The market has shown no recovery during the second quarter. Cargo volumes have
stayed low and the revenue has dropped by about 37% compared to January-June
2008. Despite the difficult market situation the company has through certain
significant measures been able to improve its Profit before depreciation and
amortisation (EBITDA) in Q2 2009 by EUR 15.2 million from Q1 2009.
The main items addressed, in addition to the changes in the traffic, were the
surplus tonnage, vessel costs, IT costs, administration costs , headcount and
the sale of non-core assets. Actions in all of these have brought good results
in a very short time, but the work is not yet finished.
The Company
Finnlines is specialising in liner roro/ropax-services. The operations of the
Company are centred on sea transports in the Baltic Sea and North Sea areas and
on providing port services mainly in Finland. Through its subsidiaries and
associated companies, the Group has operations in eight northern European
countries and in Russia. The Group's services are also offered throughout Europe
via an extensive network of agents.
The Company is part of the Italian Grimaldi Group.
Market development
The sharp drop in volumes experienced in the last quarter of 2008 continued
during the first half of the year. During January-May, the Finnish seaborn
imports carried in container, lorry and trailer units fell by 26.7 % and exports
by 29.7% in comparison with the corresponding period of the previous year
(measured in tons). Similarly, the trailer and lorry volumes transported by sea
between the Southern Sweden and Germany declined by 22.9% from previous year.
The passenger traffic between Finland and Germany decreased by 15.2% overall but
the decrease was due to reduced lorry drivers accompanying their vehicles. The
overall passenger traffic between Finland and Sweden increased by about 5.5%.
Finnlines'pure passenger traffic volumes increased by 3 % during the first half
of the year.
Significant events during the reporting period
Traffic
Finnlines has done a lot of changes in different routes in order to optimize the
utilization of its fleet. In mid-February, MS Europalink was moved from the
Malmö-Travemünde route to the Helsinki-Travemünde route. At the same time, MS
Transeuropa was transferred from the Helsinki-Travemünde route to the
Lübeck-St.Petersburg route. In mid-April, MS Finneagle was moved from the
Naantali-Kapellskär route to the Malmö-Travemünde route and further MS Nordlink
was moved from the Malmö-Travemünde route to the Helsinki- Travemünde route.
As from June 1, 2009 the company started-up a set of new, fast and comfortable
Motorways of the Sea for freight and passengers between Finland and Poland
(Helsinki-Gdynia-Helsinki) and between Poland and Germany
(Gdynia-Travemünde-Gdynia). Each of these new services offers three departures
per week in each direction. The Helsinki-Gdynia crossing is performed in under
19 hours (compared to more than 26 hours before, when the connection was only
for cargo); the direct connection Helsinki-Travemünde is completed in less than
27 hours; sailing time on Gdynia-Travemünde is 15 hours.
At the same time, the company has strengthened its services on the key
Travemünde-Helsinki-Travemünde (Germany-Finland) trade by increasing the number
of weekly sailings to ten.
Additionally, as from May 16, Finnlines offers to all its freight customers a
wide range of destinations in 13 Mediterranean countries. This is done in
cooperation with Grimaldi Group. The company has also started a new weekly link
between Helsinki and St. Petersburg that is interconnected with the services
calling all the destinations served by both Finnlines and Grimaldi Lines.
The cargo volumes transported during the first half of the year totalled
approximately 305,000 (429,000 in 2008) units, 17,000 (61,000) cars (not
including cars of the passengers) and, in addition, 981,000 (1,526,000) tonnes
of freight not possible to measure in units. In addition, some 245,000
passengers were transported (around 297,000 in 2008), which figure includes
freight-related passengers. The pure passenger traffic volumes increased by 3 %.
Savings
The fleet capacity was rationalized and employed in a more efficient way also in
reaction to the sharp decline in cargo volumes. In April Finnlines Plc's
subsidiary Hanseatic Shipping sold MS Finnhansa to Grimaldi Group at the market
price of EUR 40 million with a one month's notice call option for repurchase by
Finnlines Plc at the same price. The vessel Finnhansa had been left idle due to
the economic situation and the selling of the vessel will reduce the costs of
Finnlines. The company booked a profit of about EUR 4.4 million on the sale of
the vessel.
During April-July, Finnlines managed to generate considerable savings by
redelivering two and subletting seven chartered ro-ro vessels.
A new purchasing department was established and all purchases are performed and
managed by this department. This move together with general savings program has
proved to be very efficient way to cut expenses partly in the region of about
30%.
There has been temporary lay-offs in the ports where the company is operating
and the number of employees have been reduced in the offices. The effect of
these measures will mostly be shown in the result during the remaining part of
the year.

Finnlines Plc´s President and CEO, Mr.Christer Antson, resigned on 23 March.

Share issue
On 26 May, 2009 the Board of Directors of Finnlines resolved upon a rights
issue, in which the Company offered up to 6,781,993 Company shares to be
subscribed for by the shareholders based on their pre-emptive subscription
rights so that each shareholder of the Company had the pre-emptive right to
subscribe for new shares for the subscription price of EUR 5.50 per share in
proportion to the number of shares in the Company they already hold. The total
maximum amount of the rights issue amounted to up to EUR 37.3 million. The
shares offered for subscription in the Rights Issue represent at maximum
approximately 16.7 per cent of the total number of the Company's shares prior to
the rights issue. The shares were offered to the shareholders of the Company for
subscription in proportion to their shareholdings on 29 May 2009. Each
shareholder received one subscription right for each share. The Subscription
Rights were subject to public trading on NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd. during the
period 4 June - 10 June 2009. A holder of the subscription rights was entitled
to subscribe for one new share for every six subscription rights. The
subscription period commenced on 4 June 2009 and expired on 17 June 2009.
Grimaldi Group had undertaken to ensure that new shares are subscribed in the
rights issue amounting to a value of EUR 24,221,659. The subscription
undertaking given by Grimaldi Group, concerned 4,403,938 New Shares.
The reason for the rights issue was the repayment of the hybrid bond which the
Company issued in spring 2009, the strengthening of the Company's capital
structure and the working capital financing. The prospectus in accordance with
the Finnish Securities Market Act relating to the offering was published at the
beginning of June 2009.
In the rights issue 6,129,079 shares were subscribed. The amount corresponds to
90.4 percent of the offered shares. The gross proceeds raised by Finnlines Plc
in the rights issue were EUR 33,709,935. Shares subscribed for in the offering
were subject to public trading on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd. during 18-25 June
2009 as interim shares. The new 6,129,079 Finnlines Plc shares subscribed for
were registered with the Finnish Trade Register on 25 June 2009. The new shares
carry shareholders´ rights from the date of registration. The new shares were
taken to public trading on NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd. together with the old shares
on 26 June 2009. Following the registration of the new shares with the Trade
Register, the number of Finnlines Plc's shares amounts to 46,821,037 shares and
share capital to EUR 93,642,074.
Special audit
The County Administrative Board of Southern Finland appointed Hannu Niilekselä
(APA) to perform the special audit of accounts and administration of Finnlines
Plc for the reporting period from 1 January, 2007 to 31 December 2007. The
special audit relates to the following matters and operations:
- group contributions granted to subsidiaries
- audit of the fact that no group contribution has been granted
from subsidiaries to the parent company
- dividends paid by subsidiaries to the parent company
- investment programme
- the sale of two vessels by parent company to subsidiaries.
The County Administrative Board rejected Ilmarinen's application in respect of
applying special audit to cover the accounts and administration as whole for the
reporting period from 1 January, 2007 to 31 December 2007, only above mentioned
matters should be included in special audit. At the end of June 2009 the audit
was going on.
Fairway dues
The Administrative Court of Helsinki has rendered three decisions, today final,
based on which it can be firmly argued that the Acts on the fairway dues in
force until 1 January 2006 were not in accordance with the Community
legislation. On the basis of this, the company has applied for refund of fairway
dues for 2005, amounting to EUR 2.7 million. This sum is supposed to be refunded
during autumn 2009 and is booked during the first quarter in other operating
income. Finnlines will also apply for refund for other years for which the
documents are available. At this stage, no estimates of the amounts nor the
handling time can be given.

to Naantali. As a result, approximately 4 m3 of light fuel oil was leaked from
the vessel into the sea between the Åland Sea and the Port of Naantali. The
Finnish authorities initiated investigations on 30 March 2009 and the
investigation is still pending. The vessel or the Company has not received any
notice or information on any environmental damage. The Company immediately
started its own investigations and is working in cooperation with the
authorities in order to clarify the matter. Possible damages are covered by the
Company's P&I Insurance.
Outlook for the remaining part of 2009
The rapidly deteriorated economic conditions in Europe and the whole world
impacted Finnlines operations during the first half of the year. The Company has
responded to the sharply dropped cargo volumes by rationalizing and employing
the tonnage in a much more efficient way, cost-saving initiatives, personnel
adjustments and divestments. The market conditions are supposed to remain
weak for the rest of the year. However, the company will benefit from the
continuing measures of cost-efficiency on the major fields of cost drivers,
synergies found on a total Group level, chartering out excessive tonnage and
redelivery of tonnage by the end of the year. The savings from these actions
will mostly be shown in the result during the remaining part of 2009.
The Company expects that the improvement in the earnings which has taken place
in the second quarter compared to the first quarter will continue for the
remaining part of the year.
The next interim report for the 3rd quarter and 1 January - 30 September 2009
will be published on 4 November 2009.

Related Party Transactions
The Board of Directors of Finnlines Plc resolved to issue a hybrid bond in order
to strengthen the Group's capital structure on 23 March. The principal amount of
the bond was EUR 21 million and the coupon of the bond is 12 per cent per annum.
The bond was targeted to main shareholders. Eur 18 million was subscribed by
companies related to Grimaldi Group.
In April Finnlines Plc's subsidiary Hanseatic Shipping sold MS Finnhansa to
Grimaldi Group at the market price of EUR 40 million with a one month's notice
call option for repurchase by Finnlines Plc at the same price.
During Q2 Group has sublet three roro vesels to the Grimaldi Group. Subletting
contracts are not exceeding one year's time and are done at current market price
level.
Otherwise there were no material related party transactions during the reporting
period.
Reporting
The interim report includes a summary of the financial statements for the period
in accordance with the IAS 34. This interim report is unaudited.
Changes in Accounting Principles
The Group started to report according to the IAS 1 standard, Presentation of
Financial Statements, from reporting period beginning on 1 January 2009. The
revised standard mainly change the way the financial statements are presented.
Change in IAS 1 has an impact mainly on the presentation of the profit and loss
account and the statement of changes in shareholders' equity.
The Group investigated during 2008 the impact of the new IFRS 8 Operating
Segments standard on the segment information to be published. According to IFRS
8, segment information to be presented has to be based on internal reporting
provided to Group management and on the same accounting principles used in this
reporting. Group management follows up the profitability of the business and
makes the most important business and asset allocation decisions based on the
segment structure used earlier. Thus adoption of IFRS 8 did not change the
information to be presented notably. Segment information is based on the
internal reporting structure of the Group. The Group started to apply the new
standard as of 1 January 2009.
Otherwise the accounting principles are the same as in the financial statements
of 2008.
