Vesa Korpimies, President and CEO:

"During the second quarter 2009, the impact of the financial crisis has continued, affecting also market demand in the pultrusion business negatively. Our sales in the second quarter of 2009 were 14.1 per cent lower than last year. Especially the machine industry, sports and leisure, paper industry and telecommunication markets were affected. Our sales were relatively good in Europe compared to the situation on the Asian markets, which suffered from tough competition particularly in China. Sales to transportation and general industries, especially defense, improved due to new applications.

To address lower sales, we continued actions to adjust Exel Composites' cost base. We maintained a strong emphasis on profitability and operative working capital reduction, safeguarded good cash flow and improved our financial position. The operating profit margin increased to 12.4 (8.7) per cent of net sales.

Composites product market demand is uncertain and we have prepared for the weakening trend to continue. We have initiated further actions to control costs to adapt to lower sales volume, to streamline the operating working capital and to amortize debt. We will also continue to have a strong focus on sales to current and new customers."

• IFRS 8 Operating segments. The standard replaces IAS 14 Segment Reporting. From this interim onwards, Exel Composites will be reporting only with one segment, Exel Composites.

The Group applies the standard as of this interim report. - IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation and IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements – Puttable Financial Instruments and Obligations Arising on Liquidation. According to the revised standard requires entities to classify puttable financial instruments and instruments, or components of instruments that impose on the entity an obligation to deliver to another party a pro rata share of net assets of the entity only on liquidation as equity, provided the financial instruments have particular features and meet specific conditions. The Group applies the standard as of this interim report.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Net sales of continued operations in April-June 2009 were EUR 19.3 (22.4) million. Sales in almost all geographical markets and market segments decreased in the second quarter. However, sales to general industries, especially defense, improved due to new applications. Also, sales within the transportation segment to train and tram customers were on a good level in the second quarter. On the other hand, the truck and trailer business has been hit hard due to the recession. Sales within the building and construction segment have shown some resilience in Australia due to governmental financial packages.

Exel's operating profit of continued operations for April-June 2009 increased to EUR 2.4 million, compared to EUR 1.9 million (including EUR 0.7 million of nonrecurring items) the corresponding period last year.

Several new products were developed during the second quarter e.g. in energy industry and general industry applications.

Net sales of continued operations in January-June 2009 decreased by 12.8 per cent to EUR 37.8 (43.4) million compared to the corresponding period in 2008. Especially the machine industry, sports and leisure, paper industry and telecommunication markets were affected. Our sales were relatively good in Europe compared to the situation on the Asian market, which suffered from tough competition especially in China.

Exel's operating profit of continued operations for the first six months of 2009 decreased to EUR 4.4 (4.6 including EUR 0.7 million of non-recurring items) million, compared to the corresponding period last year. Operating profit as a percentage of net sales was 11.6 (10.7) per cent.

The comprehensive rationalization program of the Exel Group has restored profitability to satisfactory levels by reducing operational costs and streamlining the capital employed.

The Group's net financial expenses in January-June were EUR +0.2 (-0.5) million. The main reasons for the improvement were lower interest rates, lower debt and

favorable currency exchange rates, especially the Australian dollar. The Group's profit before taxes from continuing operations was EUR 4.6 (4.1) million and profit after taxes EUR 3.4 (3.0) million.

Earnings per share were totally EUR 0.30, EUR 0.29 from continuing operations and EUR 0.02 from discontinued operations. Return on investment was 21.1 (-15.7) per cent.

BALANCE SHEET AND FINANCIAL POSITION

Exel maintained a strong emphasis on cash flow and improved the financial position. Reinforced measures were taken to reduce operative working capital and cash flow from business operations for the first half year 2009 was positive at EUR +6.2 (+0.4) million. Cash flow before financing, but after capital expenditure, was EUR +6.8 (-0.2) million.

Net interest-bearing liabilities were reduced to EUR 13.9 million compared to 30,7 million June 30, 2008, and the net gearing ratio was improved to 63.5 (178.4) per cent.

Capital expenditure was financed with cash flow from business operations. At the end of the second quarter the Group's liquid assets stood at EUR 9.6 (5.4) million.

The Group's consolidated total assets at the end of the financial year were EUR 61.1 (70.3) million.

Equity at the end of the period under review was EUR 22.0 (17.2) million and equity ratio 35.9 (24.5) per cent. Interest-bearing liabilities amounted to EUR 23.5 (36.1) million, of which short-term liabilities accounted for EUR 4.1 (10.8) million.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURE AND DEPRECIATION

The capital expenditure on fixed assets during the review period amounted to EUR 0.8 (0.7) million.

During the second quarter we sold tangible assets with EUR 0.4 million. The capital gain was EUR 0.2 million, which is recorded in the other operating income.

Total depreciation of non-current assets during the period under review amounted to EUR 1.6 (2.3) million.

PERSONNEL

The number of Exel Group employees on 30 June 2009 was 442 (537), of whom 205 (235) worked in Finland and 237 (302) in other countries. The average number of personnel during the reporting period was 452 (563). The decrease both in Finland and abroad is due to the rationalization of personnel in the Finnish, British and Chinese units and divestments of Exel Sports Brands' Outdoor and Floorball businesses.

Co-determination negotiations were started in the Finnish units of the Exel Group due to declining demand and to improve efficiency. The negotiations concern all the persons working in the Finnish units. The aim is to conclude the negotiations during week 31.

At the end of June 2009, Exel's share capital was EUR 2,141,431.74 and the number of shares was 11,896,843. There were no changes in the share capital during the review period.

Based on the closing price on 30 June 2009, the market capitalization totaled EUR 62.5 (86.8) million. During the reporting period 1,559,432 (719,190) shares were traded, accounting for 13.1 (6.0) per cent of the average number of shares outstanding.

Exel Composites did not hold any own shares at the end of the period under review.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The Annual General Meeting of Exel Plc was held on 16 April 2009. The financial accounts of the Group were approved and the members of the Board of Directors and the President were discharged from their liabilities for the financial year 2008. The AGM approved the Board's proposal not to distribute a dividend for the financial period that ended on 31 December 2008. The AGM decided to amend Section 1 of the Articles of Association regarding the Company Name and Domicile and changed the Company name to Exel Composites Oyj in Finnish and Exel Composites Plc in English. The AGM also decided to amend Section 10 of the Articles of Association regarding Invitations to Meetings to comply with the Finnish Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies.

The AGM also authorized Exel's Board of Directors to acquire the Company's own shares by using unrestricted equity. The maximum amount to be acquired is 600,000 shares.

Exel had a total of 1,715 shareholders on 30 June 2009. For the current shareholder structure, please see www.exelcomposites.com.

Exel Composites received no flagging notifications during the second quarter of 2009.

CHANGES IN GROUP STRUCTURE

Exel Composites and its wholly-owned subsidiary Exel Sports Oy signed draft terms of merger on 17 June 2009 according to which Exel Sports Oy will merge into its parent company Exel Composites Plc. The draft terms of merger were entered in the Finnish Trade Register on 23 June 2009.

According to the draft terms of merger, Exel Sports Oy's assets and liabilities will be transferred to the parent company Exel Composites Plc without liquidation. No merger consideration will be paid for the merger, as the parent company owns all of the shares of the merging company. The merger will not cause any amendments to Exel Composite Plc's Articles of Association. The reason for the merger is the clarification of the company structure. The intended date of registration of the implementation of the merger is 31 December 2009.

NAME CHANGE

Based on the decision of Exel's Annual General Meeting on 16 April 2009, the change of Exel Plc's business name was entered into the Trade Register on 23 April 2009. The Company's new name is Exel Composites Plc in English and Exel Composites Oyj in Finnish. Exel will remain the Company's secondary company name.

CHANGES IN MANAGEMENT

Pertti Kainu was appointed General Manager of Exel Composites China on 15 June 2009.

MAJOR NEAR-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The most significant near-term business risks are related to market demand. Raw material price, energy cost and other cost increases may put pressure on profitability. Currency rate changes, and further intensified price competition may also have a negative effect on the result. The cost and poor availability of bank financing may weaken the demand in Exel Composites' market and may increase the credit loss risks and have an effect on the Exel Group.

OUTLOOK

The pultrusion market is affected by the worldwide business slow-down. A weakened demand has been observed in several geographical markets and market segments. Composites product market demand is uncertain and we have prepared for the weakening trend to continue. This is expected to have a negative impact also on the margin development.

Due to the volatile situation and poor visibility of the market development, the Group has implemented comprehensive cost and capital reduction programs to protect profitability, to manage cash flow and to reduce net debt. Furthermore, Exel has developed contingency plans to respond promptly to further market decline.

Due to the market uncertainty and poor visibility, Exel Composites will not give any profit guidance.
