2015-07-28 08:00:00 CEST 2015-07-28 08:00:08 CEST REGULATED INFORMATION Raute - Interim report (Q1 and Q3)Raute Corporation - Interim report January 1 - June 30, 2015Nastola, Finland, 2015-07-28 08:00 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RAUTE CORPORATION INTERIM REPORT JULY 28, 2015 at 9:00 a.m. RAUTE CORPORATION - INTERIM REPORT JANUARY 1 - JUNE 30, 2015 - The Group's net sales, EUR 56.4 million (MEUR 35.3), increased 59% on the comparison period. Order intake was EUR 115 million (MEUR 67). - Operating profit was EUR 3.4 million (MEUR -1.3). The result before taxes was EUR 3.5 million (MEUR -1.3). - Earnings per share were EUR 0.70 (EUR -0.27). - Positive development continued in the second quarter. Net sales were EUR 31.8 million and operating profit was EUR 2.2 million positive. Order intake was EUR 31 million. The order book at the end of the reporting period amounted to EUR 100 million. - The outlook for financial performance remains unchanged. Raute's net sales are expected to grow clearly in 2015 and operating profit is anticipated to improve clearly from 2014. TAPANI KIISKI, PRESIDENT AND CEO: POSITIVE DEVELOPMENT CONTINUES The order intake in the second quarter, EUR 31 million, remained at a good level. According to my assessment, however, there has been no clear growth in total demand for wood products technology and services market. What we are looking at is a partial unravelling of the built-up investment backlog, i.e. investment debt. Not to say that there hasn't been tentative positive development. Europe was still our most active market area. Some medium-sized projects are also moving forward in Russia, so despite a challenging economic and political situation, we see opportunities there also. I believe our order intake will remain at a reasonable level in the near future, however, growth will slow down compared to the first half of the year. The strong growth in net sales continued in the second quarter in both project deliveries and technology services. Major orders made in the first half of the year also increased net sales. Despite a very high work load, we have been able to implement our order book according to plan and our profitability corresponded with our net sales level. As we reported earlier this year, the timing of our order book is more evenly scheduled than in previous years. A significant proportion of our order book is scheduled for the next year. This will help us implement a large order book. A more evenly scheduled order book also means more evenly spread out net sales and profit development for this year. Our result for the whole of 2015 will markedly improve from last year. This is an opportunity for both our organization and partner network to demonstrate their expertise especially in the implementation of major projects - something that all of us at Raute and in our partner network are committed to. SECOND QUARTER OF 2015 Order intake and order book The order intake in the second quarter, EUR 31 million (MEUR 51), was at a good level. Technology services accounted for EUR 9 million (MEUR 15) of the order intake. The most significant new order was a EUR 13 million order for machinery and equipment for the expansion of UPM Plywood's Otepää mill in Estonia, which came into effect in April. The key equipment included in the delivery are veneer peeling, composing and patching lines, a veneer dryer and veneer lay-up line. The delivery also includes machine vision and moisture analysis solutions and a data collection and management system for the mill. The deliveries are scheduled to take place during spring and summer 2016. Other major new orders were peeling lines to Indonesia and Russia. The order book remained during the second quarter at near-record level, amounting to EUR 100 million at the end of the period (MEUR 59). Net sales Second-quarter net sales amounted to EUR 31.8 million (MEUR 20.3). Technology services accounted for 37 percent of the Group's total net sales (44%). Result and profitability Operating profit in the second quarter was EUR 2.2 million positive (MEUR 0.6 positive) and accounted for 7 percent (+3%) of net sales. The result was EUR 1.7 million positive (MEUR 0.5 positive), and earnings per share were EUR +0.43 (EUR +0.12). Profitability reflected the level of net sales. RAUTE CORPORATION - INTERIM REPORT JANUARY 1 - JUNE 30, 2015 BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT Market situation in customer industries Raute's customers in the veneer, plywood and LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber) industries are engaged in the manufacture of wood products used in investment commodities and are thus highly affected by fluctuations in construction, housing-related consumption, international trade, and transportation. During the first half of 2015, the situation in the global economy and the financial markets did not change considerably with respect to Raute or Raute's customer base. In recent weeks Greece's financing crisis has, however, reintroduced an element of general uncertainty. Despite this, according to our estimation, Europe's economic development has improved slightly. In terms of Russia, the rouble has continued to recover in the first half of this year following its plummet downwards at the end of last year. Clear economic growth has still not surfaced, however. Wood products companies focusing on exports are doing well. China's measures to strengthen its economy do not as yet support the financing of investments among Raute's customers. In addition the overheating of the equity markets has steered investments away from production operations. Construction activity has remained at a low level in all market areas, including North America, where the economy in general continues its positive growth. As a result of the uncertainty Raute's customers' order books have remained short, which does not make for an attractive environment for implementing investments. Demand for maintenance and spare parts services continued at a good level. This bears testimony to the fact that the utilization rates of Raute's customers' production facilities mainly remained good. Demand for wood products technology and technology services Following the two major projects that started up in March, a major project proceeded to the main production machinery order phase in April: a significant production capacity improvement project at a plywood mill in Estonia. Having three capacity-generating projects taking place simultaneously in Europe within such a short timeframe is extremely exceptional. In addition to the projects started up during the first half of the year, several large projects are still in the planning and negotiation phase in various market areas but the requirements for making the investment decisions, i.e. trust in the permanence of demand and the availability of funding, did not yet materialize. The market impact of the projects announced during the first half of the year may also defer the implementation of projects currently at the planning phase. Even though the North American economy continued to experience strong growth compared to the rest of the world, the growth of the construction industry has been clearly slower. Among Raute's customers, demand focused on smaller modernization projects and technology services, as well as on individual replacement investments. The uncertainty resulting from the crisis in Ukraine and the difficulty of securing financing due to the economic sanctions have caused investment decisions to be postponed in the Russian markets. However, many investments are still being prepared actively. The normalization of the market situation in Russia is not expected to happen anytime soon. In South America, Raute's customers are continuing to focus on ramping up the capacity of the large plywood mill investments they have made a few years ago and no new major investment projects were started up. Replacement investments also remained at a low level. ORDER INTAKE AND ORDER BOOK Raute serves the wood products industry with a full-service concept based on service that encompasses the entire life cycle of the delivered equipment. Raute's business consists of project deliveries and technology services. Project deliveries comprise complete production machinery for new mills, production lines and individual machines and equipment. Additionally, Raute's full-service concept includes comprehensive technology services ranging from spare parts deliveries to regular maintenance and equipment modernizations, as well as consulting, training and reconditioned machinery. The order intake amounted to EUR 115 million (MEUR 67) during the reporting period. Of new orders, 77 percent came from Europe (69%), 10 percent from North America (8%), 6 percent from Russia (18%), 4 percent from Asia-Pacific (2%) and 3 percent from South America (3%). The second quarter accounted for EUR 31 million of the order intake. The new orders included three capacity-generating mill projects to Europe. In March, Raute received an order from Finland worth EUR 30 million for the machinery and equipment for an LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber) production line and orders for machinery and equipment worth EUR 31 million from Estonia. At the end of April, Raute received an order worth EUR 13 million for machinery and equipment for the expansion of UPM Plywood's mill in Otepää, Estonia. The key equipment included in the delivery are veneer peeling, composing and patching lines, a veneer dryer and veneer lay-up line. The delivery also includes machine vision and moisture analysis solutions and a data collection and management system for the mill. The deliveries are scheduled to take place during spring and summer 2016. Order intake in technology services amounted to EUR 19 million (MEUR 21), 10 percent less than in the comparison period. Order intake in modernizations fell by one third on the comparison period due to new equipment investments on the part of major modernization customers. The order book grew during the reporting period by EUR 56 million, amounting to a near-record EUR 100 million at the end of the period (MEUR 59). Also the portion of the order book scheduled for 2016 was large considering the time of year. COMPETITIVE POSITION Raute's competitive position has remained good. Raute's solutions help customers in securing their delivery and service capabilities throughout the life cycle of the production process or part thereof supplied by Raute. In such investments, the supplier's overall expertise and extensive and diverse technology offering play a key role. The competitive edge provided by Raute is also a major draw when customers select their cooperation partners. Raute's strong financial position and long-term dedication to serving selected customer industries also enhance its credibility and improve its competitive position as a company that carries out long-term investment projects. NET SALES Net sales for the reporting period, EUR 56,4 million (MEUR 35.3), were up 59 percent on the comparison period. The growth in net sales resulted from a higher initial order book than in the comparison year, a large volume of order intake and the timing of the order book. Of the total net sales for the reporting period, Europe accounted for 63 percent (43%), North America for 12 percent (17%), Russia for 10 percent (17%), South America for 10 percent (20%), and Asia-Pacific for 5 percent (3%). Technology services accounted for 39 percent (45%) and EUR 22 million (MEUR 16) of the Group's total net sales during the period. Net sales for technology services grew 35 percent on the comparison period, mainly due to modernizations and spare parts. RESULT AND PROFITABILITY Operating profit for the reporting period was EUR 3.4 million positive (MEUR 1.3 negative) and accounted for 6 percent (-4%) of net sales. Profitability reflected the level of net sales. The result before taxes for the reporting period was EUR 3.5 million positive (MEUR 1.3 negative). The result for the reporting period was EUR 2.8 million positive (MEUR 1.1 negative). Earnings per share (undiluted) were EUR 0.70 (EUR -0.27). CASH FLOW AND BALANCE SHEET The Group's financial position remained good. At the end of the reporting period, gearing was -46 percent (-39%) and the equity ratio 56 percent (57%). Fluctuations in balance sheet working capital items and the key figures based on them are due to differences in the timing of customer payments and the cost accumulation from project deliveries, which is typical of the project business. The Group's cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 13.8 million (MEUR 12.4) at the end of the reporting period. Operating cash flow was EUR 12.8 million positive (MEUR 4.1 positive). Cash flow from investment activities was EUR 0.7 million negative (MEUR 0.7 negative). Cash flow from financing activities was EUR 2.8 million negative (MEUR 3.6 negative), including dividend payments and distribution of funds from non-restricted equity of EUR 2.4 million and debt repayments of EUR 0.6 million. Interest-bearing liabilities amounted to EUR 2.2 million (MEUR 4.3) at the end of the reporting period. The parent company Raute Corporation has a EUR 10 million commercial paper program, which allows the company to issue commercial papers maturing in less than one year. The parent company Raute Corporation is prepared for future working capital needs and has long-term credit facility agreements with three Nordic banks totaling EUR 23.0 million. The main covenants for the credit facility are an equity ratio of >30% and gearing of <100%. Of the credit facility, EUR 20 million remained unused at the end of the reporting period.

BUSINESS RISKS Risks in the near term continue to be driven by the uncertainty relating to the global economic situation and the development of the financial markets, as well as by international political instability. During the reporting period, there were no essential changes in the business risks described in the 2014 Board of Directors' Report and Financial Statements, apart from the impact of the growth in the order book on the profit outlook. The most significant risks for Raute in the near term are related to the implementation of an extremely high order book and work load. OUTLOOK FOR 2015 The actual development of net sales and profit, and the order book scheduled for 2015 support Raute's profit outlook. Raute's net sales are expected to grow clearly in 2015 and operating profit is anticipated to improve clearly from the previous year.

Accounting principles Raute Corporation's Interim financial report for January 1 - June 30, 2015 has been prepared in accordance with standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The Interim financial report does not contain full notes and other information presented in the financial statements, and therefore the Interim financial report should be read in conjunction with the Financial statements published for 2014. Raute Corporation's Interim financial report for January 1 - June 30, 2015 has been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS, accepted for application in the EU. Preparations have complied with the IAS and IFRS standards, as well as SIC and IFRIC interpretations, effective on June 30, 2015. The notes to the Interim financial statements also comply with Finnish accounting legislation. The Interim financial report has been prepared according to the same accounting principles as those applied in the Annual financial statement for 2014, with the exception of certain new or revised standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards which the Group has applied as of January 1, 2015. The impact of the new and revised standards has been presented in the Annual financial statements for 2014. The adoption of these standards has not had an impact on the Interim financial report. All of the figures presented in the Interim financial report are in thousand euro, unless otherwise stated. Due to the rounding of the figures in the financial statement tables, the sums of figures may deviate from the sum total presented in the table. Figures in parentheses refer to the corresponding figures in the comparison period. The preparation of Interim financial report in conformity with IFRS standards requires management to make certain critical accounting estimates and to exercise its judgment in applying the Group's accounting policies. Because the forward-looking estimates and assumptions are based on management's best knowledge at the reporting date, they comprise risks and uncertainties. The actual results may differ from these estimates. 3. Segment information Operational segment Continuing operations of Raute Group belong to the wood products technology segment. Due to Raute's business model, operational nature and administrative structure, the operational segment to be reported as wood products technology segment is comprised of the whole Group and the information on the segment is consistent with that of the Group. Segment reporting follows the principles of presentation of the consolidated financial statements. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 30.6. 30.6. 31.12.

Net sales The main part of the net sales is comprised of project deliveries related to wood products technology and modernizations in technology services, which are treated as long-term projects. The rest of the net sales is comprised of technology services provided to the wood products industry such as spare parts and maintenance services as well as services provided to the development of customers' business. Project deliveries and modernizations related to technology services include both product and service sales, making it impossible to give a reliable presentation of the breakdown of the Group's net sales into purely product and service sales. Large delivery projects can temporarily increase the shares of various customers of the Group's net sales to more than ten percent. At the end of the period, the Group had one customer (2), whose customized share of the Group's net sales temporarily exceeded ten percent. The sales share of the customer was 12 percent. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.1.-30.6. 1.1.-30.6. 1.1.-31.12.
