INTERIM REPORT JANUARY - SEPTEMBER 2017

Sales and profitability improved, recovery of Metals, Energy & Water still pending

"The minerals and metals processing market is slowly improving. Our order intake in the reporting period increased by 16% and service orders by 10% from last year. The third quarter order intake, however, was lower than last year due to the timing of larger orders. Smaller equipment and service orders continued to increase. Our total sales and service sales increased year on year. In the third quarter, sales grew by 10% and service sales by 13%. Our profitability improved significantly, due to increased sales and reduced fixed costs.

Minerals Processing improved its sales and profitability, and the

segment's adjusted EBIT margin reached 10.4% in the third quarter. The Metals, Energy & Water result improved but remained negative. We are continuing to take action to make this segment profitable again. We recently announced our plans to outsource part of the segment's engineering activities, which will bring workforce flexibility.

The demand for most metals is expected to continue strong, and we see many attractive business opportunities. We will continue to further strengthen our capabilities in serving our customers and our large installed base. The timing of large plant orders is, however, still difficult to foresee," summarizes President & CEO Markku Teräsvasara.

Financial guidance for 2017 reiterated

The guidance for 2017 is based on the current order backlog and market outlook as well as further cost savings.

  • Sales are expected to be approximately EUR 1,100 1,200 million, and
  • Adjusted EBIT* is expected to be approximately 3 4%

* Excluding restructuring and acquisition-related items, as well as purchase price allocation amortizations.

MARKET DEVELOPMENT

Metal prices, demand outlook and production levels were positive during the reporting period. Although customer activity remained solid, particularly large investment decisions were delayed. Producers continued tight cost control, with a focus on optimizing their existing operations and aiming at improved cash flow and profitability.

Copper, zinc, lead, gold, lithium and silver projects were the most active metals. Market activity was widespread, Central and South America, Australia and Russia being the most active. Competition continued intense.

ORDER INTAKE AND BACKLOG

The order intake during the reporting period was EUR 839 (725) million, up 16% from the comparison period. The growth was attributable to services and one large plant order in the Metals, Energy & Water segment during the first quarter. Service order intake was EUR 369 (336) million, up 10% from the comparison period due to growth in shutdown and modernization services as well as spare parts.

The order intake during the third quarter was EUR 234 (274) million, down 15% from the comparison period. The decline was due to the timing of larger orders. Service order intake grew 2% from the comparison period and was EUR 123 (121) million, due to an increase in modernizations.

5 Including restructuring-related items of EUR -1.2 (-6.3) million, acquisition-related items of EUR 0.3 (-0.3) million, and no arbitration costs related to past acquisition (EUR -3.9 million). The reporting period also includes the positive impact of a EUR 0.9 million reduction from an earn-out payment liability related to acquisition.

6 Related to foreign exchange forward agreements and bank accounts.

Sales in the reporting period totaled EUR 810 (753) million, up 8% from the comparison period. Growth came from project deliveries in the Minerals Processing segment. Service sales increased by 3% representing 41 (42) % of sales. The growth came from shutdown services and spare parts.

Sales in the third quarter increased 10% from the comparison period. Growth was attributable mainly to increased process equipment orders in the Minerals Processing segment received in 2016 and services. Service sales increased by 13% from the comparison period, representing 44 (43) % of sales. This growth came mainly from shutdown services and spare parts.

Fixed costs in the reporting period – including selling and marketing, administrative, R&D and fixed delivery expenses – declined 3% (in comparable currencies -4%) from the comparison period, totaling EUR 199 (205) million, or 24 (27)% of sales.

Increased sales and fixed cost savings improved the adjusted EBIT in the reporting period and in the third quarter. Negative impacts came from sales mix, cost overruns in some project deliveries, as well as low work load and decreased sales in Metals, Energy & Water.

The result before taxes for the reporting period was EUR 3 (-22) million, including net finance expenses of EUR 8 (7) million due to interest costs and the valuation of foreign exchange forward agreements. The net result was EUR 2 (-17) million. The net impact from taxes totaled EUR -1 (5) million. Earnings per share totaled EUR -0.02 (-0.12), including accrued hybrid bond interest.

SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Major investments continue to develop slowly and new investments may be delayed or existing projects may be put on hold or cancelled. There is also a continued risk of credit losses, especially in receivables from emerging markets. Any uncertainty in China's economical outlook may impact metals demand and prices.

Outotec has identified a risk of disputes related to project execution, which may result in extra costs and/or penalties. In the contracts related to the delivery of major projects, the liquidated damages attributable to, for instance, delayed delivery or non-performance may be significant. In particular, Outotec has identified a significant risk of claims and credit losses related to a few large projects in the Metals, Energy & Water segment. If the project risks materialized in full, they could have a material impact on Outotec's financial results and could lead to decreasing headroom under financial covenants related to the capital structure and liquidity.

Risks related to Outotec's business operations are high in certain markets such as the Middle East, Russia, and Turkey. The geopolitical situation, sanctions, uncertainties around Brexit, security situation, economic conditions or regulatory environment may change rapidly and cause ongoing projects to be delayed, suspended or cancelled, or completely prevent Outotec from operating in these areas. These may result in a material impact on the valuation of Outotec's assets.

Outotec is involved in a number of disputes that may lead to arbitration and court proceedings. Differing interpretations of international contracts and laws may cause uncertainty in estimating the final outcome of these disputes. The enforceability of contracts in certain market areas may be challenging or difficult to foresee.

More information about Outotec's business risks and risk management is available in the Notes to the Financial Statements, as well as on the company's website at www.outotec.com/investors.

MARKET OUTLOOK

Sentiment in the mining and metals industry is slowly becoming more optimistic, and the demand for most metals is expected to continue strong. Investments in minerals processing are anticipated to follow the industry's production levels, with continued emphasis on optimizing existing operations. Market and the more complex ores continue to provide opportunities for process optimization, equipment deliveries, and services. Copper, nickel, zinc, lithium, aluminium and gold projects are likely to continue to be the most active.

The Metals, Energy & Water segment's wide technology portfolio provides opportunities in a number of end markets. Currently, copper, zinc, lithium and gold projects are the most active. Small plant modernizations are also expected to materialize. There are opportunities in energy but investments are commonly linked to regional and geopolitical regulations and needs. The timing of large plant investments continue to be difficult to foresee.

NOTES TO THE STATEMENT OF COMPREHENSIVE INCOME AND FINANCIAL POSITION

These Interim Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. In these Interim Financial Statements, the same accounting policies and methods have been applied as in the latest Annual Financial Statements. These Interim Financial Statements are unaudited.

The following new standards and interpretations have been published, but they are not effective in 2017, nor has Outotec early-adopted them:

IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments:

  • The new standard replaces the current standard IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and measurement. It addresses the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. Based on IFRS 9, financial assets are required to be classified into three measurement categories: amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income, or fair value through profit or loss. The determination is made at initial recognition. The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing its financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the instrument. The standard also changes the recognition of impairment losses and the application of hedge accounting.
  • Outotec is assessing the impact of IFRS 9 and intends to fully adopt it in 2018.
  • The Group is not expecting categorization of financial assets to significantly affect the income statement or balance sheet. The Group has paid attention especially to the amendments in applying hedge accounting. The changes are expected to at least moderately improve the applicability of foreign exchange cash flow hedge accounting in Outotec's business operations and therefore to some extent decrease volatility in the income statement. The changes to hedge accounting are not expected to significantly affect the balance sheet.
  • The Group has established a model for evaluating credit losses under IFRS 9. This model is not expected to have a significant impact on the income statement or balance sheet.

IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers:

  • The new standard aims to establish principles for reporting useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with its customers. It replaces the IAS 18 and IAS 11 standards and related interpretations. The new standard includes a five-step procedure for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers.
  • Outotec is assessing the impact of IFRS 15 and intends to adopt it in 2018. Outotec expects to transition to the new standard with the full retrospective method. In particular, the Group has paid attention to the identification of performance obligations and the criteria for the recognition of revenue over time.
  • Based on the impact analysis, the current understanding of the management is that there will be no significant impact on the Group's income statement and balance sheet. The management has assessed certain scenarios during the evaluation project. These scenarios mainly relate to combining contracts, identifying performance obligations, evaluating variable considerations, and defining the method for revenue recognition. The

new standard will, to some extent, even out margin recognition over time, due to combining contracts. Certain customer contracts currently recognized as revenue over time would be recognized at a point in time, according to IFRS 15. However, the current understanding is that these changes will not exert significant impact on the income statement or balance sheet.

IFRS 16 – Leases

The new standard requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for most leases. Leases will no longer be classified as operating leases or finance leases, and all leases will have a single accounting model, with certain exemptions. There are no major changes for lessors. The new standard replaces the IAS 17 standard and related interpretations. Outotec is planning to assess the impacts of the standard and intends to adopt it in 2019.

Use of estimates

IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses in the reporting period. Accounting estimates are employed in the financial statements to determine reported amounts, including the realizability of certain assets, useful lives of tangible and intangible assets, income taxes, provisions, pension obligations, and the impairment of goodwill. These estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current events and actions; however, it is possible that the actual results may differ from the estimates used in the financial statements.

No securities or collateral have been pledged. Commercial guarantees are related to performance obligations of project and equipment deliveries. These are issued by financial institutions or Outotec Oyj on behalf of Group companies. The total value of commercial guarantees above does not include advance payment guarantees issued by the parent or other Group companies or guarantees for financial obligations. The total amount of guarantees for financing issued by Group companies amounted to EUR 7.3 million at September 30, 2017 (September 30, 2016: EUR 17.1 million, December 31, 2016: EUR 13.6 million), and for commercial commitments including advance payment guarantees EUR 615.5 million at September 30, 2017 (September 30, 2016: EUR 460.8 million, December 31, 2016: EUR 551.2 million). High exposure of on-demand guarantees may increase the risk of claims that may exert an impact on the liquidity of Outotec.
