Overview
Group net sales increased compared to the corresponding period in 2009 as a
result of a favorable currency translation effect and improved volumes. Volume
development was positive especially in the Flexible Packaging and Films
segments. In the reporting period all business segments were affected by
increasing raw material prices.
Operating earnings improved in the reporting period compared to corresponding
period in 2009. Third quarter operating earnings were slightly lower compared to
the corresponding period in 2009, mainly due to continued softness in North
American markets. Earnings per share (EPS) improved to EUR 0.77 (EUR 0.65),
already exceeding the full year 2009 level. EPS from continuing operations was
EUR 0.70 (EUR 0.52).
Cash flow generation strengthened further in the third quarter and Group free
cash flow in the reporting period was EUR 76 million (EUR 167 million). Gearing
reduced to 0.43 (0.58).
The ongoing strategic review of the Rigid Consumer Goods Plastics operations
progressed during the third quarter as the majority of the European Rigid
Consumer Goods Plastics operations was agreed to be sold. The operations to be
sold include manufacturing units in Finland, France, Poland and Turkey, as well
as sales units in Germany and Lithuania. The strategic review of the rigid
plastics business in Italy, currently reported under other activities, will
continue.

positively within the Foodservice division, but were weak in the Retail and

operations.
Relocation of the foodservice manufacturing unit in Poland was completed during
the third quarter. The new state-of-the-art unit is located in Czeladz, south of
Poland.
Discontinued operations
Rigid Consumer Goods Plastics operations have been under strategic review since
autumn 2008.
During the third quarter the majority of the European Rigid Consumer Goods
Plastics operations were agreed to be sold to Island Lux S.à r.l. & Partners
S.C.A., an affiliate of Sun European Partners, LLP, part of Sun Capital
Partners, Inc., a U.S. based private investment firm. The operations to be sold
include rigid consumer goods packaging manufacturing in Hämeenlinna, Finland;
Auneau, France; Siemianowice, Poland; and Istanbul, Turkey, as well as sales
units in Germany and Lithuania. The units to be sold serve multinational and
local customers with primarily dairy, edible fats, ready meal and ice cream
packaging.
The annual net sales of the operations to be sold are approximately EUR 160
million and it currently employs some 1,100 people. The agreed value for the
transaction is EUR 52 million. Closing of the transaction is subject to approval
by competition authorities.
Rigid Consumer Goods Plastics units in South America and Australia were sold in
2009. The strategic review of the rigid plastics business in Italy will
continue.
The units agreed to be sold in the third quarter are classified as assets held
for sale. The unit in Italy is reported under other activities. In this report
the result for the assets held for sale is presented as a separate line item
under "discontinued operations". Quarterly results for 2009 and 2010 have been
restated accordingly. Results of units sold during 2009 are also included in the
"discontinued operations" for respective quarters.
The result for the reporting period from discontinued operations was EUR 7
million (EUR 13 million) and in the third quarter EUR 4 million (EUR 4 million).
Sales developed positively especially in the third quarter and cost control
actions mitigated the impact of higher raw material costs. The 2010 figures for
the reporting period include a non-recurring charge of EUR 2 million related to
the strategic review of the discontinued operations.
Assets and liabilities under the assets held for sale are reported separately
from continuing operations in the statement of financial position.

in the EPS calculations was 101,167,399 (100,426,461) excluding 4,826,089
(5,061,089) of the Company's own shares.
The result for the reporting period including discontinued operations was EUR

Personnel
The Group had 12,839 (13,346) employees at the end of September 2010.
Short-term risks and uncertainties
Volatile raw material and energy prices as well as movements in currency rates
are considered to be relevant short-term business risks and uncertainties in the
Group's operations. General economic and financial market conditions can also
have an adverse effect on the implementation of the Group's strategy and on its
business performance and earnings.
Outlook for 2010
General economic and market conditions for the rest of 2010 remain uncertain.
However, based on the good result for the reporting period, it is expected that
the full year 2010 EPS will be higher than in 2009 before non-recurring charges
(EUR 0.74). The Group is in a good financial position to address growth
opportunities in stronghold segments when they arise. Capital expenditure is
expected to be higher than in 2009 but below EUR 100 million.
