PartnerTech AB has been consolidated into Scanfil Group as of 1 July 2015.
The operating profit for January-September includes a total of EUR 4.2 million
of non-recurring expenses, comprised of EUR 2.1 million of entries related to
the acquisition of PartnerTech AB and a write-down of EUR 2.1 million related
to the Hungarian operations. 

Scanfil revised its estimate of its turnover and operating profit in 2015, on
24 September 2015, estimating that the turnover will be EUR 360-385 million and
the operating profit before non-recurring items will amount to EUR 17-21
million. 

Scanfil's previous estimate was that its turnover for 2015 will be EUR 350 -
365 million and operating profit before non-recurring items for 2015 was
estimated to be EUR 14 - 18 million. 

Petteri Jokitalo, CEO of Scanfil plc:"Scanfil's business operations developed favourably during the third quarter,
with the growth in demand focusing on Europe. In particular, the development of
PartnerTech's turnover and profitability has been strong. 

I am satisfied with the progress of the integration of PartnerTech. The new
management has been appointed and will start as of the beginning of November.
Measures to realize the synergy benefits are proceeding with the aim of
pursuing annual synergy benefits of EUR 5 million as of 2017, at the latest.
Feedback from customers on the acquisition and merger of the companies has been
positive. We are making good progress to leverage our larger factory network,
wider service range and higher volumes to increase competitiveness and customer
satisfaction."

ACQUIRED BUSINESS OPERATIONS

On 25 May 2015, Scanfil Plc announced a public tender offer to the shareholders
in PartnerTech AB  to tender all shares in PartnerTech to Scanfil for SEK 35
per share. A total of 12 487 738 shares had been tendered by the end of the
acceptance period, corresponding to 98.6 percent of the shares and the voting
rights in PartnerTech. The company has commenced the compulsory acquisition
process to acquire the remaining shares. PartnerTech AB has been removed from
the Main List of Nasdaq Stockholm. 

The acquisition date of PartnerTech A was 2 July 2015. The purchase price for
the current 98.6% holding is EUR 47.0 million. Scanfil financed the acquisition
with a loan granted by Nordea Bank Finland Plc. Information on the acquired net
assets is provided in the tables of the interim report. Of the purchase price,
EUR 10.8 million was allocated to long-term customer relationships (including
net deferred tax liabilities), and EUR 7.1 million of unallocated goodwill was
recognized from the acquisition. 

Scanfil believes that the merged company can increasingly meet customer needs
globally.  The merger will expand Scanfil's service portfolio and factory
network, as well as improve competitiveness e.g. through higher procurement
volumes. The significantly expanded customer base will provide a great deal of
new growth opportunities and decrease the customer risk. No single customer or
customer segment dominates the company's sales; the biggest customer
contributes less than 15% and the biggest customer segment contributes about
35% of sales. 

The integration of the companies has begun. The aim is to achieve annual cost
synergy benefits of EUR 5 million by 2017.  Restructuring of units with weak
profitability and trimming of overlapping functions may cause non-recurring
items during the next few years. 

BUSINESS TRENDS

Scanfil's turnover clearly increased year-on-year during the review period and
stood at EUR 234.5 (164.9) million.  The increase in sales is primarily
attributable to the acquisition of PartnerTech on 1 July 2015. The development
of sales was generally positive during the third quarter as well, and
PartnerTech's business, in particular, developed better than expected. 
PartnerTech's customer accounts significantly increased Scanfil's turnover in
almost all customer sectors. In addition, operations expanded into a new
sector, Defence, Oil & Gas and Maritime. 

Turnover was divided between different customer groups as follows (including
PartnerTech as of 1 July 2015): 

EUR, million                Q1-Q3 2014  Q1-Q3 2015   change  % of turnover

FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT

The Group's turnover for January - September was EUR 234.5 (164.9) million. 
The breakdown of turnover by regional segment was as follows: Europe and USA
69% (60%), Asia 31% (40%). 
PartnerTech AB has been consolidated into Scanfil Group as of 1 July 2015.

The Group's operating profit for January-September was EUR 10.2 (12.9) million,
representing 4.3% (7.8%) of turnover. The operating profit includes a total of
EUR 4.2 million of non-recurring expenses, comprised of EUR 2.1 million of
entries related to the acquisition of PartnerTech AB and a write-down of EUR
2.1 million related to the Hungarian operations. The development of the
Hungarian business has fallen short of expectations, and the company's future
outlook has also been lowered. As a consequence, the company has recorded a
write-down of goodwill, based on impairment testing. Operating profit excluding
non-recurring items was EUR 14.4 million, representing 6.2% of turnover.
Non-recurring expenses for the previous year amounted to EUR 0.2 million. 

Earnings for the review period amounted to EUR 7.2 (9.8) million. Earnings per
share were EUR 0.12 (0.17) and return on investment was 10.3% (17.3%). 

Turnover for July-September amounted to EUR 135.8 (56.7) million and operating
profit was EUR 5.2 (5.2) million, or 3.9% (9.2%) of turnover. The operating
profit for the quarter includes a total of EUR 3.4 million of non-recurring
expenses, comprised of EUR 1.3 million of entries related to the acquisition of
PartnerTech AB and a write-down of EUR 2.1 million related to the Hungarian
operations. Operating profit excluding non-recurring items was EUR 8.6 million,
representing 6.4% of turnover. Earnings for the quarter amounted to EUR 2.8
(3.8) million. 

FINANCING AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURE

The Group's financial position has changed as a result of the acquisition of
PartnerTech AB, but it remains good. The consolidated balance sheet totalled
EUR 307.3 (139.5) million. Liabilities amounted to EUR 207.1 (48.6) million,
EUR 118.4 (33.5) million of which were non-interest-bearing and EUR 88.7 (15.1)
million interest-bearing. The equity ratio was 32.8% (65.2%) and gearing 63.9%
(-5.8%). The equity per share was EUR 1.74 (1.57). 

Liquid cash assets totalled EUR 24.7 (20.4) million.

Net cash flow from operating activities for the review period January-September
was EUR 7.4 (6.2) million. The change in net working capital during the period
amounted to EUR -7.2 (-6.3) million. More capital has been tied up in working
capital due to higher turnover. Cash flow from investments was EUR -49.0
million (-7.4) consisting mainly of PartnerTech AB acquisition. Cash flow from
financing was EUR 46.4 (-7.5) million, including loan for acquiring PartnerTech
AB, loan instalments and the use of a bank credit facility and payment of
dividends. 

Gross investments in fixed assets, excluding the acquisition of PartnerTech AB,
in January-September totaled EUR 3.6 (7.5) million, which is 1.5% (4.6%) of the
turnover. The investments were mainly acquisitions of machines and equipment.
The investments for the previous year include the acquisition cost of Schaltex
Systems GmbH shares, amounting to EUR 5.8 million. Depreciation totalled EUR
7.6 (3.3) million.

(1,544) in the company's units outside Finland. In all, 91% (87%) of the
Group's personnel were employed by subsidiaries outside Finland on 30 September
2015. 

FUTURE PROSPECTS

Scanfil plc's business has developed better than expected during the third
quarter. Especially growth of PartnerTech's sales has been strong and also
profitability has developed better than expected. Due to this favourable
development, Scanfil plc changed on 24 September 2015 its estimate of turnover
and operating profit in 2015, estimating that the turnover will be EUR 360 -
385 million and the operating profit before non-recurring items will amount to
EUR 17 - 21 million. 

Scanfil's previous estimate was that its turnover for 2015 will be EUR 350 -
365 million and operating profit before non-recurring items for 2015 was
estimated to be EUR 14 - 18 million. 

OPERATIONAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

A weakening of the global economy and a decrease in the international demand
for capital goods could have a negative effect on the development of the
business operations of Scanfil's customers and could subsequently reduce demand
in the contract manufacturing market.  In addition, Scanfil is exposed to risks
resulting from exchange rate fluctuations in its business operations. 

Scanfil's business operations have expanded in terms of the plant network,
customer base and geographical regions with the acquisition of PartnerTech.
However, the essential functions are the same as before. No new significant
risks have been identified in conjunction with the acquisition of PartnerTech,
and no essential changes have taken place in the risks related to Scanfil's
business during the year.  The company's risks and risk management are
described in greater detail on the company's website under Corporate Governance
and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. 

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The interim report has been prepared in accordance with the IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting standard, applying the following accounting policies with
the financial statements for 2014. The foreign exchange rates published by
Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB have been used in consolidating the Swedish
subgroup. 

All figures in the financial report have been rounded and consequently the sum
of the individual figures can deviate from the sum figure. The figures are
unaudited.

The company has a EUR 4.4 million loan in connection with which the company has 
 entered

and cash flows of instalments and interest payments into euros. The interest and
currency swap agreement fully hedges the instalments and interest payments      
 against

Owing to the nature of the sector, the company´s order book covers only a short 
 period of time and                                                             
does not give an accurate picture of future development.
