LASSILA & TIKANOJA PLC INTERIM REPORT 29 July 2008 8.00 am
LASSILA & TIKANOJA PLC INTERIM REPORT 29 July 2008 8.00 am INTERIM REPORT 1 JANUARY - 30 JUNE 2008 - Net sales for the second quarter EUR 154.4 million (EUR 138.8 million); operating profit EUR 10.2 million (EUR 12.0 million); operating profit excluding non-recurring and imputed items EUR 11.3 million (EUR 13.8 million); earnings per share EUR 0.17 (EUR 0.20) - Net sales for January-June EUR 301.7 million (EUR 267.9 million); operating profit EUR 33.0 million (EUR 21.2 million); operating profit excluding non-recurring and imputed items EUR 20.1 million (EUR 24.1 million); earnings per share EUR 0.68 (EUR 0.35) - Full-year net sales are expected to increase by approximately 10 per cent. The operating profit excluding non-recurring and imputed items is expected to be somewhat lower than in the previous year. The capital gain from Ekokem shares will improve earnings. GROUP NET SALES AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE Second quarter Net sales for the second quarter stood at EUR 154.4 million (EUR 138.8 million). This represented an increase of 11.2%, 1.5 percentage points of which came from corporate acquisitions. The operating profit was EUR 10.2 million (EUR 12.0 million), which is 6.6% (8.7%) of net sales. The operating profit excluding non-recurring and imputed items was EUR 11.3 million (EUR 13.8 million). Earnings per share were EUR 0.17 (EUR 0.20). Organic growth continued. The quarter's performance was burdened by a larger rise than expected in the general cost level, particularly in the prices of transport fuels that can only be transferred into sales prices with a delay. The operating profit was also burdened by changes in the fair values of oil derivatives amounting to EUR 1.1 million (EUR 0.5 million). January-June Net sales for January-June stood at EUR 301.7 million (EUR 267.9 million). This represented an increase of 12.6%, 3.8 percentage points of which came from corporate acquisitions. The operating profit was EUR 33.0 million (EUR 21.2 million), which is 10.9% (7.9%) of net sales. The operating profit excluding non-recurring and imputed items was EUR 20.1 million (EUR 24.1 million). Earnings per share were EUR 0.68 (EUR 0.35). Organic growth outperformed market growth, and new service products were introduced to the market. The operating profit was improved by a capital gain of EUR 14.3 million from the sale of Ekokem shares in January. The operating profit excluding non-recurring and imputed items was burdened by a rapid increase in production costs and a decline in the demand for recycled fuels and biofuels due to the mild winter. The operating profit was burdened by changes in the fair values of oil derivatives amounting to EUR 1.4 million (EUR 1.6 million).

NET SALES AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE BY DIVISION Environmental Services Second quarter The net sales of Environmental Services (waste management, recycling services, L&T Biowatti, environmental products) in the second quarter amounted to EUR 76.6 million (EUR 71.7 million), an increase of 6.8%. The operating profit was EUR 8.2 million (EUR 8.1 million). Rapidly increasing production costs, particularly an increase in the prices of transport fuels, burdened the division's operating performance. The cost increase had its greatest effect in waste management, which fell short of its targets. The profitability of recycling services was weakened by a continuing increase in the purchase prices of certain waste materials and a downturn in the availability of recycled materials from the forest industry. The heating values of biofuels supplied by L&T Biowatti were higher than in the comparison period, and its performance improved. Operations outside Finland within Environmental Services expanded, and performance developed favourably. Net sales from Environmental Products continued to increase. All units within waste management and recycling services received certificates for quality, environmental, occupational health and safety management. The objective of certification is to improve service and reinforce shared operating procedures. January-June Environmental Services' net sales for January-June amounted to EUR 152.1 million (EUR 137.1 million), an increase of 10.9%. The operating profit was EUR 16.6 million (EUR 16.9 million). It was not possible to transfer the major increase in transport fuel prices completely into sales prices. Prices will be increased with a delay, and production efficiency measures were initiated in order to adapt to increased production costs. Construction of substantial added capacity was initiated at the Kerava recycling park. The capacity of the Kerava plant will be doubled to almost 400,000 tonnes by 2010, and the recovery rate will increase substantially. Due to the reduced capacity of the landfill at the Kerava plant for technical reasons, the costs of disposal of plant reject will increase. The industrial waste landfill under construction in Kotka is expected to be completed within the next few months. The demand for L&T Biowatti's biofuels was substantially lower than expected, which was due to the exceptionally mild winter. Warm weather also hampered the collection of forest processed chips, and subcontracting costs increased. L&T Biowatti will invest in its own collecting, processing and transport equipment for forest processed chips and start the production of wood pellets during the current year. The business in Russia and Latvia developed as planned. Resources were increased to further expand international operations. Property and Office Support Services Second quarter The net sales of Property and Office Support Services (property maintenance and cleaning services) in the second quarter totalled EUR 57.1 million (EUR 48.7 million), an increase of 17.4%. The operating profit was EUR 1.2 million (EUR 1.7 million). Growth in net sales continued thanks to acquisitions made in the previous year. Organic growth was strong particularly in property maintenance. The division's performance weakened due to increased production costs that could not be transferred fully to prices. Operations in Sweden remained in the red, and an extensive action programme to improve profitability is underway. January-June The January-June net sales of Property and Office Support Services totalled EUR 112.7 million (EUR 97.4 million), an increase of 15.7%. The operating profit was EUR 2.8 million (EUR 2.8 million). Contract revenue increased, and the sales of additional services were successful. Price competition remained intense, and operations are being adapted to increased production costs. New service products were again introduced to the market. New products in cleaning services included the L&T® EcoCleaning concept, which received the Nordic Ecolabel, also known as the Swan Label, as the first product of the industry in Finland. The concept provides customers the opportunity to carry out concrete environment-friendly actions. The holding in Blue Service Partners was sold to the joint venture partner in the beginning of February. The operations in Russia and Latvia developed as planned. The focus in Sweden is still on organic growth and improving profitability. The loss from international operations declined. Industrial Services Second quarter The net sales of Industrial Services (hazardous waste management, industrial solutions, damage repair services, wastewater services) in the second quarter amounted to EUR 22.1 million (EUR 19.6 million), an increase of 12.7%. The operating profit was EUR 1.2 million (EUR 2.6 million). Rapid fluctuation in the demand for industrial cleaning services continued, and production could not be adapted to the fluctuation quickly enough. Net sales from all product lines increased but it was not yet possible to transfer the entire increase in the cost level into prices. The operating profit was also burdened by changes in the fair values of oil derivatives amounting to EUR 1.1 million (EUR 0.5 million), as well as the costs of raw material storage for the L&T Recoil re-refinery for used lubricating oil that is currently under construction. New partner agreements were made in damage repair services, and the service network was expanded. Demand for the division's services improved towards the end of the period. January-June The January-June net sales of Industrial Services amounted to EUR 39.4 million (EUR 35.7 million), an increase of 10.4%. The operating profit was EUR 0.3 million (EUR 2.5 million). Most of the growth came from operations transferred from Environmental Services. The demand for Industrial Services is usually weakest early in the year; however, demand in the comparison period was exceptionally strong. Production could not be adapted quickly enough to the rapid fluctuation in the demand for services. In the first quarter the earnings were also burdened by difficulties in delivering recycled fuels. The earnings were also burdened by changes in the fair values of oil derivatives amounting to EUR 1.4 million (EUR 1.6 million). Pricing will be adjusted, and all product lines will focus on improving profitability. The L&T Recoil re-refinery is expected to be completed towards the end of the year. FINANCING At the end of the period, interest-bearing liabilities amounted to EUR 2.1 million more than a year earlier. Net interest-bearing liabilities, totalling EUR 111.8 million, increased by EUR 6.9 million from the comparison period and by EUR 25.4 million from the beginning of the year. Net finance costs increased by EUR 0.1 million in the second quarter and by EUR 0.3 million in January-June. Interest expenses increased by EUR 0.1 million in the second quarter and by EUR 0.4 million in January-June. An expense of EUR 0.1 million arising from changes in the fair values of interest rate swaps was recognised in the finance costs while there were none of them in the comparison period. Net finance costs were 0.7% (0.7%) of net sales and 6.3% (8.4%) of operating profit. In January-June, a total of EUR 0.4 million arising from the change in the fair value of interest rate swaps to which hedge accounting under IAS 39 is applied, was recognised as an increase in equity. The equity ratio was 44.5% (42.2%) and the gearing rate 57.7 (61.2). Cash flows from operating activities in January-June amounted to EUR 25.9 million (EUR 24.7 million), and EUR 2.3 million were tied up in the working capital (EUR 5.8 million). DIVIDEND The Annual General Meeting held on 1 April 2008 resolved on a dividend of EUR 0.55 per share. The dividend, totalling EUR 21.3 million, was paid to the shareholders on 11 April 2008. CAPITAL EXPENDITURE Capital expenditure totalled EUR 31.4 million (EUR 64.7 million). Production plants were built and machinery and equipment were purchased and information systems were replaced. On 1 April 2008, the property maintenance services business of Rantakylän Talonhuolto Oy was acquired into Property and Office Support Services (annual net sales EUR 0.2 million). In the first quarter the cleaning services business of Siivouspalvelu Siivoset Oy and the cleaning services business of Siivousliike Lainio Oy were acquired into Property and Office Support Services. The business of Obawater Oy was acquired into waste water services within Industrial Services. The combined annual net sales of the acquired businesses totalled EUR 0.7 million. PERSONNEL In January-June, the average number of employees converted into full-time equivalents was 7.972 (7.398). At the end of the period, the total number of full-time and part-time employees was 10.087 (9.486). Of them 7.694 (7.212) people worked in Finland and 2.393 (2.274) people in other countries.

SUMMARY OF STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASES PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 7, CHAPTER 2 OF THE SECURITIES MARKETS ACT On 22 January 2008, Lassila & Tikanoja sold its holding in the shares of Ekokem Oy Ab to Ilmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance Company. Lassila & Tikanoja had obtained possession of the shares over a period of several years and they no longer had any connection to the business operations of the company and were, consequently, not essential for them. A tax-free capital gain arising from the sale was recognised in the financial statements for the first quarter of the year 2008. The positive effect of the sale on the profit for the period will be EUR 14.2 million. In a release disclosed on 22 July 2008, the company announced that the full-year operating profit excluding non-recurring and imputed items is estimated to be somewhat lower than in the previous year. Previously the company estimated that the full-year financial performance will remain at the same level as in the previous year. NEAR-TERM UNCERTAINTIES If the prices of crucial production factors such as transport fuels continue to increase at the same rate as in the first half of the year, the delay in transferring the cost increase to sales prices may hamper profitability. 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. If the next winter is mild, this will have a negative impact on L&T Biowatti's earnings development. A planned amendment to Latvian waste legislation may have adverse effects on the competition situation for waste management in Riga towards the end of the year. PROSPECTS FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR The demand outlook in Lassila & Tikanoja's markets remain mostly good but the adaptation of the costs and transferring the cost increases to sales prices will impose challenges. Full-year net sales are expected to increase by approximately 10 per cent. The operating profit excluding non-recurring and imputed items is expected to be somewhat lower than in the previous year. However, the capital gain from Ekokem shares will improve earnings. The demand for Environmental Services is expected to remain good. Increasing the capacity of recycling plants and landfills will continue, as well as geographical expansion in Russia. During the rest of the year, L&T Biowatti will continue to invest in strengthening its procurement organisation and collection equipment for forest processed chips, as well as start the production of wood pellets. A potential slowdown in new construction may be reflected in the intake volumes of recycling plants. Environmental Services' operating profit is expected to remain at the same level as in the previous year. The market outlook for Property and Office Support Services remains good even though the competitive situation is expected to remain challenging and margins are expected to remain tight. Costs in Finland are increased through pay rises and increases in social security costs and transport fuel prices. The division's international operations are expected to improve their performance but still remain in the red. The operating profit from Property and Office Support Services is expected to fall somewhat short of the previous year's level. The market outlook for Industrial Services remains mostly positive; however, uncertainties in the forest industry will be reflected in services produced by the division. Rapid fluctuations in demand are expected to continue towards the end of the year. The L&T Recoil re-refinery is expected to be completed at the end of the year. The operating profit from Industrial Services is expected to fall short of the previous year's level. Investments will be lower than in the previous year. The main emphasis will be on profitability improvement.
