REGULATED INFORMATION
Lassila & Tikanoja - Quarterly report
LASSILA & TIKANOJA PLC INTERIM REPORT 1 JANUARY - 30 JUNE 2007
- Net sales for the second quarter EUR 138.8 million, growth 28.0%; operating profit EUR 12.0 million, growth 8.9%; earnings per share EUR 0.20 (EUR 0.20) - Net sales for January-June EUR 267.9 million, growth 28.2%; operating profit EUR 21.2 million, growth 5.9%; earnings per share EUR 0.35 (EUR 0.36) - Full-year net sales are estimated to increase by clearly more than 20% but earnings per share are estimated to decline. GROUP NET SALES AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE Second quarter Lassila & Tikanoja's net sales for the second quarter stood at EUR 138.8 million (EUR 108.4 million). The operating profit was EUR 12.0 million (EUR 11.1 million), which is 8.7% (10.2%) of net sales. The net sales increased by 28.0%, 16.9 percentage points of which came from corporate acquisitions. Strong organic growth continued thanks to successful new sales. The demand for Industrial Services continued to be particularly strong. The operating profit was burdened by losses in the joint venture Salvor Oy (EUR 1.1 million), as well as imputed changes in the fair values of oil derivatives purchased for hedging the oil re-refinery business to be started in 2008 (EUR -0.5 million). January-June The six-month net sales increased by 28.2% and stood at EUR 267.9 million (EUR 209.0 million), 17.4 percentage points of this growth coming from corporate acquisitions. Earnings per share were EUR 0.35 (EUR 0.36). Organic growth exceeded market growth, and the company's market position strengthened. This was primarily attributable to well-functioning product development, marketing and sales operations, as well as strong industrial demand. Several new service products were introduced to the market. The operating profit was burdened by losses in the joint venture Salvor Oy (EUR 1.3 million), as well as imputed changes in the fair values of oil derivatives (EUR -1.7 million). The above items have a combined negative effect of EUR 0.07 on earnings per share for January-June.

The operating profit was EUR 8.1 million (EUR 7.8 million). Organic growth continued to improve thanks to strong new sales. During the period, new substantial service contracts were signed with parties including producers' organisations and large-scale customers. The earnings from waste management improved. The earnings from recycling services were burdened by unprofitable landfill construction business within the joint venture Salvor and a loss on disposal of this business. The final amount of the loss will be determined by the end of the year when all contracts in progress are completed. A contract of lease was signed with the City of Kerava, making it possible to start the planning for a new plant. The company already has legally valid environmental permits for expanding the operations. L&T Biowatti's net sales and earnings developed as planned. Waste management operations in the Moscow region expanded to a new town in May with the gradual transfer of waste management in the town of Sergiev Posad to L&T's responsibility. Environmental products' financial performance improved as a result of strong growth in net sales. January-June Environmental Services' net sales for January-June amounted to EUR 138.0 million (EUR 98.8 million), an increase of 39.7%. The operating profit was EUR 16.7 million (EUR 15.1 million). Strong organic growth continued, and the number of municipal transport contracts increased. The volume of recycling services increased thanks to new sales and added plant capacity. Losses in the joint venture Salvor Oy increased substantially due to financial failures in landfill construction and closedown contracts. The company divested its unprofitable landfill construction business and has also initiated other corrective measures. The earnings of environmental products were on a par with the comparison period. An extension to capacity was introduced at the Tampere recycling plant. A new recycling plant at Joensuu will be completed in August, followed by extensions to the Turku and Valkeakoski plants later this year. The recycling plant in Dubna, Russia is expected to be completed in the beginning of next year. The situation with environmental permits has developed favourably even though appeals against environmental permits are slowing down plant and processing area projects to some extent. The planning of new recycling plants will continue. The acquisition of a majority holding in Biowatti Oy was completed on 1 February 2007. L&T Biowatti is the leading bioenergy company utilising renewable energy sources in Finland. It engages in the procurement, processing, marketing and delivery of wood-based fuels for customers. L&T Biowatti's net sales and earnings developed almost as planned. Property and Office Support Services Second quarter The net sales of Property and Office Support Services (property maintenance and cleaning services) totalled EUR 48.7 million (EUR 41.2 million), an increase of 18.0%. The operating profit was EUR 1.7 million (EUR 1.5 million). Organic growth was fairly good even though price competition was intense. The performance of both product lines improved in Finland even though the earnings of property maintenance were burdened by an unprofitable electrical installation contract. Operations abroad remained unprofitable as expected. Kiinteistöhuolto Jauhiainen Oy and Siivouspalvelu Ta-Bu Oy were acquired in the beginning of June. Kiinteistöhuolto Jauhiainen Oy is a property maintenance company operating in the Helsinki region that posted net sales of EUR 6.5 million in 2006. It employs 65 people. Siivouspalvelu Ta-Bu Oy operates in the Helsinki and Varkaus regions. Its net sales amounted to EUR 5.3 million in 2006, and it employs around 200 people. January-June The January-June net sales of Property and Office Support Services totalled EUR 97.4 million (EUR 82.4 million), an increase of 18.2%. The operating profit was EUR 2.8 million (EUR 2.8 million). Organic growth continued in Finland, with net sales growing particularly in maintenance of technical systems. Mild weather early in the year did not have much of an improving effect on performance, because snow ploughing is mostly covered by fixed-price advance agreements with subcontractors. There were no snow transports that would have provided for additional invoicing. A large number of new contracts started in cleaning services, and the costs of initiation hampered profitability. Operations in Russia and Latvia have been reorganised. Sales performance in Latvia has been good and an earnings improvement is expected. Three acquisitions have been carried out in Sweden within one year, generating aggregate net sales of approximately EUR 30 million in 2007. The current focus in Sweden is on integrating these companies into one and building a sales organisation. The division's operations abroad were running at a loss. Industrial Services Second quarter The net sales of Industrial Services (hazardous waste management, industrial cleaning, damage repair services and wastewater services) amounted to EUR 19.1 million (EUR 16.5 million), an increase of 15.7%. The operating profit was EUR 2.6 million (EUR 2.3 million). The division's operating profit was burdened by calculated changes in the fair values of oil derivatives amounting to EUR 0.5 million. Strong organic growth continued in the net sales of all product lines. Growth was facilitated by a high industrial utilisation rate, expanded service network and new customer contracts based on strategic partnership that evens out fluctuation in demand. The profitability of all product lines improved through better productivity and control over fixed costs. The construction of a waste oil re-refinery for the joint venture L&T Recoil Oy started. January-June The January-June net sales of Industrial Services amounted to EUR 34.9 million (EUR 29.6 million), an increase of 17.6%. The operating profit was EUR 2.7 million (EUR 3.1 million). The net sales of all product lines increased, with the strongest growth in damage repair services and wastewater services. Thanks to a mild winter, demand in all product lines was good for the time of the year. Industrial demand did not even out but continued to be strong also in the second quarter. The division's market position has strengthened, which is reflected in factors such as an increase in the number of major customer contracts. The earnings improvement in day-to-day operations was affected by good demand as well as improved productivity. The damage repair service network expanded to two new locations. A new alternative liquid fuel (ALF) was introduced to the market to replace waste oil that is routed to re-refining. The operating profit was burdened by changes in the fair values of L&T Recoil's oil derivatives amounting to EUR 1.7 million. Oil derivatives are used to hedge the profitability of the upcoming re-refinery in situations where the market price of oil falls substantially. Changes in the fair value of oil derivatives have a quarterly earnings effect. The re-refinery is estimated to be completed in the spring of 2008. FINANCING At the end of the period, interest-bearing liabilities amounted to EUR 25.4 million more than a year earlier. Net interest-bearing liabilities, totalling EUR 104.9 million, increased by EUR 19.3 million from the comparison period and by EUR 52.5 million from the beginning of the year. Net finance costs exceeded those for the comparison period by EUR 0.5 million in the second quarter, and by EUR 1.2 million in January-June. In the second quarter, interest expenses increased by EUR 0.5 million, and in January-June by EUR 0.9 million, as a result of the growth in interest-bearing liabilities and a rise in the interest rate level. No changes in the fair values of interest rate swaps were recognised in the second quarter, while an income of EUR 0.1 was recognised in finance income in the comparison period. No changes in the fair values of interest rate swaps were recognised in January-June either, while an income of EUR 0.5 was recognised in finance income in the comparison period. Net finance costs were 0.7% (0.3%) of net sales and 8.4% (3.0%) of operating profit. A total of EUR 0.2 million arising from the changes in the fair value of an interest rate swap to which hedge accounting under IAS 39 is applied, was recognised in equity in January-June. The equity ratio was 42.2% (46.3%)and the gearing rate 61.2 (55.4). In January-June, cash flows from operating activities amounted to EUR 24.7 million (EUR 24.2 million), and EUR 5.8 million were tied up in the working capital (EUR 7.4 million). CAPITAL EXPENDITURE Capital expenditure totalled EUR 64.7 million (EUR 23.8 million). Approximately EUR 47.3 million were spent on company acquisitions. The combined annual net sales of the acquired companies totalled EUR 87.3 million. In addition, production plants were built and machinery and equipment were replaced. In early June, Kiinteistöhuolto Jauhiainen Oy and Siivouspalvelu Ta-Bu Oy were acquired. Kiinteistöhuolto Jauhiainen Oy specialises in property maintenance services in the Helsinki region, and its net sales for the year 2006 amounted to EUR 6.5 million. It employs 65 people. Siivouspalvelu Ta-Bu Oy is a cleaning services company operating both in the Helsinki region and in Varkaus in Central Finland. Its net sales for the year 2006 amounted to EUR 5.3 million, and it employs some 200 people. The following acquisitions were made in the first quarter: In December 2006 an agreement was signed on the acquisition of the majority (70%) of the shares of Biowatti Oy from the acting management of the company for Environmental Services. The acquisition became effective on 1 February 2007 after the approval of the competition authority. Biowatti is the leading Finnish bio energy supplier utilising renewable energy sources, operating in the procurement, processing, marketing and delivery of wood-based fuels. The main products are by-products of forest and wood processing industries and logging chips. The net sales of Biowatti for the year 2006 amounted to EUR 64.2 million. Bio fuel sales account for two thirds and industrial raw materials sales for one third of the net sales. A Swedish cleaning services company Skånsk Allservice AB together with subsidiaries Hygienutveckling AB and Hygienutvickling A/S operating in Norway were acquired in January for Property and Office Support Services. The consolidated net sales of the group totalled EUR 10.8 million in 2006, most of which came from hygiene services for the food industry. Kiinteistöhuolto Pentti Nissinen Oy was acquired for property maintenance services. The remaining portion of the shares of Suomen Keräystuote Oy was purchased for recycling services within Environmental Services. Lassila & Tikanoja held already 94.5% of Suomen Keräystuote shares. PERSONNEL In January - June, the average number of employees converted into full-time equivalents was 7,398 (6,698). At the end of the period, the total number of full-time and part-time employees was 9,486 (8,542). Of them 2,274 (1,490)people worked outside Finland.

The Annual General Meeting confirmed the number of the members of the Board of Directors five (5). The following Board members were re-elected to the Board until the end of the following AGM: Lasse Kurkilahti, Juhani Lassila, Juhani Maijala and Soili Suonoja. Eero Hautaniemi was elected as a new member for the same term.

The Annual General Meeting approved the Board of Directors' proposal to amend the Articles of Association in order to align them with the new Finnish Companies Act. The provisions on minimum and maximum share capital as well as on minimum and maximum number of shares were also removed. At its organising meeting following the Annual General Meeting, the Board of Directors re-elected Juhani Maijala as Chairman of the Board and Juhani Lassila as Vice Chairman. SUMMARY OF STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASES PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 7, CHAPTER 2 OF THE SECURITIES MARKETS ACT In a release disclosed on 23 July 2007, the company announced that the full-year financial result is estimated to be lower than in the previous year, though the operative result for the final half of the year is expected to remain on the same level as in the previous year. Previously the company estimated that the full-year financial performance will improve. Full-year net sales are still estimated to increase by clearly more than 20%. NEAR-TERM UNCERTAINTIES The most substantial near-term uncertainty factor is the possibility that the performance of foreign units within Property and Office Support Services may not improve on the planned schedule. The slow pace of licensing procedures may cause delays in the implementation of planned recycling plant investments in Finland as well as Russia. Changes in the fair values of oil derivatives associated with L&T Recoil's business depend on the development of world market prices for oil, and may have a substantial effect on the operating profit of Industrial Services. Fluctuations in the price of carbon dioxide emission allowances have a substantial effect on the demand for L&T Biowatti's wood-based fuels; however, there is not much room for further decreases in the price in 2007. The final amount of the loss on the disposal of the joint venture Salvor's landfill construction business will be determined by the end of the year as contracts in progress are completed. PROSPECTS FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR 2007 The prospects for Lassila & Tikanoja's markets remain mostly good. The demand for Environmental Services in Finland will remain strong thanks to closures of old landfills by the end of November and amendments to waste legislation. Increasing plant capacity and a versatile service offering are expected to improve L&T's market position. The market outlook for Property and Office Support Services in Finland is reasonable as outsourcing continues. The competitive situation is quite challenging, however, and margins will remain tight. The full-year result for cleaning operations abroad will be in the red but the loss is expected to be smaller than a year earlier. The market outlook for Industrial Services is quite positive. Strong demand seems to continue, and L&T's position in the market is further strengthening. The price of emission allowances (EUR per tonne of carbon dioxide) will substantially affect the pricing of renewable energy sources and thus the demand for them. The price level for the new emissions trading period starting as of the beginning of 2008 exceeds clearly the price level for the current period. This is expected to improve the competitive ability of renewable energy sources and lead to a normalisation of purchasing volumes in the beginning of 2008. The Finnish government programme has brought the increased utilisation of forest processed chips into focus as the aim is to increase the proportion of renewable energy sources. During the current year, L&T Biowatti will strengthen the procurement of raw materials, increase stocks, improve its delivery capacity and thus prepare for increased demand in 2008. The Joensuu recycling plant and the extensions to capacity at the Turku and Valkeakoski plants will be completed during the latter half of the year. The plant at Dubna in Russia will be completed in early 2008. The planning of new plants will continue. Due to completed corporate acquisitions and other investment decisions made, the full-year capital expenditure will exceed the previous year's level. Organic growth is expected to continue at a healthy level. Full-year net sales are estimated to increase by clearly more than 20% but earnings per share are estimated to decline. The result of operations in the latter half of the year is estimated to remain at the previous year's level. The operating profit for the final half of the previous year was, however, boosted by non-recurring gains on disposals and imputed changes in the fair values of oil derivatives, totalling EUR 2.9 million. CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1 JANUARY - 30 JUNE 2007 ACCOUNTING POLICIES This interim financial report is in compliance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting Standard. The same accounting policies as in the annual financial statements of 31 December 2006 have been applied. These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the IFRS standards and interpretations that were effective on 31 March 2007. The new IFRIC interpretations (7-10) valid as of 1 January 2007 did not affect the consolidated financial statements. IFRS 7 (effective as of 1 January 2007) does not affect these interim financial statements, because they are condensed. Income tax expense is based on the estimated average annual income tax rate, which would be applicable to expected total annual earnings. The consolidated financial statements do not include the 1 to 30 June income statements of Kiinteistöhuolto Jauhiainen Oy and Siivouspalvelu Ta-Bu Oy acquired on 1 June 2007. Their preliminary acquisition prices have been recognised in the consolidated goodwill. Their interim accounts as of the date of acquisition will only be completed after the consolidated interim accounts of 30 June 2007. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS require the management to make such estimates and assumptions that affect the carrying amounts at the balance sheet date for the assets and liabilities and the amounts of revenues and expenses. Judgements are also made in applying the accounting policies. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions. The interim financial statements have not been audited.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS In business combinations, all property, plant and equipment acquired is measured at fair value on the basis of the market prices of similar assets, taking into account the age of the assets, wear and tear and similar factors. Tangible assets will be depreciated over their useful life according to the management's estimate, taking into account the depreciation principles observed within the Group. Intangible assets arising from business combinations are recognised separately from goodwill at fair value at the time of acquisition if the fair value of the asset can be determined reliably. In connection with acquired business operations, the Group mostly has acquired agreements on prohibition of competition and customer relationships. The fair value of customer agreements and customer relationships associated with them has been determined on the basis of estimated duration of customer relationships and discounted net cash flows arising from current customer relationships. The value of agreements on prohibition of competition has been calculated in a similar manner through cash flows over the duration of the agreement. Other intangible assets will be amortised over their useful life according to agreement or the management's estimate. In addition to the skills of the personnel of the acquired businesses, goodwill arising from business combinations carried out in 2007, comprises other intangible items that cannot be identified separately in accordance with IAS 38. These unidentified items include the potential for gaining new customers vested in the acquired businesses and the opportunities for developing new products and services, as well as the regionally strong position of an acquired business. These items do not fulfil the IAS 38 identification criteria in any way. The items cannot be separated from each other, they are not based on any agreement or legal right and their value cannot be determined reliably. All business combinations also create synergy benefits that consist primarily of savings in fixed production costs. Changes in goodwill arising from acquisitions/acquisition costs may arise on the basis of terms and conditions related to the purchase price in the deeds of sale. In many acquisitions a small portion of the acquisition price is contingent on future events (less than 12 months). Acquisition price adjustments, including also attorney's and consultants' fees attributable to a business combination, are recognised in goodwill within 12 months from the acquisition date. Such adjustments are still probable for acquisitions made in 2006. Except these portions and the purchase of the minority holding of Biowatti described below, the allocation calculations are final. The consolidated net sales for the period 1 January to 30 June 2007 would have been EUR 275 million and the consolidated profit for the period EUR 14.1 million if all the acquisitions had been made on 1 January. The realised net sales of the acquired businesses have been added to the consolidated net sales, and their realised profits and losses have been added to the consolidated profit in accordance with interim accounts at the time of acquisition. However, the net sales and profits of Kiinteistöhuolto Jauhiainen Oy and Siivouspalvelu Ta-Bu Oy acquired on 1 June 2007 are not included in the consolidated net sales and and profit. Profit for the period is stated less the current amortisation on intangible assets and depreciation on property, plant and equipment. Synergy benefits have not been accounted for. The preliminary acquisition prices for Kiinteistöhuolto Jauhiainen Oy and Siivouspalvelu Ta-Bu Oy have been recognised in the consolidated goodwill, because intangible assets cannot be allocated without the value of the equity at the acquisition date. The final acquisition prices will be determined on the basis of the equities at the acquisition date. The estimated acquisition price for Kiinteistöhuolto Jauhiainen Oy amounts to EUR 4.6 million and for Siivouspalvelu Ta-Bu Oy to EUR 2.4 million.

L&T also made a commitment to redeem the remaining thirty percent of the shares by the end of the year 2011. The acquisition price for the seventy percent portion was EUR 30.9 million, and it was paid in cash. No interest-bearing liabilities were transferred in the acquisition. The acquisition became effective on 1 February 2007 after the approval of the competition authority. L&T Biowatti became a cash-generating unit within the Environmental Services division. In the consolidated financial statements the whole acquisition price (100%) was recognised as acquisition cost. No minority interest was separated from the profit or equity, but the estimated purchase price of the remaining 30 percent, discounted to the value at the acquisition date (approximately EUR 5,806 thousand), was recognised as interest-bearing non-current liability. The final price of the 30 percent portion will be determined based on the future earnings of L&T Biowatti. The estimate is assessed annually as of 31 December, or whenever any indication exists. If the estimate needs to be revised, the cost of the combination will be adjusted accordingly and the amounts of goodwill and interest-bearing liabilities will be changed. All property, plant and equipment acquired was measured and their values were found to correspond to the fair values based on the market prices of similar assets, taking into account the age of the assets, wear and tear and similar factors. The property, plant and equipment of Biowatti were already recognised at fair value due to a former company arrangement. The value of supply contracts recognised in Other intangible assets was determined on the basis of estimated duration of supplier relationships and discounted net cash flows arising from current relationships. Intangible assets will be amortised over their useful life according to agreement or the management's estimate. The net sales of L&T Biowatti for 1 February to 30 June 2007 amounted to EUR 30,314 thousand, and profit for the period EUR 1,531 thousand.

The remaining portion (5.5%) of the shares of Suomen Keräystuote Oy was purchased for recycling services within Environmental Services. Lassila & Tikanoja held already 94.5% of Suomen Keräystuote shares. The figures for these acquired businesses are stated in aggregate, because none of them is of material importance. Fair values have been determined as of the time the acquisition was realised. No business operations have been divested as a consequence of any acquisition. All acquisitions have been paid for in cash. Individual purchase prices have not been itemised because none of them is of material importance when considered separately. All share acquisitions have resulted in a holding of 100% of voting power. The aggregate net sales of the acquired companies totalled EUR 11.3 million. The largest acquired company by annual net sales was Skånsk All Service group (EUR 10.8 million). It is impracticable to itemise the effects of the acquired businesses on the consolidated net sales and profit for the period, because L&T integrates its acquisitions into the current business operations as quickly as possible to gain synergy benefits.
