Operating profit stood at EUR 6.5 million (EUR 3.3 million), equivalent to 96 % growth. Earnings per share (basic) were 28 cents (12 cents). Earnings per share (diluted) were 25 cents (10 cents). Equity per share was EUR 0.93 (EUR 0.78) and the equity ratio was 36.8 % (34.9%). The Group's financial assets enabled the realisation of the growth strategy. The company's Board of Directors proposes a dividend of EUR 0.12 share. GROUP FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE Panostaja Group's net turnover was EUR 121.1 million (EUR 69.1 million). The growth in net turnover was mainly the result of completed acquisitions during the financial year. The Group's operating profit increased by 96 % from the previous year's EUR 3.3 million to EUR 6.5 million, while profit before taxes grew by 103 % from EUR 2.2 million to EUR 4.4 million. Profit for the financial year was EUR 13.8 million (EUR 5.9 million), with EUR 2.8 million and EUR 11.0 million attributable to continuing and discontinued operations respectively. Profit from discontinued operations consisted of the sale of Arme Oy. Profit attributable to parent company shareholders accounted for EUR 12.7 million (4.3 million). As a result of an divestments on 3rd July 2008 the Arme Group was entirely removed from the Panostaja Group results for the financial year and continuing business operations for the reference period. Arme's overall contribution to Panostaja's profits for the year 1.11.2007 - 31.10.08 is EUR 11 million, as the profit from the sale of the shares is treated as taxable income. The Group's net financing income was approximately EUR 1.9 million and its financial expenditure was about EUR 3.9 million. The Group's average number of employees during the financial year was 646 (571). At year-end there were 727 (719) staff employed. INVESTMENTS AND FINANCING The Group's gross capital expenditure during the reporting period was EUR 24,2 million (EUR 21.9 million). The most important investments during the reporting period were the purchase of Kopijyvä Oy and the acquisition of Hervannan Koneistus Oy by Takoma Oyj. In December 2007, the company distributed EUR 3.97 million in dividends to parent company shareholders for the 2006/2007 period. Dividends paid to minority shareholders in subsidiaries amounted to EUR 0.47 million. The Equity Rebate paid to the shareholders amounted to 14.0% of Takoma Oyj's share capital, equivalent to EUR 3.75 million at the time of the decision. During the reporting period, the Group acquired an interest-rate cap agreement to act as a hedge against the loans raised by Group companies during the financial year 2007, totalling EUR 24.82 million. The amount of the Group's interest-bearing liabilities at year-end was EUR 43.7 million (EUR 32.6 million), excluding the convertible subordinated loan. Cash flow from operating activities remained at a good level throughout the period. The Group's equity ratio stood at 36.6 (34.9%), while its gearing ratio was 33.7 (23.7%). Return on equity was 29.3 %(18.6%). Return on investment stood at 18.3 % (14.8%). CHANGES TO THE GROUP STRUCTURE Takoma Oyj (formerly Suomen Helasto Oyj), Panostaja Oyj's publicly listed subsidiary, purchased the share capital of Hervannan Koneistus Oy from Kimmo Korhonen and the business operation of Tampereen Laatukoneistus Oy from Panostaja Oyj through transactions carried out on 1st November 2007. Acquisitions were made on the basis of authorisations granted by Takoma Oyj's Annual General Meeting on 17th October 2007. Takoma Oyj signed a share exchange agreement with Kimmo Korhonen, owner of Hervannan Koneistus Oy, whereupon Mr. Korhonen surrendered the entire share capital of Hervannan Koneistus Oy to Takoma. To this end, Takoma Oyj's Board of Directors decided to increase the company's share capital by EUR 159,775.50 to EUR 939,855.96 by launching a share issue disapplying shareholders' pre-emption rights and to give Kimmo Korhonen 2,662,925 new Takoma Oyj shares at a subscription price of EUR 1.84 per share in exchange. The value of the share exchange, according to the closing price of Suomen Helasto Oyj's share on 31 October 2007, was EUR 4.9 million. Disapplication of pre-emption rights was authorised by the General Meeting and there were pressing financial reasons for following this course of action from the Company's point of view. New shares were issued as part of an acquisition relating to restructuring. The new shares surrendered to Kimmo Korhonen were entered in the Trade Register on 28th November 2007, meaning that Panostaja Oyj's holding in Takoma Oyj dropped to 79.19%, thus causing Panostaja Oyj to forfeit its right and obligation of redemption as a majority shareholder under Chapter 18, section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act in respect of Takoma Oyj shares. On 1st November 2007, Takoma Oyj's subsidiary, Causatak Oy, purchased the business operation of Tampereen Laatukoneistus Oy, part of the Panostaja Group, at a price of EUR 3.7 million. Assets outside the ordinary course of business, including premises owned by the company, remained with the selling company as part of the deal. Panostaja Oyj purchased the entire share capital of Kopijyvä Oy with a bill of sale signed on 29th April 2008 and the deal became binding on both parties on 2nd May 2008. Kopijyvä Oy is one of Finland's biggest companies providing digital printing services. After 30 years in the business, the firm has sound experience of copying, construction drawings, posters and four-colour as well as black and white print products. The group's annual turnover is around EUR 11 million. Kopijyvä employs about 130 staff and has offices in Jyväskylä, Kuopio, Joensuu, Varkaus, Kouvola, and - as from September 2008 - Mikkeli. But, via its affiliates/associated companies and network of partners, the firm in fact operates in a total of 16 locations. There are also offices abroad - in St Petersburg and Tallinn. Heimo Viinanen, CEO of Kopijyvä Oy, will continue to run the company and be a significant minority shareholder. The final price of the deal was confirmed between the parties on 22nd May 2008 at EUR 16,983,490.60. On 2nd May 2008 Panostaja Oyj signed an agreement to acquire the business operation of Ecosir Oy, a company established in 1996 specialising in solutions for waste management and property maintenance equipment. With the acquisition, Panostaja expanded its operation and established a new business area specialising in environmental technology. Furthermore, on 1st July 2008 the entire share capital of Kospa Oy, a company manufacturing waste treatment equipment, was purchased. The combined annual turnover for Ecosir and Kospa is around EUR 5.7 million and the companies employ a total of 32 staff. In October Suomen Helakeskus Oy, Seinäjoen Rakennustarvike and Lukko Oy, all at Seinäjoki and part of the Panostaja Group, merged their operations. The name of the new parent company became Suomen Helasto Oy. In its Financial Statements Bulletin of 11th December 2007 the Board of Directors of Panostaja Oyj said it had decided to start exploring the possibilities of distributing Takoma Oyj shares as dividends to Panostaja Oyj shareholders. The exploratory work reached an end on 22nd May 2008 and, instead of a distribution of dividends, the Panostaja Board decided to propose at an extraordinary general meeting that the shareholders should be refunded their capital out of the invested unrestricted shareholder's capital fund paid either in the form of Takoma shares or cash ('Equity Rebate'). The Equity Rebate also involved a sale of shares (seasoned equity offering) ('Sale of Shares'). The summary of the Equity Rebate and Sale of Shares and the relevant securities note were approved by the Financial Supervision Authority on 2nd June 2008. In the preliminary ruling on the Equity Rebate and Sale of Shares the Tax Office for Major Corporations decided on the basis of an overall assessment that Panostaja was a capital investor (venture capital company) within the meaning of section 6 of the Finnish Business Tax Act, meaning that the profit (capital gain) from any sales of Takoma shares given in the form of an Equity Rebate was taxable income for Panostaja. This interpretation by the tax office would, if adhered to, have an impact on the tax treatment of any profits and losses resulting from the surrender of Panostaja's other shares in fixed assets. The interpretation would not, however, have any impact on the tax treatment of shareholders. The proposal by the Board for the Equity Rebate was approved at Panostaja Oyj's extraordinary meeting on 9th June 2008. The company reimbursed to shareholders who owned at least 3,000 Panostaja shares, Panostaja-owned Takoma shares according to the value of their holdings. Those shareholders who owned fewer than 3,000 Panostaja shares received their Equity Rebate in the form of cash. The Equity Rebate involved a total of 2,189,127 Takoma OY shares being distributed to 798 Panostaja Oyj shareholders. Cash payments amounted to EUR 112,231.59. The sale of shares in connection with the Equity Rebate involved the sale of 1,166 Takoma Oyj shares in all, for a total of EUR 1,935.56. As a result of the Equity Rebate, Panostaja Oyj's holding in Takoma Oyj fell to 65.21% of shares and votes. CEO Kimmo Korhonen's shareholding in the company remained at 17%. Following the Equity Rebate, 17.79% of Takoma Oyj shares and votes were held by the public. Furthermore, the OMX Nordic Stock Exchange Helsinki announced that the problems regarding the pricing of the Takoma share had been eradicated. The Takoma Oyj share was therefore removed from the watch list on 4th July 2008. Together with the other Arme Oy owners, Panostaja Oyj sold its shares in Arme Oy (69.9% of the share capital) with a bill of sale signed on 3rd July 2008 to a fund managed by Sentica Partners Oy. After costs and expert fees, Panostaja Oyj's share of the sale price was EUR 20.0 million. In addition to its liabilities connected with the acquisition, Panostaja finances the purchaser with a temporary loan of EUR 3.5 million. The contribution of the Arme sale to Panostaja Group profits for the year 1.11.2007 - 31.10.08 is approximately EUR 11.0 million, as the profit from the sale of the shares is treated as taxable income. In the preliminary ruling on the Equity Rebate in May 2008 the Tax Office for Major Corporations decided on the basis of an overall assessment that Panostaja was a capital investor (venture capital company) within the meaning of section 6 of the Finnish Business Tax Act, meaning that the profit (capital gain) recorded on the sales of Arme Oy shares would be taxable income for Panostaja. If this interpretation is adhered to, Panostaja Oyj would have to pay EUR 4.6 million in capital gains tax. Panostaja Oyj's view is that the company is not a capital investor as referred to in the Act. As a result of the acquisition, the Arme Group was removed entirely from the results for continuing business operations for the Panostaja Group in the financial year and reference period. The Panostaja Oyj Board nevertheless adhered to its forecast that the profit for continuing operations in the financial year would be up on the previous year. The comparable operating profit for continuing operations for the Panostaja group in the financial year 2007 was EUR 3.3 million, ignoring the Arme Group. ADMINISTRATION AND ANNUAL GENERAL MEETINGS Panostaja Oyj's Annual General Meeting was held in Tampere, Finland, on 18th December 2007. Mr. Matti Koskenkorva, Mr. Jukka Ala-Mello and Mr. Hannu Tarkkonen were re-elected to Panostaja Oyj's Board of Directors. New members elected to the Board were Mr. Hannu Martikainen, Honorary Counsellor of Construction Engineering, and Mr. Hannu Ketola, Master of Social Sciences in Political Science. As soon as the Annual General Meeting was concluded, the Board of Directors convened for their organisational meeting and appointed Mr. Matti Koskenkorva Chairman of the Board and Mr. Jukka Ala-Mello Deputy Chairman. As auditors, the AGM re-elected Mr. Hannu Pellinen, APA, and PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy, APA, with Mr. Janne Rajalahti, APA, as the responsible auditor. The AGM approved the financial statements presented for the financial year 1.11. 2006 - 31.20.2007 and the Board's proposal to transfer the profit for the period to retained earnings and to distribute EUR 0.09 per share in dividends. The record date for dividend distribution was 21st December 2007 and the payment date was as from 31st December 2007. In addition, the AGM granted discharge in respect of the members of the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer. The Annual General Meeting revoked all authorisations granted at the Annual General Meeting held on 15th December 2006 and authorised the Board of Directors to decide on offering no more than 2,725,659 Class A shares and no more than 62,794,408 Class B shares through a regular or bonus issue or by granting share options and other rights referred to in Chapter 10, section 1 of the Companies Act, in one or more tranches. The authorisation does not exclude the Board's right to decide on private placements or on granting the aforementioned special rights. The authorisation covers the Board's right to decide on any terms and conditions of the share issue(s) and said special rights, including recipients of shares or special rights and the amounts payable in consideration. The Annual General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors, within the limits of the aforementioned authorisation, to decide on an increase in the share capital through one or more share issues or by granting share options and other rights referred to in Chapter 10, section 1 of the Companies Act, with a maximum of 1,000,000 new Class A shares and a maximum of 60,000,000 new Class B shares being offered for subscription in the issue(s) at a nominal price of EUR 0.12 each. The share capital increase cannot exceed EUR 7,320,000. In addition, the Annual General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors, within the limits of the aforementioned authorisation, to decide on a share issue, granting share options and other rights referred to in Chapter 10, section 1 of the Companies Act, with the company offering no more than 1,725,659 and 2,794,408 of its Class A and B shares respectively. The authorisation will be valid for five years as from the decision taken at the AGM. During the reporting period the Board exercised its authority and sold a total of 335,512 Panostaja Oyj Class B shares (trading code: PNABS) to the members of the management team. The sale was carried out on 12th March 2008 in after-hours trading on the Helsinki Stock Exchange. The sale price on 12th March 2008 was the closing price, i.e. EUR 1.07 per share for a total of EUR 358, 997.84. The sale was effected in order to implement the Panostaja Oy management team's incentive scheme. The Annual General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide on buying back the company's own shares using unrestricted shareholders' equity within 18 months from the date of the decision taken at the AGM. The shares are to be bought in the manner and to the extent decided by the Board to be used as consideration for possible business acquisitions or other restructuring measures or when purchasing assets as part of business operations for the company or a company in the same Group, for developing the company's capital structure, for cancelling shares, or for implementing the incentive scheme for key personnel. The shares will be acquired in disproportion to shareholdings in public trading organised by the Helsinki Stock Exchange at their current price in public trading at the time of purchase. On 1st February 2008 Heikki Nuutila, Master of Social Sciences, was appointed Development Director for Panostaja Oyj and thus invited to become a member of the management team. He will be responsible for the development of the parent company's business processes and the Group's real estate development, while also working actively to support business area managers. Mr. Nuutila was CEO of Tutor Partners Oy and a Director at Andersen Global Corporate Finance. Jarkko Iso-Eskeli was invited to become CEO and shareholder in KL-Varaosat, to start from 1st April 2008. He was formerly Export Manager for FennoSteel Oy. Jukka Laakso, CEO of LukkoExpert Security Oy, was invited to be a shareholder in the company on 10th June 2008. Laakso has been CEO of LukkoExpert Security Oy since 2005. In October Pekka Koskenkorva was appointed CEO of Suomen Helasto Oy. SHARE CAPITAL AND OWN SHARES At the end of the financial year, Panostaja Oyj's share capital stood at EUR 5,529,081.60. The number of issued Class A and B shares amounted to 17,256,595 and 28,819,085 respectively. According to a notification received by Panostaja Oyj on 18th March 2008, Olli Halmevuo's holding in Panostaja Oyj went under the 5% level that same day. His holding was at that point 1,980,943 Class A and 272,634 Class B shares, totalling 2,253,577, equivalent to 4.98% of the Panostaja shares and 10.69% of the votes. On 18th December 2007 Panostaja Oyj's AGM decided to pay the Board's attendance allowance in such a way that approximately 40% of the allowance paid to a member would be paid in Class B shares on the basis of the Board's authorisation to issue shares if the Board member does not own more than 1% of all the company's shares on the date of the AGM. If the Board member owns more than 1% of all the company's shares on the date of the AGM the total allowance is paid in cash. In addition, the Board of Panostaja Oyj decided at its organisational meeting after the AGM to implement the decision taken at the AGM regarding Board members allowances in shares, with the allowance being paid four times a year and always on the day following publication of the interim report/financial statements. On 13th March 2008 Panostaja Oyj distributed a total of 7,569 Class B shares to the Board members as payment of their attendance allowance in accordance with the decisions taken at the AGM and by the Board of Directors.

On 30th October 2008 the Board embarked on a programme for buying back their own shares based on a decision taken on 18th December 2007. The number in question is a maximum of 4,520,067 shares, where the combined number of shares acquired does not exceed 10% of all the company's shares. The programme will have ended by 30th April 2009. The number of own shares held by the company at the end of the reporting period was 739,751, consisting of 476,000 and 263,751 Class A and B shares respectively. The number of acquired Class A shares was equivalent to 1.03% of the total number of shares at the end of the reporting period and to 2.55% of the total number of votes carried by all shares. The number of Class B shares was equivalent to 0.57% and 0.07% of total numbers of shares and votes respectively. SUBORDINATED LOAN The amount of the 2006 convertible subordinated loan outstanding at the end of the reporting period was EUR 17,212,500, entitling holders to subscribe for a total of 10,125,000 new Class B shares. Panostaja Oyj's convertible loan of 2006 was used to subscribe for 875,000 new Panostaja Class B shares, the rise in share capital of EUR 105,000 concerning which was recorded in the Trade Register on 8th May 2008.

Panostaja Oyj's Annual General Meeting will be held in Tampere, Finland, on 26th January 2009. SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Panostaja Group's most significant risks are described in the financial statements. Short-term risks relate in particular to the successful integration of acquired companies. The strong decline of the general economic situation may cause a drop in customer demand and a credit loss risk in some segments. EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE FINANCIAL YEAR An extraordinary general meeting on 10th November 2008 decided to combine the Class A and B shares in one series of shares. To this end, Panostaja Oyj organised a bonus share issue for the shareholders in which for every 13 Class A shares one new Panostaja share was given free. After the share series merger and private placements a holder of Class A shares would thus own 15 shares instead of a previous 13 shares in Panostaja. Following the exercise, each share would have one vote and the same membership (shareholders') rights. Trading in the combined shares began on 14th November 2008. The share's trading code is PNA1V. Panostaja Oyj's equity capital and holdings altered when the new (shares) issued in the bonus issue were recorded in the Trade Register on 14th November 2008. The number of shares is 47,403,110 in total. Matti Koskenkorva's holding went under 15% of the votes carried by the shares of Panostaja Oyj. His holding is 6,124,453 shares, which is 12.9% of Panostaja Oyj's equity capital and votes. Maija Koskenkorva's holding exceeded 10% of the votes carried by the shares of Panostaja Oyj. Her holding is 5,071,742 shares, which is 10.7% of Panostaja Oyj's equity capital and votes. Olli Halmevuo's holding went under 5% of the votes carried by the shares of Panostaja Oyj. His holding is 2,013,715 shares, which is 4.2% of Panostaja Oyj's equity capital and votes. The share issue did not affect the company's equity capital. The extraordinary general meeting on 10th November 2008 also decided to change the Articles of Association. The new Articles of Association were entered in the Trade Register on 14th November 2008. The company has also submitted a claim for rectification concerning the tax authority's interpretation of capital investor after the end of the financial year. In the preliminary ruling on the Equity Rebate for the Takoma Oy shares in spring 2008 the Tax Office for Major Corporations decided on the basis of an overall assessment that Panostaja was a capital investor (venture capital company) within the meaning of section 6 of the Finnish Business Tax Act. The Tax Office for Major Corporations in its regular dealings in 2007 regarded Panostaja Oy as a capital investor and taxed the company on certain capital gains on its shares in fixed assets. Panostaja Oyj contests the interpretation and has submitted a claim for rectification to the relevant Taxation Verification Committee. The process is likely to last six to eight months. As part of its chosen growth strategy and aim to concentrate on core operations, on 23rd October 2008 Panostaja Oyj advised that it was exploring the possibility of realising the cash value of the real estate it owns, even though the Group's current liquidity is sufficient to establish growth. The exploratory work was meant to be completed by December 2008, but due to the situation in the financial markets, it will continue in 2009. OUTLOOK FOR THE REST OF THE FINANCIAL YEAR The Panostaja Group will continue to focus on the business idea in line with its core business strategy and on the development of existing business areas. The retirement of the baby-boomers, the ever more dramatic changes in the business environment and internationalisation will result in a large number of business purchases over the next few years. Panostaja's operating conditions, available capital resources and liquid assets are a good basis for intense expansion of operations. The increasing number of SMEs operating in traditional industries will enable both further expansion into new business areas and growth in existing ones. The dramatic downturn in the international economic situation is affecting Finland as well. The economic outlook in current business area sectors is closely bound up with the prospects that corporate customers face. The outlook for the Panostaja Group's various business areas varies from declining to cautiously positive. The crisis in the construction industry will have an impact on some of these, but corrective action has started to be taken well in advance. The investments in reporting and monitoring systems made this financial year will boost its ability to react. The current economic climate is also an opportunity for acquisitions, and the Panostaja Group's growth strategy is to make controlled acquisitions, especially in existing business areas. Turnover and profits for the Group's financial year are expected to exceed the level of the past financial year.
