"The result was satisfactory, considering the extremely challenging business environment Fortum operates in at the moment. Operating profit declined in the second quarter mainly due to items affecting comparability, which amounted to approximately EUR 260 million. High uncertainty in Europe and in the world economy in general, has kept the economic activity slow in our main markets.
The Nordic water reservoir surplus levels continued and were above the long-term average throughout the second quarter. In addition, low carbon dioxide (CO2) emission allowance prices and coal prices have created a downward pressure on system and area prices in the Nordic market. Hence, Nord Pool Spot system prices were at very low levels, and in July the price level has continued to decline. The system price has been as low as at approximately EUR 7 – a level rarely experienced in the 21st century.
Electricity consumption in the Nordic countries increased slightly during the quarter, however, the increase was attributable to colder weather and partly offset by decreased industrial demand. It reflects well the current demanding economic situation in Europe. According to Finnish Energy Industries (Energiateollisuus ry), the domestic industrial electricity consumption grew only in the chemicals industry. The technology sector development was flat, while consumption in the forest industry has been decreasing since the beginning of the year. Also in Sweden, the industrial demand decreased slightly during January-June 2012.
In Russia, electricity prices also decreased during the second quarter and consumption was somewhat down in the areas Fortum operates in. The very extensive and demanding construction project of the new units in Nyagan will be delayed slightly further. Actions are taken to avoid any further delays. This does not change the overall schedule or financial targets of the investment programme, which is to be finalised at the end of 2014.
A satisfactory result, however, is not good enough. Great effort is put in managing the current situation. The coming months still look challenging, both due to the external market and timing of internal operational actions. Therefore, as in 2011, we expect the income stream to be year-end weighted. The industry-typical seasonality and the external environment may cause short-term volatility; nevertheless, Fortum has a strong financial situation and we are continuing to work according to our long-term strategy."
In the second quarter of 2012, Group sales were EUR 1,284 (1,316) million. The comparable operating profit totalled EUR 281 (348) million. Group operating profit totalled EUR 283 (609) million. Fortum's operating profit for the period was affected by non-recurring items, IFRS accounting treatment (IAS 39) of derivatives mainly used for hedging Fortum's power production and nuclear fund adjustments amounting to EUR 2 (261) million.
The share of profits from associates in the second quarter was EUR 26 (15) million. The share of profits from Hafslund and TGC-1 are based on the companies' published first-quarter interim reports. In addition, the share of profits from TGC-1's fourth-quarter 2011 is included (Note 14).

In January-June, Group sales were EUR 3,185 (3,350) million. The comparable operating profit totalled EUR 932 (997) million. Group operating profit totalled EUR 1,019 (1,509) million. Fortum's operating profit for the period was affected by non-recurring items, IFRS accounting treatment (IAS 39) of derivatives mainly used for hedging Fortum's power production and nuclear fund adjustments.
Non-recurring items, mark-to-market effects and nuclear fund adjustments in January-June 2012 amounted to EUR 87 (512) million. Changes in fair values of derivatives hedging future cash flow accounted for EUR -18 (249) million. Non-recurring items totalled EUR 121 (275) million and were mainly related to the divestments of shares in power and heat operations (Note 4).
The share of profits of associates and joint ventures was EUR 19 (74) million. The decrease from last year was mainly due to lower share of profits from Hafslund ASA, and TGC-1 as well as the share of profits from Fingrid Oyj, which was divested during Q2 2011.
The Group's net financial expenses increased to EUR 149 (127) million. The increase is attributable to higher interest expenses, mainly due to higher SEK interest rates and to higher average net debt in 2012 than during the comparable period in 2011. Net financial expenses were also negatively affected by changes in the fair value of financial instruments of EUR 8 (3) million.
Profit before taxes was EUR 889 (1,456) million.
Taxes for the period totalled EUR 165 (232) million. The tax rate according to the income statement was 18.5% (15.9%). The tax rate, excluding mainly the impact of the share of profits of associated companies and joint ventures as well as non-taxable capital gains, was 21.1% (21.1%).
The profit for the period was EUR 724 (1,224) million. Fortum's earnings per share were EUR 0.77 (1.29), of which EUR 0.10 (0.47) per share relates to items affecting comparability.
Non-controlling (minority) interests amounted to EUR 43 (74) million. These are mainly attributable to Fortum Värme Holding AB, in which the city of Stockholm has a 50% economic interest. The decrease compared to last year is mainly due to the minority's share, EUR 32 million, of the gain recognised in the first quarter 2011 from the divestment of Fortum Värme's heat businesses outside the Stockholm area.
In January-June 2012, total net cash from operating activities increased slightly to EUR 872 (864) million. Capital expenditures in cash flow increased by EUR 74 million to EUR 577 (503) million. Proceeds from divestments totalled EUR 301 (535) million in cash flow. Cash flow before financing activities, i.e. dividend distributions and financing, decreased by EUR 303 million to EUR 579 (882) million. The strong SEK during the first half of the year had a negative impact on the cash flow through realised net foreign exchange losses amounting to EUR 113 (251) million related to rollover of foreign exchange contracts hedging loans to Fortum Swedish subsidiaries.
During the reporting period, dividends totalling EUR 888 million were paid on 23 April 2012 using the cash and cash equivalents.
Total assets decreased by EUR 379 million to EUR 22,619 (22,998 at year-end 2011) million. Noncurrent assets increased by EUR 432 million from EUR 20,210 million to EUR 20,642 million. The majority, EUR 391 million, came from the increased value of property, plants and equipment; due to the investments, strengthening Swedish krona and other currencies. The decrease in current assets was EUR 811 million, totalling EUR 1,977 million. The majority of the decrease relates to the lower
amount of cash and cash equivalents, EUR 327 million, decrease in trade and other receivables EUR 275 million, and the EUR 183 million decrease in assets held for sale relating to divestments closed during January-June.
Capital employed was EUR 17,848 (17,931 at year-end 2011) million, a decrease of EUR 83 million. The decrease was due to the lower amount of total assets totalling EUR 379 million, and a decrease in interest-free liabilities, totalling EUR 296 million.
Total equity was EUR 10,024 (10,161 at year-end 2011) million, of which equity attributable to owners of the parent company totalled EUR 9,472 (9,632 at year-end 2011) million and noncontrolling interests EUR 552 (529 at year-end 2011) million. The decrease in equity attributable to owners of the parent company totalled EUR 160 million and arose mainly from net profit for the period, amounting to EUR 681 million and from the dividends paid totalling EUR 888 million.
Net debt increased during the second quarter by EUR 897 million to EUR 7 420 (7,023 at year-end 2011) million mainly as a result of dividend payment in April of EUR 888 million.
At the end of June 2012, the Group's liquid funds totalled EUR 404 (747 at year-end 2011) million. Liquid funds include cash and bank deposits held by OAO Fortum amounting to EUR 240 (211 at year-end 2011) million. In addition to the liquid funds, Fortum had access to approximately EUR 2.7 billion of undrawn committed credit facilities.
The Group's net financial expenses during January-June 2012 were EUR 149 (127) million. The increase in financial expenses is mainly attributable to higher market interest rates and higher average net debt during the first half of the year. Net financial expenses also include changes in the fair value of financial instruments of EUR 8 (3) million.
Fortum Corporation's long-term credit rating from S&P, A (negative) and Fortum Corporation's longterm credit rating from Moody's, A2 (stable), remained unchanged.
For the last twelve months, net debt to EBITDA was 2.9 (2.3 at year-end 2011) and comparable net debt to EBITDA 3.2 (3.0 at year-end 2011), impacted by EUR 888 million in dividend payments. Gearing was 74% (69% at year-end 2011) and the equity-to-assets ratio 44% (44% at year-end 2011). For the last twelve months, return on capital employed was 11.3% (14.8% at year-end 2011) and return on equity 14.0% (19.7% at year-end 2011). Equity per share was EUR 10.66 (10.84 at year-end 2011).
During the second quarter of 2012, the significantly higher water reservoirs combined with the clearly lower price of coal and CO2 emissions allowance (EUA) kept the Nordic electricity price well below the level of the corresponding period the year before. Area prices for Fortum's key areas, Finland and Sweden (SE3), were above the system price. The export of electricity from the Nordic countries to the Continent and Baltic countries was 5 (0) TWh during the quarter due to the high price differences between the markets.
According to preliminary statistics, electricity consumption in the Nordic countries during the second quarter was 86 (85) terawatt-hours (TWh) i.e. some 1% higher than the year before. The increase was attributable to colder weather, even though its impact was partly outweighed by a decrease in
the industrial consumption. In January – June, electricity consumption in the Nordic countries was 200 (201) terawatt-hours (TWh), i.e. some 0.5% lower than the year before.
At the beginning of the year, the Nordic water reservoirs were at 95 TWh, i.e.12 TWh more than the long-term average. At the beginning of the second quarter the Nordic water reservoirs were at 56 TWh, i.e.15 TWh more than the long-term average and 36 TWh above the corresponding level in 2011. By the end of the quarter, the reservoirs were 86 TWh, 2 TWh above the long-term average and 3 TWh above the corresponding level in 2011.
During the second quarter, the average system spot price of electricity in Nord Pool was EUR 28.4 (52.3) per megawatt-hour (MWh). The average area prices in Finland were EUR 32.4 (52.0) per MWh and in Sweden (SE3) 29.6 (52.2) per MWh. The hydrological surplus in the hydropower intensive regions and restrictions in the transmission capacity pressed the area prices.
During January-June 2012, the average system spot price was EUR 33.3 (59.2) per MWh. The average area price in Finland was EUR 37.5 (58.4) per MWh and in Sweden (SE3) EUR 34.3 (59.0) per MWh. The Fenno-Skan 2 connection between Finland and Sweden was down from 17 February to 25 April, which affected Finnish prices during that period and widened price area differences.
In Germany, the average spot price during the second quarter of 2012 was EUR 40.4 (53.6) per MWh and during January–June 2012 EUR 42.7 (52.7) per MWh.
At the beginning of the year, the market price for CO2 emission allowances was approximately EUR 6.6 per tonne. At the end of the second quarter, CO2 emission allowances closed at approximately EUR 8.3 per tonne. The highest quoted price during January–June was approximately EUR 9.5 per tonne and the lowest EUR 6.2 per tonne.
OAO Fortum operates in the Tyumen and Chelyabinsk areas. Both in the Tyumen area, where industrial production is dominated by the oil and gas industries, and in the Chelyabinsk area, which is dominated by the metal industry, electricity demand decreased marginally in the second quarter compared to the same period of the previous year.
According to preliminary statistics, Russia consumed 232 (230) TWh of electricity during the second quarter of 2012. The corresponding figure in Fortum's operating area in the First price zone (European and Urals part of Russia) was 172 (172) TWh.
In January-June, Russia consumed 524 (515) TWh of electricity. The corresponding figure in Fortum's operating area in the First price zone (European and Urals part of Russia) was 389 (383) TWh.
In the second quarter 2012 the average electricity spot price, excluding capacity price, decreased by 9% to RUB 925 (1,017) per MWh in the First price zone.
In January-June 2012, the average electricity spot price, excluding capacity price, decreased by 10% to RUB 920 (1,025) per MWh in the First price zone.

In the second quarter of 2012, the Power Division's comparable operating profit in the second quarter was EUR 222 (257) million, i.e. EUR 35 million lower than in the corresponding period in 2011. The system and all area prices were clearly lower during the second quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. The average system spot price of electricity in Nord Pool was EUR 28.4 (52.3) per MWh. The average area prices in Finland were EUR 32.4 (52.0) per MWh and in Sweden (SE3) EUR 29.6 (52.2) per MWh. The lower prices impacted on the achieved power price which was EUR 3.5 per MWh lower than in the corresponding period in 2011. In addition, the Power Division's result was burdened by the weak performance at the Oskarshamn nuclear power plant. Production volumes decreased considerably due to the shutdown and prolonged repairs of unit 1
and a strike related to certain outage works at unit 3. These setbacks were partly offset by the significantly increased hydro generation, which was attributable to higher water reservoir levels and inflow in the second quarter compared to the corresponding period in 2011. During the second quarter of 2012, Fortum had no thermal production in the Nordic countries.
The operating profit, EUR 214 (271) million, was affected by non-recurring items, IFRS accounting treatment (IAS 39) of derivatives mainly used for hedging Fortum's power production amounting to EUR -1 (20) million and nuclear fund adjustments (Note 4).
In the second quarter of 2012, the division's total power generation in the Nordic countries was 11.1 (10.8) TWh, which corresponds to an approximately 3% increase compared to the same period in 2011. Power's achieved Nordic power price amounted to EUR 43.9 per MWh, which was EUR 3.5 per MWh lower than in the second quarter of 2011.
The negative effect of lower nuclear and thermal volumes and the lower achieved power price inspite of higher hydro volumes was approximately EUR 10 million during the second quarter of 2012 compared to the corresponding period in 2011. Operating costs increased by approximately EUR 25 million, mainly due to higher nuclear fuel costs, higher nuclear waste fees in Sweden, higher co-owned nuclear procurement costs mainly caused by longer outages in Oskarshamn, increased depreciation and interest costs as well as inflationary effects.
In January-June 2012, the Power Division's comparable operating profit was EUR 563 (582) million, i.e. EUR 19 million lower than in the corresponding period in 2011. The achieved power price was EUR 1.9 per MWh lower than in the corresponding period in 2011 as the system and all area prices were clearly lower in January-June 2012 than during the same period a year ago. The average system spot price was EUR 33.3 (59.2) per MWh and the average area price in Finland EUR 37.5 (58.4) per MWh and in Sweden (SE3) EUR 34.3 (59.0) per MWh. High water reservoir levels as well as high inflow increased hydro generation significantly. Nuclear availability was at a high level in all reactors except Oskarshamn 1 and 3. The total nuclear volume was thus lower than during the corresponding period in 2011. Thermal production was clearly lower than the year before, due to low power prices.
The operating profit was EUR 581 (760) million. A gain of EUR 47 million, related to the divestments of small hydro plants in Finland, was booked into the first quarter of 2012. The operating profit was also affected by the IFRS accounting treatment (IAS 39) of derivatives used mainly for hedging Fortum's power production amounting to EUR -13 (188) million and nuclear fund adjustments (Note 4).
The combined effect of increased hydro generation, lower nuclear and thermal volumes as well as a lower achieved power price had a positive impact of approximately EUR 20 million during January-June 2012 compared to the corresponding period in 2011. Operating costs increased by approximately EUR 40 million, mainly due to higher nuclear fuel prices, higher nuclear waste fees in Sweden, higher co-owned nuclear procurement costs, mainly caused by longer outages in Oskarshamn, increased depreciation and interest costs, as well as inflationary effects and other costs. The increase in waste fees is estimated to be approximately EUR 15 million for the full year 2012. Also the increase in nuclear fuel prices is estimated to be approximately EUR 15 million for the full year 2012.
In January-June 2012, the division's total power generation in the Nordic countries was 23.9 (23.4) TWh, which corresponds to an approximately 2% increase compared to the same period in 2011. Power's achieved Nordic power price amounted to EUR 45.7 per MWh, which was EUR 1.9 per MWh lower than in the same period of 2011. The system price and both Finnish and Swedish area prices were clearly lower during January–June 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.
Fortum has two fully-owned reactors in Loviisa and the company is also a co-owner in eight reactors at the Olkiluoto, Oskarshamn and Forsmark nuclear power plants. Nuclear availability was at a high level in all of the reactors except Oskarshamn 1 and 3. Oskarshamn 1 was shut down at the end of October 2011 for an extensive turbine overhaul, and according to current data, will stay shut down until 12 September 2012 for further maintenance of the systems. Oskarshamn 3 was shut down for a total of approximately six weeks due to technical problems and a strike related to certain outage works. Oskarshamn 3 was operating at an approximately 100-MW reduced output until the planned annual outage that started 12 April. The outage ended on 4 June, after which the unit has reached the new increased power level of 1,400 MW; however, all power increase-related tests have not yet been completed.
European-wide safety evaluations have been carried out after the Fukushima incident in 2011. As part of the evaluations, so-called peer reviews were carried out in several European nuclear power plants, including the Loviisa nuclear power plant, in March 2012. The European Commission is expected to submit a consolidated report of the national reports to the European Council in October 2012.
Fortum's preparations for the French hydro concession bidding have progressed as planned.

The Heat Division's heat sales volumes amounted to 3.3 (3.6) TWh during the second quarter of 2012. During the same period, power sales volumes from CHP production totalled 0.8 (1.2) TWh. The decrease in volumes is mainly attributable to the divestments in Finland and Estonia in January 2012. The restructuring of the Turku region energy production in Finland also decreased volumes.
The Heat Division's comparable operating profit in the second quarter was EUR 23 (25) million, EUR 2 million lower than in the corresponding period of 2011. The main reasons for the decline were lower volumes related to the restructuring and lower power market prices.
The operating profit in the second quarter totalled EUR 20 (25) million.
Heat sales volumes during January-June 2012 amounted to 11.4 (14.0) TWh. During the same period, power sales volumes from CHP production totalled 2.5 (3.9) TWh. The divestment in Sweden in March 2011 and the divestments in Finland and Estonia in January 2012 reduced volumes. In addition, the restructuring of the Turku region energy production in Finland decreased volumes. Average temperature levels have been close to last year's corresponding period; the first quarter of the year was somewhat warmer than last year.
The Heat Division's comparable operating profit in January-June 2012 was EUR 184 (196) million, i.e., EUR 12 million lower than in the corresponding period of 2011. The decrease in the result was mainly due to lower volumes attributable to divestments and restructuring, and lower power market prices. However, in Sweden, the result improved due to good availability, fuel flexibility and the introduction of new district heat products.
The operating profit in January-June 2012 totalled EUR 233 (290) million, and includes a gain of EUR 58 (80) million related to divestments.

OAO Fortum operates in the well-developed industrial regions of the Urals and in oil-producing western Siberia.
The liberalisation of the Russian wholesale power market was completed by the beginning of 2011. However, all generating companies continue to sell a part of their electricity and capacity - an amount equalling the consumption of households and a few special groups of consumers - under regulated prices. During the second quarter, OAO Fortum sold approximately 83% of its power production at a liberalised electricity price.
The new rules for the capacity market, starting from 2011, were approved by the Russian Government. The generation capacity built after 2007 under the government capacity supply agreements (CSA – "new capacity") receive guaranteed payments for a period of 10 years. Prices for capacity under CSA are defined to ensure a sufficient return on investments.
At the time of the acquisition in 2008, Fortum made a provision, as penalty clauses are included in the CSA agreement in case of possible delays. Possible penalties can be claimed if the new capacity is delayed or if the agreed major terms of the capacity supply agreement are not otherwise fulfilled. The effect of changes in the timing of commissioning of new units is assessed at each balance sheet date and the provision is changed accordingly (see Note 18).
The capacity selection for 2012 (CCS for "old capacity", built prior to 2008) was held in September 2011. The majority of Fortum's power plants were selected in the auction, with a price level close to the level received in 2011. Approximately 4% (120 MW) of Fortum's old capacity was not allowed to participate in the selection, due to tightened minimal technical requirements. The capacity will, however, receive capacity payments at the average capacity market price for two additional years.
The Russia Division's power sales volumes amounted to 5.1 (4.6) TWh during the second quarter of 2012. Heat sales totalled 4.2 (4.3) TWh during the same period.
The Russia Division's comparable operating profit was EUR 4 (21) million in the second quarter of 2012. The comparison figure from 2011 includes a reversal of CSA provision of EUR 22 million. The positive effect from the commissioning of the new units in 2011 amounted to approximately EUR 17 (9) million, in the second quarter. The improvement was offset by the lower electricity price compared to the corresponding period last year. In addition, decreased capacity payments and volumes for the old capacity had a negative impact.
The operating profit was EUR 15 (21) million in the second quarter of 2012. It includes a gain of EUR 11 million relating to a divestment of heating network assets.
The commissioning of Fortum's largest new investment projects in Nyagan have been somewhat further postponed and the company estimates the commissioning of Nyagan 1 to take place around the turn of the year and Nyagan 2 during the first half of 2013 due to construction delays.
Fortum will build the last two units of its Russian investment programme in Chelyabinsk instead of in Tyumen. The units are to be constructed at Chelyabinsk GRES. Within the scope of the project, Fortum also plans to modernise and upgrade the existing equipment of the power plant.

The Russia Division's power sales volumes amounted to 11.3 (10.2) TWh during January-June 2012. Heat sales totalled 15.5 (15.3) TWh during the same period.
The Russia Division's comparable operating profit was EUR 52 (55) million in January-June 2012. The positive effect from the commissioning of the new units amounted to approximately EUR 41 (16) million. January-June 2011 included a reversal of provisions of EUR 22 million. The improvement
was offset by the lower electricity price compared to the corresponding period last year. In addition, decreased capacity payments and volumes for the old capacity had a negative impact.
The operating profit was EUR 63 (55) million in January-June 2012, and includes a gain of EUR 11 million relating to a divestment of heating network assets.
OAO Fortum's new capacity will be a key driver for earnings growth in Russia, as it will bring income from new volumes sold and also receive considerably higher capacity payments than the old capacity. However, received capacity payments will differ depending on the age, location, type and size of the plant as well as seasonality and availability.
The return for the new capacity is guaranteed as regulated in the Capacity Supply Agreement (CSA). The regulator will review the earnings from the electricity-only market after three years and six years and could revise the CSA payments accordingly. CSA payments can vary annually somewhat because they are linked to Russian Government long-term bonds with 8 to 10 years maturity.
The commissioning of Fortum's largest new investment greenfield projects in Nyagan has been somewhat further postponed. Fortum has ongoing discussions with its main contractor and Fortum estimates the commissioning of Nyagan 1 to take place around the turn of the year and Nyagan 2 during the first half of 2013 due to construction delays. This does not change the overall schedule or financial targets of the investment programme. In 2008, Fortum made a provision for penalties caused by possible commissioning delays, already. According to the agreement with the contractor, Fortum is entitled to adequate remedies in case of damages caused by contractor delays.
Fortum is committed to its EUR 2.5 billion investment programme in Russia, and the schedule of the programme is to commission the last new units in 2014. The value of the remaining part of the investment programme, calculated at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of June 2012, is estimated to be approximately EUR 800 million as of July 2012. Altogether, the investment programme consists of eight new power plant units, of which the first three units were commissioned in 2011.
After completing the ongoing investment programme, Fortum's goal is to achieve an operating profit level of about EUR 500 million in its Russia Division and to create positive economic value added in Russia.
In March 2012, the Russian Ministry for Economic Development approved three of OAO Fortum's power plant units as Joint Implementation projects: one Chelyabinsk CHP-3 unit and two Nyagan GRES units. All of these units are part of Fortum's extensive investment programme. The Joint Implementation projects, as defined in the Kyoto Protocol, will reduce carbon dioxide emissions in Russia, and Fortum will be able to use the related emission reduction units in the EU's emissions trading scheme or sell them on the market.
The division is responsible for Fortum's electricity sales and distribution activities and consists of two business areas: Distribution and Electricity Sales.
Fortum owns and operates distribution and regional networks and distributes electricity to a total of 1.6 million customers in Sweden, Finland and Norway.

The volume of distribution and regional network transmissions during the second quarter of 2012 totalled 5.6 (5.6) TWh and 3.9 (3.8) TWh, respectively.
The Distribution business area's comparable operating profit was EUR 49 (60) million. The main reason to the result decrease was somewhat higher fault repair and customer compensation costs than provisioned for at year-end 2011. In addition, costs relating to the accelerated improvement of network reliability in Finland impacted the result somewhat negatively already in the second quarter.
The operating profit in the second quarter of 2012 totalled 50 (252). The second quarter in 2011 includes a gain of EUR 192 million related to divestments.
In January–June 2012, the volume of distribution and regional network transmissions totalled 13.9 (14.2) TWh and 8.8 (8.7) TWh, respectively.
The Distribution business area's comparable operating profit was EUR 159 (184) million. The decrease in the result was mainly due to warm weather during the early part of 2012, the timing of the relocation of cables and parts of network, higher fault repair costs and customer compensations.
The operating profit in January-June 2012 totalled 167 (377). The January-June 2011 figure includes a gain of EUR 192 million relating to the divestment of Fingrid Oyj shares.
The rollout of smart metering with hourly measurement capabilities to network customers in Finland continued; by the end of second quarter of 2012, altogether 301,000 customers had received new meters (160,000 at the end of 2011). Before the end of 2013, a total of approximately 620,000 network customers will have smart metering. The benefits of the new system include invoicing based on actual electricity consumption and better control of the use of electricity. The new Finnish legislation on hourly meter reading will become effective 1 January 2014.
In Sweden, the Government's bill on the hourly measurement of electricity consumption for household customers was passed in the Parliament in mid-June 2012. The legislation stipulates that network companies should be able to offer hourly measurement to customers who have signed an electricity sales agreement that requires hourly measurement. It will come into force on 1 October 2012. The aim is to have all household customers on the hourly system by the end of 2015.
Both in Finland and Sweden, there are legal processes under way concerning the industry appeals made regarding the network income regulatory period 2012-2015, which came into force on 1 January 2012.

Fortum completed the divestment of small hydropower plants in Finland during January–June 2012. The capital gains from these transactions were EUR 47 million, which were booked in the Power Division's first-quarter results.
Through its interest in TVO (Teollisuuden Voima Oyj), Fortum is participating in the building of Olkiluoto 3, a 1,600-MW nuclear power plant unit in Finland. Based on the information submitted by AREVA-Siemens Consortium, Teollisuuden Voima Oyj (TVO) estimates that the Olkiluoto 3 nuclear power plant unit will not be ready for regular electricity production in 2014. TVO received an International Chamber of Commerce arbitration tribunal decision concerning a few partial payments previously made, to a blocked account, and to be released to the Olkiluoto 3 plant supplier. The decision takes no position on the delay of the plant unit and the cost resulting from the delay.
TVO completed plant upgrades and further improved the safety of Olkiluoto nuclear power plant during 2010 – 2012. As a result, the power output of both Olkiluoto 1 and Olkiluoto 2 increased by approximately 20 MW each.
In addition, TVO has started the bidding and engineering phase of the company's fourth nuclear unit at Olkiluoto. Fortum's share of the commitment for this phase is approximately EUR 77 million. During the first quarter of 2012, TVO raised EUR 20 million in shareholder loans; Fortum's share of this is approximately EUR 5 million.
Fortum also decided to refurbish the Höljes dam in the northwest part of Värmland in Sweden. The value of the refurbishment is about EUR 50 million over a four-year period. The Höljes refurbishment will meet the latest requirements for dam safety. The dam safety work has started in early summer 2012 and will be finalised during 2015.
In January, Fortum concluded its divestment of Fortum Energiaratkaisut Oy and Fortum Termest AS to EQT Infrastructure Fund. The divestment has been approved by the relevant competition authorities both in Finland and Estonia. The total sales price, including net debt, was approximately EUR 200 million. Fortum's sales gain was EUR 58 million. The divestment is in line with the strategy to focus on large-scale CHP production.
The energy production of the co-owned Turun Seudun Maakaasu ja Energiatuotanto Oy (TSME) started on 1 January, as agreed by the different partners in late 2011. TSME is a co-owned company that consolidates the energy production in the Turku region in Finland.
In February, Fortum opened up the possibility for customers to sell their own surplus heat to Fortum's grid at market price in Stockholm, Sweden. The first agreement was signed in June and is part of a pilot project. Many customers have expressed their interest by signing letters of intent. The first customers will be able to sell surplus heat in 2012; the aim is for all customers to be able to sell their surplus heat starting in 2013.
In March, Fortum decided to invest about EUR 20 million in the commercialisation of new technology by building a bio-oil plant connected to the Joensuu power plant in Finland. The total value of the investment is about EUR 30 million, of which the Ministry of Employment and the Economy has granted EUR 8.1 million as a new technology investment.
The modernisation of the district heating networks continued in Poland during January–June 2012 and the production plants were upgraded at the same time. The aim is to increase efficiency and the usage of biomass. During 2012, the use of biomass has increased at the Czestochowa CHP plant in Poland; the long- term target is to increase the amount of biomass from 25% to 35%.
In Jelgava, Latvia, Fortum started the construction of the first large-scale bio-fuel CHP plant in April. Fortum is proceeding with the construction of the Klaipeda waste-to-energy CHP plant, the first of its kind in the Baltics.
In June, Fortum sold its heating network assets in Surgut, Russia, to Surgut City Grid LLC. Fortum does not have its own CHP production in Surgut. In addition, Surgut is distant from the other
operations of Fortum's Russian subsidiary OAO. The divestment was finalised on 30 June 2012, and resulted in a EUR 11 million gain.
In June, Fortum announced its decision to build the last two 250-megawatt units of its Russian investment programme at Chelyabinsk in the Urals. Initially, the units were planned for construction in the Tyumen region in Western Siberia. The units are included in the Capacity Supply Agreement, originally agreed upon in 2008. Fortum has received approval for the relocation from the Russian Government, including the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation and the Russian Ministry of Energy as well as the local authorities.
The new units are to be constructed at Chelyabinsk GRES. Within the scope of the project, Fortum also plans to modernise and upgrade the existing equipment of the power plant.
According to a deal signed with Imatran Seudun Sähkö on 20 December 2011, Imatran Seudun Sähkö acquired Distribution's Estonian subsidiary Fortum Elekter. In connection with the agreement, Distribution also sold its ownership in Imatran Seudun Sähkö Oy. The deal was finalised at the beginning of January 2012.

During January–June, Fortum decided to invest in the commercialisation of new technology by building a bio-oil plant connected to the Joensuu power plant in Finland. The CHP-integrated bio-oil plant, based on fast pyrolysis technology, is the first of its kind in the world on an industrial scale. The new technology has been developed in cooperation between Metso, UPM, VTT (as part of the TEKES Biorefine research programme) and Fortum. The bio-oil plant, which will be integrated with the CHP plant in Joensuu, will produce electricity and district heat, and, in the future, 50,000 tonnes of bio-oil per year. The bio-oil raw materials will include forest residues and other wood-based biomass.
A new research programme on efficient energy use (EFEU) was started by CLEEN Ltd. The value of the five-year programme is approximately EUR 12 million and it will be carried out by a wide group of equipment manufacturers, energy companies and research institutions. Energy efficiency presents the most important means in managing global climate change. Fortum's main activities in the EFEU programme include eco-efficient heating and cooling solutions, climate-benign electricity and heat production chains and new energy efficiency service business models integrated with new technologies.
In addition, Fortum introduced a Smart Grid product to buy back the excess production from customers who produce their own electricity with small wind, hydro and solar power plants in parts of Sweden. In Estonia, a home charging package was launched for owners of the 100% electric Nissan LEAF. The system has been developed in partnership with Fortum and Nissan's Electric Mobility Operator (EMO). In Poland, a four year contract with Wroclaw Technical University was signed in order to increase the efficiency of absorption cooling units when operating in low temperatures and to increase CHP's summer loads in district heating networks.
The Group reports its R&D expenditure on a yearly basis. In 2011, Fortum's R&D expenditure was EUR 38 million (2010: 30 million) or 0.6% of sales (2010: 0.5%) and 1.1% of total expenses (2010: 0.8%).
Fortum strives for balanced management of economic, social and environmental responsibility in the company's operations. The company's sustainability approach defines Group-level targets guiding operations and the key indicators to monitor them. Based on these, the divisions set their divisionlevel targets and indicators and outline the measures needed to achieve the targets.
The company is listed on the Dow Jones Sustainability Index World (the only Nordic utility in the index), and Fortum is also included in the STOXX Global ESG Leaders indices and in the NASDAQ OMX and GES Investment Service's new OMX GES Sustainability Finland index.
In the area of economic responsibility, the focus is on competitiveness, performance excellence and market-driven production. The aim is to create long-term economic value and enable profitable growth and added value for shareholders, customers, employees, goods suppliers, and other key stakeholders in the company's operating areas. Fortum's goal is to achieve excellent financial performance in strategically selected core areas through strong competence and responsible ways of operating. The key figures by which Fortum measures its financial success include return on capital employed (target: 12%), return on shareholders' equity (target: 14%) and capital structure (target: comparable net debt/EBITDA around 3). In addition, Fortum also uses the applicable Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) G3.1 indicators for reporting economic responsibility.
Fortum's environmental responsibility emphasises mitigation of climate change, efficient use of resources and management of the impacts of our energy production, distribution and supply chain. Our know-how in CO2-free hydro and nuclear power production and in energy-efficient CHP production is highlighted in environmental responsibility. Fortum's Group-level environmental targets are related to carbon-dioxide emissions, energy efficiency and environmental management system certifications. In addition, the divisions have defined their own environmental goals related to their respective business. The achievements of the environmental targets are monitored through monthly, quarterly and annual reporting.
Fortum's climate targets over the next five years comprise specific CO2 emissions from power generation in the EU of below 80 grams per kilowatt-hour (g/kWh) and specific CO2 emissions from the total energy production (electricity and heat) of below 200 g/kWh, covering all operating countries. Both targets are calculated as a five-year average.
At the end of June 2012, the five-year average for specific CO2 emissions from power generation in the EU was at 63 g/kWh and the specific CO2 emissions from the total energy production was at 173 g/kWh, both better than the target level. Fortum's total CO2 emissions in January - June 2012 amounted to 10.7 (14.0) million tonnes (Mt), of which 2.6 (5.7) Mt were within the EU's emissions trading scheme (ETS).
In January - June 2012, approximately 67% (58%) of the power generated by Fortum was CO2-free. The corresponding figure for Fortum's generation within the EU was 92% (79%).The main reason behind the high share of CO2-free power is that no condensing power was produced at the Inkoo and Meri-Pori coal-fired power plants.

Overall efficiency of fuel use was 68% as a five-year average, the target is >70%. At the end of the second quarter of 2012, 95% of Fortum's operations globally had ISO 14001 environmental certification.
In the area of social responsibility, Fortum's innovations and the secure supply of low-carbon power and heat support the development of society and increase well-being. Good corporate citizenship and ensuring a safe working environment for all employees and contractors at Fortum sites are emphasised. A Group-level target has been defined for occupational safety. In addition to ISO 14001, the goal is to have OHSAS 18001 certification for all operational management systems. In January - June 2012, the Group-level lost workday injury frequency (LWIF) continued at a good level at 1.7 (2.3). An unfortunate fatal accident occurred to a Fortum contractor in Russia in April. Fortum's safety target is to reach a LWIF level that is less than one per million working hours for its own personnel. This reflects the Group's zero tolerance for accidents.
Fortum wants to conduct business with viable companies that act responsibly and comply with the Fortum Code of Conduct and Fortum Supplier Code of Conduct. In January–June 2012, altogether six supplier audits were conducted. In the beginning of 2012, Fortum joined the Better Coal Initiative, aiming for continuous improvement of corporate responsibility in the supply chain of coal.
Markus Rauramo (43), M.Sc., Political Sciences, has been appointed as the new Chief Financial Officer (CFO) at Fortum Corporation. He will be a member of Fortum Management Team and will report to President and CEO Tapio Kuula. Markus Rauramo joins Fortum from Stora Enso, where he has held various managerial and leadership positions since 1993, most recently as CFO. Markus Rauramo will start at Fortum in August 2012 and as a CFO on 1 September 2012.
Fortum's long-time CFO, Juha Laaksonen, will retire according to his terms of employment at the beginning of 2013.
Fortum Corporation's Annual General Meeting, which was held in Helsinki on 11 April 2012, adopted the financial statements of the parent company and the Group for 2011, discharged Fortum's Supervisory Board from liability for the time period 1 January - 4 April 2011, and Fortum's Board of Directors as well as the President and CEO from liability for 2011.
The Annual General Meeting decided to pay a dividend of EUR 1.00 per share for 2011. The record date for the dividend payment was 16 April 2012 and the dividend payment date was 23 April 2012.
The Annual General Meeting confirmed the number of members in the Board of Directors to be seven. Sari Baldauf was re-elected as Chairman and Christian Ramm-Schmidt as Deputy Chairman, and members Minoo Akhtarzand, Heinz-Werner Binzel, Ilona Ervasti-Vaintola and Joshua Larson were re-elected. Kim Ignatius was elected as a new member to the Board of Directors.
The Annual General Meeting confirmed the annual compensation of EUR 75,000 per year to the Chairman, EUR 57,000 per year to the Deputy Chairman and EUR 40,000 per year to each member of the Board, as well as EUR 57,000 per year to the Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee if he or she is not at the same time acting as Chairman or Deputy Chairman. In addition, a EUR 600 fee is paid for Board meetings as well as for committee meetings. The meeting fee is doubled for Board members who live outside Finland but in Europe and tripled for members living elsewhere outside Finland. Members of the Board of Directors are compensated for travel expenses in accordance with the company's travel policy.
The Annual General Meeting also confirmed the appointment of a Nomination Board to prepare proposals concerning Board members and their remuneration for the next Annual General Meeting. The Nomination Board will consist of the representatives of the three main shareholders and, in addition, the Chairman of the Board of Directors as an expert member. The Nomination Board will be convened by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, and the Nomination Board will choose a chairman from among its own members. The Nomination Board shall give its proposal to the Board of Directors of the company at the latest by 1 February preceding the Annual General Meeting.
In addition, Authorised Public Accountant Deloitte & Touche Oy was re-elected as auditor and the auditor's fee is paid pursuant to an invoice approved by the company.
Fortum's financial results are exposed to a number of strategic, financial and operational risks. The key factor influencing Fortum's business performance is the wholesale price of electricity in the Nordic region. The key drivers behind the wholesale price development in the Nordic region are the supply-demand balance, fuel and CO2 emissions allowance prices as well as the hydrological situation. The completion of Fortum's investment programme in Russia is also one key driver to the company's result growth.
The continued global economic uncertainty and Europe's sovereign-debt crisis weaken the outlook for economic growth in the mid-term, especially in the Euro zone. The overall economic uncertainty impacts the commodity and CO2 emission allowance prices and this in combination with the stronger hydrological situation in the Nordic region, could maintain downward pressure on the Nordic wholesale price for electricity in the short-term. In the Russian business, the key factors are the development of the regulation around electricity and capacity markets and operational risks related to the investment projects according to the investment programme. In all regions, fuel prices and power plant availability also impact the profitability. In addition, increased volatility in exchange rates due to financial turbulence might have both translation and transaction effects on Fortum's financials especially through the SEK and RUB.
Despite macroeconomic uncertainty, electricity will continue to gain a higher share of the total energy consumption. Fortum currently expects the average annual growth rate in electricity consumption to be on average 0.5%, while the growth rate for the nearest years will largely be determined by the macroeconomic development in Europe and especially in the Nordic countries.
During the second quarter of 2012, the price of crude oil decreased steadily, whereas the decrease in the coal price stabilised towards the end of the quarter. The price of CO2 emissions allowances (EUA) weakened somewhat during the quarter. The forward price of electricity for the next twelve months came down both in the Nordic area and in Germany.
The future quotations for coal (ICE Rotterdam) for the rest of 2012 were around USD 92 per tonne and the market price for CO2 emissions allowances (EUA) for 2012 was about EUR 8 per tonne.
In mid-July 2012, the electricity forward price in Nord Pool for the rest of 2012 was around EUR 34 per MWh. For 2013, the electricity forward price was around EUR 38 per MWh and for 2014 around EUR 39 per MWh. In Germany, the electricity forward price for the rest of 2012 was around EUR 45 per MWh and for 2013 EUR 49 per MWh.
In mid-July 2012, Nordic water reservoirs were about 2 TWh above the long-term average and 3 TWh above the corresponding level of 2011.
The Power Division's Nordic power price typically depends on e.g. the hedge ratio, hedge price, spot prices, availability and utilisation of Fortum's flexible production portfolio, and currency fluctuations. Excluding the potential effects from the changes in the power generation mix, a 1 EUR/MWh change in the Power Division's Nordic power sales price will result in an approximately EUR 45 million change in Fortum's annual comparable operating profit. In addition, the comparable operating profit of the Power Division will be affected by the possible thermal power generation amount and its profit.
The several years of ongoing Swedish nuclear investment programmes will enhance safety, improve availability and increase the capacity of the current nuclear fleet. The implementation of the investment programmes might affect availability. Fortum's power procurement costs from co-owned
nuclear companies are affected by these investment programmes through increased depreciation and finance costs.
European-wide safety evaluations have been carried out post Fukushima. As part of the evaluations, so-called peer reviews were carried out in March 2012 in several European nuclear power plants, including the Loviisa nuclear power plant. The European Commission is estimated to submit a consolidated report of the national reports to the European Council in October 2012. Fortum believes that some additional safety criteria could be introduced for nuclear power plants based on the evaluations and that they could be implemented for the Loviisa nuclear power plant within the framework of the annual investment programmes.
According to the legislation in Sweden, nuclear waste fees and guarantees are updated at regular intervals. At the end of December 2011, the Government decided upon fees and guarantees for 2012-2014. The negative impact from increased nuclear waste fees on Fortum's comparable operating profit is estimated to be approximately EUR 15 million per year in 2012-2014.
Nuclear fuel costs in all Fortum nuclear power plants are expected to increase in total by approximately EUR 15 million in 2012, due to the increased market price of uranium and enrichment.
The Russian wholesale power market was liberalised from the beginning of 2011. All generating companies continue to sell a part of their electricity and capacity equalling the consumption of households and a special group of consumers (Northern Caucasus Republic, Tyva Republic, Buryat Republic) under regulated prices.
The new rules for the capacity market starting from 2011 have been approved by the Russian Government. The generation capacity built after 2007 under government Capacity Supply Agreements (CSA – "new capacity") receive guaranteed payments for a period of 10 years. Prices for capacity under CSA are defined in order to ensure a sufficient return on investments.
Capacity not under CSA competes in competitive capacity selection (CCS – "old capacity"). The capacity selection for 2012 was held in September 2011. The majority of Fortum's power plants were selected in the auction, with a price level close to the level received in 2011. Approximately 4% (120 MW) of the old capacity was not allowed to participate in the selection due to tightened minimal technical requirements. It will, however, receive capacity payments at the capacity market price for two additional years.
OAO Fortum's new capacity will be a key driver for earnings growth in Russia as it will bring income from new volumes sold and also receive considerably higher capacity payments than the old capacity. However, the received capacity payment will differ depending on age, the location, size and type of the plants as well as seasonality and availability. Especially the old capacity payments for CHP power plants are burdened during the summer period due to the temperature constraints evolving from lower heat demand.
The return on the new capacity is guaranteed as regulated in the Capacity Supply Agreement. The regulator will review the earnings from the electricity-only market after three years and six years and could revise the CSA payments accordingly. CSA payments can vary annually somewhat because they are linked to Russian Government long-term bonds with 8 to 10 years maturity.
The commissioning of Fortum's largest new investment greenfield projects in Nyagan has been somewhat further postponed. Fortum has ongoing discussions with its main contractor and Fortum estimates the commissioning of Nyagan 1 to take place around the turn of the year and Nyagan 2 during the first half of 2013 due to construction delays. This does not change the overall schedule or financial targets of the investment programme. In 2008, Fortum made a provision for penalties caused by possible commissioning delays, already. According to the agreement with the contractor, Fortum is entitled to adequate remedies in case of damages caused by contractor delays.
In June, Fortum announced its decision to build the last two 250-megawatt (MW) units of its Russian investment programme at Chelyabinsk in the Urals. Initially, the units were planned for construction
in the Tyumen region in Western Siberia. The units are included within the sphere of the Capacity Supply Agreement originally agreed in 2008.
The new units are to be constructed at Chelyabinsk GRES. Within the scope of the project, Fortum also plans to modernise and upgrade the existing power plant equipment.
Fortum is planning to commission the last new units of its EUR 2.5 billion investment programme in Russia by the end of 2014. The value of the remaining part of the investment programme, calculated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of June 2012, is estimated to be approximately EUR 800 million as of July 2012.
After completing the ongoing investment programme, Fortum's goal is to achieve an operating profit level of about EUR 500 million in its Russia Division and to create positive economic added value in Russia.
The Russian Government decided to increase the gas prices as of the beginning 1 July 2012; the increase was approximately 15%. On the other hand, prices for regulated electricity sales, heat sales and CCS capacity income will be indexed at rates lower than in 2011.
Fortum currently expects its capital expenditure in 2012 to be around EUR 1.6-1.8 billion and in 2013-2014 around EUR 1.1 -1.4 billion, excluding potential acquisitions. The main reason for the high capital expenditures in 2012 is the acceleration of Fortum's Russian investment programme. The annual maintenance capital expenditure is estimated to be about EUR 500-550 million in 2012, approximately at the level of depreciation.
The effective corporate tax rate for Fortum in 2012 is estimated to be 19-21%, excluding the impact of the share of profits of associated companies and joint ventures, non-taxable capital gains and non-recurring items. In Finland, the corporate tax rate was decreased to 24.5% from 26% starting 1 January 2012.
In March 2012, the Finnish Government announced that a so-called windfall tax will be introduced in 2014.
The process to update the real-estate taxation values for the year 2013 is ongoing in Sweden. The update is done in a cycle of six years.
At the end of June 2012, approximately 65% of the Power Division's estimated Nordic power sales volume was hedged at approximately EUR 49 per MWh for the rest of the calendar year 2012. The corresponding figures for the calendar year 2013 were about 55% at approximately EUR 45 per MWh.
The hedge price for Power Division's Nordic generation excludes hedging of condensing power margin. In addition, the hedge ratio excludes the financial hedges and physical volume of Fortum's coal-condensing generation as well as the division's imports from Russia.
The reported hedge ratios may vary significantly, depending on Fortum's actions on the electricity derivatives markets. Hedges are mainly financial contracts, most of them Nord Pool forwards.
The Annual General Meeting decided to pay a dividend of EUR 1.00 per share for 2011. The record date for the dividend payment was 16 April 2012 and the dividend payment date was 23 April 2012.

Translation differences impacted equity attributable to owners of the parent company with EUR 65 million during Q1-Q2 2012 (Q1-Q2 2011: -1) mainly relating to RUB, NOK and SEK amounting to EUR 56 million in Q1-Q2 2012 (Q1-Q2 2011: 5).
Translation of financial information from subsidiaries in foreign currency is done using average rate for the income statement and end rate for the balance sheet. The exchange rate differences occurring from translation to EUR are booked to equity. For information regarding exchange rates used, see Note 8 Exchange rates.
The impact on equity attributable to owners of the parent from fair valuation of cash flow hedges, EUR -5 million during Q1-Q2 2012 (Q1-Q2 2011: 343), mainly relates to cash flow hedges hedging electricity price for future transactions, where hedge accounting is applied. When electricity price is lower/higher than the hedging price, the impact on equity is positive/negative.
The dividend for 2011 was decided at the Annual General Meeting on 11 April 2012. The dividend was paid on 23 April 2012. The dividend for 2010 was decided at the Annual General Meeting on 31 March 2011. See Note 11 Dividend per share.

1) Including cash balances of EUR 16 million relating to assets held for sale as of 31 December 2011.
Non-cash flow items and divesting activities mainly consist of adjustments for unrealised fair value changes of derivatives EUR 21 million for Q1-Q2 2012 (Q1-Q2 2011: -268) and capital gains EUR -121 million for Q1-Q2 2012 (Q1-Q2 2011: -275). The actual proceeds for divestments are shown under cash flow from investing activities.
Realised foreign exchange gains and losses EUR -113 million for Q1-Q2 2012 (Q1-Q2 2011: -251) mainly related to financing of Fortum's Swedish subsidiaries and the fact that the Group's main external financing currency is EUR. The foreign exchange gains and losses arise for rollover of foreign exchange contracts hedging the internal loans as major part of these forwards is entered into with short maturities i.e. less than twelve months.

The condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the EU. The condensed interim financial report should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2011.
The same accounting policies and presentation have been followed in these condensed interim financial statements as were applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2011.
The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2011.

The liability regarding the Loviisa nuclear power plant is calculated according to the Nuclear Energy Act and was decided by the Ministry of Employment and Economy in December 2011. The liability is based on a technical plan, which is made every third year. The technical plan and the cost estimates were last updated in Q2 2010.
The legal liability on 30 June 2012 was EUR 968 million. The provision in the balance sheet related to nuclear waste management is based on cash flows for future costs which uses the same basis as the legal liability. The carrying value of the nuclear provision, calculated according to IAS 37, increased by EUR 11 million compared to 31 December 2011, totalling EUR 664 million on 30 June 2012. The main reason for the difference between the carrying value of the provision and the legal liability is the fact that the legal liability is not discounted to net present value.
Fortum contributes funds to the State Nuclear Waste Management Fund based on the yearly funding obligation target decided by the governmental authorities in December in connection with the decision of size of the legal liability. The current funding obligation target based on the legal liability decided in December 2011 and approved periodising of the payments to the Fund is EUR 941 million. Fortum has paid the fee of EUR 38 million whereafter Fortum's share of the State Nuclear Waste Management Fund is fully funded. The Fund is from an IFRS perspective overfunded with EUR 277 million, since Fortum's share of the Fund on 30 June 2012 was EUR 941 million and the carrying value in the balance sheet was EUR 664 million.
Operating profit in Power segment is affected by the accounting principle for Fortum's share of the Finnish Nuclear Waste Management Fund, since the carrying value of the Fund in Fortum's balance sheet can in maximum be equal to the amount of the provisions according to IFRS. As long as the Fund is overfunded from an IFRS perspective, the effects to operating profit from this adjustment will be positive if the provisions increase more than the Fund and negative if actual value of the fund increases more than the provisions. This accounting effect is not included in Comparable operating profit in Fortum financial reporting, see Other items affecting comparability in Note 4. Fortum had an effect from this adjustment in Q2 of EUR -7 million, compared to EUR -8 million in Q2 2011. The cumulative effect 2012 was EUR -16 million compared to EUR -12 million in 2011.
Fortum has minority shareholdings in associated Finnish and Swedish nuclear production companies. Fortum has for these companies accounted for its share of the effects from nuclear related assets and provisions according to Fortum accounting principles.

Fortum's extensive investment programme in Russia (8 units) is subject to possible penalties that can be claimed if the new capacity is substantially delayed or agreed major terms of the capacity supply agreement (CSA) are not otherwise fulfilled. The new rules for the long-term capacity market were approved in the beginning of 2011. This brought also more clarity to the possible penalties imposed on late delivery. Penalties are now defined on power plant level. This means that Fortum's risk for penalties under CSA agreement is proportionally decreasing when a new unit starts operation.
The effect of changes in the timing of commissioning of new power plants is assessed at each balance sheet date and provision is changed accordingly. The increase in the provision due to the discounting during Q1-Q2 2012 amounted to EUR 7 million. This amount was booked in other financial expenses.

The size of the securities given is updated yearly in Q2 based on the decisions regarding the legal liabilities and the funding target which takes place around year end every year.

Guarantees and other contingent liabilities on behalf of associated companies and joint ventures mainly consist of guarantees relating to Fortum's associated nuclear companies (Teollisuuden Voima Oyj, Forsmarks Kraftgrupp AB and OKG AB). The guarantees for Forsmarks Kraftgrupp AB and OKG AB for 2012-2014 will be increased from current SEK 2,574 million (EUR 293 million) to SEK 3,696 million (EUR 421 million) later in 2012.
The guarantee given on behalf of Teollisuuden Voima Oyj (TVO) to the Finnish fund amount to EUR 39 million at 30 June 2012 (31 December 2011: 44).
The Swedish Energy Authority (EI), which regulates and supervises the distribution network tariffs in Sweden, has issued a decision concerning the allowed income frame for the years 2012-2015. EI has based its decision on a model with a transition rule stating that it takes 18 years to reach the allowed level of income according to the new model. The EI decision has been appealed to the County Administrative Court by more than 80 distribution companies, including Fortum Distribution AB. The basis for Fortum Distribution AB's appeal is that the model is not compatible with the existing legislation and that EI has applied an incorrect method for the calculation of Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC).
In Finland, the Energy market authority has issued methodology decisions for the years 2012-2015. The decisions were appealed by more than 70 distribution companies. Main points of the appeal relate to the changes in WACC-calculation and increased quality sanctions. Market Court ruling is expected earliest by the end of 2012.
Fortum's subsidiaries, Fortum Sweden AB and Fortum Nordic AB, have received an income tax assessment for the year 2009 from the Swedish tax authorities. According to the tax authorities, Fortum would have to pay additional income taxes for the year 2009 for the reallocation of the loans between the Swedish subsidiaries in 2004-2005. The claim is based on the change in tax regulation as of 2009. Fortum considers the claim unjustifiable and has appealed the decision. No provision has been accounted for in the financial statements. If the decision by the tax authority remains final despite the appeals process, the impact on the net profit for the period would be approximately 420 MSEK.
AREVA-Siemens has filed a request for an arbitration in December 2008, concerning Olkiluoto 3 delay and related costs. The supplier has in June 2011 submitted its updated statement of claim, which includes updated claimed amounts with specified sums of indirect items and interest. The Supplier's presented monetary claim including indirect items and interest is currently approximately EUR 1.9 billion. TVO has considered and found the claim by the Supplier to be without merit. TVO has, in response, filed a counter-claim in April 2009 based on costs primarily due to delays. The value of TVO's presented counter-claim is currently approximately EUR 1.4 billion. TVO will update its counter-claim during the arbitration proceedings. The arbitration proceedings may continue for several years and the claimed and counter-claimed amounts may change. TVO received an International Chamber of Commerce arbitration tribunal decision concerning a few partial payments previously made, to a blocked account, to be released to the Olkiluoto 3 plant supplier. The decision takes no position on the delay of the plant unit and the cost resulting from the delay.
In addition to the litigations described above, some Group companies are involved in tax and other disputes incidental to their business. In management's opinion the outcome of such disputes will not have material effect on the Group's financial position.
