Interim Report

Interim Report, January-June/2007

20.7.2007

– The Tulikivi Group’s sales were EUR 36.6 (37.2) million.
– The Group’s profit before taxes was EUR 1.1 (3.3) million.
– The order book amounted to EUR 9.1 (12.6) million at period’s
end.
– Fireplace exports have developed according to plan, with the
exception of exports to Germany.

Sales and result
The Group’s sales amounted to EUR 36.6 million (EUR 37.2 million
in January-June 2006). The Fireplaces Business posted sales of EUR
31.4 (32.7) million, the Natural Stone Products Business sales of
EUR 4.0 (3.8) million and Other Operations sales of EUR 1.2 (0.7)
million. The comparable sales of the Fireplaces Business – that
is, exclusive of ceramic fireplace sales in Q1 – amounted to EUR
27.8 million.

The share of sales accounted for by Finland was EUR 18.7 (17.2)
million, representing 51.1 (46.2) per cent. Exports accounted for
EUR 17.9 (20.0) million. The largest countries for exports were
France and Germany.

The Group’s operating profit was EUR 1.3 (3.4) million. The
Fireplaces Business had an operating profit of EUR 2.8 (5.0)
million, the Natural Stone Products Business an operating profit
of EUR 0.3 (0.1) million and Other Operations an operating loss of
EUR 1.8 (1.7) million.

Consolidated profit before taxes was EUR 1.1 (3.3) million.
Earnings per share amounted to EUR 0.02 (0.07).

The sales of the Fireplaces Business declined due to weaker demand
for fireplaces in Germany and the launch of the new distribution
channel in Finland. Fireplace demand in Germany has been
exceptionally weak in the first part of the year, which is evident
in the decline in both fireplace exports to Germany and total
exports of stone lining for heaters. In addition, the start-up
expenses of the new plant cut into consolidated profit.

Financing and investments
The Group’s financial position is good. The Group’s working
capital increased by EUR 4.8 million during the review period,
mainly due to the decline in trade payables and accrued
liabilities. Working capital has also been tied up in products
slated for delivery in the autumn. Due to the growth in working
capital, the cash flow from operating activities before
investments became negative, EUR -2.1 (4.0) million. The Group’s
net financial expenses amounted to EUR 0.2 (0.2) million.

The equity ratio was 42.6 per cent (44.3 per cent at June 30,
2006). The ratio of interest-bearing net debt to shareholders’
equity, or gearing, was 75.1 (58.5) per cent. Current ratio was
1.6 (1.7). Shareholders’ equity per share amounted to EUR 0.76
(0.74).

The Group’s investments totalled EUR 3.2 (17.2) million during the
report period. The major investments during the review period were
earmarked for production and quarrying machines, opening new
quarries and the distribution channel change.

Resolutions of the Annual General Meeting
Dividend payout
Tulikivi Corporation’s Annual General Meeting held on April 13,
2007, resolved to pay a dividend of EUR 0.090 on Series A shares
and EUR 0.088 on Series K shares.

Administrative bodies
Bishop Ambrosius, Mr. Juhani Erma, Mr. Eero Makkonen, Mrs. Maarit
Toivanen-Koivisto, Mr. Heikki Vauhkonen, Mr. Reijo Vauhkonen and
Mr. Matti Virtaala were elected as members of the Board of
Directors of the parent company and its business subsidiaries.
From amongst its number, the Board elected Mr. Matti Virtaala as
chairman and Mr. Heikki Vauhkonen as vice chairman. The firm of
independent public accountants KPMG Oy Ab of Helsinki was elected
as the auditor.

Authorization to acquire the company’s own shares
The Annual General Meeting authorized the Board of Directors to
acquire the company’s own shares. A maximum of 2,760,397 Series A
shares in the company and 954,000 Series K shares in the company
will be bought back.

Authorization to decide on share issues and the conveyance of the
company’s own shares in the possession of the company and the
granting of special rights that give entitlement to shares as set
forth in Chapter 10, Article 1 of the Companies Act
The Annual General Meeting authorized the Board of Directors to
decide on issuing new shares and the conveyance of own shares in
the company’s possession. New shares can be issued or own shares
held by the company conveyed as follows: a maximum of 5,520,794
Series A shares and 1,908,000 Series K shares.

The authorization also includes the right to issue special rights,
as defined in Chapter 10, Article 1 of the Companies Act,
entitling the right holder to subscribe for shares against payment
or by setting off the receivable.

Amendments to the Articles of Association
The company’s Articles of Association were amended to conform to
the new Companies Act.

Managing director
Mr. Heikki Vauhkonen was appointed as Tulikivi Corporation’s
managing director as from May 28, 2007. A new vice chairman was
not elected to replace him on the Board of Directors. At that
time, Mr. Juha Sivonen was appointed as the head of the Fireplaces
Business.

Merger of Kermansavi Oy into its parent company
The Boards of Directors of Tulikivi Corporation and Kermansavi Oy
decided to merge Kermansavi Oy into Tulikivi Corporation by means
of an absorption merger, as set out in the merger plan signed on
June 29, 2007. The merger aims to clarify the Group structure. The
planned registration date for consummation of the merger is
December 31, 2007.

Risks and uncertainties
The Group’s risks and uncertainties have not changed significantly
during the report period. Changes in the business environment –
such as the recovery of demand in Germany and improved efficiency
in distribution channel operations – have the greatest impact on
the Group’s operations in the short term. Assessments of the
Group’s risks over the long term indicate that its strategic risks
include risks related to its raw material reserves, business
operations as a whole and market position as well as legislative
amendments. Operational risks concern, for instance, products,
distribution channels and processes. For more on this topic, see
the 2006 Annual Report.

Outlook for the future
The growth prospects for construction are good at the annual level
in the Group’s main market areas, supporting growth in demand for
Fireplaces. The efficiency of the new distribution channel in
Finland will increase. Demand for Fireplaces in Germany will grow
in the latter half of the year, but will be lower than last
autumn. This means that the Group’s sales and result will fall
short of the previous year; that said, good earnings are expected.

Changes in segment reporting
As from January 1, 2007, the Group’s business segments are the
Fireplaces Business, Natural Stone Products Business and Other
Operations. The Fireplaces Business includes soapstone and ceramic
Fireplaces as well as stone lining for heaters. The Natural Stone
Products Business includes interior decoration stone products for
households and stone deliveries to construction sites. Other
Operations includes expenses that have not been allocated to the
Group’s business functions and tax and financial expenses as well
as sales of ceramic utensils and the expenses of this business.
