Kemira's President and CEO Harri Kerminen:
"Kemira's operating profit from continuing businesses, excluding
non-recurring items, increased by 52% in April-June from the same
period a year earlier, which is a very good achievement in the
current market environment. The decrease in sales volumes in several
customer segments was for the main part compensated by the sales
price increases implemented in the second half of last year. Fixed
costs in April-June were some EUR 22 million lower than in the same
period a year earlier.
I am particularly pleased with the fact that our cash flows after
investments turned clearly positive during the first half of the
year. Strengthening of the cash flow has been our main focus for this
year, and as part of this effort we reduced our net working capital
in the second quarter significantly. Thanks to the strong cash flow,
gearing took a turn in the right direction.
Customer demand remains weaker than last year, and in addition there
is pressure for increases in raw material prices. This makes our
efficiency-enhancement program, which we initiated already mid last
year, even more important. However, we are confident that our
operating profit excluding non-recurring items in continuing
businesses will be higher this year compared to last year."

The new strategy announced in June 2008 resulted in some changes to
Kemira's business structure. Financial reporting reflects the new
structure from the beginning of 2009. Kemira's new reporting segments
are Paper, Water, Oil & Mining, Tikkurila, and Other. The Other
segment consists of specialty chemicals such as organic salts and
acids and the Group expenses not charged to the segments (some
research and development costs and the costs of the CEO Office).
Kemira aims to have Tikkurila listed on the Helsinki Stock Exchange
once market conditions permit.
Financial Performance in April-June 2009
Revenue from Kemira Group's continuing business operations fell by 5%
in April-June 2009 compared to the same period a year earlier due to
weaker demand in several customer industries.

The impact of the titanium dioxide business transferred to a joint
venture has been eliminated in the continuing business operations.
Revenue in April-June 2009 totaled EUR 650.9 million (April-June
2008: EUR 741.5 million). In extremely volatile market conditions,
demand for paints and coatings decreased considerably as new
construction, building material sales, and housing sales slowed down
in all key markets. Pulp and paper chemical sales declined following
weaker demand in customer industries. Demand for municipal water
treatment solutions remained healthy, but in industrial water
treatment demand fell in some customer industries. The Oil & Mining
segment also experienced a decline in customer demand and revenue.
The demand and price of specialty chemicals supplied to the food,
feed, and pharmaceutical industries remained healthy.
Acquisitions had an approximately EUR 19 million positive impact on
revenue. The currency exchange effect had an approximately EUR 15
million negative impact on revenue, and the establishment of the
joint venture in the titanium dioxide business in 2008 decreased
revenue in April-June by some EUR 55 million.

Operating profit for April-June 2009 came to EUR 51.4 million (EUR
39.3 million). Operating profit excluding non-recurring items totaled
EUR 53.8 million (EUR 37.2 million). Operating profit from continuing
business operations, excluding non-recurring items, was up 52%. Sales
price increases were enforced in the second half last year in
response to the significant increase in raw material prices last
year, which contributed to the increase in operating profit in
April-June compared to the same period a year earlier and compensated
for the impact of declined sales volumes on operating profit. Other
factors contributing to the improvement in operating profit included
cost savings and the healthy demand for specialty chemicals. Fixed
costs decreased by about EUR 22 million compared to the same period a
year earlier. Variable costs increased in April-June 2009 by some EUR
4 million compared with the same period in 2008.
Acquisitions contributed some EUR 4 million to the growth in
operating profit. The currency exchange effect had an approximately
EUR 4 million negative impact on operating profit. As of September 1,
2008 Kemira's share of the titanium dioxide joint venture's results
is being reported below operating profit. In April-June 2008, the
titanium dioxide business made an operating profit of approximately
EUR 2 million.

million (EUR 13.9 million). Net financial expenses decreased from the
corresponding period a year earlier mainly due to smaller exchange
rate losses.
Profit before tax in April-June amounted to EUR 39.6 million (EUR
25.6 million) and net profit totaled EUR 29.5 million (EUR 18.9

The impact of the titanium dioxide business transferred to a joint
venture has been eliminated in the continuing business operations.
Revenue in January-June 2009 amounted to EUR 1,259.6 million
(January-June 2008: EUR 1,425.1 million). Acquisitions had an
approximately EUR 28 million positive impact on revenue. The currency
exchange effect had an approximately EUR 22 million negative impact
on revenue, and the establishment of the joint venture in the
titanium dioxide business in 2008 decreased revenue in January-June
by some EUR 109 million.
Operating profit for January-June 2009 came to EUR 79.5 million (EUR
72.3 million). Operating profit excluding non-recurring items totaled
EUR 81.9 million (EUR 64.4 million). Operating profit from continuing
business operations, excluding non-recurring items, was up 34%. Sales
price increases were enforced in the second half last year in
response to the significant increase in raw material prices last
year, which contributed to the increase in operating profit in
January-June compared to the same period a year earlier and
compensated for the impact of declined sales volumes on operating
profit. Other factors contributing to the improvement in operating
profit included cost savings and the healthy demand for specialty
chemicals. Operating profit was eroded by lower sales volumes,
particularly in Tikkurila and in pulp and paper chemicals, as well as
higher raw material prices and freight costs compared to the same
period a year earlier. Variable costs increased by some EUR 29
million in January--June 2009 compared to the same period in 2008,
but have decreased during the first half from the high reached at the
end of last year. Acquisitions contributed approximately EUR 5
million to the growth in operating profit. The currency exchange
effect had an approximately EUR 2 million negative impact on
operating profit. As of September 1, 2008 Kemira's share of the
titanium dioxide joint venture's results is being reported below
operating profit. In January-June 2008, the titanium dioxide business
made an operating profit of approximately EUR 3 million.
The annual savings target of Kemira's global cost savings program is
more than EUR 85 million. With the planned measures currently
underway, the related savings are estimated to materialize in
2009-2010. These savings will affect the entire Group and will be
achieved by streamlining the Group structure, organization, and
operating models. Fixed costs in January-June were approximately EUR
25 million lower than a year earlier.
The share of associates' results was EUR -5.0 million (EUR 0.3
million).
Profit before tax for January-June totaled EUR 47.8 million (EUR 47.5
million) and net profit totaled EUR 35.6 million (EUR 34.9 million).
Taxes totaled EUR 12.2 million (EUR 12.6 million), representing an
effective tax rate of around 25.5% (26.5%). Earnings per share were
EUR 0.28 (0.27).
Financial Position and Cash Flows
In January-June 2009, the Group reported cash flows of EUR 87.7
million (EUR 14.6 million) from operating activities. Inventories
declined from the year end by 19%, or by EUR 60.0 million. Cash flow
after investments was EUR 49.5 million (EUR -65.7 million). The cash
flow effect from expansion and improvement investments was EUR -26.4
million (EUR -67.8 million). Cash flow from acquisitions was EUR -3.7
million (EUR -3.9 million).
At the end of June, the Group's net debt stood at EUR 1,033.7 million
(December 31, 2008: EUR 1,049.1 million). Net debt declined mainly
due to the stronger cash flows. Currency exchange rates fluctuations
reduced net debt by some EUR 4 million.
At the period-end, interest-bearing liabilities stood at EUR 1,195.1
million. Fixed-rate loans accounted for 49% of total interest-bearing
loans. The average interest rate on the Group's interest-bearing
liabilities was 5.7% (5.2%). At the end of June, the duration of the
Group's interest-bearing loan portfolio was 16 months (December 31,
2008: 17 months).
The unused amount of the EUR 750 million revolving credit facility
that falls due in 2012 was EUR 313.3 million at the end of June, or
42% of the total amount. Short-term liabilities maturing in the next
12 months amounted to EUR 159.7 million at the end of June, with
commercial papers issued in the Finnish markets representing EUR
100.3 million and repayments of long-term loans representing EUR 44.4
million. Cash and cash equivalents totaled EUR 161.4 million on June
30, 2009. Based on its current structure, the Group will encounter no
significant refinancing needs in 2009-2010, since the current loan
arrangements cover its financing needs. The terms of the revolving
credit facility and other major bilateral loan agreements require
that the Group's equity ratio must be more than 25%.
At the end of June, the equity ratio stood at 35% (December 31, 2008:
34%), while gearing was 104% (December 31, 2008: 107%). Gearing
declined as a result of the decrease in net liabilities and the
increase in equity. The net impact of currencies on shareholders'
equity was approximately EUR 2 million. In April, after the Annual
General Meeting, Kemira Oyj paid out EUR 30.3 million in dividends.
The Group's net financial expenses for January--June totaled EUR 26.7
million (EUR 25.1 million). The increase in net financial expenses
from the comparison period can be attributed to higher average
liabilities.
Capital Expenditure
Gross capital expenditure, excluding acquisitions, amounted to EUR
36.1 million (EUR 87.5 million). Expansion investments represented
around 44% of capital expenditure excluding acquisitions, improvement
investments around 29%, and maintenance investments around 27%.
Full-year capital expenditure excluding acquisitions is expected to
remain below depreciation.
Group depreciation came to EUR 59.8 million (EUR 67.0 million).
Cash flow from the sale of assets was EUR 1.6 million (EUR 11.1
million). The Group's net capital expenditure totaled EUR 38.2
million (EUR 80.3 million).
Research and Development
In January-June, research and development expenditure totaled EUR
25.0 million (EUR 30.9 million), accounting for 2% (2%) of revenue.
Human Resources
The number of Group employees totaled 9,139 at the end of June
(10,673).
Near-Term Risks and Uncertainty Factors
The key risks and uncertainty factors affecting Kemira's business are
related to general economic developments and their impact on the
demand for Kemira's products.
Sharp fluctuations in global electricity and oil prices will affect
raw material prices and, therefore, be reflected in Kemira's
performance.
If the industrial by-products Kemira uses as raw materials were to be
in short supply or even run out entirely, this could have a negative
effect on Kemira's results, especially in Water.
With progressive implementation of the REACH legislation, the number
of raw materials and their suppliers may be reduced, which could
raise Kemira's raw material costs. Also, registration of Kemira's
own products under REACH may be more expensive than anticipated,
especially if costs cannot be shared with other companies.
Furthermore, currency exchange rate volatility in Kemira's key
currencies may affect the Group's figures.
A detailed account of Kemira's risk management principles and
practices is available at the company's website, www.kemira.com. An
account of financial risks was published in the Notes to the Accounts
section of the Financial Statements for 2008. Kemira's environmental
report discusses environmental and accident risks.

The Paper segment's revenue in April-June 2009 shrank by 8% to EUR
221.6 million (EUR 241.1 million) as demand in customer industries
plummeted. The currency exchange effect had a positive impact on
revenue of approximately EUR 3 million.
The consumption of paper used in magazines and newspapers and the
number of printed merchandizing items has fallen, particularly in the
traditional markets in Europe and North America. To adapt production
to this weaker demand, the Paper segment's customers in the paper
industry have cut back and shut down capacity and cleared stocks. In
addition, the general economic slowdown has been reflected in the
global demand for packaging boards.
Operating profit excluding non-recurring items for April-June totaled
EUR 8.0 million (EUR 7.6 million). Fixed cost savings and increases
in sales prices helped compensate for the decline in sales volumes.
Variable costs increased by some EUR 3 million in April-June 2009
compared to the same period in 2008.
In January 2009, Kemira and the Chinese company Tiancheng Ltd. set up
a joint venture, Kemira-Tiancheng Chemicals (Yanzhou) Co., Ltd, to
produce AKD wax, and adhesives derived from this wax, for the paper
and board industry. Kemira has a 51 per cent holding in the joint
venture and Tiancheng 49 per cent. The joint venture has started off
according to the plan.
Kemira has been taking measures over a period of several years to
adjust its pulp and paper chemicals business to the increasingly
challenging chemicals market. In addition to shorter temporary
production shut-downs, AKD wax production in Vaasa, Finland, was shut
down in March 2009. Over the last few years, six production
facilities have been shut down in North America, and this year Kemira
will shut down its polymer production in Columbus, USA.
In January-June, the Paper segment's revenue fell by 9% to EUR 446.6
million (EUR 488.8 million). The currency exchange effect had a
positive impact on revenue of approximately EUR 6 million. Operating
profit excluding non-recurring items was EUR 15.5 million (EUR 20.0
million). Variable costs in January-June were approximately EUR 14
million higher than in the same period in 2008.

The Water segment's revenue in April-June 2009 rose by 11% to EUR
160.7 million (EUR 144.4 million). Organic growth in local currencies
was 5%. Revenue growth in the second quarter could be largely
attributed to price increases enforced in response to the significant
increase in raw material prices last year. Acquisitions contributed
approximately EUR 7 million to the growth in revenue.
Demand for municipal water treatment products remained healthy. In
the industrial water treatment business, demand has decreased in some
customer industries due to lower capacity utilization rates, but in
other industries, such as the food industry and power production,
demand for water treatment chemicals has been stable. Total delivery
volumes fell slightly in April-June 2009 compared to the same period
a year earlier.
Operating profit excluding non-recurring items was EUR 18.2 million
(EUR 4.7 million). Variable costs decreased in April-June by
approximately EUR 3 million compared to the same period in 2008.
Acquisitions contributed approximately EUR 2 million to the growth in
operating profit. Fixed cost savings also boosted the operating
profit.
The Water segment's revenue in January-June increased by 11% to EUR
311.4 million (EUR 280.7 million). Revenue growth could be largely
attributed to the price increases negotiated in the second half of
last year. Acquisitions contributed approximately EUR 13 million to
revenue growth. The currency exchange effect had an approximately EUR
3 million positive impact on revenue. Operating profit excluding
non-recurring items was EUR 28.6 million (EUR 10.8 million). Variable
costs increased in January-June by approximately EUR 2 million
compared to the same period in 2008. Acquisitions contributed
approximately EUR 3 million to the growth in operating profit.

The Oil & Mining segment's revenue in April-June declined by 17% and
totaled EUR 55.2 million (EUR 66.8 million). Revenue fell as a result
of weaker demand especially in the mining industry. The currency
exchange effect had an approximately EUR 4 million positive impact on
revenue.
In the oil and gas industry, high oil stocks and weak demand as well
as concerns about the path of economic recovery undermined prices. As
a result, upstream operations were at the lowest level in more than a
year and demand for oil field chemicals remained low during the
quarter. Also in the sub-segment Minings, volumes and prices remained
low due to the recession's impact.
Operating profit excluding non-recurring items in April-June was EUR
3.2 million (EUR 2.4 million). Variable costs decreased in April-June
by approximately EUR 3 million compared to the same period in 2008.
At the same time, however, lower sales volumes pushed operating
profit down. Operating profit as a share of revenue rose to 5.8% from
3.6% a year earlier.
In January-June, the Oil & Mining segment's revenue fell by 18% to
EUR 109.6 million (EUR 134.3 million) due to weak demand. The
currency exchange effect had an approximately EUR 8 million positive
impact on revenue. Operating profit excluding non-recurring items was
EUR 5.2 million (EUR 4.3 million). Variable costs in January-June
were approximately EUR 5 million lower than in January-June in 2008.
Oil & Mining's business is based on Kemira's water competence and
water treatment product range. It offers chemical extraction and
process solutions for the oil and mining industries, where water
plays a central role. Oil & Mining makes use of Kemira's existing
organization, production facilities, and R&D network to strengthen
its presence outside North America.

Tikkurila's revenue in April-June declined by 21% and totaled
EUR 162.4 million (EUR 205.7 million). The decrease is associated
with the general economic recession, which caused a slowdown in both
new construction and the sales of building materials and resulted in
more sluggish housing sales in all key markets. The currency exchange
effect had an approximately EUR 25 million negative impact on
revenue. Acquisitions had a positive impact on revenue of some EUR 3
million.
Operating profit excluding non-recurring items for April-June was EUR
24.5 million (EUR 29.7 million). Lower sales volumes in particular
pushed operating profit down. The currency exchange effect had an
approximately EUR 3 million negative impact on operating profit.
Variable costs increased by some EUR 7 million compared to the same
period in 2008 but at the same time fixed cost savings improved the
operating profit.
The annual savings target of Tikkurila's cost savings program
launched in January is EUR 25 million. The mandatory co-determination
negotiations in Finland were concluded on April 15, 2009. The
organizational streamlining and savings program will lead to a
reduction of 163 employees in Finland. Savings programs are also
being enforced in other operating countries and cost levels are being
adjusted to lower demand. Due to Tikkurila's cost savings program,
approximately EUR 2.4 million in non-recurring costs was booked in
the second quarter.
The operations of the logistics and service center in Mytishchi near
Moscow, which came on stream in February, have started out well. The
center now houses all of Tikkurila's decorative paints and industrial
paints operations in the Moscow region and features facilities for
customer training. This center will further improve Tikkurila's
customer services in Moscow and the surrounding area.
In May, Tikkurila acquired the remaining 30% of the shares in two St
Petersburg-based industrial coatings companies from their founders
and previous management. OOO Gamma Industrial Coatings manufactures
coatings for the metal industry and OOO Tikkurila Powder Coatings
manufactures powder coatings. Their combined revenue totals
approximately EUR 10.7 million. After the transaction, Tikkurila has
a 100% holding in both companies.
In June, Tikkurila's Swedish subsidiary Alcro-Beckers AB became the
first company to receive the Nordic Ecolabel known as "the Swan" for
its exterior paints. Alcro-Beckers has decided to limit 99% of its
paint selection exclusively to water-borne products by the end of
2010. Tikkurila's target is to develop paints and coatings with a
minimal environmental impact.
Due to lower sales volumes, Tikkurila's revenue in January-June fell
by 22% to EUR 273.6 million (EUR 350.9 million). The currency
exchange effect had an approximately EUR 42 million negative impact
on revenue. Acquisitions had a positive impact on revenue of some EUR
5 million. Operating profit excluding non-recurring items was EUR
28.5 million (EUR 41.4 million). The currency exchange effect had an
approximately EUR 4 million negative impact on operating profit.
Variable costs in January-June were some EUR 14 million higher than
in January-June 2008.
Kemira Oyj's Shares and Shareholders
In January-June, the Kemira Oyj share price registered a high of
EUR 8.30 and a low of EUR 4.26, the average price being EUR 5.84. On
June 30, the company's market capitalization, excluding treasury
shares, totaled EUR 824.1 million.
On June 30, the company's share capital totaled EUR 221.8 million and
the number of registered shares was 125,045,000. Kemira holds
3,854,771 treasury shares, accounting for 3.1% of outstanding company
shares and voting rights.
The Board of Directors' Nomination Committee
Kemira Oyj's Board of Directors has assembled a Nomination Committee
to prepare a proposal for the next Annual General Meeting concerning
the composition and remuneration of the Board of Directors. The
Nomination Committee consists of the representatives of the three
largest shareholders as of May 31, 2009, and the Chairman of Kemira
Oyj's Board of Directors as an expert member. The members of the
Nomination Committee are Jari Paasikivi, Managing Director of Oras
Invest Oy; Kari Järvinen, Managing Director of Solidium Oy; Risto
Murto, Chief Investment Officer, Varma Mutual Pension Insurance
Company; and, as an expert member, Pekka Paasikivi, Chairman of
Kemira's Board of Directors.
Damage Claim for Violation of Competition Laws
It has come to Kemira Oyj's attention that Cartel Damage Claims
Hydrogen Peroxide SA (CDC), commissioned by hydrogen peroxide
industry customers, has filed an action against six hydrogen peroxide
manufacturers, including Kemira, for violations of competition law
applicable to the hydrogen peroxide business in the period
1994--2000. CDC issued a press release to this effect on April 23,
2009. Kemira Oyj has not received a summons.
Outlook
In 2009, Kemira will continue the performance improvement measures
launched earlier. The key focus areas in 2009 will be profitability
improvement and reinforcing cash flow and the balance sheet.
The annual savings target of the announced global cost savings
program is more than EUR 85 million. These savings are expected to be
realized in 2009--2010. Tikkurila accounts for EUR 25 million of the
savings target.
The market situation is challenging in many of Kemira's customer
industries. General economic trends are generating major
uncertainties in customers' and Kemira's business operations.
Kemira's revenue in 2009 is expected to fall compared to 2008 due to
reduced demand in customer industries, especially in Tikkurila and in
pulp and paper chemicals. In 2008, Kemira's operating profit in
continuing business operations, excluding non-recurring items, was
EUR 126.3 million. In 2009, operating profit in continuing business
operations, excluding non-recurring items, is expected to increase
from the previous year's level.

The fair values of the instruments
which are publicly traded are based on
market valuation on the date of
reporting. Other instruments have been
valuated based on net present values
of future cash flows. Valuation models
have been used to estimate the fair
values of options.
Nominal values of the financial
instruments do not necessarily
correspond to the actual cash flows
between the counterparties and do not
therefore give a fair view of the risk
position of the Group.
