Change to forecast for 2011
Glaston's outlook has been revised. Weakened market prospects will impact the
development of the final quarter. We expect 2011 net sales to be at the 2010
level, and the operating result to be a slight loss. (Earlier forecast: 2011
net sales expected to be least at the 2010 level and the operating result to
return to profit.) 



President & CEO Arto Metsänen:
“In the third quarter, uncertainty in the world economy grew. The weaker
economic outlook was reflected in customers' willingness to invest and this led
to a postponement of larger investment decisions. 

In the third quarter, our net sales did not develop according to our
expectations and were at a lower level than the previous year. The weak
third-quarter financial performance was mainly due to a fall in sales at the
end of the quarter. Operational adjustment measures will be robustly continued
during the final quarter of the year. 

The final quarter will be overshadowed by a slowing of the world economy. The
uncertain market outlook will also be reflected in demand for glass processing
machines. For this reason, our forecast for our 2011 performance has been
revised. We expect 2011 net sales to be at the 2010 level, and the operating
result to be a slight loss. 

We will purposefully continue our investments in those areas which do not
require significant investments from customers, namely Services, Software
Solutions and Tools. This week, at the Vitrum Fair in Milan, we will launch a
number of new products in the Services segment: the new Warranty5 five-year
guarantee programme for heat treatment machines as well as the web shop
GlastOnline, which initially will offer a range of spare parts for Tamglass and
Uniglass machines, a total of around 1,000 items. 

Markets
Demand for glass processing machines weakened during the third quarter as
demand developed unevenly in different market areas. In the South American
market, positive development continued. In Western Europe, demand remained
weak, while in Eastern Europe the machine market picked up. In Asia, the
levelling off in the market that began in the second quarter continued in the
third quarter. In North America, demand for machines continued to be weak, with
customer demand being directed mainly at Services segment products. 
Machines
In South America, the stable market development continued in the third quarter.
In the EMEA area, uncertain economic development continued and was reflected in
demand for machines. An exception was Eastern Europe, where the Polish and
Russian markets showed strong signs of recovery. In North America, the market
remained subdued, with demand being directed at the solar energy glass segment.
In both the EMEA area and North America, caution among investors lengthened
investment decision times,particularly impacting orders of Heat Treatment
machines. In Asia, growth levelled off during the third quarter. 

Measures to improve the profitability of the Machines segment continued. In
January-September, the Machines segment's net sales totalled EUR 63.8 (71.4)
million. 

Services
The positive development of the Services segment market continued in the third
quarter. Demand was directed particularly at upgrade products and spare parts.
Compared with the previous year, the Services segment grew in Asia, South
America and North America. 

Due to growing sales of upgrade products and spare parts, a higher invoicing
rate for maintenance work, and faster spare parts deliveries, the profitability
of the Services segment improved further. The Services segment's
January-September net sales totalled EUR 23.1 (23.3) million. 


Software Solutions
There were no significant changes in the Software Solutions segment's market
during the third quarter. In Europe, the holiday season dampened sales, and
economic uncertainty undermined customers' willingness to invest, so no
significant software investments were made during the third quarter. 

Uwe Schmid began work as Senior Vice President, Software Solutions in July,
assuming full responsibility for the Software Solutions segment on 1 September
2011. Under his leadership, organizational changes of the segment have been
launched, with reforms being directed particularly at product development and
sales. Extensive measures to enhance operational efficiency have also been
initiated in the segment. 

In January-September, the Software Solutions segment's net sales totalled EUR
17.5 (18.1) million. 

Orders received
Glaston's orders received in the review period totalled EUR 101.6 (107.6)
million. Of orders received, the Machines segment accounted for 61%, the
Services segment 23% and the Software Solutions segment 16%. Orders received in
the third quarter totalled EUR 26.8 (38.5) million. 



Order book
Glaston's order book on 30 September 2011 was EUR 36.7 (39.7) million. Of the
order book, the Machines segment accounted for EUR 33.1 million, the Services
segment EUR 1.4 million and the Software Solutions segment EUR 2.2 million.

Net sales and result
Net sales for the review period totalled EUR 103.4 (111.8) million. The
Machines segment's net sales in the review period were EUR 63.8 (71.4) million,
the Services segment's net sales EUR 23.1 (23.3) million and the Software
Solutions segment's net sales EUR 17.5 (18.1) million. 

Third-quarter net sales were EUR 27.5 (31.9) million and distributed across the
business segments as follows: Machines EUR 16.2 (18.5) million, Services EUR
6.3 (7.8) million and Software Solutions EUR 5.3 (6.1) million. The development
of net sales was particularly affected by customers' unwillingness to invest,
which was reflected most strongly in sales of Heat Treatment machines.

The operating result excluding non-recurring items was a loss of EUR 2.3 (7.3
loss) million, i.e. -2.2 (-6.6)% of net sales. The adjustment measures taken
were not sufficient to balance weaker sales. 

Of the January-September operating result the Machines segment's contribution
was EUR -3.4 (-5.8) million, the Services segment's contribution EUR 4.7 (2.1)
million and the Software Solutions segment's contribution EUR 1.0 (1.4)
million. 

The third-quarter operating loss was EUR 2.6 (2.8 loss) million, of which the
Machines segment accounted for EUR -1.7 (-2.6) million, the Services segment
for EUR 0.9 (0.6) million and the Software Solutions segment for EUR -0.3 (0.2)
million.

The loss for the review period was EUR 13.3 (13.2 loss) million, and the loss
for the third quarter was EUR 4.6 (5.4 loss) million. Return on capital
employed in January-September was -1.6 (-8.3)% and earnings per share were EUR
-0.13 (-0.16). Earnings per share in July-September were EUR -0.04 (-0.07). 

Glaston's net financial expenses in the review period were EUR -9.9 (-5.9)
million. Financial expenses were increased by a EUR 3.4 million expense
recognition arising from additional compensation granted in connection with the
conversion of the convertible bond. This recognition had no impact on equity or
cash flow, however. 

Financial position, cash flow and financing
At the end of the review period, the consolidated asset total was EUR 187.9
(215.1) million. The equity attributable to owners of the parent was EUR 54.0
(57.5) million, i.e. EUR 0.51 (0.70) per share. The equity ratio on 30
September 2011 was 31.5 (28.9)%. 

Cash flow from operating activities, excluding the change in working capital,
was EUR -8.6 (-11.2) million in the review period. Reasons for the negative
cash flow were among other things financial expenses, such as payment of
interest on convertible bonds, and the settling of provisions recognised in
2010. Working capital developed positively compared with the corresponding
period of the previous year, with the change in working capital being EUR 6.6
(-6.3) million. Cash flow from investments was EUR -3.9 (-2.2) million and cash
flow from financing activities was EUR 8.1 (15.0) million. 

Glaston's financing is mainly arranged through a financing package of
approximately EUR 74 million concluded in February. In addition, Glaston has a
convertible bond with a nominal value of EUR 8.8 million, and a EUR 4 million
debenture loan. 

Adjustment measures
In the current year, the operational development priorities have been a clear
improvement in business profitability and completing adjustment measures.
During the third quarter, adjustment measures proceeded according to plan. The
restructuring of the Pre-processing product line was completed in July with the
merger of Heat Treatment and Pre-processing production operations in Brazil.
Measures to adjust production capacity to correspond with demand continued in
Finland and Italy during the third quarter. In Finland, a programme to enhance
operational efficiency and improve the profitability of the Heat Treatment
product line was launched at the beginning of September. 

Capital expenditure, depreciation and amortisation
Glaston's gross capital expenditure totalled EUR 4.1 (3.2) million. In the
review period, there were no significant individual investments; investments
were mainly directed at development expenditure on new products. 

Depreciation and amortisation recognised during the review period totalled EUR
5.9 (5.6) million, and impairment losses on tangible and intangible assets were
EUR 0.0 (0.3) million. 

Organisation and personnel
On 30 September 2011, Glaston Corporation had a total of 898 (997) employees.
Of the Group's employees, 17% worked in Finland and 40% elsewhere in Europe,
28% in Asia and 15% in the Americas. The average number of employees was 907
(1,046). 

Shares and share prices
Glaston Corporation's paid and registered share capital on 30 September 2011
was EUR 12.7 million and the number of issued and registered shares totalled
105,588,636. The company has one series of share. At the end of September, the
company held 788,582 of the company's own shares (treasury shares),
corresponding to 0.75% of the total number of issued and registered shares and
votes on 30 September 2011. The counter book value of treasury shares is EUR
94,819. 

Every share that the company does not hold itself entitles its owner to one
vote at the Annual General Meeting. The share has no nominal value. The counter
book value of each registered share is EUR 0.12. 

On 30 September 2011, the market capitalisation of the company's shares,
treasury shares excluded, was EUR 67.1 (100.6) million. During the first nine
months of the year, approximately 5.2 million of the company's shares were
traded, representing around 5.3% of the average number of shares. The lowest
price paid for a share was EUR 0.61 and the highest price EUR 1.27. The
volume-weighted average price of shares traded during January-September was EUR
1.03. The closing price on 30 September 2011 was EUR 0.64. 

The share-issue adjusted equity per share attributable to owners of the parent
was EUR 0.51 (0.70). 

The 2011 Annual General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide on
a share issue, including the right to issue new shares and/or convey treasury
shares. The share issue authorisation covers a maximum of 20,000,000 shares and
is valid until the end of the 2013 Annual General Meeting. The authorisation
includes the right to decide on a share issue without payment. The Board of
Directors also has the right to issue and/or convey shares in derogation of the
pre-emptive subscription right of shareholders. 


The Board of Directors decided on 28 April 2011 to implement a directed share
issue without payment. In the share issue, a total of 3,092,501 new company
shares were issued without payment. At the end of the review period, the Board
of Directors still has an authorisation to issue 16,907,499 shares. The Board
of Directors has no other authorisations. 



Decisions of the Annual General Meeting
Glaston's Annual General Meeting, held on 5 April 2011, confirmed the financial
statements and discharged the President & CEO and the Members of the Board of
Directors from liability for financial year 2010. The Annual General Meeting
approved the proposal of the Board of Directors that no dividend be distributed
for the financial year 2010. 

The Annual General Meeting decided that there should be six Members of the
Board of Directors. Claus von Bonsdorff, Carl-Johan Rosenbröijer, Teuvo
Salminen, Christer Sumelius, Andreas Tallberg and Pekka Vauramo were elected as
Members of the Board of Directors. 

Public Accountants Ernst & Young Oy were elected as auditor for 2011.

Uncertainties and risks in the near future
Financial uncertainty increased further during the third quarter. Market
instability may lead to the postponement of orders and changes in machine
delivery schedules. Customers' difficulties relating to finance arrangements
may restrict customers' investment opportunities, which might be reflected in
the development of Glaston's final quarter. 

The underlying nature of the sector is expected to remain unchanged, so
development in the coming years is expected to be positive. If the recovery of
the sector is delayed or slows, this will have a negative effect on Glaston's
result. The shift of the geographical focus of activity to areas of higher
economic growth will, however, dampen the economic effects of a possibly slower
recovery in Western Europe and in North America. 

Glaston performs annual goodwill impairment testing during the final quarter of
the year. Due to the prolonged market uncertainty, it is possible that
Glaston's recoverable amounts will be insufficient to cover the carrying
amounts of assets, particularly goodwill. If this happens, it will be necessary
to recognise an impairment loss, which, when implemented, will weaken the
result and equity. 

Outlook
Glaston's markets slowed significantly during the third quarter. Demand in the
rapidly growing Asian market, particularly China, levelled off. Market
conditions in North America and Europe continued to be challenging. Only in the
South American market did stable development continue. 

In 2011 the business development priorities have been improving profitability
and completing adjustment measures. The cornerstones of Glaston's operations
remain the architectural glass segment and the solar energy market. Over the
longer term, prospects for the solar energy glass segment are good. 

Due to weakened market prospects, the company will robustly continue its
adjustment measures. 

Weakened market prospects will impact the development of the final quarter, and
the outlook for Glaston has been revised. We expect 2011 net sales to be at the
2010 level, and the operating result to be a slight loss. (Earlier forecast:
2011 net sales expected to be least at the 2010 level and the operating result
to return to profit.)
