to 12.0% of net sales. - Earnings per share for the period were 0.13 (-0.02) euro. - The net cash flow from operations amounted to 6.7 (1.9) million euro. PROJECTIONS FOR THE NEAR FUTURE In 2011, customer industries are estimated to continue their growth in all of Okmetic's main product groups. However, the forecasts are moderate so far. The development of sensor wafer demand in 2011 is expected to be more stable than that of semiconductor wafers. The growth estimate for sensor wafers in the current year is also a little higher than for semiconductor wafers. Technology sales are emphasised in solar crystal sales, and are intrinsically quite even over the course of the year. The net sales and operating profit in the first half of 2011 are estimated to exceed the level of the corresponding period in 2010. Reaching these estimates means that the current positive market situation must not see any significant changes at the beginning of the year. PRESIDENT KAI SEIKKU:"The pace of the semiconductor industry slowed towards the end of the year in accordance with normal seasonal fluctuation. Okmetic's order backlog enabled the level of production volumes in the third quarter to carry on into the final quarter of the year. Net sales in the last quarter include 1.7 million euro of low-margin polysilicon sales. This can be seen as growth of technology sales' relative share of net sales in comparison with the corresponding period in the previous year. Semiconductor contract manufacture based on the fab lite operating model remained on an upward curve throughout the financial year. Production volumes of SOI wafers that climbed month-by-month reached a record level in December. The concentration of in-house production on crystal growing and demanding sensor wafers will also continue within the next few years as the demand is increasing. The continuing development of productivity and production capacity is important for ensuring strong market position. The lower relative profitability in the last quarter in comparison to the third quarter resulted not only from the aforementioned polysilicon trading, but also from needs for spare parts and maintenance principally caused by significantly increased production volumes, fair value changes in currency- and electronic hedging and small non-recurrent items. On the other hand, the price level of silicon wafers that recovered during the year was also stable at the end of the year. The increase in the order backlog has normalised from the market overheating that occurred in the second and third quarters of 2010. In this respect, the market outlook has also normalised, i.e. is a little shorter than a year ago. The published forecasts for customer industries for 2011 are cautiously optimistic."

The development in sensor sales has been influenced by the increased use of micro sensors in many consumer electronics products. Sensor shipment volumes increased clearly during the second half of the year. The sale value of sensor industry in 2011 is expected to grow 9.5 percent compared to the previous year. In terms of volume, the sensor shipments will rise to a record high level. (IHS, iSuppli) Certain silicon-based microelectromechanical (MEMS) products within the sensor segment have higher growth rates than the others. The shipment volumes of gyroscopes experienced especially strong growth. Also, the demand of pressure sensors, accelerometers, microphones, and micromechanical filters increased. Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology is a good example of a rapidly growing sensor manufacturing technology. Okmetic is amongst the pioneering suppliers who provide these products and services to the sensor industry. Semiconductor industry The strong phase of growth in the semiconductor industry that began in the second half of 2009 levelled off in October-December 2010. The slump in monthly invoicing that was evident in the latter months of the year indicates that the semiconductor market is returning to a typical level of seasonal fluctuation (iSuppli). Of all the sectors of the semiconductor industry, in particular the growth in the sales of computers slowed down in October-December. At the beginning of 2010, their sales were very strong. (iSuppli, Gartner, IDC) In October-November, the monthly sales average of semiconductors remained at a level of over 26 billion US dollars. The semiconductor sales of 2010 reached a record level of 298 billion US dollars. (SIA) The halt in growth that took place at the end of the year is expected to be temporary. Signs of a new recovery are already evident, and demand is expected to be directed particularly towards mobile electronics applications such as smart phones and tablet computers. (Semiconductor Intelligence, iSuppli) The growth estimate for the semiconductor industry's sales in 2011 is between 4 and 10 percent. (WSTS, S&P, ICInsights, Gartner). It is expected that the growth rate will remain approximately at the same level until year 2012 (iSuppli, ICInsights, WSTS). Solar cell industry The industry's shipments (GW) approximately doubled compared to the previous year. Europe continued to be the greatest market area. Demand is forecasted to remain strong at the beginning of 2011. Capacity investments continue to grow throughout the solar cell industry's value chain. (IMS Research) Governmental decisions on subsidies have still a significant impact on the solar cell industry. This brings certain uncertainty to the future development of the market. Silicon wafer industry According to the report published in February 2011 by SMG, the group of silicon wafer suppliers in SEMI, the volume of wafer shipments in the silicon wafer industry in 2010 soared up 40 percent compared to the shipment volumes in 2009 reaching a new record level. The accumulated net sales rose 45 percent to 9.7 billion US dollars from 6.7 billion US dollars in the previous year. Similar to semiconductor market, silicon wafer market is estimated to grow moderately in 2011. In 2010, Okmetic's wafer shipments grew volume-wise slightly more than in the markets (44%), but when measured in euro, the net sales grew clearly more than in the markets (76%). In line with its strategy, Okmetic succeeded in increasing particularly the sales of its high added value products. Okmetic's central customer segments in the silicon wafer market In line with its strategy, Okmetic seeks for special areas of the entire silicon wafer market that have greater growth rates than the market average and in which the company has special know-how. Okmetic supplies primarily 150mm and 200mm wafers. The sensor/MEMS industry is Okmetic's central growth area. The MEMS market grows as the portable consumer products, automotive electronics, and industrial process control increase. In the semiconductor market, Okmetic's growth areas include discrete and power semiconductors. The growth areas of these markets are i.a. components used in the production of renewable energy, increasing automotive electronics, portable consumer products, developing applications of the medical and well-being industries as well as industrial process controlling. FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT IN OCTOBER-DECEMBER Okmetic's net sales increased by 67.0 percent compared to October-December 2009 and amounted to 23.1 (13.8) million euro. In October-December 2010, the operating profit was 2.8 (-0.2) million euro corresponding to 12.0 percent of net sales. The development of the group's net cash flow from operating activities remained strong and amounted to 6.7 (1.9) million euro in October- December. SALES In 2010, Okmetic's net sales increased by 48.8 percent (decreased by 19.9%), amounting to 80.9 (54.4) million euro. The semiconductor industry grew around 30 percent in 2010, which contributed to increase in net sales. Okmetic's market share grew in the product areas which are important to the company.

Within sensor wafers, the rise in production volumes of the strategically important SOI wafers was particularly positive. The use of sensors and the products' requirement level are expected to continue growing. Sensor applications are increasing in the automotive industry, and also particularly in consumer electronics products like smart phones, cameras, games consoles, and other mobile devices. Sales of semiconductor wafers increased particularly strongly during 2010 after the collapse in demand that took place in 2009. The shipment volumes of these wafers increased and the prices rose due to strong semiconductor market. Towards the end of the year, the growth of demand stabilised, and in the future growth expectations are more moderate. In 2010, technology sales had a relatively smaller role than in previous years and its net sales consisted of crystal sales.

The proportion of Europe of the total net sales decreased. PROFITABILITY In financial year 2010, Okmetic group's operating profit was 9.8 (0.3) million euro. The operating profit accounted for 12.1 (0.5) percent of net sales. The profit for the period amounted to 10.0 (-0.5) million euro. Earnings per share were 0.60 (-0.03) euro. FINANCING The group's financial situation is good. The net cash flow from operations amounted to 16.6 (6.3) million euro in 2010. In April, the group prematurely repaid 1.2 million euro worth of installments towards its long-term interest-bearing loans. The group's liabilities amounted to 1.0 (2.5) million euro at the end of the year. At the end of the year, cash and cash equivalents amounted to 14.0 (7.3) million euro. In addition to this, the company had 5.0 million euro worth of investments in fixed-income funds. On 31 December 2010, the company's cash and cash equivalents exceeded the interest-bearing liabilities by 18.0 million euro (on 31 December 2009 cash and cash equivalents were 4.8 million euro higher than interest-bearing liabilities). Return on equity amounted to 18.6 (-1.0) percent. At the end of the year, the group's equity ratio was 76.6 (78.9) percent. Equity per share was 3.49 (2.89) euro. INVESTMENTS In 2010, Okmetic's capital expenditure amounted to 2.2 (1.7) million euro. Most of the investments were allocated to increasing the production capacity of sensor wafers and to normal maintenance investments. PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT In 2010, the company expensed 2.1 (2.1) million euro in long-term product development projects. Product development costs accounted for 2.6 (3.9) percent of net sales. Product development costs have not been capitalised. In 2010, Okmetic's development work focused on SOI wafers with new additional features and on other further processed wafers as well as on improving the production processes. Okmetic engaged in several strategic research projects with customers, research institutes, and other partners and participated both in national technology programmes funded by Tekes, the leading Finnish funding agency for technology and innovation, and international EU-funded programmes. Okmetic's research and development work increases its technological expertise and competitiveness. Research and development focuses on developing new products and improving the features and the production process performance of the existing products, which aims at extending the products' life cycle. PERSONNEL The significance of the personnel as a factor contributing to Okmetic's success has been recognised in company strategy, and is emphasised in the values of the company and in its human resources and quality policies. On average, Okmetic employed 345 people in 2010 (2009: 337 and 2008: 364). At the end of the year, 305 of the group's employees worked in Finland, 35 in the US, and two in Japan. Women accounted for 27 (29) percent and men 73 (71) percent of the personnel. White-collar employees accounted for 36 (40) percent and blue-collar employees for 64 (60) percent. The average age of Okmetic's employees was 42 (41) years and the average length of employment was 10.3 (9.6) years. Salaries and bonuses are based on the level of skills required in each position throughout the organisation. In 2010, salaries and bonuses amounted to 19.8 million euro (2009: 15.9 million euro and 2008: 18.0 million euro) including 1.3 million euro expenses of the share reward schemes. The group's parent company complies with the collective labour agreements of the Technology Industries of Finland. All employee groups at Okmetic are eligible for an incentive scheme. Monthly targets are set for the blue-collar employees' productivity, and the resulting bonuses are paid once a month. White-collar employees are paid bonuses according to group level targets. Bonuses for meeting the targets are calculated as a percentage of the employees' annual income. The bonuses account for no more than 12-20 percent of annual income depending on the personnel group. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES Okmetic recognises the environmental risks associated with its business. The company devises both a universal risk management plan and plans for individual processes. Ecologically sustainable operations boost Okmetic's competitiveness and profitability. Measures devised for eliminating environmental risks are integrated to Okmetic's operational processes. Environmental considerations are factored into the development of products and business in line with continuous improvement principles. Planning of preventive measures is fundamental to managing environmental risks. Okmetic keeps an eye on environmental legislation development both in Finland and internationally, and adjusts its business to meet the latest regulations. For example, Okmetic follows the chemical regulations of the European Union (REACH) and all Okmetic's products meet the requirements set in the RoHS- directive. Okmetic has ISO 9001:2008, TS 16949 and ISO 14001 certified quality and environmental systems, and the company's plants have been built with environmental considerations in mind. Okmetic expects its most important subcontractors and suppliers to comply with the ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications. Okmetic recognises that the use of its main raw material, polysilicon, has an important environmental impact. The company does not produce essential volumes of emissions or waste, and the resulting costs are not significant from a business point of view. On a day-to-day level, Okmetic strives to use materials, water, and electricity as efficiently as possible. The company strives to recycle arising waste. Okmetic had no major environmental non-conformities in 2010. The acceptable emission limit values set for waste water treatment were exceeded on two occasions. In these instances the recorded values were nevertheless only just over the acceptable limits and corrective actions were implemented expediently. Okmetic's environmental management system was found to meet the requirements of the company's demanding international customers. The company is not subject to emissions trading regulations. The key figures on environmental protection at the Vantaa plant in 2010 are as follows: Energy consumption (GWh): electricity 34.2 (29.1), district heating 3.1 (2.5) Water consumption (tm3): water 558 (485), waste water 477 (365). Waste volumes (t): hazardous waste 187 (125), landfill waste 170 (68), recycled waste 244 (177). BUSINESS RISKS Okmetic's silicon wafer sales are targeted at the sensor and semiconductor producers in electronics industry. The demand for semiconductor wafers is sensitive to economic fluctuations and changes in the market situation can be sudden and dramatic. The demand for sensor wafers is more stable. The proliferation of sensors in consumer electronics applications may, however, increase the susceptibility of this market too to economic fluctuations. Irregular income recognition of significant technology projects in technology sales causes considerable variation in the results of the review periods. In recent times, however, technology sales have developed towards crystal sales, and this leads to a more even net sales development than before. The success of the sales strategy hinges on trouble-free manufacturing. Okmetic's share of the global silicon wafer market is around one percent and the market prices have a notable effect on the price development of Okmetic's products. The majority of sales are conducted in US dollars. The Japanese yen is another notable trading currency. Despite hedging, the company remains exposed to exchange rate fluctuations. Great volumes of electricity are used in Okmetic's production. Despite hedging, the company is also exposed to fluctuations in the price of electricity.
