The Other Papers businessarea was renamed Speciality Papers. The new structure took effect on17 June 2009.On 15 July 2009, M-real's associated company Oy Metsä-Botnia Ab andits owners, M-real, Metsäliitto Cooperative and UPM-Kymmene Oyj,signed a letter of intent regarding the divestment of the pulp milland forests located in Fray Bentos, Uruguay, to UPM. The finalagreement was signed on 22 October 2009. The transaction is describedmore in detail in the chapter Events after the reporting period.M-real's structural change to concentrate more clearly on producingpackaging materials has proceeded as planned. The strategic review ofthe paper business continues.Management changesMatti Mörsky started as M-real's CFO on 4 May 2009.On 17 June 2009, Heikki Husso was appointed Head of the SpecialityPapers business area, and Soili Hietanen was appointed Head of theMarket Pulp and Energy business area.

In August, M-real agreed with Sappi that Sappi will repay thevendor notes at the price of 86.5 per cent of their nominal value.The cash payment of EUR 190 million received by M-real from Sappi inAugust strengthened the Group's liquidity. This early repaymentresulted in an approximately EUR 30 million loss that was booked inM-real's financial expenses in the third quarter of 2009.In the second quarter, M-real drew a EUR 60 million pension premium(TyEL) loan. After this drawdown, M-real still has a total of aboutEUR 260 million of undrawn pension premium (TyEL) loans.In the first quarter, M-real repurchased its own bonds (EUR 400million bond due in December 2010) with a nominal value of EUR 59.95million. A gain of approximately EUR 31 million from the purchaseswas recorded in the first quarter result.M-real's liquidity is ensured and actions to secure long-termfinancing are ongoing.Standard & Poor's downgraded M-real's credit rating from B- to CCC+on 16 January 2009. The outlook of the rating remains negative. Thedowngrade has an about EUR 2 million impact on current annualfinancing costs.On 13 February 2009, Moody's Investors Service downgraded M-real's B3credit rating to Caa1. The outlook of the rating remains negative.The downgrade has an about EUR 2 million impact on current annualfinancing costs.SharesIn January-September 2009, the highest price for M-real's B share onthe NASDAQ OMX Helsinki was EUR 0.92, the lowest EUR 0.19, and theaverage price EUR 0.50.

The master agreement regarding this transactionwas signed on 22 October 2009.Pursuant to the agreement, Metsä-Botnia will sell all its holdings inUruguayan operations to UPM. The agreed total value of the pulp milland forest assets in Uruguay is approximately EUR 1.6 billion. Inaddition, Metsä-Botnia will sell 77 per cent of its holding inPohjolan Voima Oy to UPM for a consideration of EUR 66 million.Concurrently, Metsä-Botnia will distribute dividends and capitalrepayments to its shareholders, of which M-real's share is about EUR300 million.Pursuant to the agreement, Metsä-Botnia will acquire its own sharesfrom UPM and will cancel them. As a result, M-real's ownership inMetsä-Botnia increases by 3.0 percent-units. M-real and MetsäliittoCooperative have agreed that Metsäliitto Cooperative will acquiresuch 3.0 percent holding of Metsä-Botnia from M-real. The agreedtotal value of Metsä-Botnia without its Uruguayan operations andPohjolan Voima Oy shares is approximately EUR 1.9 billion.Metsäliitto Cooperative will pay its share purchase from M-real witha market priced vendor note of EUR 50 million, having a maturity of 3years.Upon the closing of the transaction, M-real will change theconsolidation method of Metsä-Botnia in its consolidated financialaccounts and process its ownership in Metsä-Botnia as an associatedcompany according to IAS 28. When closed, the transaction will reduceM-real's net debt compared to the end of the third quarter in 2009 byapproximately EUR 500 million when taking into account the cashconsideration of EUR 300 million, the market priced receivable of EUR50 million from Metsäliitto and the change in the consolidationmethod for the consolidated financial statements of M-real. Earlierthe net debt reduction was estimated at EUR 550 million. This changein the estimation results from Metsä-Botnia's decreased net debt andweakened US dollar exchange rate. M-real will use the funds forpaying off its debts. The transaction will not have a significantimpact on M-real's equity. The closing of the transaction and thechange in the consolidation method of Metsä-Botnia are estimated todecrease M-real's annual sales by approximately EUR 250 million andto slightly improve the result before taxes compared to 1-3Q 2009.The transaction is still subject to the conclusion of negotiationswith financing parties and approvals by competition authorities. Thetransaction is expected to be completed latest during the firstquarter of 2010. After the closing of the transaction M-real owns 30per cent, Metsäliitto Cooperative 53 per cent and UPM 17 per cent ofMetsä-Botnia.The Board of Directors of M-real has reviewed and approved thetransaction without those of its members who are dependent onMetsäliitto Cooperative. Upon request of the Board of Directors ofM-real, Handelsbanken Capital Markets has issued a Fairness Opinion,according to which the transaction is financially fair from the pointof view of M-real's shareholders. Castrén & Snellman Oy,Attorneys-at-law, has acted as the company's legal advisor.Near-term outlookThe demand for folding boxboard improved during the third quarter,and the operating rates were at a good level. The demand is believedto remain good also during the fourth quarter. However, seasonallythe fourth quarter is typically slightly weaker than the thirdquarter. Folding boxboard prices are being increased in the UK, andprice increases of approximately 10 per cent have also been announcedfor other markets. Linerboard prices have been increased in the mainmarkets.Also the order inflow of uncoated fine paper improved during thethird quarter. The demand seems to continue at a relatively goodlevel. Following the divestment of the New Thames mill last year andthe subsequent production conversion, M-real's operating rates havebeen slightly better than the average operating rates in the market.Producers' low average operating rates seem to continue to maintainthe price pressure.Following the discontinuation of the standard coated fine paperproduction, the expansion of uncoated fine paper and speciality paperproduction has progressed according to plan in the Speciality Papersbusiness area. The demand for speciality papers is still below thenormal level but seems to be improving gradually. The prices ofspeciality papers have mainly remained stable, and no significantchanges in the average price are expected.The increase in the price of pulp has continued. The weakening of theUS dollar has decreased the effect of the price increase in euros. Itis believed the increase in prices will continue also during thefourth quarter.The adaptation of M-real after the divestment of Graphic Papers hasproceeded according to plans, and it is expected to result insignificant cost savings before the end of the year, e.g., due to thereorganisation of IT functions.M-real's internal profit improvement programmes have proceeded astargeted. The implemented efficiency improvements and decreases inproduction costs in 2009 help the profitability situation.Performance in 2009 has been negatively affected by significantextraordinary operating costs related to adapting operations to asmaller scale and more profitable entity. The costs related to theseannounced adaptation measures during the fourth quarter will besignificantly lower than during the previous quarters. The positiveeffect of successful measures on performance will however be seenclearly during the next year.The third quarter was notably better than the first half of the year.The fourth quarter is also expected to be clearly better than theprofitability level of the first two quarters. As a result of theweak performance during the first half of the year, the operatingresult for 2009 as a whole excluding non-recurring items will fallclearly short of the previous year.The agreement on the new ownership structure of M-real's associatedcompany Metsä-Botnia and the divestment of Metsä-Botnia's operationsin Uruguay to UPM-Kymmene Oyj is expected to be closed latest duringthe first quarter of 2010.Near-term business risksThe weakening of the global economy and general uncertainty have hada negative impact on the operating conditions of the European paperand board industry. In spite of several signs of improvement, thereis still the risk that the slowdown of the global economy and theweak demand for paper will be prolonged. A prolonged period of weakdemand may delay the improvement of profitability.North-American subsidies to pulp industry have led restarts of idledcapacity. The possible material increase in pulp supply can result asdiscontinuation of the global pulp price increase or even as a globalpulp price decline.The overall situation of the financial market has recently improved,but the availability of corporate financing on reasonable termsremains challenging. M-real's financial situation improved followingthe early repayment of Sappi's vendor notes and will improve furtheronce the arrangement of Metsä-Botnia's operations in Uruguay isclosed latest during the first quarter of 2010.The company's strategic review has proceeded consistently in phases.Together with successful cost saving programmes, the company hasachieved significant savings and rationalisation of operations. Ithas been announced that the strategic review of the paper business,cost cuts and streamlining of operations will continue. If themeasures to be implemented are unable to reach the desired effect oncosts, there is the risk of continued weak profitability of the paperbusiness.There is a risk of a strengthening euro in relation to the US dollarand the British pound. This would have a negative impact on operatingconditions in the European paper and board industry.Because the forward-looking estimates and statements of thesefinancial statements are based on current plans and estimates, theycontain risks and other uncertain factors that may cause the resultsto differ from the statements concerning them.In the short term, M-real's result will be particularly affected bythe price of, and demand for, finished products, raw material costs,the price of energy, and the exchange rate development of the euro.More information about longer-term risk factors can be found on pages37-38 of M-real's 2008 annual report.M-REAL CORPORATIONFurther information:Matti Mörsky, CFO, tel. +358 10 465 4913Juha Laine, Vice President, Investor Relations and Communications,tel. +358 10 465 4335More information available starting from 1 pm on 22 October 2009.
