Increasingly efficient operations and our strong balance sheet and

Business segments
Oriola-KD has two business segments: the Pharmaceutical Trade
business segment and the Healthcare and Dental Trade business
segment.
Pharmaceutical Trade business segment

January-September was EUR 1,682.0 million (EUR 1,537.1 million) and
net sales were EUR 865.0 million (EUR 820.2 million). Operating

items was EUR 5.0 million (EUR 4.9 million).
The pharmaceutical market in Finland grew by 4.7 percent (1.0
percent) and in Sweden by 6.7 percent (4.1 percent) in
January-September 2007 (source: IMS Health).
Oriola-KD's share of the pharmaceutical distribution market in
Finland was 44.3 percent (41.1 percent) in September 2007 and 46.3
percent (41.7 percent) in January-September 2007 (source: IMS
Health). In Sweden, Oriola-KD's market share in pharmaceutical
distribution was 42.4 percent (43.1 percent) in September 2007 and
42.5 percent (43.7 percent) in January-September 2007 (source: ATY
and IMS Health).
The streamlining measures implemented in 2006 will allow us to
achieve in full our goal of EUR 5 million in cost savings in 2007.
These savings will enhance in particular the profitability of the
Pharmaceutical Trade business segment in 2007.
The number of employees within the Pharmaceutical Trade business
segment was 866 (971) at 30 September 2007, compared to 925 at
year-end 2006.
New distribution agreements
During the period under review, Oriola-KD gained pharmaceutical
distribution principals Schering-Plough Oy and Roche Oy as of 1
January 2007. Schering-Plough's share of the Finnish pharmaceutical
market in 2006 was 1.7 percent and Roche's 3.8 percent. In Sweden,
Oriola-KD started distributing Meda pharmaceuticals as of 1 January
2007 and assumed responsibility for all Pfizer distribution at the
end of May 2007, having before that distributed half of Pfizer's
pharmaceutical brands in Sweden. Meda's share of the Swedish
pharmaceutical market in 2006 was 1.2 percent and Pfizer's 9.2
percent (source: IMS Health).
Negotiations with principals in the review period did not result in
Oriola-KD concluding any significant new distribution agreements in
Finland or Sweden.
In the Pharmacy and Retail Marketing business, Oriola-KD and the
Finnish Valio Ltd signed a cooperation agreement in August for Oriola
to assume responsibility for the manufacture, distribution, sales and
marketing of Valio Gefilus capsules. The cooperation agreement
concerns the Finnish, Baltic and Swedish markets.
Transferring distribution agreements
The pharmaceutical principals transferring from Oriola-KD in the
period under review hold a total combined share of some 1.5 percent
of the pharmaceutical market in Finland and some 3 percent in Sweden.
The transferring pharmaceutical principals in Finland are the Finnish
subsidiary of Amgen AB as of 1 April 2007 and in Sweden Schering
Nordiska as of 1 July 2007 and Amgen AB as of 1 October 2007.
Negotiations initiated in Q2 with unprofitable, mainly small and
medium-sized pharmaceutical principals on renewing distribution
agreements in Finland and Sweden were for the most part completed
during the third quarter of 2007. The new agreements are estimated to
contribute to improved profitability starting in 2008.
According to the situation at 30 September 2007, Oriola-KD's share of
the pharmaceutical distribution market in 2007 is estimated at some
46 percent in Finland and approximately 43 percent in Sweden.
Healthcare and Dental Trade business segment
The Healthcare and Dental Trade business segment's invoicing in
January-September 2007 was EUR 202.6 million (EUR 200.0 million) and
net sales were EUR 180.7 million (EUR 170.8 million). Operating
profit excluding one-off items was EUR 10.0 million (EUR 7.3
million).
Third-quarter invoicing came to EUR 62.2 million (EUR 63.0 million)
and net sales to EUR 55.5 million (EUR 54.1 million). Third-quarter
operating profit excluding one-off items was EUR 3.4 million (EUR 3.2
million).
The healthcare trade business saw mostly positive development in all
markets during the period under review. Ties with Teleflex Medical
were strengthened in Denmark, Sweden and Finland by including in the
product range the Hudson anaesthesia products earlier acquired by the
company. The part of Medith Oy's business acquired in early 2007
developed as planned and strengthened market standing in Finland. The
product range will be augmented with Carl Zeiss Meditec's ophthalmic
surgery products in early 2008. A letter of intent was signed in
September to transfer the marketing business of Zimmer orthopaedic
products - currently marketed in Finland by Oriola-KD - to the
Finnish sales company of Zimmer. This transfer is expected to take
place in spring 2008. An agreement was also reached on transferring
the sale of Sysmex haematology products in Finland and the Baltics to
Roche Diagnostics at the beginning of 2008. The transfer is part of a
wider international arrangement.
Dental businesses in Sweden and Denmark were merged under an
agreement concluded between Oriola-KD Corporation and Lifco AB on 7
June 2007. The merger of the businesses in Finland took place on 1
October 2007 and was approved by the competition authorities in the
period under review. In the Baltics, the merger of the businesses of
the two is estimated to take place in early 2008. Subsequent to the
merger and the cash contribution of EUR 14 million paid on 1 October
2007, Oriola-KD holds a 30 percent share of the merged dental
business while the remaining 70 percent are held by Lifco.
The number of employees within the Healthcare and Dental Trade
business segment was 523 (570) at 30 September 2007, compared to 570
at year-end 2006.

have been converted into Class B shares. At 30 September 2007, the

own Class B shares. The authorisation shall remain in force for a
period not to exceed eighteen (18) months from the decision taken by
the Annual General Meeting. On the same occasion, the AGM authorised
the Board to allocate 650,000 B shares to a share incentive scheme
for top management in the Oriola-KD Group and to sell no more than
800,000 B shares in public trading organised by the Helsinki
Exchanges.

end of the review period.
Risk factors
Oriola-KD's risks are classified as strategic, operative and
financial. Risk management is a key element of the strategic process,
operative planning and daily decision-making at Oriola-KD.
Oriola-KD has identified the following most significant strategic and
operative risks in its business:
* changes in bargaining position vis-à-vis suppliers and customers
* impacts on business concepts of potential changes in the
structure of the Swedish market
* maintenance of cost-effectiveness and flexibility in costs
* provision of competitive products and services in expanding and
consolidating markets
* expansion-related risks in new markets and businesses
* commitment of key employees
The major financial risks for Oriola-KD involve currency exchange
rates, interest rates, liquidity and credit.
During the period under review, there were no material change in the
risks and uncertainty factors faced by Oriola-KD in the near future.
Future outlook
Oriola-KD's outlook for 2007 is based on external market forecasts,
agreements with principals, cumulative orders and management's
estimates.
Long term fundamentals and growth prospects are deemed favourable in
the healthcare market. Oriola-KD estimates that the pharmaceutical
market in Finland and Sweden will grow by about 3-5 percent annually
over the next few years, which is in line with the longer-term
average growth rate of these markets.
Oriola-KD estimates that growth in the market for healthcare and
dental equipment and supplies will outpace that of the pharmaceutical
market in Finland and in Sweden. In sales of healthcare equipment and
supplies, Oriola-KD estimates that its growth will outpace that of
the market. Invoicing in the healthcare logistics services in Sweden
is estimated to fall from 2006 levels, mainly due to the sale of the
home distribution business there.
Oriola-KD's invoicing in 2007 is projected to exceed comparable
invoicing in the previous year primarily as a result of new
agreements with principals concluded in 2006 and market growth.
Operating profit excluding one-off items in 2007 is projected to
exceed comparable operating profit in the previous year primarily as
a result of higher invoicing and streamlining measures implemented in
2006. The dental business merger between Oriola-KD and Lifco is
estimated to contribute to higher operating profit at Oriola-KD
starting from Q4 in 2007.
