Events in 2010 - summary

In February Componenta decided to strengthen its common ”One Componenta” way of
operating with the goal of growing to become the leading cast component
supplier in Europe. The business operations were reorganized and the Group's
customer businesses were organized in segments, for which sales management
personnel were appointed and engineering and R&D resources allocated.
Componenta's business operations were divided into four operational areas and
corporate functions for developing business operations - supply chain
management, development of foundry and machine shop technology, purchasing and
internal purchases - support the operational areas and their management. The
Group's Corporate Executive Team was reorganized at the same time and Yrjö
Julin was appointed to the Corporate Executive Team with the new position of
Chief Operating Officer. An Extended Corporate Executive Team was also
established to develop and implement the Group's strategy. In June Pauliina
Rannikko was appointed to the Corporate Executive Team as SVP of Legal and Risk
Management. In September Componenta issued a subordinated capital loan and an
unsecured bond for a total of EUR 50.3 million. The subordinated capital loan
and the unsecured bond were offered to a limited group of selected investors.
The funds obtained through the issues were used to strengthen the company's
balance sheet and financial position and for general refinancing purposes. 

Componenta's Board of Directors approved subscriptions to the subordinated
capital loan 2010 with a total nominal value of EUR 23.4 million. Holders of
the company's 2006 subordinated capital loans had the right to use the assets
pertaining to the principal of the capital loans receivable from the company to
pay the subscription price for the loan units of the subordinated capital loan
2010. Altogether EUR 11.1 million of the subordinated capital loan 2006 and
convertible capital loan 2006 were used in payment for the subscription to the
subordinated capital loan 2010. In addition, Componenta's Board of Directors
approved subscriptions to the unsecured bond 2010 with a nominal value of EUR
26.9 million. 

Componenta's operational business units in Finland - the foundries and machine
shops - were merged in the last quarter of the year to form a single legal
company. The new company, Componenta Finland Oy, which is a 100% owned
subsidiary of the Group's parent company Componenta Corporation, started
operations on 1 January 2011. The change supports the operational management
model adopted by the Group in February 2010. The objective is to centralise the
sales support, finance, and wages and salaries functions to improve service and
achieve cost savings. 

Net sales and order book

The Group's net sales in 2010 rose 51% to EUR 451.6 (299.6) million. The value
of production in 2010 rose 63% to EUR 454.7 (278.5) million. The Group's
capacity utilisation rate during the year was 57% (38%). The order book at the
end of December rose 61% from the corresponding time in the previous year to
EUR 94.6 (58.8) million. The order book comprises confirmed orders for the
following two months. 

Net sales of the Turkey operations rose 76% from the previous year to EUR 204.8
(116.2) million. The order book at the end of December was 70% higher than in
the previous year and stood at EUR 47.8 (28.1) million. The order book in
Turkey was boosted in particular by encouraging developments in construction
and mining machinery industry and in the automotive industry. 

Net sales of the Finland operations rose 29% from the previous year to EUR
103.6 (80.4) million. The order book at the end of the year increased 33% from
the previous year to EUR 15.7 (11.8) million. Increased orders from the heavy
trucks industry and machine building industry were the main contributors to the
improvement in the Finnish order book. 

Net sales of the Holland operations increased 22% from the previous year to EUR
85.1 (69.5) million. The order book at the end of the year showed a 32%
increase from the previous year and stood at EUR 16.4 (12.5) million. Increased
orders from construction and mining machinery industry, from agricultural
machinery industry, from heavy trucks industry and from the machine building
industry contributed to the stronger order book in the Netherlands. 

Net sales for operations in Sweden rose 104% from the previous year to EUR 84.7
(41.5) million. The order book at the end of the financial period was 111%
higher than at the corresponding time in the previous year, standing at EUR
22.0 (10.5) million. A particular factor in the improvement in the order book
in Sweden was the increase in orders from the heavy trucks industry and the
machine building industry. 

Componenta's net sales in the financial year by customer business sector were
as follows: heavy trucks 26% (20%), construction and mining 21% (15%), machine
building 20% (28%), automotive 20% (20%), agriculture 11% (13%), wind power 2%
(2%) and other sales 1% (1%). 

Result

The Group's EBITDA was EUR 29.5 (-3.2) million. The EUR 32.7 million
improvement in EBITDA from the previous year was mainly due to higher
production volumes and the adaption measures taken earlier to adjust costs.
However, EBITDA was weakened by the rapid rise in iron raw material prices and
by the sharp rise in other raw materials which are not covered by material
surcharges, and exchange rate losses on sales and purchases, with a total
impact of EUR -8.7 million.

Balance sheet, financing and cash flow

In September 2010 Componenta Corporation issued a subordinated capital loan and

principal of the capital loans receivable from the company to pay the
subscription price for the loan units of the subordinated capital loan 2010.

During the financial year, long-term bilateral bank loans totalling EUR 33.3
million were drawn, to refinance short-term bank loans that matured during the
financial year. 

The Group's net interest-bearing debt, excluding the outstanding subordinated
capital loans and convertible capital loans of EUR 40.4 million, totalled EUR
189.4 (206.5) million at the end of the year. The company's net
interest-bearing debt as a proportion of shareholders' equity, including the

At the end of the financial year Componenta's liquidity position was good. Cash
in bank at the end of the financial year totalled EUR 11.0 million. Unused
committed credit facilities totalled EUR 64.5 million at the end of the
financial year. The Group also has a EUR 150 million commercial paper

Componenta's net cash flow from operations during the financial year was EUR
25.2 (14.2) million, and of this the change in net working capital was EUR 13.6
(37.5) million. Componenta makes more efficient use of capital with a programme

(161.7) million. Loans, commitments and contingent liabilities given by the
company to private persons classified as related parties on 31 December 2010
totalled EUR 0.3 (0.3) million. 

Investments

Componenta restricted the amount of investments in production facilities in
2010 due to the under-utilisation of capacity. Investments in production
facilities during the year totalled EUR 8.5 (15.5) million, of which financial
lease investments accounted for EUR 0.3 (4.4) million. The net cash flow from
investing activities was EUR -10.4 (-12.6) million,which includes the cash flow

flow from shares sold and purchased and from the sale of fixed assets. 

Research and development

At the end of 2010, 118 (90) people worked in Componenta's research and
development, which corresponds to 3% (2%) of the company's total personnel.
Componenta's research and development expenses in 2010 totalled EUR 1.8 (1.9)
million, the equivalent of 0.4% (0.6%) of the Group's total net sales. 

Environment

Componenta is committed to the continuous improvement and to reducing the
environmental impact of its production. The objectives of the Group's
environmental policy are to reduce consumption of energy and raw materials,
restrict particle and VOC emissions, reduce environmental noise from its
operations, increase the sorting of waste, and reduce the amount of waste that
cannot be re-used. 

One of the most significant environmental aspects for Componenta Group is the
use of energy. In 2010 the Group used 629 GWh (422 GWh) of energy. Most of the
energy used, 66% (65%), was electricity. The foundries consume more than 90% of
all the energy, since especially the melting processes at the foundries utilise
much energy. In 2010 energy consumption at Componenta's foundries in proportion
to output was 10% lower than in the previous year. 

Componenta will publish its 2010 corporate responsibility report during spring
2011. 

Personnel

The Group had on average 4,155 (3,798) employees during the financial year,
including 303 (114) leased employees. The number of Group personnel at the end
of the year was 4,414 (3,698), which includes 398 (84) leased employees. At the
end of the year, 52% (47%) of the personnel were in Turkey, 24% (28%) in
Finland, 16% (17%) in the Netherlands, and 8% (9%) in Sweden. 

Performance of operations

Componenta's reporting structure was changed on 1 February 2010 when the Group
organised its divisions into country-based operations. The figures for 2010
have been reported in accordance with the new structure, and all figures for
comparison for country-based operations for 2009 have been adjusted to bring
them in line with this reporting structure. 

Turkey operations

The operations in Turkey comprise the iron foundry and machine shop in
Orhangazi and the aluminium foundry and production unit for aluminium wheels in
Manisa. 

Net sales for the operations in Turkey rose 76% in the year to EUR 204.8
(116.2) million. Operating profit was EUR 15.2 million, corresponding to 7.4%
of net sales (EUR 2.2 million, 1.9%). The operating profit was boosted by the
extremely positive developments in volumes in the construction and mining
machinery and automotive industries. The operating profit was however weakened
by the rapid rise in the price of iron raw material prices, the prices of other
raw materials which are not covered by the material surcharges, and the
exchange rate losses, in total EUR -2.3 million. 

Fourth quarter net sales increased 67% to EUR 59.6 (35.6) million and operating
profit totalled EUR 4.3 million, corresponding to 7.3% of net sales (EUR 1.1
million, 3.0%). The fourth quarter operating profit was boosted positively by
iron raw material prices and by exchange rate gains, together totalling EUR 0.3
million. 

At the end of the financial year, the order book for the Turkey operations was
70% higher than in the previous year, at EUR 47.8 (28.1) million. 

Finland operations

The operations in Finland consist of the iron foundries in Iisalmi, Karkkila,
Pietarsaari and Pori and the machine shops in Lempäälä and Pietarsaari. The
operations also include the production unit for pistons in Pietarsaari. 

Net sales for the operations in Finland rose 29% in the year to EUR 103.6
(80.4) million. The operating profit was EUR -0.2 million, or -0.2 % of net
sales (EUR -3.9 million, -4.8%). The operating profit was boosted by the cuts
in costs implemented towards the end of the previous year and by the higher
production volumes, especially in the heavy trucks industry. The operating
profit was weakened however by altogether EUR -3.8 million due to the rapid
rise in iron raw material prices early in the year, and in the second half of
the year by the prices of other raw materials which are not covered by the
material surcharges in the second half of the year. 

Fourth quarter net sales increased 87% to EUR 30.6 (16.4) million and operating
profit was EUR 0.6 million, corresponding to 2.0% of net sales (EUR -1.7
million, -10.5%). The rapid rise in raw material prices had an impact of EUR
-0.9 million on the fourth quarter operating profit. 

At the end of the financial year, the order book for Finland operations was 33%
higher than in the previous year, at EUR 15.7 (11.8) million. 

Holland operations

The operations in the Netherlands comprise the iron foundries in Heerlen and
Weert, the machine shop operations in Weert and the pattern shop in Tegelen. 

Net sales for the Holland operations rose 22% to EUR 85.1 (69.5) million and
the operating profit was EUR -1.5 million, or -1.8 % of net sales (EUR -10.2
million, -14.7%). Factors contributing to the improvement in the operating
result were the adjustments in costs carried out earlier and the increase in
production volumes. The rise in iron raw material prices early in the year and
the prices of other raw materials which are not covered by the material
surcharges in the second half of the year had a combined negative effect of EUR
-2.4 million on the operating profit. 

Fourth quarter net sales rose 54% to EUR 22.1 (14.4) million and operating
profit was EUR -0.5 million, corresponding to -2.3% of net sales (EUR -1.5
million, -10.1%). The rapid rise in raw material prices weakened the fourth
quarter operating profit by EUR -0.5 million. 

At the end of the financial year, the order book for Holland operations was 32%
higher than in the previous year, at EUR 16.4 (12.5) million. 

Sweden operations

The operations in Sweden comprise the Främmestad machine shop and the Wirsbo
forge. 

Net sales for operations in Sweden increased 104% in the financial year to EUR
84.7 (41.5) million and operating profit was EUR 0.8 million, corresponding to
0.9 % of net sales (EUR -8.8 million, -21.3%). The operating profit for Sweden
operations improved from the previous year due to the cuts in costs carried out
earlier and the considerably higher volumes, especially in the heavy trucks
industry. The operating profit was weakened by the exceptional increases in
electricity prices during the first quarter. 

Fourth quarter net sales rose 109% to EUR 26.9 (12.9) million and operating
profit was EUR 1.6 million, corresponding to 5.8% of net sales (EUR -1.9
million, -14.8%). 

At the end of the financial year, the order book for Sweden operations was 111%
higher than in the previous year, at EUR 22.0 (10.5) million.

Other business comprises the sales and logistics company Componenta UK Ltd in
Great Britain, service and real estate companies in Finland, the Group's
administrative functions and associated company Kumsan A.S. in Turkey. Other
business recorded an operating profit of EUR -1.0 (4.6) million. 

Fourth quarter operating profit for Other Business totalled EUR -0.2 (2.1)
million.

Purchase and disposal of own shares

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on 10 March 2010 resolved, in accordance
with the proposal of the Board of Directors, to authorise the Board of
Directors to decide on the purchase of a maximum of 1,700,000 of the Company's
own shares, in one or several instalments, using the Company's unrestricted
shareholders' equity. The shares shall be purchased otherwise than in
proportion to the holdings of the shareholders through public trading arranged
by NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd at the market price prevailing at the moment of
purchase. The authorisation is valid for a period of 18 months from the date of
the decision of the AGM. The authorisation cancels the authorisation to resolve
on the purchase of own shares given to the Board of Directors by the AGM on 23
February 2009. 

The AGM on 26 February 2007 authorised the Board of Directors to decide to
issue shares and grant option rights and other special rights with an
entitlement to shares under the following terms and conditions: 

  --  Under the authorisation the Board of Directors may decide to issue shares
      and grant option rights and other special rights as defined in chapter 10,
      section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act, such that a maximum of 2,000,000
      shares are issued under the authorisation. The authorisation does not
      exclude the right of the Board of Directors to decide on a direct issue of
      shares.
  --  The authorisation is valid for a period of five years from the date of the
      decision of the AGM.

Under the above authorisation 12,100 Componenta Corporation shares were issued
to pay the bonus for the 2007 - 2008 earning periods in Componenta's 2007 -
2009 share-based incentive scheme. 

Share-based incentive scheme 2010 - 2012

The Board of Directors of Componenta Corporation resolved on 10 March 2010 on a
long-term bonus and incentive plan for key personnel. The target group for the
plan comprises key persons in the Group as decided by the Board of Directors.
At the end of the financial year the target group contained 45 people. 

The plan includes three earning periods, the calendar years 2010, 2011 and
2012. The Board of Directors decides on the earning criteria for each earning
period and on the targets for these. The earning criteria for the 2010 earning
period were Componenta Group's result after financial items and net cash flow
from operations. The amount of the bonus in the earning period is determined
after the end of the period by the extent to which the targets set for the
earning criteria have been achieved. 

Any bonuses will be paid in 2011, 2012 and 2013 as a combination of company
shares and cash. The part to be paid in cash is intended to cover the taxes and
tax-related costs arising from the bonus. If shares are paid in the incentive
scheme, the shares may not be conveyed, pledged or otherwise used during a
two-year restriction period. 

For the 2010 earnings period, the Board of Directors resolved to allocate
40,950 shares of which to the President and CEO 7,500 shares and to the rest of
the key personnel 33,450 shares altogether. The scheme's impact on the Group's
result before tax at the end of 2010 was EUR -0.1 million.

Risks and business uncertainties

The most significant risks for Componenta are risks related to the business
environment (competition and price risk, commodity and environmental risks),
operational risks (customer and supplier risks, productivity, production and
process risks, labour market disruptions, contract and product liability risks,
personnel risks, and data security risks) as well as financial risks (funding
and liquidity risk, currency, interest rate and credit risks). 

In order to manage the Group's business operations it is essential to secure
the availability of certain raw materials, such as recycled metal and pig iron,
and energy, at competitive prices. The cost risk relating to raw materials is
mainly managed with price agreements, and under these agreements the prices of
products are adjusted in line with the changes in raw material prices.
Increases in prices for raw materials may tie up more funds in working capital
than estimated. 

The financial risks related to Componenta's business operations are managed in
accordance with the treasury policy approved by the Board of Directors. The
objective is to protect the Group against unfavourable changes in the financial
markets and to secure the Group's financial performance and financial position. 

More information related to Componenta's risks and risk management is given in
the 2010 annual report and on the company's website at www.componenta.com. 

Events after end of period

Componenta decided to expand its Corporate Executive Team (CET) in January by
appointing Olli Karhunen (SVP of Operations Finland), Patrick Steensels (SVP of
Operations Holland) and Michael Sjöberg (SVP of Operations Sweden) to CET. 

In January, Componenta decided to begin personnel negotiations, as laid down in
the Act on Co-operation within Undertakings, at Pietarsaari on 25 January 2011.
Componenta is planning to terminate machining operations in Pietarsaari during
the first half of the year and to transfer some of the machining work to
Främmestad in Sweden and to Orhangazi in Turkey. If all earlier mentioned acts
take place, it will mean a reduction of about 120 employees both in foundry and
machining operations in Pietarsaari. One-time costs are expected to be EUR 3.0
million and will be incurred during the first quarter. In addition, investment
and product transfer costs are estimated to be at some EUR 1.0 million, and
these will be incurred during 2011. 

Dividend proposal

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting to be held on 28
February 2011 that, in accordance with the Group's current dividend policy, no
dividend shall be paid for the 1 January - 31 December 2010 financial period.
On 31 December 2010 the parent company had distributable equity of EUR 84.4
million. 

Market outlook

The demand outlook in all the Group's customer sectors is good at the beginning
of 2011. 

Demand in the heavy trucks sector is expected to continue at good level, in
particular because of positive market development in Europe. 

Demand for construction and mining machinery is expected to continue to develop
favourably during 2011, mainly because of the higher mining material prices and
the recovery in the economy. 

Demand for agricultural machinery is estimated to rise from the previous year
as a result of higher food prices and development in demand in Europe and North
America. 

Due to growing exports by Turkey's automotive industry and encouraging
development in demand for aluminium alloy wheels, the demand in the automotive
industry is estimated to stay at good level in 2011. 

Demand in the wind power sector is expected to remain at a low level in Europe.

Demand in the machine building industry is expected to continue to pick up
gradually. 

Prospects for Componenta

Componenta's prospects for 2011 are based on general external economic
indicators, delivery forecasts given by customers, and on Componenta's order
intake and order book. 

Componenta's order book at the end of the financial year was 61 % higher than
at the end of the previous year. In 2011 the Group's net sales are expected to
rise clearly and the result after financial items before one time items to be
positive. Net cash flow from operations is expected to remain positive and
changes in working capital should be moderate, mainly due to the sale of trade
receivables.Investments in production facilities in 2011 are expected to be
some EUR 15 million. 

The continuing rise in raw material prices at the beginning of 2011 will affect
the result in the beginning of the year. 

Financial statements review tables

Componenta's 2010 financial statements review has been prepared in accordance
with international financial reporting standards (IFRS). In addition, it has
applied the revised standards IFRS 3 and IAS 27 as from 1 January 2010.
Applying the revised standards has not affected the Group's reported result or
its financial position. The financial statements review tables have been
prepared in accordance with IAS 34 accounting principles. This financial
statements review is unaudited.
