2016-02-17 14:45:01 CET 2016-02-17 14:45:01 CET REGULATED INFORMATION Valoe Oyj - Financial Statement ReleaseVALOE CORPORATION, FINANCIAL STATEMENT RELEASE 2015Valoe Corporation Financial Statement Release 2015 17 February 2016 at 15.45 Finnish time VALOE CORPORATION, FINANCIAL STATEMENT RELEASE 2015 SUMMARY - The restructuring of Valoe Corporation (“Valoe”) from a company providing electronics automation solutions to a technology company focusing on clean energy solutions, particularly on photovoltaic solutions, was completed during 2015. Now Valoe is a technology startup which, however, already has new, competitive and tested technology in use; operating automated production plant; worldwide market; as well as experienced personnel with competence in international technology sales, production and projects. - After the end of the reporting period Valoe has received a ca. EUR 15.8 million order for a solar module manufacturing plant. The plant will be delivered to Ethiopia during the year 2016. About EUR 9.5 million of the sales price will be paid in cash to Valoe and the rest of the sales price in shares of the customer company resulting in Valoe having a 30 percent shareholding in its Ethiopian manufacturing partner. - With regard to the sale of Valoe’s electronics automation business to FTTK Company Limited (“FTTK”) the parties have not agreed on the closing in terms of the remaining 30 percent of the ownership and the dispute regarding this issue has been referred to arbitration. - The net sales of the continuing operations of Valoe for the reporting period January – December 2015 were EUR 0.7 million (EUR 0.8 million in 2014). The operating profit of continuing operations was EUR -2.8 million (EUR -10.9 million), profit for the period was EUR -3.9 million (EUR -11.7 million), earnings per share were EUR -0.005 (-0.014) and EBITDA was EUR -2.1 million (EUR -3.3 million). At the beginning of the corresponding period in 2014 the Beijing factory had still operations but the figures of the reporting period in 2015 include only the net sales of Valoe. - The Beijing factory has been closed and Valoe Group has no longer any future expectations relating to the factory in its balance sheet. However, the group balance sheet includes all of the debts of the Beijing subsidiary and the net debts total ca. EUR 3.9 million. Owing to the law and its application in China Valoe has alternative ways to close the Beijing subsidiary. By 30 June 2016 Valoe will decide how the company in Beijing will be closed. - The general meeting authorized the Board of Directors to issue 900,000,000 new company shares at the most. During the year 2015 the Board of Directors has issued a convertible bond and resolved to start preparing a share issue. The purpose of these actions was to acquire operating capital for the company and to secure sufficient equity until the company’s operations turn into profit. The total amount of the convertible bond was EUR 7,700,000 and the convertible bond was fully subscribed. The Board of Directors of Valoe approved all subscriptions on 9 October 2015. Out of the subscriptions a total of EUR 5.0 million were paid by setting the subscription price off against the subscribers’ receivables from the company. During the subscription period of the Convertible Bond new investments paid in cash amounting to ca. EUR 2.7 million, including the short-term loans taken by Valoe after the beginning of the subscription period and converted to the Convertible Bond, were made in the company. - Valoe’s financial situation continues to be tight. However, Valoe’s management views that the fully funded order for a module manufacturing plant from Ethiopia secured after the reporting period turns Valoe’s financial situation stable provided the company succeeds to arrange advance payment guarantee and financing for building period that are typical of export business. Valoe has to arrange advance payment guarantee that is typical of export business and financing of ca. EUR 2.0 – 4.0 million for building period from its suppliers and financers. More information on principle activities and events during and after the reporting period can be found in the stock exchange releases published on Valoe’s website at www.valoe.com. The Financial Statement Release has been drawn up in compliance with the IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting standard. In the Financial Statement Release Valoe has applied the same accounting principles as in its Annual Report 2014. The Financial Statement Release has not been audited. FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT Valoe transferred its electronics automation business to Cencorp Automation Oy and sold at first 70 percent and in December 2014 the remaining 30 percent of this company to FTTK. In terms of the latter 30 percent the transaction has not yet been closed and the dispute has been referred to arbitration. In FTTK’s request the claimant requests the arbitration to confirm that the transaction has been closed and the title to the shares has been transferred to FTTK as the purchase price has been fully paid. Valoe denies the claims as groundless and views that the transaction will not be closed until the other conditions pursuant to the the share transfer agreement have been fulfilled. Valoe will claim its legal costs and other possible damages in full from FTTK. The profit of EUR 0.276 million from the transaction between Valoe and FTTK was entered in the books in 2014. The figures of Cencorp Automation Oy have not been consolidated in Valoe’s financial reports in 2015. In Valoe’s financial reports the profit of discontinued operations (the LAS and LCM Segments that were sold to FTTK) is reported on a separate line. The group’s financial information is based on the management’s internal reporting and on the organisation structure of the company. On 31 December 2014 Valoe’s equity had decreased below half of the share capital. Thus, in the spring 2015 the Board of Directors convened a general meeting to consider measures to remedy the financial position of the company and to reduce the share capital among other things. The extraordinary general meeting authorized the Board of Directors to issue 900,000,000 new company shares at the most. Since then the Board of Directors has issued a convertible bond of EUR 7,700,000 that was fully subscribed and resolved to start preparing a share issue. Further, the company’s share capital has been decreased to EUR 80,000 pursuant to the resolution of the general meeting. Due to the successful Convertible Bond and decrease in the share capital Valoe’s equity ratio was ca. 21.7 per cent as per 31 December 2015. The figures in brackets are comparison figures for the corresponding period in 2014, unless stated otherwise. October – December 2015 (continuing operations i.e. the Clean Energy segment including the figures of the Beijing subsidiary) - Valoe Group’s net sales increased by 179.4 percent to EUR 0.2 million (In 2014: EUR 0.1 million). - EBITDA was EUR -1.3 million (EUR -1.1 million). - Operating profit was EUR -1.3 million (EUR -4.4 million). - The profit before taxes was EUR -1.9 million (EUR -4.7 million). - Profit for the period was EUR -1.9 million (EUR -4.7 million). January - December 2015 (continuing operations i.e. the Clean Energy segment including the figures of the Beijing subsidiary) - Valoe Group’s net sales decreased by 16.9 percent to EUR 0.7 million (In 2014: EUR 0.8 million including the component production of the Beijing factory during the first quarter). - EBITDA was EUR -2.1 million (EUR -3.3 million). - Operating profit was EUR -2.8 million (EUR -10.9 million). - The profit before taxes was EUR -3.9 million (EUR -11.7 million). - Profit for the period was EUR -3.9 million (EUR -11.7 million). - Earnings per share were EUR -0.005 (EUR -0.014) and diluted earnings per share EUR -0.005 (EUR -0.014). The profit for the corresponding year 2014 was decreased by write-downs of EUR 6.2 million done in the Beijing factory and its production equipment. The operating profit was decreased by a one-off cost of EUR 0.7 million that related to the Beijing factory and was booked on the last quarter of 2015. The cost was due to taxation of equipment imported in 2008 that was changed afterwards. Based on tax indemnity in the share and asset sale agreement between Valoe and Savcor Group Ltd, an Australian based company, done in 2009, this back tax belongs to the seller i.e. Savcor Group Ltd. This back tax has been invoiced from Savcor Group Ltd and a claim of EUR 0.7 million against Savcor Group Ltd has been booked in the other operating income of continuing operations in the first quarter of 2015. Negotiations regarding this claim and Valoe’s debt to Savcor Group Ltd, amounting to the claim, are continuing and the outcome of Valoe’s claim involves risks. MANAGING DIRECTOR IIKKA SAVISALO’S REVIEW On the reporting period Valoe focused on finalizing the first manufacturing partnership agreement and on sales relating to similar agreements. Although the deadline for local financing negotiations in Ethiopia were postponed several times, the first partnership agreement and related financing were agreed upon in February 2016 on expected terms mainly on line with Valoe’s quotation. On the fourth quarter of 2015 the company’s net sales remained low. The season for solar power plant deliveries in Finland slows down in late spring and on the last quarter of 2015 there was not as much market activities as on the two previous quarters. The company continued developing its production lines and deepened the cooperation with its cell manufacturing partner. Valoe’s cell supplier is one the biggest manufacturer of cells and modules in the world. Thanks to good cooperation Valoe has had better opportunities to test competitiveness of its module manufacturing recipe compared to H type modules that represent the current mainstream of produced modules in the world. The demand for solar energy seems to be continuing to grow on the Finnish market. This gives Valoe an opportunity to test sales and delivery models for modules and solar power plant technologies, at home. However, the production of Valoe’s plant in Mikkeli is not essential for the company’s growth regardless of the company’s success in Finland. The most substantial growth will be achieved if Valoe succeeds in selling several module manufacturing plants like the one sold in Ethiopia. According to Valoe’s strategy buyers of module manufacturing plants, who are Valoe’s manufacturing partners, start using Valoe’s components forming an ecosystem whose development and competitiveness Valoe will look after. Additionally Valoe will take care of an ecosystem’s technological and economic competitiveness by updating plants based on the latest research and experience. As Valoe has got the first manufacturing partner in its ecosystem the company has to increase the number of resources who are developing technologies for partners. Besides production lines Valoe is ready to provide its partners with Conductive Back Sheet (CBS) developed by the company. Thus securing sufficient and competitive CBS capacity is one of Valoe’s most important investment targets in the near future. In 2015 Valoe commenced a project aiming to optimize cells for back contact modules. The objective of the project is to develop features of cells used in back contact modules to produce best possible capacity compared to H type modules made of similar materials. Tekes, the Finnish Funding Agency for Innovation, granted Valoe a significant development loan of EUR 4 million, which secured financing for the project. In the long-term, Valoe will include in its offering technologies relating to energy storages and fuel cells according to the company’s strategy. As to the key competences in these technologies Valoe will be supported by its technology partners. On the reporting period Valoe, simultaneously with its Ethiopian and other projects, negotiated on a manufacturing partnership agreement for the North American market. Negotiations with the same partner are continuing. On the decentralized power plant market in North America retail business and consumers, in particular, prefer high efficiency modules with capacity more than 300 Wp. The price per peak efficiency of these modules is high and the markets are dominated by companies manufacturing high quality and expensive modules like SunPower, Panasonic and LG. In North America Valoe offers its partner modules with high quality N type cells that compete in the same capacity class with the modules manufactured by the above mentioned companies but are less expensive to produce. On the market, controlled by Asian manufacturers, Valoe’s manufacturing partners would also have the advantage of having modules produced in the region where they are sold, that is appreciated also in North America. Thanks to the high level of automation in Valoe’s technology labor costs would not be too high even in the USA. Additionally, Valoe has several negotiations for manufacturing partnership agreements going on around the world. VALOE’S STRATEGY The net sales of Valoe’s Clean Energy segment will be generated by the following four product concepts: 1. Photovoltaic modules and systems Sales of modules and small photovoltaic systems are probably Valoe’s most visible but in terms of revenue potential the smallest product group. All Valoe’s PV modules are manufactured at the company’s factory in Mikkeli for the time being. They are mainly delivered to the company’s distributors and future manufacturing partners. Further, the company provides solar power plants and systems to its customers in Finland and abroad. Valoe enhances the sale of its modules and solar systems in Finland by starting to build sales channels systematically. Current capacity of the company’s Mikkeli factory is designed to annually produce PV modules worth max EUR 6 – 8 million at the current market prices. Thus, the module sales do not form a major part of the sales of the company. The first module manufacturing recipes fully developed by Valoe has passed the demanding test programs of the German Fraunhofer ISE, which enables Valoe’s modules to be certified in all market areas the company is targeting. 2. Production lines and related components Typically, manufacturers operating on the developing markets, e.g. in China, could be interested in investing in new production lines. These Valoe’s potential customers are producing traditional stringed H-pattern modules. According to the information available to Valoe many manufacturers are going to start to manufacture next generation modules using the CBS technology. At least one of the world’s biggest manufacturers has already announced in public that it will start using CBS technology. These kinds of customers usually have their own module manufacturing recipe and require only production equipment or lines. According to Valoe’s estimation typical price of production equipment or a production line for solar modules is EUR 4 – 8 million. The company is having negotiations with several potential customers interested in Valoe’s production technology for delivering solar module plants, production lines or parts for the lines worldwide. The value of the contracts Valoe is negotiating for varies from approximately 2 million Euros to approximately 60 million Euros. Valoe received its first order for a module manufacturing plant from Ethiopia in February 2016. The value of the order totaled EUR 15.8 million. About EUR 9.5 million of the sales price will be paid in cash to Valoe and the rest of the sales price in shares of the customer company resulting in Valoe having a 30 percent shareholding in its Ethiopian manufacturing partner. If Valoe succeeds to achieve market position it is targeting as a supplier of CBS production lines, expected development on the market facilitates orders for tens of production lines in the next five years. 3. Manufacturing partners After having received the first manufacturing partnership agreement and the first order for a manufacturing plant in February 2016, Valoe continues negotiating for cooperation agreements with several potential manufacturing partners who as newcomers on the market would commit themselves to both Valoe’s production technology and module manufacturing recipe like the Ethiopian customer has done. Valoe provides a partner with a turnkey delivery project and commits to minority shareholding in a manufacturing company as was the case with the order from Ethiopia. Valoe’s shareholding is agreed to be 30 percent in Ethiopia. Manufacturing partners operate mainly on developing markets and produce solar energy modules for local and nearby markets. Value of a typical turnkey plant delivery is more than ten million euros. The value of the order from Ethiopia totaled EUR 15.8 million. Valoe is aiming to sign at least 10 manufacturing partnership contracts in the next five years. 4. Special components Special components are the most important part in Valoe’s strategy and most remarkable in terms of net sales potential. Valoe’s first component is Conductive Back Sheet (CBS) that has been developed by Valoe and is one of the most important components in a module. One normal size module production plant using back contact technology needs approximately 300,000 – 500,000 conductive back sheets in a year when operating at full capacity. Based on current estimation, considering price level in the near future, each production line will annually require back sheets worth approximately 5 – 11 million Euros. In the future Valoe is planning to offer its partners other components too. These components might include e.g. various intelligent components, components relating to energy storages and special back contact based cell technologies. OPERATING ENVIRONMENT Valoe operates in industries applying clean energy technology. Valoe’s operating environment is global. The company’s customers operating in the clean energy business are companies that provide products and services locally or worldwide. Valoe’s key products and services have been designed for the photovoltaic market. Modern next generation conductive back sheet based solar modules can be manufactured with Valoe’s own module manufacturing recipe and automated production. On the market, general attitude to the solar energy investments improved clearly already at the end of 2013. The same trend continued the whole year 2014 and still during 2015. Many solar module manufacturers with solid market position have started to plan investing in capacity, partly to increase the amount of their production capacity and partly to replace production capacity for old H-pattern solar modules. Valoe has previously announced that according to the company’s view the focus of its future business will be in the developing countries. The company’s view has strengthened during 2015 and the order from Ethiopia in February 2016 further strengthens this view. Many of the mega trends such as national climate protection objectives; increasing industrialisation in the developing countries and increasing energy self-sufficiency, favour local manufacturing of solar modules. For the moment major part of the world’s solar module manufacturing is concentrated in China. Modules are manufactured in large labour-intensive units and are delivered from there to the world market to be installed. In the developed countries solar electricity is mainly produced in large solar power plants located in open landscape feeding electricity to main grid. In this kind of power plants logistics costs, among others, can be optimized and such parameters as module’s capacity per square meter have not had major importance. In the developing countries logistics costs, in particular, are significant and demand is focused on so called mini grid systems where solar power plants have been decentralized and new local grid is built around them. Grids are connected to each other and to new small power plants as electricity consumption, distribution and production increases steadily. Electricity production is decentralized and electricity is distributed through a new type of grid infrastructure. Small power plants are often so called hybrids where solar power plants are operated together with diesel, water and wind power plants in same grid and where various energy storages can be integrated. In an environment described above a local producer has much better possibilities to control logistics costs and adopt legislation favouring local production. Many of the partners Valoe is negotiating with have noticed that local production costs are clearly lower than prices of modules imported from China. When modules are produced locally possibilities to control the quality increase, too. In Valoe’s view CBS based modules have typically solid quality which improves average module capacity in most of the cases. FINANCING Cash flow from business operations before investments in January – December was EUR -2.5 million (EUR -4.0 million). Trade receivables at the end of the reporting period were EUR 0.1 million (EUR 1.0 million). Net financial items amounted to EUR 1.1 million (EUR 0.8 million). At the end of December the equity ratio of Valoe Group was -193.7 percent (-130.9 %) and equity per share was EUR -0.014 (EUR -0.011). The equity ratio including capital loans was -100.0 percent (-88.9 %). At the end of the reporting period, the Group’s liquid assets totaled EUR 0.03 million (EUR 0.2 million) and unused export credit limits and bank guarantee limits amounted to EUR 0.0 million (EUR 0.0 million). The financing situation of Valoe has improved remarkably due to the successful Convertible Bond I/2015. However, the financing situation continues to be tight but according to the company’s management the EUR 15.8 million order received in February 2016, out of which EUR 9.5 million will be paid in cash, turns the company’s financing situation clearly more stable. However, this is subject to the company being able to arrange financing for building period and advance payment guarantee that are typical of export business and the order being delivered as agreed. Valoe and the Finnish Funding Agency for Innovation, Tekes have agreed on new funding for Valoe. Tekes gives Valoe a subsidized loan of ca. EUR 4 million to further develop photovoltaic modules and to develop solar cells based on the back contact technology. The loan can amount to max. 70 per cent of the project’s total costs which are estimated to be ca. EUR 5.8 million. The loan will be withdrawn in 2016 - 2019. The loan period is seven years. The company has planned to get long-term financing to finance the company’s growth by arranging a share issue. A share issue is planned to be directed to investors in Finland and abroad. The schedule of a possible share issue is not yet known. As the company has previously informed many negotiations for deliveries of production technology have made progress. Valoe’s financing situation continues to be tight at least until financing for building period for the order received from Ethiopia has been arranged and advance payment relating to the sale has been paid to Valoe. The payment terms of the order from Ethiopia Valoe quoted have been accepted as such. If the company is able to arrange financing for the delivery time the Ethiopian order will lead the cash flow from operations to turn positive and according to the management of the company no other bridging financing would be needed at that point. During the reporting period Valoe has agreed with Danske Bank Plc on extending the overdraft facility of EUR 0.95 million available to the company until 31 March 2016. Further, Valoe has agreed with Danske Bank Plc that the export credit limit of EUR 0.45 million will be repaid in installments by 31 March 2016. Valoe has agreed with Savcor Group Oy on extending the loan period of a convertible bond of ca. EUR 0.364 million until 31 March 2016. Out of Savcor Invest B.V.’s loan of EUR 1 million a total of ca. EUR 0.876, including interests, was converted to Valoe’s Convertible Bond I/2015 and the rest of the loan i.e. ca. EUR 0.324 million has been extended until 31 March 2016. SCI Invest Oy’s convertible bond of ca. EUR 0.841 million, including interests, has been converted to loan shares of Valoe’s Convertible Bond I/2015. In order to strengthen Valoe's capital structure the company resolved to issue a Convertible Bond of EUR 5,000,000 at the most at the end of May 2015. Due to oversubscription the maximum amount of the Convertible Bond was increased to EUR 7,700,000. The Convertible Bond was fully subscribed and the Board of Directors of Valoe approved all subscriptions on 9 October 2015. One loan share of EUR 0.01 pursuant to the Promissory Note entitles the Promissory Note Holder to subscribe for one new share. Based on the subscriptions made pursuant to the loan shares Valoe shall issue a maximum amount of 770,000,000 new Valoe shares. The loan period and the conversion period expire on 1 August 2018. Until financing and guarantee relating to the order from Ethiopia have been arranged Valoe’s financing situation continues to be tight and until then the sufficiency of the company’s financing and working capital for the next twelve months involve significant risks. Valoe’s financial and other risks have been handled in the item “Risk management, Risks and Uncertainties” of this Financial Statement Release. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT The knowledge and competence Valoe has gained so far and technological success of the company’s products have based on significant investments in the research and development. The module developed by Valoe and its production technology have already proven to be well functional and the targets set for the research and development have been exceeded. Also in the future, commercial success will highly depend on how well the research and development will succeed. The ca. EUR 4 million loan granted by Tekes in December 2015 enables Valoe to continue systematic research and development and to invest in development areas that fastest improve the company’s market position. Valoe’s strategically important products have already been tested and are functional. If Valoe succeeds in its research and development the company may obtain cell and module technology that further improves the competitiveness of Valoe’s products and services. The company continues to make significant investments in research and development and will utilize both national and European research funding to finance that also in the future. The Group’s research and development costs during the January – December period amounted to EUR 1.1 million (EUR 1.7 million) or 132.8 (25.7) percent of net sales. The research and development costs of the Group’s continuing operations during the January – December period totaled EUR 1.1 million (EUR 1.1 million) or 154.2 (131.8) percent of net sales. INVESTMENTS Gross investments in the continuing operations during January - December period amounted to EUR 0.4 million (EUR 0.4 million). The investments on the reporting period as well as on the corresponding period were mainly in development costs. PERSONNEL At the end of December the Group employed 20 (26) people, out of which 19 persons worked in Finland and 1 person in the USA. During the reporting period the Group’s salaries and fees totaled EUR 1.6 million (EUR 3.3 million). SHARES AND SHAREHOLDERS Valoe’s share capital amounted to EUR 80,000.00 at the end of the reporting period. The number of shares was 862,472,136. The company has one series of shares, which confer equal rights in the company. Valoe did not own any of its own shares at the end of the reporting period. The company had a total of 6,259 shareholders at the end of December 2015, and 20.3 percent of the shares were owned by foreigners.

THE MAJOR EVENTS SINCE THE END OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR 10 February 2016: VALOE RECEIVED A CA. EUR 15.8 MILLION ORDER FOR A SOLAR MODULE MANUFACTURING PLANT FROM ETHIOPIA On 29 June 2015 Valoe Corporation announced that it had concluded the business negotiations for the first manufacturing partnership agreement with a foreign customer, but that the sale of a module manufacturing plant was subject to local project financing that has now been secured. The main financer of the project is The Development Bank of Ethiopia. The order for a solar module manufacturing plant relating to a manufacturing partnership agreement totals ca. EUR 15.8 million. The plant will be delivered to Ethiopia during the year 2016. About EUR 9.5 million of the sales price will be paid in cash to Valoe and the rest of the sales price in shares of the customer company resulting in Valoe having a 30 percent shareholding in its Ethiopian manufacturing partner. The customer will secure the payment of the delivery with an irrevocable letter of credit from a solvent European bank. Valoe has to arrange advance payment guarantee that is typical of export business and financing of ca. EUR 2.0 – 4.0 million for building period from its suppliers and financers. The order from Ethiopia is the first order consistent with Valoe’s long-term strategy. During the negotiations Valoe has become more convinced that the strategic decisions it has made were right. Valoe has new and advanced technology. With the material Valoe has provided the company has convinced its customers and their financers of Valoe’s advanced technology as well as technical and commercial competence to support Valoe’s manufacturing partners also in the future. Iikka Savisalo, CEO, comments on the deal: ”The order Valoe received proves that new Finnish knowhow is valued. Valoe trusts the order will improve the company’s possibilities to meet its targets in the future and speed up the expansion of the company’s operations in the world.” The module manufacturing plant order involves business, financial and country risks that are typical of international equipment sales. RISK MANAGEMENT, RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Valoe’s Board of Directors is responsible for the control of the company’s accounts and finances. The Board is responsible for internal control, while the President and CEO handles the practical arrangement and monitors the efficiency of internal control. Business management and control are taken care of using a Group-wide reporting and forecasting system. The purpose of risk management is to ensure that any significant business risks are identified and monitored appropriately. The company’s business and financial risks are managed centrally by the Group’s financial department, and reports on risks are presented to the Board of Directors as necessary. Due to the small size of the company and its business operations, Valoe does not have an internal auditing organization or an audit committee. Valoe’s objective is to achieve a strong market position as a provider of, in various geographical areas, locally produced high-quality photovoltaic modules. Achievement of the objectives involves risks. Even though Valoe's strategy and objectives are based on market knowledge and technical surveys, the risks are significant and it is not certain if the company reaches all or part of the targets set for it. Valoe's future outlook will be highly dependent on the company's ability to reach the targeted market position in the global photovoltaic module market as well as on the company's financing. The Convertible Bond I/2015 enabled the company to stabilize its short-term financing remarkably. According to the management of the company the EUR 15.8 million order for a module manufacturing plant received from Ethiopia in 2016, out of which EUR 9.5 million will be paid in cash, turns the company’s cash flow from operations positive if the order is realized as planned. However, Valoe has to arrange advance payment guarantee, typical of export business, for the order and financing of ca. EUR 2.0 – 4.0 million for building period from its suppliers and financers. Until the afore said financing and guarantee have been arranged Valoe’s financing situation continues to be tight and until then the sufficiency of the company’s financing and working capital for the next twelve months involve very significant risks. If the company does not succeed to secure sufficient financing for the delivery time of the order from Ethiopia, the continuity of the company’s operation may be jeopardized. If the above mentioned financing and guarantee for the order from Ethiopia would be delayed or if the market situation gets worse it may take longer time to turn orders into revenue. This would affect significantly the schedule in which cash flow before investments would turn positive. In such a case the company’s financing situation would further tighten. In the Auditor’s Report in the Annual Report 2014 the company’s auditor drew attention to the financial risk management with a so called Emphasis of Matter as follows: “Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to the basis of preparation of the financial statements and to the note 29. Financial risk management. The financial statements have been prepared under the going concern assumption. The continuity of operations requires the company to be able to obtain supplementary funding and to negotiate changes to the terms of payment during 2015. The company continues negotiating with its major financers and shareholders on measures to strengthen the financing situation until the company’s cash flow is expected to turn positive. The sufficiency of the company’s financing and working capital for the next twelve months involve very significant risks. According to the current view of Valoe’s management the company needs to obtain a bridging loan until long-term financing arrangement has been secured and the cash flow of the business operations of the company has turned positive. Negotiations on bridging financing are going on. The company will have a significant deficit in its working capital until the first delivery of production technology for solar modules will start to generate positive cash flow. If the company does not succeed in securing sufficient short-term and long-term financing, the continuity of the company’s operation may be jeopardized. The valuation of the assets is based on the going concern assumption. If the estimates are not achieved the assets may become impaired.” The execution of the non-binding cooperation agreement signed between Valoe and Vikram Solar involves typical business risks. Arrangements pursuant to the non-binding cooperation agreement are subject to several terms and conditions, especially to Valoe’s financing. The execution of the non-binding Memorandum of Understanding signed with a Chinese photovoltaic module manufacturer involves significant risks. The final terms of an agreement are still under negotiations, thus execution of the agreement is not yet guaranteed. Additionally, the agreement is subject to Valoe's financing. The module manufacturing plant order from Ethiopia involves business, financial and country risks that are typical of international equipment sales. The certain statements in this release and especially the company’s financial guidance as well as non-binding estimations in Valoe’s strategy are targeted to the future and based on the management’s current estimations. They involve risks and uncertainty by their nature and may be affected by changes in general financial situation or business environment. Relating to taxation of the Beijing factory in China a claim of EUR 0.7 million against Savcor Group Ltd was booked in the other operating income of the company’s continuing operations in the first quarter of 2015. The outcome of the claim involves risks. The closing of the latter part (30 %) of the transaction between Valoe and FTTK Company Limited involves risks. In terms of the latter part of the transaction the deal was supposed to be closed by 1 March 2015, however, the closing of the transaction has been postponed. The postponement relates to a dispute between the parties relating to division of costs of unfinished customer projects. The dispute has been referred to arbitration on 24 June 2015. Other risks connected to Valoe have been presented in more detail in the Annual Report for 2014. MARKET OUTLOOK Valoe’s financial guidance for the year 2016 announced on 14 December 2015 remains unchanged. Valoe estimates that the net sales of Valoe Group will be ca. EUR 11 – 13 million in 2016 (2015: EUR 0.7 million) and the EBITDA ca. EUR 1.5 – 2.0 million (2015: EUR-2.1 million). The financial year 2016 is estimated to be profitable (2015: EUR –3.9 million). All comparison figures concern the continuing operations. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT Valoe applies the Finnish Corporate Governance Code approved by the Securities Market Association effective as of 1 October 2010. Valoe’s Corporate Governance Statement drawn in accordance with Recommendation 51 will be released on the week 11 of 2016 as a separate report. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ PROPOSAL CONCERNING THE DISTRIBUTION OF PROFIT The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that will be held on 11 May 2016 that no dividend from the financial year 2015 will be paid.
