OKMETIC OYJ   STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE  20 OCTOBER 2010     AT 8.00 A.M.

OKMETIC ADJUSTS ITS ESTIMATE FOR 2010

Okmetic adjusts its estimate of the net sales and operating profit for 2010. The
net sales of 2010 is estimated to be on the level of around 80 million euro
(previously around 75 million euro or slightly more). Operating profit for the
entire year is estimated to be around 12-14 percent of net sales (previously it
was estimated to be in accordance with the company's 10 percent long-term
objective). Silicon wafer demand is slowing down according to normal seasonal
variation in the last quarter of the year. Net sales and operating profit
estimates are based on the order intake. Reaching these estimates means that the
current positive market situation must not see any significant changes during
the last weeks of the year.
