Operating profit without non-recurring items was EUR 0.6 million - Profit before taxes was EUR 0.1 million (EUR -1.5 million) - Earnings per share amounted to EUR 0.02 (EUR -0.41) January-September 2010 - Honkarakenne Group's consolidated net sales for January-September 2010 amounted to EUR 43.1 million (EUR 39.6 million), an increase of 9% on the previous year's corresponding period - Operating profit was EUR 0.9 million (EUR -1.8 million). Operating profit without non-recurring items was EUR 2.0 million - Profit before taxes was EUR 0.2 million - Earnings per share amounted to EUR 0.03 (EUR -0.52) The net sales of the entire year is expected to increase slightly from the level of the previous year, and the Group aims at a profitable result during the financial year.

At the end of the third quarter, the order book was 14% smaller than at the same time the previous year. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | KEY FIGURES | 7-9/ | 7-9/ | 1-9/ | 1-9/ | change | 1-12/ | | | 2010 | 2009 | 2010 | 2009 | % | 2009 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Net sales, MEUR | 15.0 | 12.0 | 43.1 | 39.6 | 9 | 52.3 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating profit/loss, | 0.2 | -1.4 | 0.9 | -1.8 | | -3.0 | | MEUR | | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating profit before | 0.6 | | 2.0 | | | | | non-recurring items, MEUR | | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Profit/loss before taxes, | 0.1 | -1.5 | 0.2 | -2.1 | | -3.7 | | MEUR | | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Average number of | | | 304 | 368 | | 351 | | personnel | | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Earnings/share (EPS), EUR | 0.02 | -0.41 | 0.03 | -0.52 | | -1.05 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Equity ratio, % | | | 39 | 31 | | 29 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Return on equity, % | | | 1 | -13 | | -26 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Shareholders' | | | 3.4 | 4.0 | | 3.5 | | equity/share, EUR | | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Gearing, % | | | 82 | 136 | | 149 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Esa Rautalinko, President and CEO of Honkarakenne Oyj, in connection with the interim report: "The third quarter was satisfactory for Honkarakenne. The development of net sales compared to the previous year significantly exceeded our expectations in the 'Other countries' sales area. In Finland and Far East, the development met our expectations, but the net sales for the Central European market did not reach the expected level. The profit for the third quarter was brought down by the bankruptcy of Timberheart, a former associated company of Honkarakenne. Honkarakenne had loan guarantees on behalf of Timberheart also direct loans and sales receivables for a total of EUR 0.4 million. This has been reported as an expenditure in the third quarter. In addition, one old sales receivable of EUR 0.2 million had to be written off by Honkarakenne. The focus of the third quarter was the same as in the previous quarter, to promote sales while taking care to follow through on the improvement programme. The Group aims to achieve cost savings of around EUR 5 million this year. The efficiency measures of the improvement programme and the increase in sales have had a combined effect of around EUR 3.1 million during the first three quarters. The economic recession has made the buying behaviour of customers take on a very short-term character. As a result, the growth of the order book has not reached the desired level during the third quarter. It is difficult to make accurate forecasts on the Group's activity, as the customers' orders are typically confirmed only just before the last possible moment. To ensure its competitiveness despite the fluctuations in sales and production, Honkarakenne has decided to invite representatives of its employees to negotiations under the act on co-operation within undertakings. The co-operation negotiations will discuss the authorising of temporary lay-offs of a maximum of 90 days during 2011.” NET SALES Honkarakenne Group's consolidated net sales for January-September 2010 was EUR 43.1 million, compared to EUR 39.6 million in the same period the previous year. Honkarakenne Group's consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 2010 was EUR 15.0 million, compared to EUR 12.0 million in the same period the previous year. The net sales for the third quarter increased by EUR 3.0 million; they were 25% higher than in the previous year. The net sales in Finland increased by EUR 1.8 million (32% higher than in the previous year). Net export sales increased by EUR 1.2 million (19% higher than in the previous year).

DEVELOPMENT OF PROFIT AND PROFITABILITY Operating profit in January-September was EUR 0.9 million (EUR -1.8 million). Profit before taxes was EUR 0.2 million (EUR -2.1 million). In the third quarter of the year, the profit is brought down by EUR 0.4 million by the bankruptcy of Timberheart. It is also brought down by the write-off of a sales receivable of EUR 0.2 million. The calculations below present the change in operating profit from 2009 to 2010. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating profit 2009 | -1.8 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Write-off of goodwill included in the profit and loss | 0.4 | | statement for 2009 | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Improvement programme and increase in sales | 3.1 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Other items | 0.3 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating profit 2010 without non-recurring items | 2.0 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Non-recurring items | -1.1 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Operating profit 2010 | 0.9 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Of the non-recurring items, EUR 0.4 million are related to the Timberheart bankruptcy, EUR 0.7 to the execution of the improvement programme. Of the non-recurring items related to the improvement programme, 41% are related to severance compensation, 40% to the implementation of efficiency-improving projects and 19% to financing arrangements. FINANCING AND INVESTMENTS The financial position of the Group is satisfactory. The equity ratio stood at 39% (31%) and interest-bearing net liabilities at EUR 13.5 million (EUR 19.3 million). EUR 2.7 million of the interest-bearing net liabilities carries a 25% minimum equity ratio covenant term until 30 September 2010, after which the minimum is 30%. Group liquid assets totalled EUR 1.4 million (EUR 2.7 million). The Group also has a EUR 10.0 million bank overdraft facility, EUR 3.1 million of which had been drawn on at the end of the report period (EUR 6.8 million). Gearing stood at 82% (136%). The Group's capital expenditure in January-September totalled EUR 0.4 million (EUR 2.2 million). The financial position of the Group is expected to remain at a satisfactory level. MARKET DEVELOPMENT Based on a report commissioned by RTS Oy, Finnish log house production is expected to grow by 8% this year. The figure includes production for Finland and for overseas export. PRODUCTS AND MARKETING In Finland, Honkarakenne made changes to enhance profitability according to the improvement programme, especially to its vacation house models. The changes concentrated on the development of industrial production efficiency of the models and on the improvement of product quality as well as design. In Far East, the main measure was a marketing campaign targeted at the sales network, which was intended to expedite the sales process. In Central Europe, an increase in sales was aimed at by focusing sales activities on large project sites. In the Other countries area, measures were continued to serve the luxury and premium customers especially. In addition, measures were taken to strengthen the sales network in Russia's neighbouring states particularly. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT In the third quarter, Honkarakenne's R&D activities have concentrated on the creation of new energy-efficient model ranges, especially for the residential house market. Honkarakenne will unveil the new energy solutions during the fourth quarter of the year. In January-September, the Group's R&D expenditures were EUR 0.4 million (EUR 0.3 million), which was 0.9% of the net sales (0.7%). The Group has not activated development costs during the reporting period. STAFF At the end of September, the Group employed 304 (368) people on average. This is 64 less than at the same time in the previous year. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Honkarakenne Oyj observes the corporate governance code for listed companies issued by the Finnish Securities Market Association. The company's website, www.honka.com/investors, provides more information on the corporate governance systems. FUTURE OUTLOOK The aim for 2011 is growth in all market areas. The Group's order book totalled EUR 17.3 million at the end of September. At the same time previous year it was EUR 20.1 million. The Order book includes orders whose delivery date is within the next 24 months. Some orders may feature conditions related to building permits or financing. At the end of the third quarter, the order book was 14% smaller than at the same time in the previous year. FORTHCOMING RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES The timing of deliveries in the last quarter of 2010 is the greatest uncertainty factor concerning the achievement of the profit target. It is characteristic of construction work at the end of the year that orders are sometimes postponed by a few weeks by customers because of weather conditions. Due to seasonal fluctuation, the order book is weak in relation to fixed costs. This creates pressure for cost controls. The Group has one significant concentration of credit risks in sales receivables, concerning the open sales receivables of one importer. No provision for doubtful debt has been made for this. The new sales made with this importer have been paid according to the agreed terms. Deliveries to the importer have continued, and the risks with the open sales receivables have not increased. A payment plan agreement related to the matter was signed during the second quarter of the year. The assessment of amounts in the balance sheet is based on current assessment by the management. If these assessments are changed, this may result in changes to the Group's result. REPORTING This report contains statements that relate to the future, and these statements are based on hypotheses that the company's management hold currently as well as on the decisions and plans that are currently in place. Although the management believes that the hypotheses relating to the future are well-founded, there is no guarantee that the said hypotheses will prove to be correct. This interim report has been prepared in line with the IFRS principles of bookkeeping and assessment, but it does not meet all of the requirements of standard IAS 34 (Interim Financial Reporting). The interim report should be read together with the accounts for 2009. The figures have not been examined by the auditor. OUTLOOK FOR 2010 The net sales of the entire year are expected to increase slightly from the level of the previous year, and the Group aims at a profitable result during the financial year. The timing of deliveries in the last quarter of 2010 is the greatest uncertainty factor concerning the achievement of a profitable result. It is characteristic of building work at the end of the year that orders are sometimes postponed by a few weeks by customers because of weather conditions.

bookkeeping and assessment, but it does not meet all of the requirements of standard IAS 34 (Interim Financial Reporting). The interim report should be read together with the accounts for 2009. The new revised standards or interpretations effective as of 1 January 2010 have no bearing on the figures presented for the report period. The figures have not been examined by the auditor.
