LEMMINKÄINEN OYJ INTERIM FINANCIAL REVIEW 5.11.2009, 9:00 LEMMINKÄINEN'S INTERIM FINANCIAL REVIEW 1.1. - 30.9.2009: The business result for the third quarter was good, especially in infrastructure construction Summary for January-September 2009 (comparative figures 1-9/2008): - Net sales fell 17 % to EUR 1,444.8 million (1,739.3) - Operations abroad accounted for 28 % or EUR 402.4 million (485.2) of net sales. - The operating profit was EUR 11.0 million (85.7). The operating margin (operating profit / net sales) was 0.8 % (2.9). The operating profit was impaired by a EUR 54 million charge stemming from the competition infringement fine imposed by the Supreme Administrative Court. Excluding the charge, the operating profit would have been EUR 65 million and the operating margin 4.5 %. - The result before taxes was EUR +14.4 million (2.73) - Earnings per share were EUR -1.52 (2.73) - Cash flow from operating activities was EUR -3.5 million (-188.1) - The equity ratio was 24.6 % (24.4) and gearing 130.2 % (161.8) - The order book at the end of the review period was down by a quarter at EUR 1,002.7 million (1,341.4) - Operations abroad accounted for 28 % or EUR 277.5 million (378.5) of the order book Summary for July-September 2009 (comparative figures 7-9/2008): - Net sales were EUR 563.2 million (648.5) - The operating profit was EUR -10.5 million (53.6) and the operating margin (operating profit / net sales) was 1.9 % (8.3) - The result before taxes was EUR -16.8 million (48.6) - Earnings per share were EUR -1.44 (2.03) - Cash flow from operating activities was EUR 67.1 million (-13.5) July-September 2009 by business sector: In the building construction sector, housing sales totalled 252 units (Q2/09: 171) in Finland and 31 units (Q2/09: 28) in Russia. Lemminkäinen resumed its own housing production due to the pick-up in the housing market. In addition to this, rental housing construction continued to be brisk. No significant commercial property deals occurred during the third quarter. In the infrastructure construction sector, the paving season was busier than expected both in Finland and in other Nordic countries. The volume of business in the third quarter was unchanged from the level of the previous year, and the operating profit was 14% up on Q3 2008. In the technical building service sector, net sales and profitability developed better than expected, and the order book has started to grow cautiously in spite of intensified competition. In the building products sector, the summer was busier than expected for roofing contracting, and the share of urban environment construction has remained at the previous year's level. The pick-up in housing construction has also boosted demand for pre-cast concrete elements. President & CEO Timo Kohtamäki: ”The third quarter of the year is customarily Lemminkäinen's strongest, and despite the recession, it was again this year from the standpoint of business performance. The briskness of the paving business both in Finland and in other Nordic countries even exceeded expectations. The pick-up in housing sales signals a positive turning point in residential construction. We have already given the green light for starts to be made on 314 housing units in our own housing developments. A particularly positive aspect of the third quarter was the cash flow from operating activities, which was about EUR 80 million up on the same period last year. On 29 September 2009 the Supreme Administrative Court ordered a number of Finnish asphalt industry companies to pay an infringement fine of EUR 82.55 million, of which Lemminkäinen's share is EUR 68 million. The infringement fine was a severe blow to Lemminkäinen, and it has a significant bearing on the result for the review period. The Company's business has developed favourably considering the depressed state of the economy, and we will cope with the burden of paying this fine. We believe that our customers will continue to show confidence in the quality of our expertise and actions going forward. The outlook for Lemminkäinen over the remainder of the year is satisfactory, despite the fact that business conditions in the fourth quarter will be challenging and adjustment measures will have to be continued in all business sectors. Lemminkäinen has adjusted its strategy to meet the challenges of the future, and new business plans have been drawn up for the next four years. We will be providing further information on these plans in a separate bulletin today.” Outlook for 2009 Lemminkäinen reiterates its earlier guidance, according to which the Group's full-year net sales will fall well short of the 2008 level. As a consequence of the infringement fine imposed by the Supreme Administrative Court, the Company's result for the 2009 accounting period will be clearly negative. Briefing A Finnish-language briefing for analysts and the media will be held at 10.00 a.m. on Thursday, 5 November at Lemminkäinen's head office. The street address is Salmisaarenaukio 2, Helsinki, Finland. The interim financial review will be presented by President & CEO Timo Kohtamäki. Presentation material concerning the result for the review period will be made available on the Company's website at www.lemminkainen.com LEMMINKÄINEN CORPORATION Corporate Communications ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Timo Kohtamäki, President & CEO, tel. +358 2071 53263 Robert Öhman, CFO, tel. +358 2071 53515 Merja Paulamäki, Investor Relations, tel. +358 2071 53367 APPENDICES: Interim Financial Review 1.1. - 30.9.2009 Tabulated Section of the Interim Financial Review DISTRIBUTION: OMX Nordic Exchange Helsinki Key media www.lemminkainen.com INTERIM FINANCIAL REVIEW 1.1. - 30.9.2009 OPERATING ENVIRONMENT Operations in Finland The volume of construction is expected to contract by 12 % in 2009. The contraction is most evident in the number of new building starts, which is indicative of a further decline in volume. The emphasis in residential construction has shifted to rental housing production. Sales of housing units have picked up significantly since the end of last year, and the volume of Lemminkäinen's own housing production has started to rise cautiously. Altogether 20,000 housing starts are expected to be made in Finland this year, half of which will be state-subsidised housing production. Next year the number of housing starts is expected to rise to 23,000 units (Source: Confederation of Finnish Construction Industries, RT). In the non-residential construction sector, demand for commercial and logistics construction has held up at a reasonable level, but the construction of office and industrial buildings has declined substantially during 2009. Finnish real estate investors have continued to invest in properties all over Finland (Source: Confederation of Finnish Construction Industries, RT). The volume of infrastructure construction is expected to decline by 2 % in 2009, and to remain at that level throughout the following year (Source: Confederation of Finnish Construction Industries, RT). Furthermore, the order books of infra contractors will be impacted by significantly reduced demand for foundation engineering works on the building construction side of the sector. The emphasis in technical building services has shifted to refurbishment contracting, partly as a result of government grants for building repair and renovation. Demand for the servicing and maintenance of technical building systems has remained stable. Refurbishment contracting is expected to grow only slightly this year. The duration of the government's building repair assistance scheme for housing companies was extended, and refurbishment contracting is expected to grow by about 2 % next year (Source: Confederation of Finnish Construction Industries, RT). Competition in all construction sectors continues to be fierce. Operations abroad In Scandinavia, government stimulus measures have kept the market situation at a reasonable level. In Norway and Denmark, demand for paving works has been good. In Sweden, new rock and geotechnical engineering projects are still pending. The construction market in the Baltic states continues to be challenging, especially in Latvia. Development of the road network in the Baltic states is continuing with EU funding. In Russia, housing sales picked up towards the end of the review period, but economic uncertainty prevails, as it does in other European countries. NET SALES Lemminkäinen's net sales for the January-September period were down 17 % on last year at EUR 1,444.8 million (1,739.3). Net sales fell in all of the Group's business sectors, with the biggest declines in building construction and building products. Lemminkäinen generated 72 % of its net sales in Finland, 17 % in other Nordic countries, 4 % in Russia, and 7 % in other countries. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Net sales by | 7-9/200 | 7-9/2008 | 1-9/2009 | 1-9/2008 | 1-12/2008 | | business sector, | 9 | | | | | | EUR million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Building | 174.7 | 207.8 | 606.8 | 780.5 | 1 207.5 | | construction | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Infrastructure | 310.5 | 346.6 | 610.7 | 698.1 | 920.3 | | construction | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Technical building | 52.6 | 68.8 | 168.6 | 193.4 | 269.9 | | services | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Building products | 42.6 | 51.0 | 99.0 | 121.8 | 156.0 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Other operations and | -6.0 | -16.4 | -25.0 | -38.7 | -52.2 | | Group eliminations | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Business sectors, | 574.5 | 657.8 | 1 460.1 | 1 775.1 | 2 501.5 | | total | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Unallocated Items | -11.3 | -9.3 | -15.2 | -15.9 | -19.7 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Group total (IFRS), | 563.2 | 648.5 | 1 444.8 | 1 739.3 | 2 481.8 | | of which | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operations abroad | 179.1 | 202.7 | 402.4 | 485.2 | 676.7 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OPERATING PROFIT Lemminkäinen's operating profit for the January-September period was EUR 11.0 million (85.7), which was considerably weaker than in the same period last year. The operating profit was impaired especially by an infringement fine of EUR 68 million imposed by the Supreme Administrative Court. EUR 54 million of this fine was expensed in the third quarter of the year. The infringement fine of EUR 14 million previously ordered by the Market Court was expensed in the fourth quarter of 2007. Excluding the effect of the infringement fine, operating profit was down by about a quarter on the same period last year. Lemminkäinen's operating loss in the July-September period was EUR 10.5 million, compared with an operating profit of EUR 53.6 million in the third quarter of last year. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating profit by | 7-9/200 | 7-9/2008 | 1-9/2009 | 1-9/2008 | 1-12/2008 | | business sector, EUR | 9 | | | | | | million | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Building | 0.5 | 14.6 | 21.6 | 34.1 | 69.7 | | construction | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Infrastructure | 34.6 | 30.3 | 30.9 | 31.0 | 26.2 | | construction | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Technical building | 3.8 | 5.4 | 9.0 | 12.7 | 16.3 | | services | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Building products | 4.7 | 5.9 | 5.5 | 9.2 | 10.5 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Other operations | -56.0 | -1.3 | -58.3 | -3.2 | -3.3 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Business sectors, | -12.2 | 54.8 | 8.7 | 83.8 | 119.4 | | total | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Unallocated Items | 1.7 | -1.2 | 2.3 | 1.9 | 3.8 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Group total (IFRS) | -10.5 | 53.6 | 11.0 | 85.7 | 123.2 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating margin by | 7-9/200 | 7-9/2008 | 1-9/2009 | 1-9/2008 | 1-12/2008 | | business sector | 9 | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Building | 0.3 | 7.0 | 3.6 | 4.4 | 5.8 | | construction | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Infrastructure | 11.2 | 8.7 | 5.1 | 4.4 | 2.8 | | construction | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Technical building | 7.3 | 7.8 | 5.3 | 6.5 | 6.1 | | services | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Building products | 11.1 | 11.5 | 5.5 | 7.6 | 6.7 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Group total (IFRS) | -1.9 | 8.3 | 0.8 | 4.9 | 5.0 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ORDER BOOK Lemminkäinen's order book at the end of September was EUR 1,002.7 million (1,341.4).

The return on investment was 3.1 % (11.0) and the equity ratio 24.6 % (24.4). Gearing was 130.2 % (161.8). According to the cash flow statement, the cash flow from operating activities in the January-September period was EUR -3.5 million (-188.1), the cash flow from investing activities EUR -15.2 million (-30.8) and the cash flow from financing activities EUR -108.4 million (234.7). The cash flow for the review period includes the payment of dividends totalling EUR 18.0 million (32.6) for the 2008 accounting period. In the July-September period the cash flow from operating activities was EUR 67.1 million (Q3/08: -13.5), the cash flow from investing activities EUR 1.1 million (Q3/08: -7.0) and the cash flow from financing activities EUR -58.1 million (Q3/08: 38.8). Net working capital in the review period was EUR 883.8 million (1,101.1) and net working capital EUR 409.4 million (602.1). The amount of capital tied up in housing and non-residential construction in progress is down on the previous year, but it remains a significant item. Liquid funds at the end of the review period were EUR 121.1 million (94.2). The amount of interest-bearing debt at the end of the review period was EUR 508.6 million (637.6), of which EUR 450.2 million was short-term debt and EUR 58.4 million long-term debt. Interest-bearing net debt was EUR 387.5 million (543.4). Net financing expenses were EUR 25.4 million (17.6), representing 1.8 % (1.0) of net sales. Financing expenses were increased by wider loan margins as well as foreign exchange rate movements and currency hedging costs in Russia and the Baltic states. Lemminkäinen's interest-bearing debt comprised loans from financial institutions 42 %, commercial paper 10 %, project loans related to own housing production and non-residential construction 16 %, TyEL loans 18 %, finance leasing liabilities 11 % and other debts 3 %. EUR 54 million of the EUR 68 million fine imposed by the Supreme Administrative Court was recognised on the income statement under “Other operating expenses” in the review period. The recognition of this expense resulted in a loan covenant concerning the ratio of net debt to EBITDA being breached. Consequently, Lemminkäinen's overall debt position was restructured in accordance with IFRS standards so that the emphasis was shifted from short-term to long-term liabilities. As a consequence the covenant breach, Lemminkäinen has entered into negotiations with its banking consortium concerning new covenant limits. The Company expects that an agreement on new covenant limits will soon be reached. The EUR 150 million line of credit made available to Lemminkäinen as part of the financing arrangements agreed in June remains unused at the end of the review period. In addition to this credit facility, the Company has an unused TyEL pension premium loan allocation of approximately EUR 23 million. BUSINESS SECTORS BUILDING CONSTRUCTION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Key figures, EUR | 7-9/200 | 7-9/2008 | 1-9/2009 | 1-9/2008 | 1-12/2008 | | million | 9 | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Net sales | 174.7 | 207.8 | 606.8 | 780.5 | 1 207.5 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating profit | 0.5 | 14.6 | 21.6 | 34.1 | 69.7 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating margin, % | 0.3 | 7.0 | 3.6 | 4.4 | 5.8 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Profit before taxes | -3.4 | 11.6 | 12.2 | 26.0 | 56.7 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Order book at end of | | | 489.4 | 747.9 | 576.3 | | period | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The net sales of the building construction business sector in the January-September period were weaker than in Q1-Q3 last year. The business sector generated 81 % of its net sales in Finland, 5 % in Russia, 7 % in other Nordic countries, and 7 % in other countries. The business sector's production in the third quarter remained at the H1 level. Fewer commercial property sales were made in the third quarter than in the first half of the year, which partly explains the reduction in net sales and operating profit. In addition, third-quarter contracted production was below average. The business sector's order book at the end of the review period was slightly lower than at the end of June. Operations in Finland: Sales of housing units were brisker than expected, and 546 (534) units in Lemminkäinen's own housing developments were sold during the January-September period. Lemminkäinen completed 230 (304) units in its own housing developments during the review period. As a consequence of the pick-up in the housing market, the Company resumed its own housing production during the third quarter. New starts were made on a total of 195 (504) housing units during the review period as a whole. At the end of September, 263 (882) housing units were under construction, of which 148 were unsold. The number of unsold completed housing units was 377 (443). There was a marked increase in the number of contracted housing starts, with new starts being made on 685 housing units in 2009. At the end of the review period Lemminkäinen owned a total of 890,000 m2 of unused building rights in Finland, of which almost half were residential building rights. The value of the building plots was approx. EUR 92 million. Lemminkäinen is to build housing in the Jätkäsaari district of Helsinki, where the City of Helsinki will lease the Company one plot for the private-sector production of rental housing and two plots for the private-sector production of owner-occupied housing subject to the price and quality controls of the Hitas scheme. The City will also sell four plots to the Company for its own housing developments. The building plots in the Saukonpaasi area of Jätkäsaari have almost 40,000 square metres of building rights, enabling the construction of about 400 housing units. Work will begin on the construction of private-sector rental housing in autumn 2010. Earlier this year Lemminkäinen announced that it was starting to build housing on Paulig's old roastery site in the Vuosaari district of Helsinki, which has been zoned as a residential area for approximately 2,000 inhabitants. Non-residential construction has slowed down over the past twelve months, and demand for office construction in particular has been minimal. During the review period Lemminkäinen made an agreement on the construction of a new office building for the Finnish Agency for Rural Affairs in Seinäjoki during the years 2009-2011. Lemminkäinen agreed the sale of the building to Etera Mutual Pension Insurance Company. The market for refurbishment contracting remained stable. The government's stimulus measures have boosted demand for building repair works to some extent. Refurbishment contracting accounted for about 17 % of Lemminkäinen's building construction business in the review period. Lemminkäinen is to carry out basic repair and refurbishment works on Kiinteistö Oy Julininkulma, which is a six-storey commercial building in downtown Turku. Work will begin in December 2009 and the total value of the contract is approx. EUR 9 million. After the end of the review period Lemminkäinen released a bulletin describing major replumbing and bathroom refurbishment works in the old Vuosaari district of Helsinki. The contracts involve refurbishing the bathrooms of 840 units as well as replumbing their water and sewer pipes. Operations abroad: Housing sales in Russia have been considerably brisker than last year. Lemminkäinen sold 81 (51) units in its own housing developments during the January-September period. At the end of the review period the Company had 323 (570) housing units under construction, of which 181 were unsold. There were no unsold completed units at the end of the review period After the end of the review period Lemminkäinen resumed work on the previously suspended construction of 264 housing units in Russia. At the end of the review period Lemminkäinen had EUR 33 million of capital tied up in Russia. In Sweden the Company had 68 (80) units under construction in its own housing developments at the end of the review period. Of these, 16 were unsold. The number of unsold completed units was 2. In the January-September period Lemminkäinen sold 20 housing units in Sweden. In telecommunications network construction a transition to more-energy-efficient network solutions is expected, which may boost demand for new network construction in the near future. During the review period Lemminkäinen made an agreement on the construction of 90 base stations for a local operator in Zimbabwe. The project will be carried out in consortium with an African supplier. INFRASTRUCTURE CONSTRUCTION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Key figures, EUR | 7-9/200 | 7-9/2008 | 1-9/2009 | 1-9/2008 | 1-12/2008 | | million | 9 | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Net sales | 310.5 | 346.6 | 610.7 | 698.1 | 920.3 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating profit | 34.6 | 30.3 | 30.9 | 31.0 | 26.2 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating margin, % | 11.2 | 8.7 | 5.1 | 4.4 | 2.8 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Profit before taxes | 31.8 | 27.2 | 21.5 | 25.7 | 16.8 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Order book at end of | | | 389.6 | 446.2 | 365.4 | | period | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The net sales of the infrastructure construction business sector in the January-September period were down 13 % at EUR 610.7 million (698.1). The business sector generated 54 % of its net sales in Finland, 33 % in other Nordic countries, and 10 % in the Baltic states. The operating margin (operating profit / net sales) has increased markedly from last year's level. The profitability trend in the third quarter was also better than in the same period last year. The business sector's result was adversely impacted by currency hedging costs in the Baltic states especially. The order book at the end of the review period was down on the previous year. Operations in Finland: The development of Lemminkäinen's paving operations in the third quarter was in line with expectations, and the volume of business remained at the level of the previous year. However, the price level of asphalt paving remained low and competition became more intense. The deteriorating state of municipal finances did not impact on the work situation during the review period. Transport infrastructure construction has picked up with the launch of major projects in 2009-2011, and Lemminkäinen is now preparing bids for selected contracts. Even so, competition remains fierce due to prevailing overcapacity in the sector. The rock and geotechnical engineering market has remained good, and bids are being prepared for a number of new projects. Lemminkäinen was selected to carry out the lead contract of the Western Metro construction project. The contract is worth approx. EUR 10 million and work will begin in November 2009. After the end of the review period Lemminkäinen was awarded the contract for the construction of the eastern mouth of the tunnel for the Ring Rail Line in Vantaa. Construction work will begin in December 2009 and will be completed in 2012. The contract is worth approx. EUR 14 million. The slowdown in building construction has reduced sales of mineral aggregates and ready-mix concrete. However, demand for crushing contracting has been reasonable, considering the state of the market. The rise in prices of basic metals is rekindling interest in mining projects planned for Finland, opening up opportunities for all segments of the infrastructure construction sector. Lemminkäinen is involved in two notable on-going mine excavation projects. Operations abroad: In Norway and Denmark demand for paving works has been brisker than expected in the review period, even though the effects of strong stimulus measures introduced by the governments of both countries will not show up until future years. Both production volume and business profitability have been better than expected. In Sweden, Lemminkäinen is currently working on several tunnel construction contracts, the last of which are due to be completed next year. The market for major infrastructure projects in Sweden has remained particularly good during the review period, and a number of new rock engineering projects are still pending. During the review period Lemminkäinen started a geotechnical engineering project that involves improving the stability of reinforced concrete dams at Storfinnefors and Ramsele in Sweden The contract will last until 2012 and is worth approx. EUR 10 million. The infrastructure construction market in the Baltic states has remained weak. In spite of this, Lemminkäinen's order book in Estonia and Lithuania has held up at a satisfactory level, and bids for new contracts are still being prepared. Development of the road network in the Baltic states is continuing with EU funding, which is supporting the infrastructure construction markets of these countries. TECHNICAL BUILDING SERVICES -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Key figures, EUR | 7-9/200 | 7-9/2008 | 1-9/2009 | 1-9/2008 | 1-12/2008 | | million | 9 | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Net sales | 52.6 | 68.8 | 168.6 | 193.4 | 269.9 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating profit | 3.8 | 5.4 | 9.0 | 12.7 | 16.3 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating margin, % | 7.3 | 7.8 | 5.3 | 6.5 | 6.1 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Profit before taxes | 3.9 | 6.0 | 9.5 | 14.2 | 18.5 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Order book at end of | | | 90.3 | 109.5 | 97.7 | | period | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The profitability of the technical building services business sector in the July-September period was weaker than in Q3 last year, but still exceeded expectations given the state of the market. Q3 net sales were 13 % weaker than in the second quarter, but profitability remained at the previous year's level. With less activity in new building construction, the emphasis in technical building services has shifted to refurbishment contracting and servicing and maintenance work. Competition in the sector continues to be fierce, and regional differences are marked. In spite of this, the business sector's order book has started to grow cautiously and demand is expected to remain stable for the remainder of the year. Energy efficiency management and special expertise in areas such as refrigeration maintenance and installation have become significant competitive factors in the sector. In the third quarter a continuation agreement was made with Oy Teboil Ab concerning the maintenance and servicing of technical building systems at Teboil service stations. The scope of the agreement includes about 450 distribution points all over Finland. After the end of the review period Lemminkäinen agreed three significant technical building services contracts in Ostrobothnia. The combined value of the contracts is approx. EUR 12 million and they will be carried out in 2009-2012. In addition, also after the end of the review period, Lemminkäinen and Ilmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance Company extended their comprehensive, long-term partnership agreement concerning real estate services. The agreement covers the servicing and maintenance of technical systems in office and commercial properties in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area as well as management services related to their day-to-day operation.

Lemminkäinen was also successful in increasing its market share during the review period. The emphasis in construction has shifted further towards refurbishment contracting. For example, the volume of yard and roofing repair works for housing companies increased during the review period thanks to the government's building repair grants. Government support for residential construction has stimulated the construction of housing, which has boosted demand for pre-cast concrete elements in particular. The share of urban environment construction has remained almost at the level of the previous year, even though there has been a further intensification of competition. SHARES AND SHARE CAPITAL The listed price of Lemminkäinen Corporation's share was EUR 13.05 (31.50) at the beginning of the January and EUR 26.50 (18.80) at the end of September. The market capitalisation at the end of the review period was EUR 451.1 million (320.0). Altogether 1,237,703 shares (2,666,508) were traded during the review period. The total value of the turnover was EUR 24.1 million (79.5). At the end of the review period the Company had 4,824 (4,291) shareholders. Lemminkäinen's share capital is EUR 34,042,500. The Company has one share series and the total number of issued shares is 17,021,250. After the end of the review period Lemminkäinen's Board of Directors decided to convene an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company's shareholders. The EGM will be held on 12 November 2009. The Board of Directors will propose to the EGM that the Board of Directors be authorised to decide on a share issue and/or an issue of special rights entitling their holders to shares as referred to in Chapter 10, Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act. The number of shares to be issued, including the shares to be received on the basis of special rights, shall not exceed 4,200,000 shares. The proposed maximum amount of the authorisation corresponds to approximately 25 % of all the current shares of the Company. The Board of Directors may decide to issue either new shares or own shares that may be held by the company (treasury shares). The Board of Directors will also propose to the Extraordinary General Meeting that the Board of Directors be authorised to decide on the acquisition of treasury shares, in one or more instalments, using the unrestricted shareholders' equity of the Company. The authorisation is proposed to cover a maximum of 1,700,000 treasury shares, subject to the regulations of the Finnish Companies Act concerning the maximum amount of own shares that may be held by a company. The proposed maximum amount of the authorisation corresponds to approximately 10 % of all the current shares of the Company. INVESTMENTS Investments made during the review period amounted to EUR 32.4 million (49.2). The investments were mainly replacement purchases of equipment for paving and mineral aggregate operations. PERSONNEL The average number of employees in the Group during the review period was 8,761 (9,845), of whom 69 % worked in Finland, 13% in other Nordic countries, 11% in the Baltic states and 7 % in other countries. The personnel reduction measures started in the second half of 2008 have so far affected about 1,200 employees. The biggest personnel reductions have been made in the building construction and building products business sectors. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Personnel, average | 1-9/2009 | 1-9/2008 | 1-12/2008 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Hourly paid employees | 5,645 | 6,570 | 6,490 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Salaried staff | 3,116 | 3,275 | 3,286 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Personnel, total, of whom | 8,761 | 9,845 | 9,776 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Working abroad | 2,685 | 2,814 | 2,836 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Personnel at the end of the | 9,010 | 10,364 | 8,910 | | review period | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Wages, salaries and other | 241.2 | 258.3 | 358.1 | | remuneration, EUR million | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Personnel by business sector, | 1-9/2009 | 1-9/2008 | 1-12/2008 | | average | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Building construction | 2,414 | 3,238 | 3,159 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Infrastructure construction | 3,511 | 3,641 | 3,658 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Technical building services | 1,958 | 2,011 | 2,013 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Building products | 764 | 849 | 839 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Parent company | 114 | 106 | 107 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Total | 8,761 | 9,845 | 9,776 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AGM DECISIONS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Lemminkäinen Corporation's Annual General Meeting held on 17 March 2009 adopted the Company's annual accounts and financial statements for 2008 and granted the CEO and the members of the Board of Directors discharge from liability. The Annual General Meeting decided, in accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal, to pay a dividend of EUR 0.90 per share, i.e. a total dividend of EUR 15,319,125. The dividend's record date was 20 March 2009 and the payment date was 27 March 2009. Messrs. Berndt Brunow, Teppo Taberman, Juhani Mäkinen and Ms. Kristiina Pentti-von Walzel were re-elected to serve as members of the Board of Directors. Messrs. Mikael Mäkinen, M.Sc.(Eng.) and Heikki Räty, M.Sc.(Econ.) were newly elected to serve as board members.

Lemminkäinen Corporation's Board of Directors held an organising meeting on 17 March 2009. Berndt Brunow continues to serve as the Chairman of the Board, and Juhani Mäkinen as the Vice Chairman. The compositions of the Audit Committee, Nominating Committee and Remuneration and Appointments Committee were decided at the meeting. The Board of Directors elected Heikki Räty to serve as the Chairman of the Audit Committee, with Juhani Mäkinen and Kristina Pentti-von Walzel serving as members. Berndt Brunow was elected to serve as the Chairman of the Nominating Committee, with Kristina Pentti-von Walzel and Teppo Taberman serving as members. Teppo Taberman was elected to serve as the Chairman of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, with Berndt Brunow and Mikael Mäkinen serving as members. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On 30 September 2009 the Supreme Administrative Court (SAC) ordered a number of Finnish asphalt industry companies to pay an infringement fine of EUR 82.55 million, of which Lemminkäinen is to pay EUR 68 million. The decision settled finally the Finnish Competition Authority's claim made in 2004 for the imposition of a fine concerning violations of the Act on Competition Restrictions on seven companies operating in the asphalt industry during the period 1994-2002. The Finnish Competition Authority originally proposed that a total competition infringement fine of EUR 97 million should be imposed on the asphalt companies and the Finnish Asphalt Association, of which Lemminkäinen was to pay EUR 68 million. In December 2007 the Market Court dismissed the Competition Authority's motion for the most part and ordered the asphalt companies to pay an infringement fine of EUR 19.4 million, of which Lemminkäinen was to pay EUR 14 million. The difference between the infringement fine of EUR 68 million ordered by the SAC and the infringement fine of EUR 14 million ordered by the Market Court (EUR 54 million) was expensed in the third quarter of 2009. The infringement fine of EUR 14 million ordered by the Market Court was expensed in the fourth quarter of 2007. Certain municipalities have announced in statements of claim submitted to the District Court of Helsinki that they will claim for damages from Lemminkäinen and other asphalt companies if the SAC finds that the asphalt companies have acted in breach of competition legislation within their municipal boundaries. The claims presented in the statements of claim differ from each other as regards their amounts and grounds. In addition, the Finnish Road Administration has claimed, in connection with work carried out for the Finnish State, at most EUR 10.5 million from Lemminkäinen and at most EUR 5.6 million jointly and severally with other asphalt companies. The decision rendered by the SAC will probably initiate the consideration of claims for damages in the District Court of Helsinki to the extent that the Finnish Road Administration and the municipalities regard that the decision of the SAC warrants such action. Lemminkäinen initially considers the claims presented by the municipalities and the Finnish Road Administration as unfounded. Furthermore, the decision rendered by the SAC does not concern individual contracts or their pricing. Claims for damages will be considered separately before the District Court of Helsinki and heard in the order determined by the court. No provision for future expense has been made in respect of the statements of claims submitted so far by the municipalities and the Finnish Road Administration. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Lemminkäinen's business risks are divided into six categories: market risks, project risks, financing risks, credit loss risks, environmental risks, and accidents and damage. The measures necessary to manage the most significant identified risks have been specified. Market risk poses the most significant threat to Lemminkäinen in the near future. The international financial crisis and economic downturn are creating uncertainty in key sectors of Lemminkäinen's operating environment and making it more difficult to foresee future changes. As a consequence of this, Lemminkäinen has set about making the necessary adjustments to its business operations. Although housing sales have developed favourably, the general economic situation is still unstable. For this reason new housing starts are being made only if a sufficiently high percentage of the units are reserved by buyers in advance. The aforementioned statements of claim submitted to the District Court of Helsinki by certain municipalities and the Finnish Road Administration pose a specific risk. Operating in a number of business sectors with differing cyclical behaviours is a cornerstone of Lemminkäinen's strategy. Fluctuating demand for new construction in Finland is counterbalanced by infrastructure construction. Building repair and maintenance account for more than a third of the Group's business. The Company's Annual Report and website provide more information on Lemminkäinen's risk management. Outlook for 2009 Lemminkäinen reiterates its earlier guidance, according to which the Group's full-year net sales will fall well short of the 2008 level. As a consequence of the infringement fine imposed by the Supreme Administrative Court, the Company's result for the 2009 accounting period will be clearly negative. Helsinki, 5 November 2009 LEMMINKÄINEN CORPORATION Board of Directors TABULATED SECTION OF THE INTERIM FINANCIAL REVIEW ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES This interim financial review has been prepared in accordance with the same IFRS recognition and measurement principles as those applied in the annual financial statements for 2008 with the below-mentioned changes. As the tabulated section is presented in abridged format, not all of the requirements of the IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting Standard have been observed in the preparation of the review. The information contained in the interim financial review has not been audited. Standards and interpretations adopted from the beginning of 2009 - IAS 1 (Revised), Presentation of Financial Statements. The aim of the standard is to improve users' ability to analyse and compare the information given in financial statements by separating changes in equity of an entity arising from transactions with owners from other changes in equity. Changes unrelated to owners are presented in the statement of comprehensive income. - IFRS 8 Segment Reporting. The standard requires that reportable segment information be based on internal segment reports that are reviewed by management. Lemminkäinen is reporting its interim financial reviews from the beginning of the 2009 accounting period in compliance with IFRS 8 Operating Segments. Adoption of the standard has no effect on the number or composition of Lemminkäinen Group's operating segments, but it does change the content of the segment information. The standard has no effect on geographical segment information. The segment information reported to management is generally prepared according to the same principles as those applied in the consolidated financial statements. Imputed items are not considered in segment reporting. Such items include, among others, depreciation of assets acquired by finance leasing, interest separated from payments, warranty provisions, and unrealised gains or losses on derivatives. In segment reporting to management, finance leasing arrangements are treated as ordinary rental agreements, which deviates from the accounting principles of IFRS financial statements. Affiliated companies are combined in segment reporting in proportion to ownership share using the line-by-line method. In IFRS financial statements affiliated companies are combined by the equity method. In segment reporting, intersegment sales are not allocated to segments, owing to their minimal magnitude, and are not reported to management. Comparative figures for segment reporting have been published in a separate release on 5 May 2009. - IAS 23 (Revised) Borrowing Costs. The amended standard requires an entity to capitalise borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset as part of the cost of that asset. The immediate expensing of such borrowing costs is prohibited. Starting from 1 January 2009, the Group capitalises the borrowing costs in qualifying projects and in projects where income is recognised on the basis of percentage of completion. An assessment indicates that the following interpretations and standards have no essential bearing on Lemminkäinen Group's interim financial review: IAS 32 (Amendment), IFRS 2, IFRIC 11, IFRIC 13, IFRIC 14 and IFRIC 16. Effects of new interpretations of IFRS standards in the future The standards and interpretations published by IASB and listed below will come into force in 2010 or thereafter. The Group has decided against their early adoption and will apply them in future accounting periods. - IFRIC 15, Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate. The interpretation clarifies whether an agreement for the construction of real estate falls within the scope of IAS 11 Construction Contracts or IAS 18 Revenue, and when income from such construction projects can be recognised on the basis of percentage of completion. In Lemminkäinen Group the new interpretation will affect especially the income recognition practice for own housing production, the basis of which will change from percentage-of-completion to full completion and delivery from 2010 onwards. The EU Commission endorsed the guidance in July 2009. The regulation will come into force from the beginning of the 2010 accounting period. - IFRIC 12 Service Concession Arrangements. The interpretation applies to contractual arrangements whereby a private-sector operator participates in the development, financing, operation or maintenance of public services infrastructure. - IFRS 3 (Revised), Business combinations. The revised standard continues to apply the acquisition method to business combinations, with some significant changes. For example, all payments to purchase a business are to be recorded at fair value at the acquisition date, with some contingent payments subsequently remeasured at fair value through income. Goodwill may be calculated based on the parent company's share of net assets or it may include goodwill related to the minority interest. All transaction costs will be expensed. The Group's management is assessing the impact of this revision on the consolidated financial statements. IAS 27 (Revised), Consolidated and separate financial statements. The revised standard requires the effects of all transactions with non-controlling interests to be recorded in equity if there is no change in control. Thus, transactions with non-controlling interests will no longer result in goodwill or the recognition of gains or losses through profit or loss. The standard also specifies the accounting when control is lost. Any remaining interest in the entity is remeasured to fair value and a gain or loss is recognised through profit or loss. The Group's management is clarifying the effect of the standard on the consolidated financial statements. An assessment indicates that the following interpretations and standards have no essential bearing on Lemminkäinen Group's financial statements: IAS 39 (Amendment), IFRS 5 (Amendment), IFRIC 17 and IFRIC 18 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND OTHER TABULATED INFORMATION 1) Consolidated income statement 2) Consolidated statement of comprehensive income 3) Consolidated balance sheet 4) Consolidated cash flow

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7) SEGMENT INFORMATION In Lemminkäinen Group, management means the CEO of Lemminkäinen Corporation, who is the chief operating decision-maker. Internal segment reporting to management covers net sales, depreciation, operating profit, financial items, profit before taxes, non-current assets, inventories and trade receivables. The segment information reported to management is generally prepared according to the same principles as those applied in the consolidated financial statements. Imputed items are not considered in segment reporting. Such items include, among others, depreciation of assets acquired by finance leasing, interest separated from payments, warranty provisions, and unrealised gains or losses on derivatives. In segment reporting to management, finance leasing arrangements are treated as ordinary rental agreements, which deviates from the accounting principles of IFRS financial statements. Affiliated companies are combined in segment reporting in proportion to ownership share using the line-by-line method. In IFRS financial statements affiliated companies are combined by the equity method. In segment reporting, intersegment sales are not allocated to segments, owing to their minimal magnitude, and are not reported to management.

million, of which Lemminkäinen is to pay EUR 68 million. The decision settled finally the Finnish Competition Authority's claim made in 2004 for the imposition of a fine concerning violations of the Act on Competition Restrictions on seven companies operating in the asphalt industry during the period 1994-2002. The Finnish Competition Authority originally proposed that a total competition infringement fine of EUR 97 million should be imposed on the asphalt companies and the Finnish Asphalt Association, of which Lemminkäinen was to pay EUR 68 million. In December 2007 the Market Court dismissed the Competition Authority's motion for the most part and ordered the asphalt companies to pay an infringement fine of EUR 19.4 million, of which Lemminkäinen was to pay EUR 14 million. The difference between the infringement fine of EUR 68 million ordered by the SAC and the infringement fine of EUR 14 million ordered by the Market Court (EUR 54 million) was expensed in the third quarter of 2009. The infringement fine of EUR 14 million ordered by the Market Court was expensed in the fourth quarter of 2007. Certain municipalities have announced in statements of claim submitted to the District Court of Helsinki that they will claim for damages from Lemminkäinen and other asphalt companies if the SAC finds that the asphalt companies have acted in breach of competition legislation within their municipal boundaries. The claims presented in the statements of claim differ from each other as regards their amounts and grounds. In addition, the Finnish Road Administration has claimed, in connection with work carried out for the Finnish State, at most EUR 10.5 million from Lemminkäinen and at most EUR 5.6 million jointly and severally with other asphalt companies. The decision rendered by the SAC will probably initiate the consideration of claims for damages in the District Court of Helsinki to the extent that the Finnish Road Administration and the municipalities regard that the decision of the SAC warrants such action. Lemminkäinen initially considers the claims presented by the municipalities and the Finnish Road Administration as unfounded. Furthermore, the decision rendered by the SAC does not concern individual contracts or their pricing. Claims for damages will be considered separately before the District Court of Helsinki and heard in the order determined by the court. No provision for future expense has been made in respect of the statements of claims submitted so far by the municipalities and the Finnish Road Administration.
