SHORT-TERM OUTLOOK
In 2013, the semiconductor industry's demand is estimated to grow again, and the
sensor industry is forecast to continue on its growth track. However, growth
estimates for semiconductors have been revised downwards during the year due to
the slowing PC market as well as weakening demand for smartphones.
The demand for sensor wafers manufactured by Okmetic is estimated to be fairly
stable throughout 2013. Due to normal seasonal fluctuation, the demand for
semiconductor wafers is slower in the early part of the year. After the slower-
than-anticipated first half, the demand is likely to really pick up as late as
in the third quarter.
Okmetic strives to outgrow the market in its core business as a manufacturer of
demanding silicon wafers. Technology sales, instead, have contracted
significantly as a result of the plummeted price level in the solar cell
industry. This causes a structural change in the company's business. In 2013,
the company's business will mainly consist of silicon wafer sales. However, the
forecast growth of silicon wafer sales will not fully compensate for the steep
decline in technology sales. Hence, the company's net sales will decrease in
2013. Technology sales are reported under the title Other business as of 1
January 2013 due to their diminished weight and varying content.
The company retains its existing guidance, according to which net sales and
operating profit for 2013 are estimated to remain under the level of 2012.
PRESIDENT KAI SEIKKU:
"Okmetic's net sales grew only slightly from the first quarter. The sales in the
company's key focus area, demanding sensor wafers, grew in the second quarter
compared to both the beginning of the year and comparison period last year. Also
the semiconductor wafer sales grew from the first quarter, but remained clearly
below the level reached in the second quarter of last year. The market is slowed
down by, among other things, the steeper-than-anticipated decline in demand for
PCs, as well as weakening of the strongest growth in the smartphone market.
Especially the Japanese market has been soft this year.
Technology sales reported under Other business were more than 6 million euro
lower in the first half than during the comparison period in 2012. This
anticipated change in the company's net sales split is due to the plummeted
price level in solar cell industry. Also going forward, Okmetic will focus on
high added value products, which enable the company to operate in line with its
long-term profitability objectives.
Profitability remained at a good level despite the decline in net sales.
Operating profit was 11.6 percent of net sales in the second quarter and reached
the targeted 10 percent level also in the first half. As in previous years,
Okmetic continues to outperform most of its competitors in the silicon wafer
industry in terms of profitability. The fact that the total result of the
industry is forecast to remain negative for the fifth year in a row this year
illustrates the situation the industry finds itself in.
Okmetic's good profitability is based on several years of investments in sensor
wafers and their commercialisation, as well as successful cost management. Also
the epitaxial wafer production at the Allen plant, which was loss-making last
year as well as in the beginning of this year, turned profitable in the second
quarter.
Growth estimates for the silicon wafer market have been revised downwards during
the year. Demand is estimated to be at its highest this year in the third
quarter. The demand for sensor wafers looks solid, and the almost exceptionally
quiet market for semiconductor wafers is expected to pick up in the latter half
of the year."

MARKETS
Customer industries sensor and semiconductor industry
Sensor industry
The sales value of sensor industry is estimated to grow 10-12 percent in 2013.
In terms of volume, the sensor shipments are likely to clearly reach a new
record this year. The increasing use of micro sensors in several consumer
electronics products has positively influenced sensor sales. For the next few
years, the sales value of sensor industry is estimated to grow 8-13 percent
annually. (IHS, Yole)
Semiconductor industry
As anticipated, the US dollar based sales of the global semiconductor industry
turned into growth in the second quarter of the year. Sales in May were 1.2%
higher than in 2012 (SIA). Market growth is expected to continue in the second
half of the year, and the annual growth rate for the year 2013 is estimated to
end up at 3.5 to 5.0 percent (SIA, IC Insights, Gartner, IDC). Somewhat stronger
growth is expected for the following years (5.1-7.7 %) (SIA, Gartner).
Silicon wafer market
According to the report of SMG, the group of silicon wafer suppliers in SEMI (a
global umbrella organisation for semiconductor materials and equipment
industry), the surface area of silicon wafer shipments in square inches grew in
the second quarter of 2013 from the level in the beginning of the year. The
estimated annual surface growth for 2013 is now around 2.5% (Gartner).
The key customer areas for Okmetic in the silicon wafer market
In line with its strategy, Okmetic seeks niches in the silicon wafer market that
have greater growth than market average, and in which the company has special
expertise. Okmetic supplies primarily 150mm and 200mm wafers. The sensor/MEMS
industry is a key growth area for Okmetic. The MEMS market grows as portable
consumer products, automotive electronics, and industrial process control
increase.
In the semiconductor market, growth areas for Okmetic include discrete and power
semiconductors. In these wafer markets, areas for growth include, among others,
components used in the production of renewable energy, increasing automotive
electronics, portable consumer products, as well as different solutions related
to power supply and efficiency improvement.
CHANGE IN SALES REPORTING PER CUSTOMER AREA
Okmetic has changed its sales reporting per customer area as of the beginning of
2013. According to the new policy, technology sales are reported under the title
Other business because of their diminished weight and varying content.
SALES
In January-June, Okmetic's net sales amounted to 33.4 (41.4) million euro. There
was a decrease of 19.2 percent (decrease of 5.5%) from the comparison period.
The decrease in net sales was mainly due to a considerable decline in Other
business sales already anticipated in the beginning of the year. Net sales in
the second quarter grew only 3.9 percent from the first quarter, as the
partially difficult market situation for semiconductor wafers still continued in
April-June. Okmetic's market share remained stable in the product groups
important to the company.

The demand for sensor wafers continued at a good level in January-June, and the
value of shipments grew 7.1 percent from the corresponding period last year. The
demand for sensor wafers is estimated to continue its steady growth during the
whole year 2013.
In January-June, the semiconductor wafer shipments declined 17.4 percent from
the strong comparison period last year. In the end of the reporting period the
semiconductor industry sales finally started to pick up, and the demand for
semiconductor wafers is estimated to clearly improve in the second half of the
year.
The value of Other business shipments was 1.1 (7.4) million euro in January-
June. The considerable difference is due to the loss of solar crystal sales.

During the first half of the year, the demand was strongest in North America and
Europe. The relative proportion of Asia of net sales considerably diminished in
the reporting period. This was largely due to lower sales in Other business.
Technology sales have been a considerable part of sales to Asia.
PROFITABILITY
April-June
In April-June, Okmetic's operating profit amounted to 2.0 (2.5) million euro,
i.e. 11.6 (11.2) percent of net sales. Profit for the period amounted to 1.4
(2.1) million euro. Basic earnings per share was 0.08 (0.12) euro. Diluted
earnings per share was 0.08 (0.12) euro.
January-June
In January-June, Okmetic's operating profit amounted to 3.3 (4.0) million euro,
i.e. 10.0 (9.8) percent of net sales. Profit for the period amounted to 2.6
(2.8) million euro. Basic earnings per share was 0.15 (0.17) euro. Diluted
earnings per share was 0.15 (0.16) euro.
FINANCING
The company's financial situation is solid. In January-June, net cash flow from
operations amounted to 1.3 (1.7) million euro. The changes in working capital
tied up in operations weakened cash flow from operations by 7.0 (3.7) million
euro. The increase in working capital was mainly due to increased stock as the
company prepared for the busiest season of the year. The reimbursement of income
tax advances from 2012 improved net cash flow for the period by 1.1 million
euro.
On 30 June 2012, the company's interest-bearing liabilities amounted to 12.8
(6.0) million euro.
Okmetic announced in January that it has signed a five-year loan agreement for
10 million euro. The loan is used for the earlier announced investments and
general corporate purposes.
At the end of the reporting period, cash and cash equivalents amounted to 5.0
(6.0) million euro. On 30 June 2013, the company's cash and cash equivalents
were 7.8 million euro lower than interest-bearing liabilities (on 30 June 2012,
cash and cash equivalents were 0.1 million euro higher than interest-bearing
liabilities). The group has ensured liquidity with committed credit facilities
of 6.0 million euro. On 30 June 2013, the committed credit facilities were fully
unused. (On 30 June 2012, 3.0 million euro of the committed credit facilities
was in use.)
Return on equity amounted to 8.4 (9.2) percent. The company's equity ratio was
69.7 (73.2) percent. Equity per share was 3.63 (3.56) euro.
INVESTMENTS
In January-June, Okmetic's capital expenditure amounted to 4.1 (7.0) million
euro. The investments were directed to debottlenecking and automatisation of
wafer production lines as well as expansion of the Vantaa plant.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
In January-June, the company expensed 1.2 (1.1) million euro in product
development projects, corresponding to 3.5 (2.8) percent of net sales. Product
development costs were not capitalised. Product development was directed to SOI
wafers as well as high and low resistivity wafers.
PERSONNEL
On average, Okmetic employed 365 (364) people in January-June. At the end of the
period, Okmetic had 379 (390) employees, of which 337 worked in Finland, 37 in
the US, four in Japan, and one in Hong Kong.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Okmetic Oyj's annual general meeting, which was held on 10 April 2013, adopted
the annual accounts and the consolidated annual accounts for 2012 and discharged
the company's management from liability. It was decided that a dividend of 0.25
euro per share would be distributed for 2012. The dividend was paid on Monday
22 April 2013. The annual general meeting decided also, in accordance with the
proposal of the board of directors, to authorise the board to decide upon its
discretion on the payment of a dividend, should the company's financial
situation permit this. The additional dividend, including all possible separate
decisions on dividend payment, may amount up to a maximum of 0.40 euro per share
and 15,000,000 euro in total. Moreover, the general meeting approved the
proposal of the board of directors to authorise the board to decide on the
repurchase and/or the acceptance as pledge of the company's own shares as well
as on the issuance of shares, the transfer of the company's own shares, and the
issuance of special rights entitling to shares.
It was decided that there would be five members on the company's board of
directors. Mr. Tapani Järvinen, Mr. Hannu Martola, Ms. Mervi Paulasto-Kröckel,
Mr. Mikko Puolakka, and Mr. Henri Österlund were re-elected as members of the
board of directors until the end of the next annual general meeting. The board
of directors elected Henri Österlund as its chairman and Tapani Järvinen as its
vice chairman in its organising meeting held immediately after the annual
general meeting.
Authorised Public Accountant PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy was elected as auditor,
with APA Mikko Nieminen having the principal responsibility.
Authorisations given to the board of directors and other decisions of the annual
general meeting were disclosed in a stock exchange release published on 10 April
2013.
BUSINESS RISKS
There have been no significant changes in the company's near future business
risks and uncertainties.
Okmetic's silicon wafer sales are directed to the sensor and semiconductor
producers in the electronics industry. The demand for semiconductor wafers is
sensitive to economic fluctuations, and changes in the market situation can be
sudden and dramatic. The demand for sensor wafers is more stable. The
proliferation of sensors in consumer electronics applications may, however,
increase the susceptibility of this market too to economic fluctuations. Other
business has in recent years been mainly crystal sales to the solar cell
industry. Okmetic has existing polysilicon purchasing obligations partly until
2015. As the price level of the solar cell market has dropped, the validity of
long-term polysilicon contracts typical of the industry may cause a price risk.
Okmetic's share of the global silicon wafer market is around one percent and the
market prices have a notable effect on the pricing of Okmetic's products. The
company has considerable pricing power only in its own special products. The
pricing of other wafers is largely based on global market price.
Okmetic operates globally, and therefore the company's business operations are
affected by risks related to exchange rate fluctuations, consisting of the cash
flows of purchases and sales. A significant part of sales is conducted in US
dollars. Despite hedging, the company remains exposed to exchange rate
fluctuations.
Substantial volumes of electricity are used in Okmetic's production. Despite
hedging, the company is exposed to fluctuations in the price of electricity.

Fair value estimation
The group's financial instruments that are measured at fair value comprise
derivatives used for hedging and held for trading, and they are classified on
hierarchy level 2.
Fair values of level 2 instruments are based on other data than quoted prices in
active markets, but on the data from which the asset is observable, either
directly (i.e. price) or indirectly (i.e. derived from the prices).
Fair value determination
The fair values of currency derivatives are determined by using mark-to-market
method at the reporting date.
The fair values of electricity derivatives are determined on the basis of market
quotations and contract prices of the instruments at the reporting date.
