Sales increased in both business segments and in all of our market areas. Commercial vehicle manufacture continued its growth in our key market areas in Europe and Brazil, and in the the final quarter our customers received more orders than they delivered vehicles within the same period. We expect the growth to continue on the key markets this year. Accelerated by customers growth in the industrial electronics and energy segments, PKC Group s deliveries of electronics design and manufacturing services increased from the level of the previous quarter. We expect the growth to continue this year. Profitability improvement was limited by unfavourable price development of raw and other materials. However, profitability remained at a good level thanks to the growth in sales and the cost reductions made earlier. In line with our strategy, our aim is not only organic growth but also business growth through acquisitions. 1 / 17

SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Due to the global growth in industrial production, the prices of raw materials and components have developed in an unfavourable direction, particularly in the latter half of The same development has continued in early 2011 and may continue unfavourably. There were problems with the availability of components in 2010, and component availability problems may increase PKC s processing and freight costs this year. A potential weakening of the euro against the Polish zloty and the Russian rouble may increase PKC s processing costs calculated in euros. The principles, objectives and organisation of the company s risk management as well as key risk areas are described in the risk management section of the Corporate Governance guidelines, which are available on the company's website at OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE The number of orders received by our automotive industry customers during the final quarter exceeded the number of vehicles they delivered within the same period. The industry is anticipating significant growth this year on the recovering European and North American markets. Markets in the developing countries are also expected to keep growing. Based on this, we are expecting an increase in the net sales of the Wiring Harnesses segment compared to last year. Customers in the industrial electronics and energy segment steadily increased their sales last year, and we expect this growth to continue. We also estimate that the net sales generated by the electronics design and manufacturing services will increase this year. PKC Group estimates that its net sales and comparable operating profit will increase in 2011 from the previous year s level. In 2010, net sales amounted to EUR million, and operating profit before nonrecurring items was EUR 31.5 million. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS PROPOSAL FOR THE DISPOSAL OF PROFITS The parent company s distributable funds are EUR 67.8 million, of which the net profit for the financial year is EUR 2.0 million. The Board of Directors will propose to the Annual General Meeting to be held on 30 March 2011 that a dividend of EUR 0.55 per share be paid for a total of EUR 10.8 million (calculated with the 7 / 17

8 number of shares at the balance sheet date) and that the remainder of the distributable funds be transferred to shareholders equity. The record date for the dividend payout is 4 April 2011 and the payment date is 11 April In the view of the Board of Directors, the proposed dividend payout will not put the company s liquidity at risk.
