PRESIDENT KAI SEIKKU:
"The demand for silicon wafers was strong during the period under review. The
global business boom experienced in the semiconductor industry and the
increasing use of silicon-based sensors especially in consumer electronics
applications increased the demand. The price level of semiconductor wafers was
on the rise.
Okmetic´s sensor and semiconductor wafer sales grew over 20 percent from the
previous quarter. The long-term investments made by the company in respect of
sensor wafers and particularly within SOI technology are proving to be valuable,
as these markets are growing.
Okmetic expanded its contract manufacturing network during the period under
review. The objective is to continue this trend and achieve a more flexible
production capacity and improved service for customer industries in their
varying economic situations.
A significant proportion of the result in 1H2009 was from polysilicon trading
and license sales but neither of these took place in the first half of the year.
The development in exchange rates benefited Okmetic in the period under review."

MARKETS
Customer industries sensor, semiconductor and solar energy industries
Sensor industry
The development of sensor sales has been influenced by the increased use of
micro sensors in many consumer electronics products. The sale value growth
estimate for the entire year is over 11 percent. Shipments in the second quarter
of 2010 are reflecting this growth rate. The value of sensor sales in 2010 is
expected to exceed the 2008 level. In terms of quantity, the sensor shipments
will rise to a record high level. (iSuppli)
Several microelectromechanical (MEMS) products have developed within the sensor
segment and they have higher growth rates than other sensors.
Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) technology is an example of a rapidly growing sensor
manufacturing technology.
Gyroscopes are an example of the end products that are increasingly used in
consumer products over this year. Their applications include for example mobile
phones and gamepads.
Semiconductor industry
The demand in the semiconductor industry that strengthened in the latter part of
2009 remained very strong. During the first half of 2010, the market situation
has been widely limited by capacity. The demand has been strong in all fields of
semiconductor industry.
The value of sales in the second quarter of the year is estimated to rise to a
record high level.
Despite the capacity limitations, the sales in the semiconductor industry are
expected to grow even 27-30 percent in 2010. Estimates have still been revised
upwards during the second quarter of the year. If these estimations become
reality, the value of sales in the semiconductor industry will clearly surpass
the earlier record high level of year 2008.(SIA, SEMI, IC Insights)
Solar energy industry
Solar cell industry continues its strong growth. Growth estimates have been
revised upwards at the beginning of the year. In 2010, sales in the industry are
generally estimated to grow even 40 percent. The amount of new investment
schemes has started to grow again at the beginning of the year. (iSuppli)
Governmental decisions on subsidies have a significant impact on the solar
energy industry. This brings certain insecurity to the future development of the
market.
Silicon wafer market
The market development of the silicon wafer industry is monitored in terms of
surface area. According to the report published in May by SMG, the group of
silicon wafer suppliers in SEMI, the volume of wafer shipments in the silicon
wafer industry in the first quarter of 2010 soared up to 2,214 million square
inches, which was 5 percent higher than the shipment volume in the previous
quarter. The total surface area of silicon wafers in the first quarter of 2010
was 136 percent greater than in the corresponding period in 2009. The shipment
volumes in the first quarter are the greatest since the third quarter of 2008
and thus returning to the level preceding the economic recession. The wafer
market is estimated to have remained strong during the second quarter of the
year.
The demand volume for silicon wafers follows the shipment volumes of customer
industry. Along with the increase in the semiconductor and sensor industries,
the demand in the silicon wafer market is expected to remain strong in 2010.
Okmetic
Okmetic´s sensor and semiconductor wafer sales in the second quarter grew over
20 percent compared to the previous quarter. Okmetic has still succeeded to
increase its market share in the product areas which are important to the
company. Okmetic is a forerunner in offering the sensor industry SOI wafers
which are a growing trend. The announcement in February by Okmetic to invest in
additional capacity for SOI wafers meets the growing demand in the market.
Contract manufacturing network is being expanded and the amount of wafers
produced by contract manufacturers is increasing. The target is that at the end
of 2010 contract manufacturing covers 40 percent of all wafers delivered. The
customer evaluations of 200mm products have proceeded and shipment volumes are
on the rise in the second half of the year.
Silicon crystal shipments based on long-term agreements and negotiations for new
technology sales contracts were continued.
PROJECTIONS FOR THE NEAR FUTURE
Semiconductor and sensor wafer shipments are estimated to continue their growth
during the third quarter of the year and crystal shipments remain at the level
of the beginning of the year.
Net sales for 2010 are expected to amount to around 75 million euro or slightly
more. The operating profit for the year is expected to be in accordance with the
company's 10 percent long-term objective. Net cash flow from operations is
expected to remain strong. Reaching these estimates means that the current
positive market situation must not see any significant changes in the latter
part of the year.
SALES
Okmetic´s net sales increased by 27.6 percent (decreased by 16.6%) from the
previous year, amounting to 36.2 million euro (28.4 million euro). The growth of
net sales was supported by globally strong demand of the semiconductor industry.
Okmetic´s market share grew in the product areas which are important to the
company.

Semiconductors 42% 26% 42% 22% 31%
Technology 13% 36% 14% 40% 28%
The sensor wafer shipments were around 45 percent greater than in the
corresponding period last year. The proportion of sensor wafers of Okmetic´s
total sales grew.
The general growth in semiconductor sales had an effect especially in the sale
of semiconductor wafers. The shipment volume of these wafers was nearly two and
a half times higher than in the corresponding period in the previous year. The
global market prices for semiconductor wafers are on the rise.
Technology sales have been held back by the current economic situation. After
the major crystal sales agreements signed towards the end of last year and to be
realised in 2010, negotiations on new projects are continued. Net sales in the
second quarter were at half the level of corresponding period in 2009.

Traditionally Okmetic has strong market positions in North America and Europe.
The proportion of North America of the total net sales grew and the proportion
of Europe decreased during the period under review.
PROFITABILITY
In January-June, Okmetic group´s operating profit was 3.2 million euro (1.2
million euro). The operating profit accounted for 8.7 percent (4.3%) of net
sales. The profit for the second quarter was 12.5 percent (5.1%) of net sales.
The change in fair value of derivatives improved the operating profit for the
past quarter by around 0.4 million euro. The profit for the period amounted to
4.0 million euro (1.1 million euro). Earnings per share were 0.24 euro (0.06
euro).
FINANCING
The group´s financial situation is good. The net cash flow from operations
amounted to 4.3 million euro (4.3 million euro). The operating cash flow was
decreased by 2.3 million euro (increased by 0.2 million euro) due to an increase
in working capital available to business operations.
At the beginning of the year, the group had 2.5 million euro (17.4 million euro)
worth of interest-bearing loans. After the additional instalment paid on top of
the standard loan instalment in the second quarter, the group has 1.0 million
euro worth of interest-bearing loans from a banking institution.
At the end of the period, cash and cash equivalents amounted to 9.1 million euro
(17.3 million euro). On 30 June 2010, the group´s cash and cash equivalents
exceeded the interest-bearing liabilities by 8.1 million euro (on 30 June 2009
cash and cash equivalents were 2.9 million higher than liabilities).
Return on equity amounted to 15.9 percent (4.2%). The group´s equity ratio was
77.9 percent (67.7%). Equity per share was 3.13 euro (2.99 euro).
INVESTMENTS
Okmetic´s gross investments amounted to 0.2 million euro (1.4 million euro). On
11 February 2010, the board of directors decided on a 3.5 million euro equipment
investment in expansion of Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) sensor wafer production
scheduled in financial year 2010. The investment reinforces Okmetic´s position
as the sensor wafer market leader.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
The company expensed 1.0 million euro (1.2 million euro) in long-term product
development projects during the financial period. Product development costs
accounted for 2.7 percent (4.3%) of net sales. Product development costs have
not been capitalised. Product development has been allocated to sensor wafers
that are important to Okmetic.
PERSONNEL
On average, Okmetic employed 341 people (2009: 340). At the end of the period,
306 of the group´s employees worked in Finland, 33 in the US and two in Japan.
BUSINESS RISKS IN THE NEAR FUTURE
The most significant factors causing uncertainty for Okmetic´s business in the
near future are related especially to the sensitivity of semiconductor wafer
demand to economic fluctuations and to the rapid and strong changes in the
market situation. The current strong demand may create excessive orders and
stock. Clearing this stock may decrease demand significantly. The company only
has considerable pricing power with its own special products. The pricing of
other wafers is mainly based on global market price. The most common trade
currency in the field is the US Dollar. The group´s result is affected by strong
currency changes against the euro.
The size of the company and the fact that its main production facilities for the
wide range of wafers are located in the euro zone place considerable
expectations for the group´s result. Other challenges to be solved include
maintaining our market leadership position in our special fields, together with
meeting the demand gearing towards bigger wafer sizes.
The company risks and uncertainty factors are dealt more profoundly in the
company´s annual report of 2009.
