We are pleased to announce this cooperation with Belgianprivate equity house Gimv who has a deep understanding of theindustry and of future opportunities in Europe and Russia.CapMan's operating environment has been challenging in the first halfof 2009. Fundraising as well as M&A and real estate activity havepractically been in a standstill. We are awaiting market developmentsover the following 12 months. The possible gradual recovery of thereal economy and its stimulus to the M&A market provides attractiveopportunities for private equity investors. CapMan funds have accessto more than EUR 1 billion for investments in portfolio companies andreal estate.The operating profit in the second quarter was MEUR 0.5 positive.Management Company business posted a satisfactory result inJanuary-June, taking into account goodwill write-down as well as thatno management fees were received from CapMan Buyout IX fund beforethe end of the second quarter. We have paid special attention tomanaging expenses. The negative development in fair values ofinvestments that contributed to the loss in the first half of 2009was halted in the second quarter."Business operationsCapMan is an alternative asset manager, which also makes investmentsin its own funds. The guiding principle for investment activities ofthe funds managed by the Group is to work actively and directlytowards increasing the value of investments.The Group has two operating segments: Management Company business andFund Investments. The Management Company business is furthersubdivided into two business areas, which are CapMan Private Equity(manages funds that invest in portfolio companies) and CapMan RealEstate (manages funds that invest in real estate and provides realestate consulting). Income from the Management Company business isderived from management fees paid by funds, from carried interestreceived from funds and from income generated by real estateconsulting.The Fund Investment business comprises fund investments made fromCapMan Plc's own balance sheet and investments in Maneq funds. Incomefrom the Fund Investment business is derived from realised returns onfund investments and from changes in the fair value of investments.There may be considerable quarterly fluctuation in carried interestas well as in the fair value of fund investments. For this reason theGroup's financial performance should be analysed over a longer timespan than the quarterly cycle.Incorporation of Fund Investment business and sale of own investmentsand commitmentsCapMan has established a new company, CapMan Fund Investments SICAVSIF, which operates as a feeder fund into funds managed by CapMan.Part of the own investment commitments and fund investments thatCapMan has made as a fund investor were transferred to the feederfund on 30 June 2009, and CapMan will transfer its remaininginvestments and commitments by the end of the first quarter of 2010.Furthermore, CapMan will sell investment commitments worth MEUR 13.6and fund investments worth MEUR 3.4 to Belgian-based private equityfirm Gimv. The incorporation of Fund Investments and sale ofinvestments and commitments is specified in more detail in a separateStock Exchange release published today.In addition, CapMan's own investment commitments fell by MEUR 8.0when the commitment given to CapMan Public Market fund decreased fromMEUR 15.0 to MEUR 7.0 at the close of the period due to a sell to aninstitutional investor.Group turnover and result in January-June 2009The Group's turnover in January-June 2009 decreased from thecomparison period and was MEUR 17.0 (January-June 2008: MEUR 19.5).Fair value changes related to fund investments were MEUR -4.8 (MEUR-1.3), and operating expenses amounted to MEUR 16.5 (MEUR 14.6). Theexpenses have increased after the comparison period particularly as aresult of the new CapMan Russia and CapMan Public Market investmentareas and the impact of CapMan Hotels RE fund's expenses made in fullfrom March 2008.The Group's operating profit/loss totalled MEUR -4.2 (MEUR 3.7).During the review period there was a goodwill write-down of MEUR 0.7related to the life science operations acquired in 2002. CapMan hasno plans to establish new independent life science funds.

Management fees grewsubstantially from the comparable period and amounted to MEUR 15.6 inJanuary-June 2009 (MEUR 13.6). The increase was attributable toestablishment of the CapMan Hotels RE, CapMan Public Market andCapMan Russia funds in 2008. CapMan Buyout IX fund started to paymanagement fees at the end of the review period with the closing ofthe fund's first investment.Income from real estate consulting totalled MEUR 1.0 (MEUR 1.3). Theaggregate total of management fees and income from real estateconsulting was MEUR 16.6 (MEUR 14.9).No substantial exits were made from funds in carry during the reviewperiod and no carried interest income was generated.

In the second quarter fair value changes offund investments were MEUR -0.3, which represents a 0.5% decrease invalue. The negative development in fair value for the whole periodwas attributable to the general market situation and its impact onthe multiples of portfolio companies' listed peers used in companyvaluations. The fall in fair value was also attributable to aweakening in result prospects of certain portfolio companies. Therewere also positive fair value developments within the portfolio. Theaggregate fair value of fund investments on 30 June 2009 amounted toMEUR 56.2 (MEUR 54.7 on 30 June 2008).Operating profit/loss for the Fund Investment business was MEUR -4.8(MEUR -1.2) and profit/loss for the period was MEUR -6.0 (MEUR -1.3).During the review period CapMan made new investments in its own fundsto the amount of MEUR 8.1 (MEUR 14.6). Investments were made inCapMan Buyout VIII, CapMan Buyout IX, CapMan Russia and CapMan PublicMarket, among other funds. CapMan did not give any new investmentcommitments to its funds during the review period, and the commitmentto CapMan Public Market fund was decreased from MEUR 15 to MEUR 7 atthe close of the period. On 30 June 2009 the amount of remainingcommitments was MEUR 61.9 (MEUR 47.0). The aggregate fair value ofexisting investments and remaining commitments at 30 June 2009totalled MEUR 118.1 (MEUR 101.8).

The carryingamount of goodwill was adjusted during the review period by MEUR 0.7following the lowering of the final purchase price for the Norumacquisition, and by MEUR 0.7 related to the write-down of lifescience operations.

In addition to CapMan Plc, CapMan personnel areinvestors in the Maneq funds.

Maneq funds pay market rateinterest on loans they receive from CapMan Plc.Current assets amounted to MEUR 30.5 (MEUR 15.7). Liquid assets (cashin hand and at banks, plus other financial assets at fair valuethrough profit and loss) amounted to MEUR 19.1 (MEUR 6.8). Liquidassets mainly include the remaining proceeds of the hybrid bond,which has been used to finance own fund investments. The size of thehybrid bond was increased to MEUR 29 during the review period (MEUR20 on 31 December 2008), and it may be increased to at most MEUR 30.The hybrid bond is included in 'Other reserves' under equity in thebalance sheet. The interest on the bond is payable semi-annually andhas been deducted from equity at the close of the review period. At30 June 2009 CapMan Plc had a bank financing package of MEUR 60 (MEUR60) available, of which MEUR 46.0 (MEUR 22.0) was in use.

CapMan'starget is to increase the capital under management by an average of15% per year.Fundraising for CapMan Buyout IX, CapMan Russia, CapMan Hotels RE andCapMan Public Market funds was carried out during the review period.New capital amounting to MEUR 18 was raised to the CapMan Buyout IXfund during the review period. The fund's size was increased to MEUR221 in April and its fundraising continues.The final close of CapMan Russia fund was held at MEUR 118.1 inApril. Following the final closing, CapMan Plc's share of thepossible carried interest to be generated by the fund was alsodetermined. CapMan Plc will receive 3.4% of the fund's cash flows ifthe fund is in carry. The relatively lower carried interest shareresults from the fact that part of the fund had already been raisedbefore its transfer under CapMan's management.During the review period, equity in CapMan Hotels RE fund grew byMEUR 27.6 and CapMan Public Market fund raised MEUR 15.0 in newcapital, of which MEUR 8.0 was subscribed to the investmentcommitment that had been previously given by CapMan.Capital under management totalled MEUR 3,457.3 on 30 June 2009 (MEUR3,005.8 on 30 June 2008).

MEUR 1.8 through adirected issue to the sellers.The Norum acquisition was specified in more detail in the StockExchange releases issued on 26 May 2008, 27 August 2008, 7 April 2009and 20 April 2009 and available on CapMan's website atwww.capman.com/En/Media/Releases/.Events after the review periodFundraising for CapMan Hotels RE and CapMan Public Market funds wasfinalised in July after the end of the period under review.The real estate hotel fund held a final close at MEUR 872.5, of whichMEUR 332.5 comprises equity and the balance is senior debt.New capital totalling MEUR 25 was raised to the CapMan Public Marketfund after the review period, and the fund was closed at MEUR 138.0.Significant risks and short-term uncertaintiesCapMan Plc's Management Company business is profitable on a yearlybasis, but the prevailing market climate has increased theuncertainty attached to forecasting the Company's financialperformance. The combination of an almost total standstill in the M&Amarket, a credit squeeze and a sharp decline in fair values ofinvestments has appreciably further weakened exit opportunities. Thismay result in postponement of exits, and consequently therefore ofcarried interest income. In the real estate market, the economicclimate may impact tenants' operations, and thereby the vacancy rateand rental income of investment properties. CapMan believes thatfundraising will also continue to be challenging, which might affectthe end result of ongoing fundraising activities and, through that,management fees over the next few years.Business environmentThe prospects for growth in the demand for alternative assets stillremain good over the long term. The financial crisis and the steepdecline in market valuations of other asset classes, however, areclearly slowing the growth in the alternative asset class. Privateequity has consolidated its position in financing M&A and growth, andcontinues to focus typically on consolidation in various sectors,family successions, privatisation of public services and functions,and the commercialisation of R&D in the technology and life sciencesectors. Increased entrepreneurial activity has also boosted growth.Real estate funds, for their part, have gained an established shareof institutional investors' investment allocations.The EU legislative initiative on regulation for alternative assetmanagers and funds will stipulate, when passed, an operating licensefor participants as well as other significant requirements includingfund investor and authority reporting, among others. The newregulations will burden the smaller players in particular and mayalso impact on the number of players to be registered. CapMan, due tothe Company's organisation and operating model, is in a good positionto meet the new regulations.The CapMan funds investing in portfolio companies will continue toimplement their investment strategies. The deep crisis in the debtmarket has been reflected, however, in CapMan's operating area also.The banks have focused their lending on large corporations inparticular which has delayed the positive impact on other companies.We believe that bank financing for buyouts, mergers & acquisitionsand real estate investments will gradually recover during the next 12months. We haven't yet seen forced sales, as price elasticity hasbeen lower in the private equity market than in public markets. Thenumber of new potential portfolio companies has remained at a goodlevel especially for the Public Market and Russia funds. The exitmarket has at present come to a standstill.The slowdown in growth of the real economy has been seen in ourportfolio companies, especially in those sectors that are linked, forinstance, to consumer demand or the automobile industry. A steepdecline in listed market valuations especially in the beginning ofthe year reflected in the fair value of our investments. The resultprospects for portfolio companies have weakened since the spring, butthe negative fair value development was offset by the favourabledevelopment in the multiples of listed peers in most cases. We planto keep enough reserves in our funds to support our companies' growthand financing in this market situation. Long-term cooperation withNordic banks is particularly important to us.In the real estate sector, the debt market crisis has depressed thevolume of real estate transactions. The number of foreign players inparticular has fallen significantly. Weakening property demand andrising yield expectations have lowered property valuation levels. Weanticipate transaction volumes to remain low but that deals arepoised to pick up in the second half of 2009. We also expect to seeincreased use of equity for the financing of real estatetransactions. Demand for prime real estate is still at a good leveland the changed market situation could well open up good investmentopportunities. Occupancy rates and demand for office and retailpremises are at a satisfactory level. However vacancy rates foroffice premises are expected to rise in the Helsinki metropolitanarea, which creates downward pressure on rent levels. The demand forreal estate consulting has remained stable.All CapMan's investment teams are in a good position and haveadequate resources to implement their investment strategies in theNordic countries and Russia. The funds investing in portfoliocompanies have some MEUR 860 for making new and follow-oninvestments, while the real estate funds have approx. MEUR 340investment capacity for identifying new investment targets anddeveloping the existing portfolio.Future outlookManagement fees and income from real estate consulting will coverCapMan's fixed expenses in 2009. Income from carried interest willdepend on developments in the exit market. Despite the slowdown inthe exit market, the funds still have portfolio companies ready toenter the exit process. We expect the CapMan Equity VII A, B andSweden funds as well as the Finnmezzanine III A and B funds totransfer to carry during 2010. The fair value of CapMan Plc's fundinvestments has developed negatively during the first half andprogress during the second half will depend on the general marketsituation and the development of portfolio companies. The Group'soverall result for 2009 will mainly depend on whether new exits aremade by funds already generating carried interest, and on how thevalue of investments develops in those funds in which CapMan is asubstantial investor. Without significant positive fair value changesand carried interest income the result for the full year 2009 will beloss-making.CapMan Plc's Interim Report for January-September 2009 will bepublished on Friday 30 October 2009.Helsinki, Finland, 7 August 2009CAPMAN PLCBoard of DirectorsPress conference:A press conference for analysts and the media will be held today at12.00 noon in CapMan's offices at Korkeavuorenkatu 32, Helsinki,Finland.

When analysing the schedule for funds tostart generating carried interest, the relationship betweendistributed cash flows to investors and paid-in capital should becompared. When a fund starts generating carried interest the capitalmust be returned and an annual preferential return paid on it. Thefair value of a portfolio, including any of the fund's net cashassets, represents the capital distributable to investors at the endof the review period.When assessing the cash flow a fund needs in order to startgenerating carried interest, it should be noted that the capital ofsome funds has not yet been called and paid in. The percentage figurein the last column on the right shows CapMan's share of cash flows ifthe fund is generating carried interest. After the previousdistribution of profits, any new capital paid in, as well as thepreferential annual return on it, must however be returned toinvestors before further carried interest income is paid. Of thefunds already generating carried interest, CapMan Real Estate I fundis still in the active investment phase and Finnventure V fund canstill make follow-on investments in its current portfolio companies.The definitions for column headings are presented below the tables.
