Metso Corporations interim review, January-June 2005:
STRONG PERFORMANCE CONTINUED; FINANCIAL TARGETS FOR 2005 TO BE
EXCEEDED
(Helsinki, Finland, July 27, 2005) Metso Corporation (NYSE: MX; OMX: MEO)
|
|
Metso Corporations net sales in January-June increased by 15 percent and totaled EUR 1,922 million (1-6/2004: EUR
1,672 million). |
|
|
|
The operating profit (EBIT) strengthened further in the second quarter and was EUR 83 million. January-June operating
profit was EUR 138 million, or 7.2 percent of net sales (EUR 37.4 million and 2.2%). |
|
|
|
Earnings per share were EUR 0.75 (EUR 0.03 negative). |
|
|
|
The order backlog from continuing operations increased by 27 percent from the year end, and was EUR 2,157 million at
the end of June (Dec. 31, 2004: EUR 1,705 million). New orders were received worth EUR 2,292 million (EUR 2,239
million). |
|
|
|
Net cash generated by operating activities was EUR 124 million. |
|
|
|
Return on capital employed (ROCE) was 17.3 percent (4.6%) and return on equity (ROE) 21.0 percent (0.9% negative). |
|
|
|
Gearing was 25.8 percent at the end of June (Dec. 31, 2004: 49.7%). |
|
|
|
It is estimated that Metso Corporations net sales for 2005 will increase to approximately EUR 4.1 billion, and the
financial targets set for 2005 will be exceeded. |
This interim review is prepared in accordance with IFRS. Metso adopted IFRS at the beginning
of 2005.
In 2004 and 2005, Metso has focused on improving its profitability and strengthening its
balance sheet. The new business concepts and restructuring measures are now yielding good results.
This provides a solid foundation for the further evolution of Metso, says Jorma Eloranta,
President and CEO of Metso Corporation.
We will continue efforts toward operational excellence in all business areas, in particular in
Metso Paper. At the same time, the management agenda will be increasingly shifted toward profitable
growth, starting from Metso Automation and Metso Minerals. We primarily target organic growth,
notably in the emerging markets. We will also be investigating complementary add-on acquisitions to
strengthen our competitiveness as well as our product and service offering. Overall we are pleased
with the progress made this year. We feel that there remains a lot of opportunity in Metso for
growth and further improvement, says Eloranta.
The demand for Metsos main products was good in the second quarter. The good capacity utilization
rates of the pulp and paper industry contributed to a positive demand for Metso Papers rebuilds
and aftermarket operations. Also the markets for new paper machine became more active, and Metso
booked two new paper machine orders in the second quarter.
In the construction and civil engineering industry, demand for aggregates and consequently for
Metso Minerals crushing and screening equipment and aftermarket services was good in Europe and
Asia and excellent in North America. Demand for Metso Minerals mining products remained good.
Demand for the products and services of Metso Automation continued to be good in the power, oil and
gas industry, and satisfactory in the pulp and paper industry.
Metsos operating profit improved significantly on the comparison period and was EUR 138.0 million,
or 7.2 percent of net sales. Metso Minerals profitability continued to improve. Also Metso Papers
profitability improved clearly on the comparison period, due to improved efficiency and capacity
utilization. Metso Automations profitability remained good.
Short-term outlook
The demand for rebuilds and aftermarket services in the pulp and paper industry are expected to
remain good. Also investments in new production lines are anticipated to gradually pick up, mostly
in China and South America. Comprehensive road network development projects are estimated to
maintain the demand for aggregates production equipment on a good level. The demand in the mining
industry is estimated to remain strong, though the investment activity is anticipated to somewhat
level out due to the general shortage of experienced management and other resources.
The good market outlook, the measures aimed at streamlining the cost structure, the strengthened
order backlog and the first half-year result will support a continuation of the favorable profit
trend. Metso Minerals and Metso Automation are expected to clearly surpass the operating profit
targets set for 2005. Metso Papers operating profit target is challenging because profit is
burdened by the weak profitability and restructuring costs in the Tissue business. It is estimated
that Metso Ventures operating profit will be slightly lower than its target due mainly to
structural changes.
The financial targets set for Metso Corporation in 2005 are an operating margin that is 6 percent
of net sales and a 12 percent return on capital employed. It is estimated that the Corporations
net sales for 2005 will increase to approximately EUR 4.1 billion and that the financial targets
set for 2005 will be exceeded.
Metsos strategic objectives and financial targets will be discussed in more detail in the Capital
Markets Day at the end of August.
Metso is a global technology corporation serving customers in the pulp and paper industry,
rock and minerals processing, the energy industry and selected other industries. In 2004, the net
sales of Metso Corporation were approx. EUR 4 billion, and it has some 22,000 employees in more
than 50 countries. Metsos shares are listed on the Helsinki and New York Stock Exchanges.

Metso adopted the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) at the beginning of 2005. The
transition to IFRS has been described in the Notes to the Interim Review.
Metsos operating environment
In the pulp and paper industry markets the price of chemical pulp turned to a decline. In Europe,
the prices for printing paper rose slightly, but were still clearly below the prices targeted by
producers. In North America, paper prices continued their moderate increase. The overall capacity
utilization rates of pulp and paper industry machinery were good, but in Finland a dispute over the
paper industry collective bargaining agreement resulted in a shutdown of mills in May-June.
As in the previous quarters, the investment activity in the mining industry continued to be good,
although the rise in prices of both metals and iron scrap leveled off. Due to a shortage of
experienced management and other resources the time required to implement investments in the mining
industry has been lengthened and investment decision-making has slowed. The demand for aggregates
continued to be good in Europe, North America and Asia due to investments in construction and civil
engineering.
The continuing high price of crude oil kept investments in the energy, oil and gas industry at the
good level of the first quarter.
Demand for Metsos products
The good capacity utilization rates of the pulp and paper industry contributed to a positive demand
for Metso Papers machinery rebuilds and aftermarket services. After a lengthy quiet period, the
markets for new paper machines became slightly more active, and Metso booked two new paper machine
orders in the second quarter. The tissue machine markets clearly improved, and Metso Paper received
several orders for small machines though the price level was weak. Major investments continued in
the pulp industry in South America, and the demand for pulping line rebuilds was strong in all
market areas.
The demand for Metso Minerals construction and civil engineering equipment was good in Europe and
Asia and excellent in North America. The demand for mining industry equipment remained excellent in
South America, Asia and the Pacific region. Demand for metals recycling equipment continued strong.
The high capacity utilization of mines and quarries continued to keep the demand for aftermarket
and maintenance services good.
Markets for Metso Automations energy, oil and gas industry products continued to be good. In
contrast, demand for pulp and paper industry products was satisfactory. The demand for field
equipment was good in North America and Asia, whereas in Europe demand weakened a little. The
demand for process automation systems was satisfactory.
Orders received and order backlog
In January-June 2005, the value of orders received by Metso Corporation totaled EUR 2,292 million,
an increase of 2 percent from January-June 2004. The orders received in the comparison period
included a large order for an SC magazine paper line for Stora Ensos Kvarnsveden mill in Sweden.
The Corporations order backlog of continuing operations increased by 27 percent from the end of
2004 and was EUR 2,157 million at the end of June. The order backlog of continuing operations
increased by 14 percent compared with the order backlog on June 30, 2004.
Major orders received by Metso Paper included papermaking line orders in China and Indonesia, a
rebuild of a fine paper machine in Germany and a fiber line for a new bamboo pulp mill in China.
The orders received by Metso Minerals comprised of numerous smaller projects, equipment and
aftermarket deliveries. Metso
Automations most significant orders included the delivery of large energy automation systems to
Russia.
Metso Paper accounted for 39 percent, Metso Minerals 41 percent, Metso Automation 13 percent and
Metso Ventures 7 percent of orders received.
The relative share of orders from Asia and South America increased the most compared with
January-June 2004. 41 percent (50% in 1-6/04) of orders originated from Europe, 21 (20) percent
from North America, 23 (16) percent from Asia-Pacific, 11 (9) percent from South America and 4 (5)
percent from the rest of the world.
Net sales
Metsos net sales in January-June increased significantly and totaled EUR 1,922 million, up 15
percent on the comparison period. Net sales grew in all business areas. The growth was strongest in
Metso Minerals where net sales rose by 22 percent compared with January-June 2004. Aftermarket
operations accounted for 39 percent (43% in 1-6/04) of the Corporations net sales (excluding Metso
Ventures).
Of the net sales, 40 percent came from the deliveries of Metso Paper, 39 percent from Metso
Minerals, 14 percent from Metso Automation and 7 percent from Metso Ventures.
Compared with January-June 2004, the relative share of net sales increased the most in North and
South America. 46 percent (41% in 1-6/04) of net sales came from Europe, 21 (22) percent from North
America, 18 (24) percent from Asia-Pacific, 10 (7) percent from South America and 5 (6) percent
from the rest of the world.
Result
The Corporations operating profit improved significantly on the comparison period and was EUR
138.0 million, or 7.2 percent of net sales (EUR 37.4 million, or 2.2% of net sales in 1-6/04).
Metso Minerals profitability continued to improve and Metso Papers profitability clearly
increased on the comparison period, due to improved efficiency and better capacity utilization
rates. Metso Automations profitability remained good. Metso Ventures operating profit turned
positive.
Metsos net financial expenses were EUR 24 million including
nonrecurring expenses of EUR 5 million due to early repayment
of loans (EUR 27 million in 1-6/04).
Metsos income from continuing operations before taxes was EUR 114 million. No deferred tax assets
have been booked with respect to the losses sustained in the previous years of Metsos U.S.
operations, which reduces the Corporations taxation rate (see Notes). The Corporations taxation
rate is estimated to be around 24 percent in 2005.
The distributable profit, i.e. the net income for the review period, was EUR 104 million. Earnings
per share from continuing operations was EUR 0.63, while earnings per share from continuing and
discontinued operations was EUR 0.75.
Metso Corporations return on capital employed (ROCE) in January-June was 17.3 percent (4.6% in
1-6/04).

Metso Papers net sales in January-June were EUR 796 million, up 12 percent on the comparison
period. The growth was due to an increase in paper machinery deliveries. Aftermarket and
maintenance services accounted for 34 percent of the net sales (38 % in 1-6/04). The relative
proportion of the aftermarket business decreased on the comparison period due to the increase in
deliveries of new machines and rebuilds. Measured in euros, the volume of both aftermarket
operations and machine rebuilds grew.
Metso Papers operating profit was EUR 37.5 million, or 4.7 percent of net sales. The efficiency
improvement measures and an improved capacity utilization rate clearly raised profitability.
The comparison periods operating profit was burdened by nonrecurring costs. The results of
the Paper and Fiber business lines, in particular, have improved. The Tissue business line still
recorded a loss.
The program aimed at renewing Metso Papers business concept and streamlining its cost structure
(MP50) will be brought to a conclusion by the end of 2005. The remaining measures related to the
program are aimed particularly at renewing the business concept and streamlining the cost structure
of the Tissue business. In the second quarter, negotiations were started to reduce approximately 40
people in the Karlstad unit, which is a part of the Tissue business line in Sweden. Metso Paper
recorded approximately EUR 5 million in nonrecurring costs related to the program in the second
quarter. The (MP50) programs total expenses are estimated to remain under EUR 40 million, of which
approximately EUR 30 million had been recorded by the end of June.
The value of orders received by Metso Paper was 19 percent lower than in the comparison period and
totaled EUR 918 million. The orders received in the comparison period included a large order for an
SC magazine paper line for Stora Ensos Kvarnsveden mill in Sweden. The order backlog at the end of
June was EUR 1,082 million, which was 14 percent higher than at the end of 2004.

The net sales of Metso Minerals clearly increased on the comparison period and totaled EUR 764
million, 22 percent more than in January-June 2004. Due to good demand, delivery volumes increased
particularly in the mining industry, and in crushing and screening equipment. Metso Minerals
aftermarket and maintenance services accounted for 49 percent of net sales (56% in 1-6/04). Due to
a significant number of project and equipment deliveries, the relative proportion of the
aftermarket business was lower than in the comparison period.
The operating profit of Metso Minerals increased to EUR 71.4 million, which was 9.3 percent of net
sales. Increased delivery volumes, the full use of manufacturing capacity and the efficiency
improvement measures of the previous years improved profitability. The strongest improvement in
profitability occurred in the Crushing and Screening business line.
The value of orders received by Metso Minerals increased by 30 percent and totaled EUR 963 million.
Orders from the mining industry doubled from the comparison period. The intake of orders for metals
recycling equipment was also good. Metso Minerals order backlog strengthened by 48 percent from
the end of 2004 and was EUR 826 million at the end of June.

The net sales of Metso Ventures were up by 11 percent on the comparison period and totaled EUR 133
million in January-June. The deliveries of Valmet Automotive and the Foundries increased. Metso
Panelboards deliveries of aftermarket and maintenance services increased by about one third from
the comparison period, but the timing of project deliveries to the latter half of this year reduced
net sales.
Metso Ventures profitability improved and the operating profit turned positive due to the
improved, though still a slight loss, result of Valmet Automotive. Metso Ventures operating profit
for the second quarter also includes EUR 3.6 million in real estate sales gains.
The value of orders received by Metso Ventures clearly improved from the comparison period and rose
to EUR 158 million, mainly due to the increased orders of Metso Panelboard and the Foundries and
the increased production by Valmet Automotive. Metso Ventures order backlog improved by 33 percent
from the end of 2004 and was EUR 88 million at the end of June.
Cash flow and financing
In January-June, Metso Corporations net cash generated by operating activities was EUR 124
million. EUR 12 million was committed to net working capital. Due to the growth in business volume,
more capital was tied up in net working capital in the second quarter, especially in Metso
Minerals. The Corporations free cash flow was EUR 107 million (EUR 55 million in 1-6/04).
Net interest-bearing liabilities decreased by EUR 202 million from the beginning of the year and
totaled EUR 293 million at the end of June. During the second quarter, EUR 93 million in bonds and
other loans was prematurely repaid. This caused a nonrecurring addition to financial expenses of
EUR 5 million, while corresponding savings will be achieved later. Dividends of EUR 48 million were
paid for 2004.
Gearing, i.e. the ratio of net interest-bearing liabilities to shareholders equity, was 25.8
percent, compared with 49.7 percent at the beginning of the year. Shareholders equity increased,
as a result of both the improved net income and a capital increase of EUR 72 million arising from
the stock option programs. In addition, the divestiture of Metso Drives decreased net
interest-bearing liabilities. Metsos equity to assets ratio was 34.3 percent at the end of June.
Moodys Investors Service confirmed Metsos existing long-term Ba1 credit rating and changed the
rating outlook from negative to stable on February 25, 2005. Standard & Poors Ratings Services has
confirmed Metsos existing long-term BB+ corporate rating, the BB rating on bonds issued and the
EMTN program, as well as the B rating on short-term credits, and has kept the rating outlook as
stable.
Capital expenditure
Metsos gross capital expenditure, including acquisitions, totaled EUR 47 million (EUR 41 million
in 1-6/04). Total capital expenditure was less than depreciation. Metso made investments to
increase foundry capacity in Finland, Brazil, South Africa and India. Metso Minerals initiated
investments in a production plant and logistic center in Columbia, South Carolina, USA, to
significantly increase local manufacturing capacity and to concentrate logistical functions in one
location. In May, Metso Minerals launched a project, expected to last several years, to build a
comprehensive ERP (enterprise resource planning) system.
Divestitures
In March, Metso reached an agreement on the divestiture of its mechanical power transmission
equipment business (Metso Drives) to CapMan, a private equity investor. Metso Drives Oy and its
foreign subsidiaries were transferred to the ownership of funds managed/advised by CapMan on April
8, 2005. The debt-free price of the transaction was EUR 97 million. The sales gain related to the
divestiture and Metso Drives net result in the first quarter, together totaling EUR 17 million,
are reported in the income statement on the Discontinued operations line, below the net result of
Continuing operations.
Research and development
Metsos research and development expenses in January-June totaled EUR 47 million (EUR 53 million in
1-6/04), representing 2.4 percent of the Corporations net sales.
During the review period, Metso Paper launched the SuperKit upgrade package, containing new
equipment solutions, for continuous cooking digesters in pulp production. The second quarter saw
the start-up, ahead of schedule, of the worlds largest and technologically most advanced
OptiConcept uncoated fine paper line, delivered by Metso Paper for UPMs Changshu mill in China.
Metso Minerals launched the new Lokotrack LT200HP crushing unit equipped with a cone crusher which
is specifically designed for secondary and fine crushing. The unit can process 250 tph. Due to its
interactive, intelligent automation system, the equipment optimizes the quantity of the end product
and ensures high quality.
During the review period, Metso Automation launched a new rotary pulp consistency transmitter and
online analyzer for pulp quality, which expands the range of consistency transmitters to cover all
the pulp and papermaking processes.
Personnel
At the end of June, Metso Corporations continuing operations employed 22,380 persons, which was
475 more than at the end of 2004. Of these, approximately 600 were seasonal workers.
The Corporation employed 38 percent of its personnel in Finland, 11 percent in other Nordic
countries, 13 percent in other European countries, 16 percent in North America, 7 percent in
Asia-Pacific, 9 percent in South America and 6 percent in the rest of the world.
Changes in the top management
Metso Corporations Board of Directors appointed Risto Hautamäki as President of Metso Paper and a
member of the Metso Executive Team as of April 1, 2005. Metso Papers Executive Vice President
Bertel Karlstedt will resign from Metso on August 31, 2005.
Share capital and market capitalization
As a result of the registration of share subscriptions made with year 2000 and 2001 stock options,
Metsos share capital increased to EUR 240,812,843.80 on May 11, 2005. A total of 4,538,869 shares
were subscribed with Metso Corporations year 2000 stock options and 865,200 shares with year 2001
stock options during a subscription period that ended on April 30, 2005. The number of shares at
the end of June was 141,654,614, of which the Corporation holds 60,841 shares in treasury. The
average number of shares in January-June was 137,652,684.
Metsos market capitalization on the Helsinki Stock Exchange increased by 80 percent on the
comparison period a year earlier and was EUR 2,553 million on June 30, 2005.
Decisions of the Annual General Meeting
Metso Corporations Annual General Meeting, held on April 4, 2005, approved the accounts for 2004
and voted to discharge the members of the Board of Directors and the President and CEO from
liability. The Annual General Meeting approved the Boards proposals concerning authorizations to
repurchase and dispose of the Corporations shares. The Annual General Meeting also authorized the
Board to decide on increasing the share capital by issuing new shares, convertible bonds and/or
stock options. Furthermore, the Annual General Meeting decided to cancel stock options as proposed
by the Board of Directors.
The Annual General Meeting decided to establish a Nomination Committee of the Annual General
Meeting to prepare proposals for the following General Meeting concerning the composition of the
Board of Directors and the remuneration of the Directors. The Nomination Committee comprises the
representatives appointed by Metsos four biggest registered shareholders as of December 1, 2005,
along with the Chairman of the Board as an expert member. Furthermore, the Annual General Meeting
decided to amend the Articles of Association to state that a person aged 68 years or more is not
eligible to be elected to the Board of Directors.
Metso Corporations Annual General Meeting re-elected Matti Kavetvuo as the Chairman of the Board
and Jaakko Rauramo, Chairman of SanomaWSOY Corporation, as the Vice Chairman of the Board. Svante
Adde was elected as a new member of the Board. The Board members re-elected were Maija-Liisa
Friman, President and CEO of Aspocomp Group Oyj, Satu Huber, Director of Finance and Head of the
Finance Division, State Treasury, and Juhani Kuusi, D. Sc. (Tech.).
PricewaterhouseCoopers, a firm of Authorized Public Accountants, was re-elected as the Auditor of
the Corporation.
Pentti Mäkinen, who was elected by Metsos personnel groups, will attend the meetings of Metsos
Board of Directors as a personnel representative invited by the Board, starting from the Annual
General Meeting of April 4, 2005 until the 2006 Annual General Meeting.
The Annual General Meeting decided to distribute a dividend of EUR 0.35 per share for the financial
year that ended on December 31, 2004. The dividend was paid on April 14, 2005.
Short-term outlook
It is expected that, in Metso Papers markets, the demand for rebuilds and aftermarket services
will continue to be good. It is anticipated that the improved capacity utilization rates in
customer industry mills will gradually increase the readiness to also invest in new production
lines. Investments in new machinery are expected to be focused in China and South America.
The demand for Metso Minerals equipment related to aggregates production is expected to remain
good, especially due to comprehensive road network development projects. The demand in
the mining industry is estimated to remain strong, though the investment activity is anticipated to
somewhat level out due to the general shortage of experienced management and other resources.
Metso Automations markets are expected to continue to be good in the energy, oil and gas industry
and satisfactory in the pulp and paper industry.
Metso Minerals and Metso Automation are expected to clearly surpass the operating profit targets
set for 2005. Metso Papers operating profit target is challenging, because profit is burdened by
the weak profitability and restructuring costs in the Tissue business. It is estimated that Metso
Ventures operating profit will be slightly lower than its target due mainly to structural changes.
The financial targets set for Metso Corporation in 2005 are an operating margin that is 6 percent
of net sales and a 12 percent return on capital employed. It is estimated that the Corporations
net sales for 2005 will increase to approximately EUR 4.1 billion and that the financial targets
set for 2005 will be exceeded. The measures aimed at streamlining the cost structure, the
strengthened order backlog and the first half-year result will support a continuation of the
favorable profit trend.
During 2004 and 2005, Metso has focused on improving its profitability and strengthening its
balance sheet. Efforts toward operational excellence will be continued in all business areas, in
particular in Metso Paper. At the same time the management agenda is increasingly shifted toward
profitable growth, starting from Metso Automation and Metso Minerals. Metso is primarily targeting
organic growth, notably in the emerging markets. Steps will also be taken to investigate
complementary add-on acquisitions to strengthen Metsos competitiveness as well as product and
service offering.

Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
Metso adopted the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) at the beginning of 2005. The
principal changes and impact of IFRS on the 2004 income statement and balance sheet were described
in the releases published on March 31, 2005 and April 19, 2005 (quarterly information). The
classification of financial assets and liabilities and the recognition of derivative financial
instruments used for hedging has been done in accordance with IAS 32 and IAS 39 in the opening
balance sheet of January 1, 2005, which is presented in the tables of the Interim Review.
Since Metso published the press releases on its transition to IFRS, the comparative information for
2004 has been changed by separating the power transmission business (Drives), which was divested in
April 2005, from Metsos continuing operations. The net result of the Drives business is also
reported for the comparison year in the line Discontinued businesses, after
Continuing operations.
The operating profit of the IFRS income statement for the comparison year is improved by a
nonrecurring annulment of a disability pension liability of EUR 75
million (excluding the divested Drives business) due to amendments of the Finnish employee pension system (TEL) in December 2004.
The reversal of the pension liability is presented by business area in the tables of the Interim
Review.
The Interim Review has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles
of the IFRS and by applying the same policies as in the above-mentioned releases.
In accordance with IFRS 5, profit or loss on discontinued operations net of taxes and the gain or
loss on their disposal are presented in the income statement separate from continuing operations,
while assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately in the balance
sheet. The discontinued operations reported by Metso were Converting Equipment, the Compaction and
Paving business line (Dynapac) and the Drilling business line (Reedrill) divested in 2004 which
were part of Metso Minerals, and the power transmission business (Drives), which was part of Metso
Ventures, divested in 2005.
