Tommi Tervanen, CEO of Kotipizza Group


The fourth quarter of the financial year ended a historic year during which
Kotipizza Group was listed on the Nasdaq OMX Helsinki stock exchange. The growth
of group net sales also continued at a near-historic pace similar to that from
earlier quarters of the financial year.

The sales in the Kotipizza chain continued on a good level, both in terms of
comparable net sales and customer volumes. The chain-based sales of continuing
operations increased 15.2% in November-January, being clearly above the average
growth in the Finnish fast food market.

The growth in net sales is particularly significant considering that the net
amount of Kotipizza restaurants continued to decrease during the review period.
At the end of the period, the number of Kotipizza restaurants was 257 (260). The
decrease in the number of restaurants is due to the consistent closing of non-
profitable restaurants. At the same time, the chain also invests in the opening
of new brick-and-mortar restaurants, so it can be estimated that the number of
restaurants will start growing again during 2016. At the end of the review
period, all Kotipizza restaurants were owned by franchisees apart from one
restaurant used as a product development and training unit of the chain.

The Group has consistently developed the Kotipizza chain in the spirit of the
fast casual phenomenon, that is, emphasizing the freshness, authenticity and
sustainability of the food. Part of the same emphasis is the Mexican-style
Chalupa chain started in September, 2015. At the end of the review period, two
brick-and-mortar Chalupa restaurants were operating in Helsinki, and Chalupa
products were available in one Kotipizza lunch restaurant.

Group net sales grew 13.2% in the last quarter of the year and were 14.6 MEUR
(12.9). The chain-based sales of continuing operations increased 15.2% in the
fourth quarter and 9.7% in the whole financial year. Comparable EBITDA was 1.17
MEUR (0.95) in the fourth quarter, a growth of 22.5%. Comparable EBITDA growth
in the whole financial year was 20%. That means we were on pace with our medium-
term financial goals, both in terms of the development of chain-based sales as
well as that of EBITDA. The financial standing of the Group is also on a solid
ground, net gearing was 32 percent and equity ratio 52 percent at the end of the
financial year.

We don't expect any material changes to the chained fast food market this year
compared to the previous year. The economic growth in Finland is expected to be
slow and to underperform Eurozone. The development of the national economy has a
direct impact to consumer demand and to demand for chained fast food. However,
according to the statistics demand growth for fast food has been stable, surely
following the overall economic development, during the past 15 years in Finland.

The growth of our chain-based net sales exceeded the market growth for chained
fast food in year 2015. Some of the contributing factors for the growth were the
ongoing concept renewal in Kotipizza, innovative R&D and sustainable
procurement. We don't see any such structural changes in the market place that
we would not expect our chain based net sales to grow in line with the fast food
market growth in Finland or even to exceed the market growth in 2016.

Therefore, we estimate the group's chain-based net sales from the continuing
operations will during the present financial year grow by over 5% as compared to
the previous financial year, and the comparable gross margin/EBITDA will grow as
compared to the previous financial year.


GROUP NET SALES

November 2015-January 2016
Chain-based net sales of the continuing operations grew 15.2% (2.4%) year on
year in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year and were 20.5 MEUR (17.8). The
chain-based net sales of the continuing operations is the total combined net
sales of the company's franchisees, based on which the company's franchising
fees are invoiced monthly. It also includes sales of the restaurants owned
directly by the group. The chain-based net sales of the continuing operations in
the financial year ending 31 January 2015 do not include the chain-based net
sales of the 55 Burger, Cola, Fries segment divested during the financial year.

Group comparable net sales for the fourth quarter of the financial year were
14.6 MEUR (12.9) and they grew 13.2% compared to same period in the previous
year. Reported net sales were 14.6 MEUR (12.9). Sales growth was mainly based on
Foodstock's increased sales volume to Kotipizza chain and new customers of
Foodstock. The net sales of Foodstock grew 16.4% year on year in the fourth
quarter of the fiscal year. The Kotipizza segment's net sales declined 2.0%
compared to the previous year and were 3.0 MEUR (3.1). The Chalupa segment's net
sales in the fourth quarter of the financial year were 0.2 MEUR (0.0).

The net sales of the discontinued operations were 0.0 MEUR in the fourth
quarter. In the same period of the previous year the net sales of the
discontinued operations were 0.8 MEUR.

February 2015-January 2016

Chain-based net sales of the continuing operations grew 9.7% (0.7%) year on year
in the financial year and were 77.3 MEUR (70.5).

Group comparable net sales for the financial year were 56.4 MEUR (52.2) and they
grew 7.9% compared to same period in the previous year. Reported net sales were
56.4 MEUR (52.2). The sales growth was mainly based on Foodstock's increased
sales volume to the Kotipizza chain. The net sales of Foodstock grew 10.4% year
in the financial year. The Kotipizza segment's net sales were down 3.8% compared
to the previous year and were 11.8 MEUR (12.3). The decline in net sales was
mainly due to the smaller number of restaurants directly owned by the Group. The
restaurants directly owned by the segment are consolidated in full, and due to
this their number may have a material effect on the consolidated figures. The
Chalupa segment's net sales in the financial year were 0.4 MEUR (0.0).

The net sales of the discontinued operations were 0.0 MEUR in the fourth quarter
and they declined 0.8 MEUR as compared to the net sales of 0.8 MEUR for the
twelve months period ending 31 January 2015.

GROUP EBIT

November 2015-January 2016
Comparable EBIT of the Group was 0.85 MEUR (0.79) in the fourth quarter of the
financial year. Reported EBIT was 0.85 MEUR (0.66). Reported EBIT did not
include items affecting comparability. Comparable EBIT for the fourth quarter
includes 0.05 MEUR inventory write downs and 0.05 MEUR of costs related to
relocation of Group headquarters, which have been treated as operational costs.
Operational gearing based on increased sales volumes together with the smaller
number of loss making Kotipizza segment's directly owned restaurants had a
positive impact on EBIT. Increased amount of depreciation (calculational, non-
cash) had a negative impact on EBIT.

February 2015-January 2016
Comparable EBIT of the Group was 4.28 MEUR (3.72) in the financial year.
Reported EBIT was 3.44 MEUR (3.80). Reported EBIT includes 0.84 MEUR of items
affecting comparability. Out of items affecting comparability 0.23 MEUR were due
to nonrecurring costs related to initial public offering of company's shares to
the Nasdaq OMX Helsinki Oy's stock exchange and 0.50 MEUR due to closing
permanently down Kotipizza Oyj's previous headquarters in Vaasa. These items
affecting comparability were cash based. In addition reported EBIT includes
0.12 MEUR non-cash deferral error related to Foodstock's inventory as an item
affecting comparability. Operational gearing based on increased sales volumes
had a positive impact on EBIT. Increased amount of depreciation (calculational,
non-cash) had a negative impact on the EBIT.

Olli Väätäinen, COO of Kotipizza Oyj

"The Kotipizza chain continued to reform strongly in the spirit of the fast
casual phenomenon during the review period, modernizing its menu and continuing
a facelift of the restaurant design. Part of the reform  was also the continuing
closing of non-profitable restaurants while also investing in the opening of new
ones. At the end of the review period, the number of restaurants was 257 (260).
Particularly strong were the investments made in the development of the online
store. At the end of the review period, orders made through the online store
amounted to nearly a tenth of the net sales in brick-and-mortar restaurants."

November 2015-January 2016
Net sales of Kotipizza for the fourth quarter of the financial year were 3.04
MEUR (3.10) and they declined 2.0% compared to same period in the previous year.
The decline in net sales was mainly due to the smaller number of restaurants
directly owned by the segment. The restaurants directly owned by the segment are
consolidated in full, and due to this their number may have a material effect on
the consolidated figures. During the fourth quarter of the year the number of
directly owned restaurants averaged one (1) and it averaged five (5) during the
same period in the previous year.

Kotipizza's comparable EBITDA of was 1.38 MEUR (1.26) in the fourth quarter of
the financial year and it grew 9.4% compared to same period in the previous
year. Improvement in comparable EBITDA was mainly due to reduced number of
directly owned loss-making restaurants, restructuring measures implemented in
the segment's operations and favourable development of chain-based net sales in
Kotipizza. Reported EBITDA was 1.38 MEUR (1.15) in fourth quarter of the
financial year. Reported EBITDA in Kotipizza did not include items affecting
comparability in the fourth quarter. The previous year's comparable EBITDA for
the fourth quarter has been adjusted with 0.11 MEUR items affecting
comparability related to restructuring Kotipizza'a Swedish operations.

February 2015-January 2016
Net sales of Kotipizza for the financial year were 11.78 MEUR (12.25) and they
declined 3.8% compared to same period in the previous year. The decline in net
sales was mainly due to the smaller number of restaurants directly owned by the
segment. The restaurants directly owned by the segment are consolidated in full,
and due to this their number may have a material effect on the consolidated
figures. During the fourth quarter of the year the number of directly owned
restaurants averaged one (1) and it averaged eight (8) during the same period in
the previous year.

Kotipizza's comparable EBITDA of was 5.47 MEUR (4.17) in February-October and it
grew 31.1% compared to same period in the previous year. The improvement in
comparable EBITDA was mainly due to reduced number of directly owned loss-making
restaurants, restructuring measures implemented in the segment's operations and
favourable development of chain-based net sales in Kotipizza. On the other hand
comparable EBITDA was burdened by double administration costs during the first
four months of the review period. Kotipizza's reported EBITDA was 5.20 MEUR
(4.15) in the financial year and it grew 25.1% compared to the previous year.
Reported EBIT includes 0.27 MEUR of items affecting comparability. Items
affecting comparability were cash based, nonrecurring costs related to closing
down company's old headquarters in Vaasa. Internal eliminations related to sold
Francount business operations have been returned to the comparable EBITDA as an
item affecting comparability for the previous year. Equivalent costs related to
financial management are the segment's direct costs in the current corporate
structure. The previous year's comparable EBITDA for the fourth quarter has been
adjusted with 0.11 MEUR items affecting comparability related to restructuring
Kotipizza's Swedish operations.

Anssi Koivula, CEO of Helsinki Foodstock Oy

"The most significant development of the review period was that the Subway chain
renewed in December its contract with Foodstock for the next five-year period.
In December, Foodstock also entered a co-operation with the Fafa's chain. Within
the Group, Foodstock's operations have been especially affected by the Kotipizza
chain's growing emphasis on the sustainability and local ingredients. Foodstock
has also taken part in the planning of the sourcing of the ingredients for the
Chalupa chain. Chalupa's sourcing has gradually been shifted to us and we are
now responsible for a majority of the chain's sourcing."

November 2015-January 2016
Net sales of Foodstock for the fourth quarter of the financial year were 11.40
MEUR (9.80) and they grew 16.4% compared to same period in the previous year.
The growth in net sales was mainly due to favourable development of Kotipizza
chain-based net sales, which had a positive boost to Foodstock's delivery
volumes for the chain. The positive volume effect of Foodstock's new customers
also started to be visible in the reported numbers.

Foodstock's comparable EBITDA improved and was 0.22 MEUR (-0,14) in the fourth
quarter of the financial year. Foodstock's reported EBITDA was 0.22 MEUR (-
0,14) in the fourth quarter of the financial year. Reported EBITDA did not
include items affecting comparability in the fourth quarter. Internal

the comparable EBITDA as an item affecting comparability for the previous year.
Equivalent costs related to financial management are the segment's direct costs
in the current corporate structure.

February 2015-January 2016
Net sales of Foodstock for February-October were 44.10 MEUR (40.00) and they
grew 10.4% compared to same period in the previous year. The growth in net sales
was mainly due to increased sales volume to the Kotipizza chain and new
customers won at the end of the financial year.

Foodstock's comparable EBITDA was 0.96 MEUR (0.66) in the financial year and it
increased 46.7% compared to the same period in the previous year. Foodstock's
reported EBITDA was 0.85 MEUR (0.79) in the financial year and it increased
7.1% from the previous year. Reported EBIT includes 0.12 MEUR non-cash deferral
error related to Foodstock's inventory as an item affecting comparability.

Iman Gharagozlu, Creative Director of Chalupa Oy

"The first restaurant of the Chalupa chain was opened in September 2015, and our
experiences since then have been a testament to our faith in fast casual
concepts, that is, that Finns prefer fresh and responsibly produced, reasonably-
priced food to industrial fast food. At the end of the review period, two
Chalupa restaurants operated in Helsinki, and Chalupa products were available at
one Kotipizza lunch restaurant. From the point of view of the future of the
chain, the period's most important task was the refining, testing and
documentation of the Chalupa concept so that the chain can start expanding on a
franchising basis."

November 2015-January 2016
Chalupa's net sales were 0.17 MEUR (0.00) in the fourth quarter of the financial
year and comparable EBITDA together with reported EBITDA was 0.00 MEUR (0.00).
After the review period, Chalupa opened a new restaurant in Kauniainen and
signed a rental agreement to open a new restaurant in Tampere in March-April
2016. The completion of the franchising prospectus is on schedule and it is
expected that first franchisee entrepreneurs will start operations in the spring
2016.

February 2015-January 2016
Chalupa's net sales were 0.44 MEUR (0.00) in the financial year and comparable
EBITDA together with reported EBITDA was -0.07 MEUR (0.00). Chalupa commenced
its true business operations during the third quarter of the financial year due
to delay in building permit process for the first restaurant.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

In the long term, Kotipizza Group's operative risks and uncertainties relate to
a possible failure in predicting consumer preferences and in creating attractive
new concepts, as well as to new business risks related to possible expansion to
new cities and abroad. The competitive situation is expected to remain harsh in
the fast food industry. Company's management cannot affect the general market
development and consumer behaviour with its actions.

Restaurant openings also have a material impact on company's franchising, rent,
entry, building, operating system, training and other income, income received
from selling raw materials and supplies and transport and flow of goods related
income and thus to the company's financial result.

Kotipizza Group is currently launching a new fast casual concept, which is
reported as Chalupa segment. Launching a new business concept has several risks
related e.g. anticipation of consumer needs, habits, taste and behaviour.
Launching a new concept has a risk of not reaching an established position at
the market and not having a well-established clientele. Failure in launching a
new concept causes costs to the company and has a material adverse impact on
company's brand, financial position and financial result.

EVENTS AFTER THE REPORT PERIOD

Danske Bank A/S announced on March 8, 2016, pursuant to the Finnish Securities
Markets Act chapter 9, section 10, that its holding in Kotipizza Group Oyj had
increased above (5) percent (1/20) of the share capital on March 8, 2016.

OUTLOOK FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR 2017

Demand for chained fast food is estimated to remain stable. The economic growth
in Finland is expected to be slow and to clearly underperform Eurozone.
According to estimates the national economy in Finland is expected to remain on
the previous years' level or to even slightly decline. The development of the
national economy has a direct impact to consumer demand and to demand for
chained fast food. According to the Finnish Hospitality Association (MaRa) the
turnover of the chained based fast food restaurants in Finland grew 5.7% in
2015. Demand for fast food has according to statistics remained relatively
stable, surely following the overall development of the economy. According to
MaRa's statistics turnover of the chained based fast food restaurants in Finland
has grown 2.2 percent a year (CAGR) in years 2000-2015.

The growth of our chain-based net sales exceeded the market growth for chained
fast food in year 2015 based on the ongoing concept renewal in Kotipizza,
innovative R&D and sustainable procurement. According to the Group management,
there are currently no such structural changes seen in the market place that the
management would not expect company's chain based net sales to grow in line with
the fast food market growth in Finland or even to exceed the market growth in
2016.

The Company estimates the chain-based net sales of the continuing operations
will grow during the present financial year by over 5 percent as compared to the
previous financial year, and the comparable gross margin (EBITDA) will grow as
compared to the previous financial year.

Board of director's proposal for distribution from Fund for invested
unrestricted equity

Board of directors proposes 0.35 Euros per share distribution from the Fund for
invested unrestricted equity for the financial year 1 February 2015-31 January
2016.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Kotipizza Group's unaudited financial statements bulletin for the twelve-month
period ending 31 January 2016, including the audited comparison figures for the
twelve-month period ending 31 January 2015, have been prepared according to IAS
34 and applying the same accounting principles that were used in the previous
audited full year financial statements.
