This represents an operating margin of 8.1% (7.9%). Price increases in local currencies and a favourable product mix increased operating profit by EUR 239 million. Paper and board production was curtailed by 6% (8%) and sawnwood production by 3% (5%) of capacity. The costs of pulpwood, chemicals, RCP, pulp and sawlogs were higher than a year ago, but productivity improvements and cost savings partly compensated for the cost increases. The overall net impact of the increase in variable costs in local currencies was a negative EUR 128 million. Exchange rates had negative impacts on sales and on costs totalling EUR 48 million, after hedges. Decreased volumes had a negative impact on operating profit of EUR 32 million mainly due to the deteriorated pulp balance and maintenance. The share of the operational results of equity accounted investments amounted to EUR 11 (EUR 11) million, with the largest contributions from Tornator and Bergvik Skog. The Group recorded a net negative EUR 32 million of non-recurring items at operating profit level in the second quarter of 2011 due to continued restructuring and efficiency improvement plans as announced on 12 July 2011. Net financial items were EUR -35 (EUR -23) million. Net interest expenses increased from EUR 24 million to EUR 28 million. Net foreign exchange losses amounted to EUR 1 (gain EUR 6) million and the net loss from other financial items totalled EUR 6 (EUR 5) million. Group capital employed was EUR 8 839 million on 30 June 2011, a net increase of EUR 636 million mainly due to an increase of EUR 330 million in working capital primarily to optimise wood costs and secure short-term wood availability, EUR 240 million of impairment reversal in the fourth quarter of 2010 and an increase of EUR 180 million in the PVO valuation. The increase was partly offset by EUR 220 million due to low capital expenditure compared with depreciation. January-June 2011 Results (compared with January-June 2010) Sales increased by EUR 556 million year-on-year. Operating profit excluding non-recurring items and fair valuations increased by EUR 144 million or 43%. Significantly higher sales prices in local currencies and a favourable product mix more than compensated for higher variable costs. Q2/2011 Results (compared with Q1/2011) Sales were up by 3% or EUR 90 million on the previous quarter. Operating profit excluding non-recurring items and fair valuations was EUR 20 million lower than in the previous quarter at EUR 228 million. The overall negative impact of maintenance was EUR 37 million greater than in the previous quarter. Higher sales prices and volumes were offset by higher variable costs. Fixed costs excluding maintenance stoppages remained favourable.

Cash flow after investing activities was EUR 122 (EUR 106) million. Interest-bearing net liabilities of the Group increased by EUR 160 million to EUR 2 561 million due to dividend payment. Total unutilised committed credit facilities remained unchanged at EUR 700 million, and cash and cash equivalents net of overdrafts remained strong at EUR 996 million, which is EUR 112 million less than at the end of the previous quarter. In addition, Stora Enso has access to various long-term sources of funding up to EUR 600 million. The debt/equity ratio at 30 June 2011 was 0.41 (0.38) due to dividend payment. On 4 April 2011 Stora Enso announced that it had signed a loan facility agreement with the International Finance Corporation (IFC) to extend the maturity of USD 128 million in syndicated loans under its existing facility with IFC. The extension prolongs the maturity by three years to June 2014.

The capital expenditure forecast for the Group for the full year 2011 has changed from the earlier estimate of EUR 550 million to approximately EUR 500 million with no impact on strategic project timings. Annual depreciation in 2011 will be about EUR 570 million. The equity injection into Montes del Plata, a joint venture in Uruguay, will be approximately EUR 120 million. Close to 80% of capital expenditure including equity injections is allocated for the strategic high-return growth areas in 2011. The main projects during the first half of 2011 were power plants. Near-term Outlook Demand (compared with Q3/2010) Demand is forecast to be stable for consumer board, industrial packaging, newsprint and coated magazine paper, and weaker for uncoated magazine paper and fine paper. Demand for wood products is predicted to be slightly weaker, mainly due to increased customer inventories. As before, production will be curtailed if necessary in order to optimise earnings and working capital. Prices (compared with Q2/2011) Consumer board prices are forecast to be stable, however the product and geographical mix is expected to decrease cartonboard average prices. Industrial packaging prices are forecast to be stable. Newsprint prices in Europe are anticipated to be slightly higher, and the negotiations regarding European-wide price increases are currently ongoing. Magazine paper prices in Europe are predicted to be slightly higher and fine paper prices stable with an unfavourable geographical and product mix. The fine paper price increases announced will not have a material impact during the third quarter as they are expected to take effect only in September. Prices for wood products are forecast to be stable. In the third quarter of 2011, as in the second quarter, foreign exchange rates are expected to have a negative impact on the results. The Group expects its cost inflation excluding internal actions to remain unchanged at approximately 4% for the full year 2011. Actions continue to mitigate cost inflation. There is increasing uncertainty in the European economy. Operating profit excluding NRI and fair valuations in the third quarter of 2011 is forecast to be in approximately the same range as the second quarter of 2011. Segments Q2/11 compared with Q2/10 Consumer Board Consumer Board manufactures all major types of consumer board, such as liquid packaging board, food service board, graphical board and cartonboard for packaging food, cigarettes, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and luxury products.

Consumer board sales were EUR 662 million, up 13% on the second quarter of 2010. Operating profit was EUR 85 million, up EUR 8 million on the second quarter of 2010. Higher sales prices and somewhat higher volumes compensated for higher chemical and fibre costs. The maintenance stoppage at Enocell Pulp Mill reduced pulp deliveries in the second quarter of 2011.

Energy sensitivity analysis for 2011: the direct effect on 2011 operating profit of a 10% increase in electricity, oil and other fossil fuel market prices would be about negative EUR 26 million annual impact, after the effect of hedges. Wood sensitivity analysis for 2011: the direct effect on 2011 operating profit of a 10% increase in wood prices would be about negative EUR 232 million annual impact. Pulp sensitivity analysis for 2011: the direct effect on 2011 operating profit of a 10% increase in yearly average pulp prices would be about positive EUR 54 million annual impact. A decrease of energy, wood or pulp prices would have the opposite impact. Foreign exchange rates sensitivity analysis for the next twelve months: the direct effect on operating profit of a 10% strengthening in the value of the US dollar, Swedish krona and British pound against the euro would be positive EUR 107 million, negative EUR 82 million and positive EUR 54 million annual impact, respectively. Weakening of the currencies would have the opposite impact. These numbers are before the effect of hedges and assuming no changes occur other than a single currency exchange rate movement. Veracel On 11 July 2008 Stora Enso announced that a federal judge in Brazil had issued a decision claiming that the permits issued by the State of Bahia for the operations of Stora Enso's equity accounted investment Veracel were not valid. The judge also ordered Veracel to take certain actions, including reforestation with native trees on part of Veracel's plantations and a possible BRL 20 million (EUR 9 million) fine. Veracel disputes the decision and has filed an appeal against it. Veracel operates in full compliance with all Brazilian laws and has obtained all the necessary environmental and operating licences for its industrial and forestry activities from the competent authorities. In November 2008 a Federal Court suspended the effects of the decision. Veracel has not recorded any provision for the reforestation or the possible fine. On 30 September 2009 a judge in the State of Bahia issued an interim decision ordering the State Government of Bahia not to grant Veracel further plantation licences in the municipality of Eunápolis in response to claims by a state prosecutor that Veracel's plantations exceeded the legal limits, which Veracel disputes. Veracel's position is supported by documentation issued by the State environmental authority. Class Action Lawsuits in USA In the context of magazine paper sales in the USA in 2002 and 2003, Stora Enso was sued in a number of class action (and other civil) lawsuits filed in the USA by various magazine paper purchasers that claimed damages for alleged antitrust violations. On 14 December 2010 a US federal court granted a motion for summary judgement that Stora Enso had filed seeking dismissal of the direct purchaser class action claims. The ruling, which the plaintiffs have appealed, means that the court has ruled in favour of Stora Enso and found the direct purchaser class action claims to be without legal foundation. Further, most of the indirect purchaser actions have been dismissed by a consent judgement, subject, however, to being reinstated if the plaintiffs' appeal in the direct cases is successful. The ruling, if it stands on appeal, will also provide a strong legal basis for final dismissal of all remaining civil cases. No provisions have been made in Stora Enso's accounts for these lawsuits. Legal Proceeding in Finland On 3 December 2009 the Finnish Market Court fined Stora Enso for competition law infringements in the market for roundwood in Finland from 1997 to 2004. Stora Enso did not appeal against the ruling. On 31 March 2011 Metsähallitus of Finland initiated legal proceedings against Stora Enso, UPM and Metsäliitto claiming compensation for damages allegedly suffered due to the competition law infringements amounting altogether to EUR 283 million. Stora Enso denies that Metsähallitus suffered any damages whatsoever and will forcefully defend itself. No provisions have been made in Stora Enso's accounts for this lawsuit. Share Capital During the quarter 762 A shares were converted into R shares. The shares were recorded in the Finnish trade register on 16 May 2011. On 30 June 2011 Stora Enso had 177 149 022 A shares and 612 389 477 R shares in issue of which the Company held no A shares and 918 512 R shares with a nominal value of EUR 1.6 million. The holding represents 0.12% of the Company's share capital and 0.04% of the voting rights. Changes in shareholdings Norges Bank was lending out certain Stora Enso shares and therefore the number of shares in Stora Enso Oyj held by Norges Bank (The Central Bank of Norway) was temporarily less than 5% of the paid-up share capital and the number of shares in Stora Enso Oyj in April and May 2011.

Helsinki, 21 July 2011 Stora Enso Oyj Board of Directors Financials Basis of Preparation Except as described below, this unaudited interim financial report has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in International Accounting Standard 34 on Interim Financial Reporting and in the Group's Annual Report for 2010. The following amendments to standards and interpretations were adopted from 1 January 2011 but had no impact on the Group financial statements: -- IAS 24 Related Party Disclosure - Revised definition of related parties -- IFRIC 19 Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments requires the extinguishment of a financial liability by the issue of equity instruments to be measured at fair value with the difference between the fair value of the instrument issued and the carrying value of the liability extinguished being recognised in profit or loss. -- Amendments to IFRS - Through the annual improvements process, the minor and non-urgent changes are collected into one ensemble and implemented at the beginning of the year. In addition, the IASB has published a few other small amendments which have also been implemented at the beginning of the year. These changes and amendments effective from 1 January 2011 relate to nine standards and interpretations. They did not have a significant effect on the Group financial statements.
