"Olvi Group's first-quarter performance was in line with plans. Our earnings improved significantly in Finland, and we strengthened our overall market position in the Baltic states as well as Belarus while the economic recession imposed a challenge through changed consumer demand," says Lasse Aho, Olvi plc's Managing Director.
SALES VOLUME, NET SALES AND EARNINGS
Olvi Group
Olvi Group's sales in the first quarter of 2009 amounted to 78 (73) million litres. This was 5 million litres more than in the previous year. OAO Lidskoe Pivo's sales in January-March amounted to 15 million litres, which enabled an increase in the Group's sales volume. First-quarter domestic sales declined by 9 million litres, and sales in the Baltic states declined by 4 million litres on the previous year. Intra-Group sales declined by 4 million litres.
The Group's net sales from January to March amounted to 47.1 (45.8) million euro. This was 1.3 million euro more than in the previous year. Net sales in Finland amounted to 19.6 (23.3) million euro and aggregate net sales in the Baltic states to 23.9 (25.8) million euro. First-quarter net sales in Finland declined by 3.8 million euro. Net sales in the Baltic states fell 2.0 million euro short of the previous year. First-quarter net sales in Belarus amounted to 5.6 million euro.
Olvi Group's operating profit for the first quarter stood at 2.4 (3.2) million euro, or 5.1 (6.9) percent of net sales. The operating profit declined by 0.8 million euro. In Finland, the parent company Olvi plc's operating profit improved by 0.8 million euro on the previous year, while operating profit in the Baltic states declined by 1.3 million euro. Units in the Baltic states posted an aggregate operating profit of 0.8 (2.1) million euro. OAO Lidskoe Pivo's operating result was -0.2 million euro.
Olvi Group's profit after taxes in the period under review was on a par with the previous year at 2.3 (2.3) million euro. Earnings per share calculated from the profit belonging to parent company shareholders in the first quarter of 2009 stood at 0.17 (0.22) euro per share.
Owing to the seasonal character of the brewing industry, the majority of the full-
year net sales and operating profit is made during the second and third quarters.
Parent company Olvi plc
The parent company Olvi plc's sales volume in January-March was 23 (32) million litres. Sales declined by 9 million litres on the previous year.
According to statistics by the Federation of the Brewing and Soft Drinks Industry, the Finnish beverage market diminished in January-March in all product groups except long drinks. The largest decreases in sales volume were seen in ciders and mineral waters.
Olvi plc's beer volumes declined by 39.4 percent in the first quarter because Olvi plc was not involved in any significant special offer campaigns for beer during these months. Aggregate volumes in other product groups were almost on a par with the previous year. The sales growth of Olvi plc's long drinks clearly outperformed the market average in the first quarter. The parent company's net sales from January to March amounted to 19.6 (23.3) million euro, representing a decline of 3.7 million euro on the previous year.
First-quarter operating profit improved significantly. Operating profit in January-March stood at 1.8 (1.0) million euro, which was 9.0 (4.2) percent of net sales. The operating profit increased by 0.8 million euro or 79.8 percent compared to the previous year. Factors contributing to the profitability improvement included increased average net sales price due to a reduction in beer campaigning, increased efficiency of production operations and a reduction in personnel costs.
AS A. Le Coq
The Estonian subsidiary AS A. Le Coq's first-quarter sales amounted to 23 (28) million litres. The sales volume declined by 5 million litres, most of which was intra-Group freighted work.
The beer sales volume remained on the previous year's level, but sales of mineral waters, well-being beverages and long drinks declined. The sales of ciders increased by 13.6 percent. In January-March, AS A. Le Coq's freighted work for other Group companies declined by 4 million litres on the previous year due to additional capacity acquired for subsidiaries in the other Baltic states.
During the first quarter, AS A. Le Coq became the largest beer manufacturer in Estonia with an approximate market share of 41.0 (37.5) percent. AS A. Le Coq was the market leader in terms of volume as well as value.
A. Le Coq Premium became the best-selling beer brand in Estonia in 2008. A. Le Coq took fourth place in a ranking of most valued corporate brands in Estonia, while male consumers ranked it at the very top. The consumer survey was carried out by TNS Emor.
The market share of AS A. Le Coq's ciders increased to 57.5 (48.6) percent, and the market share of its long drinks increased to 57.2 (55.4) percent.
AS A. Le Coq's net sales in January-March amounted to 13.1 (15.3) million euro, a decline of 2.2 million euro.
Operating profit in January-March stood at 1.4 (2.1) million euro, which was 11.0 (13.5) percent of net sales. The operating profit declined by 0.7 million euro compared to the previous year. Factors contributing to the weakened performance included a decline in volume as well as a decline in the proportional share of ciders and long drinks.
A/S Cesu Alus
The first-quarter 2009 sales of A/S Cesu Alus operating in Latvia were on a par
with the previous year at 12 (12) million litres.
The beer volume increased by 14.0 percent. Sales of ciders and long drinks declined clearly. Sales of soft drinks were on a par with the previous year. During the period, the market share of beer broke the 30-percent mark for the first time ever, rising to 31.0 percent. The market share of ciders was 46.0 (32.0) percent, and of long drinks 35 (26) percent.
AS Cesu Alus's net sales in January-March amounted to 5.9 (6.0) million euro, a decline of 0.1 million euro.
The operating result in January—March showed a loss at -0.4 (+0.1) million euro. The weakened result was affected by intense price competition in the Latvian market, due to which the average net sales price declined on the previous year, the share of least expensive beer products in proportion to total demand increased, and the share of the most profitable product groups, ciders and long drinks, declined.
AB Ragutis
In the first quarter, the sales volume of AB Ragutis operating in Lithuania improved to 10 (8) million litres. This was 2 million litres more than in the previous year. The sales increase was attributable to beer, the new product group kvass, as well as freighted work for other Group companies. Sales of ciders and long drinks declined. The market position improved in beers, ciders and long drinks. The market share of beers was 11.0 (10.0) percent, ciders 32.3 (29.0) and long drinks 22.1 (19.9) percent.
AB Ragutis's net sales from January to March amounted to 4.9 (4.5) million euro, representing an increase of 0.4 million euro.
AB Ragutis's operating result for the first quarter was -0.3 (-0.1) million euro, the difference of -0.2 million euro on the previous year being due to declined proportions of ciders and long drinks.
OAO Lidskoe Pivo
The January-March 2009 sales of OAO Lidskoe Pivo operating in Belarus amounted to 15 million litres. Sales of beer increased by 7.0 percent, kvass 180.0 percent, long drinks 8.0 percent and soft drinks 2.5 percent, while the sales of mineral waters increased by 24.0 percent.
The company's net sales were 5.6 million euro, and the January-March operating result was -0.2 million euro. The operating result was slightly negative due to devaluation of the Belarusian rouble, product development efforts and increased personnel costs.
However, OAO Lidskoe Pivo has investments denominated in United States dollars, which created foreign exchange gains. The company's profit before taxes was 1.7 million euro, and after-tax profit for the period was 1.2 million euro.
OAO Lidskoe Pivo's income statement has been consolidated with Olvi Group as of the beginning of 2009. The company's balance sheet was consolidated at the end of fiscal 2008.
Olvi Group's balance sheet total at the end of March 2009 was 242.1 (192.0) million euro. Equity per share in January-March was on a par with the previous year at 8.82 (8.83) euro. At 42.8 (47.7) percent, the equity ratio declined slightly on the previous year but remains at a healthy level. The amount of interest-bearing liabilities was 88.3 (49.4) million euro, including current liabilities of 42.7 (21.2) million euro.
During the period under review, Olvi Group's gross capital expenditure amounted to 4.6 (8.7) million euro. The parent company Olvi plc accounted for 1.4 million euro and the subsidiaries in the Baltic states for 2.6 million euro of the total. OAO Lidskoe Pivo's gross capital expenditure in the first quarter was 0.7 million euro. The largest investments in Finland in 2009 will include the extension and development of Olvi plc's pressure and fermentation tank cellar, while the Baltic states will see the acquisition of a bottle washing machine for AS A. Le Coq, an extension to the pressure tank cellar at A/S Cesu Alus, as well as additional cooling capacity at AB Ragutis and A/S Cesu Alus. This year's largest investments in Belarus will include extension of tank capacity to enable sales growth, as well as a product storage building.
The gross capital expenditure also includes purchases made on finance lease.
Research and development includes projects to design and develop new products, packages, processes and production methods, as well as further development of existing products and packages. The R&D costs have been recognised as expenses.
In addition to the new product launches of April 2009 described in the financial statement information, Olvi plc will introduce three juice drinks to the Finnish market in the beginning of May. Juice-making competence in Olvi Group is centralised with AS A. Le Coq in Estonia, which will produce the new high-quality Olvi Raikas juice drinks. Olvi Group is the largest producer of juices in Estonia, and its juice products have been ranked as the highest-quality Estonian food products. The products will be sold in one-litre reclosable TetraPak packaging.
In February, AS A. Le Coq extended its range of Arctic Sport beverages with a new product containing 10 percent apple juice. February also marked the introduction of preservative-free Aura Sweet Orange Nectar juice, as well as pear and cranberry juice concentrates under the Aura brand. Dynami:t, the second most selling energy drink in Estonia, was launched as a +10% Extra Energy version. To celebrate the 200-year-old A. Le Coq trademark, the A. Le Coq Special Red beer was introduced in March into the super premium segment. In March, AS A. Le Coq also started the production of kvass, which is a traditional home-style malt beverage. The product is made using the original method of fermentation from malt and rye. Kvass contains a maximum of 0.8 percent alcohol and is thus not considered an alcoholic beverage. The Aura Active Spritzer range was complemented by a new flavour, pear. The product contains 15 percent pure pear juice and mineral water. The Figuurisõbrad mineral waters are new alternatives for health-conscious consumers. A 1.5-litre bottle provides 45 percent of the daily calcium requirement.
In January, A/S Cesu Alus launched two mixed alcoholic beverages, Beershake Beer + Cola and Beershake Beer + Tequila&Lime. Cesu R.U.M.Z. Cola was introduced to the long drink segment. The existing Cesu Dzins long drink was complemented with a parallel product Cesu Dzons in the Safari, Mai Tai, Green Lime and Blue Ice flavours. The Estonian Special Red concept was also utilised in Latvia through the introduction of Cesu Special Red beer in April in a similar 0.5-litre transparent glass bottle. Dynami:t +10% Extra Energy and real kvass produced through fermentation were also launched in Latvia.
In April, AB Ragutis introduced a version of Beershake under the names b-shake Cola and b-shake Tequila Lemon. The product is similar to the Latvian one. Dynami:t Extra Energy was also introduced in April. The company's long drink brand Jamaica was expanded with the Kiwi-Lime flavour. In May, AB Ragutis will expand its Fortas brand of beers through the introduction of Fortas Sviesus 5% in cans. At the same time, Fortas Pilsner 4.7% will be introduced in 2-litre PET bottles. AB Ragutis sells kvass under the Smetoniska Gira brand.
Olvi Group's average number of personnel in January-March was 2,032 (1,234), 347 (423) of them in Finland, 340 (394) in Estonia, 214 (219) in Latvia, 194 (198) in Lithuania and 937 in Belarus. The Group's average number of personnel increased by 798 people or 64.7 percent. The number of personnel in Finland and the Baltic states declined by 139 people on the previous year. The total number of personnel at the end of March was 2,031 (1,257).
At the end of March 2009, Olvi Group's holding in AS A. Le Coq was 100 percent, in A/S Cesu Alus 98.2 percent, in AB Ragutis 99.57 percent, and in OAO Lidskoe Pivo 51.0 percent.
Olvi plc's Finnish subsidiary Olvin Juomaa Oy, which was held on a 100-percent basis, was considered unnecessary and dissolved at the end of 2008. The company did not engage in any business activities.
At their Annual General Meeting held on 7 April 2009, the shareholders of Olvi plc adopted the closing of the accounts for the year 2008 and granted discharge from liability to the members of the Board of Directors and Managing Director as regards the fiscal year 2008.
In accordance with the Board's proposal, the General Meeting of Shareholders decided that a dividend of 0.50 euro be paid on each K and A share for fiscal 2008. The dividend according to the decision represented 41.0 percent of consolidated earnings per share. The dividend payout totalled 5.2 million euro. The dividend was paid on 21 April 2009 to all shareholders recorded in the company's register of shareholders maintained by the Finnish Central Securities Depository Ltd on the record date 14 April 2009 at the latest. The payment of dividends will expire on 23 April 2012.
The Annual General Meeting re-elected the members of the Board who were in office in 2008: Mr. Heikki Hortling, Chairman of the Board, M.Sc. (Econ), Iisalmi, Mr. Esa Lager, CFO, LL.M., M.Sc. (Econ), Kauniainen, Mr. Lauri Ratia, Managing Director, M.Sc. (Eng), Helsinki, Mr. Heikki Sinnemaa, LL.M., Member of the Bar, Iisalmi, and Mr. Harri Sivula, Managing Director, M.Adm.Sc., Tuusula.

Ms. Silja Komulainen, Authorised Public Accountant, Sotkamo, was elected deputy auditor.
At its organising meeting held on 7 April 2009, Olvi plc's Board of Directors elected Mr. Heikki Hortling as the Chairman of the Board and Mr. Esa Lager as the Vice Chairman of the Board.
Decision regarding the acquisition of own A shares
In accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal, the Annual General Meeting decided to revoke all existing unused authorisations to acquire treasury shares and authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the acquisition of the company's own Series A shares using distributable funds. The authorisation is valid for one year starting from the Annual General Meeting and covers a maximum of 245,000 Series A shares. The Board of Directors may also decide that any shares acquired on the company's own account be cancelled by reducing the share capital.
The authorisation allows the Board of Directors to acquire the company's own shares for use as consideration in case of any upcoming corporate acquisitions, for the funding of investments, for the incentive and commitment scheme for key personnel or for cancellation.
Decision regarding the transfer of own shares
In accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal, the Annual General Meeting decided to revoke all existing unused authorisations for the transfer of own shares and authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the transfer of any A shares acquired on the company's own account within one year of the Annual General Meeting. The authorisation comprises the transfer of all shares purchased on the basis of acquisition authorisations granted to the Board of Directors.
The authorisation grants the Board of Directors with the power to decide to whom and in what order the shares held by the company shall be transferred. The Board of Directors could transfer the company's own shares for use as consideration in case of any upcoming corporate acquisitions, for the funding of investments or for use within an incentive and commitment scheme for key personnel. The Board of Directors is authorised to decide on the transfer price of the company's own shares and on the bases for determining the transfer price.
BUSINESS RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES IN THE NEAR TERM
The economic recession in the Baltic states has become even deeper, due to which construction and industrial investments have come to an almost complete stop. Unemployment has increased and caused a significant reduction in the amount of disposable consumer funds. The Finnish economy is also in a decline, which is reflected in consumer behaviour.
The markets of the brewing industry are declining in Finland as well as in the Baltic states. As the consumers' purchasing power is declining and inflation is going up, consumption will shift to less expensive products and product groups. Excise tax hikes may increase private imports from countries with lower excise rates, particularly from Estonia.
Olvi Group companies have good possibilities to retain their overall market position across the entire operating area. Substantial investments made in previous years will ensure sufficient capacity and cost-effective production of versatile product ranges and packaging alternatives. We estimate Olvi Group's operating profit to remain at the 2008 level or slightly improve in 2009.

Olvi plc's Board of Directors decided on 26 January 2006 on a share-based incentive scheme for Olvi Group's key personnel.
The share-based bonus scheme is a part of the incentive and commitment scheme for the Group's key personnel and its purpose is to combine the objectives of shareholders and key personnel to improve the company's value.
The scheme includes two vesting periods, the first one extending from 1 January 2006 to 31 December 2007 and the second one from 1 January 2008 to 31 December 2010. The amount of bonuses payable out of the scheme is linked to Olvi Group's net sales and the operating profit percentage in relation to net sales.
The bonuses are payable partially in Olvi plc's Series A shares and partially in cash. The proportion payable in cash covers the taxes and other statutory fees arising from the share-based bonuses. The bonuses for the first vesting period were paid in April 2008. The shares carry a ban on transferring them within two years of reception.
Any bonuses for the second vesting period will be paid in April 2011. 50 percent of the shares received as bonus for the second vesting period may be transferred after one year of reception, and 100 percent after two years of reception. The right to dividends begins when the shares are transferred to the key employees' book-entry accounts.
On the basis of this incentive scheme, a total of 48,000 Olvi plc Series A shares may become payable in 2011 for the second vesting period if the targets are achieved in full.
The target group of the scheme currently includes 21 key employees.
No accounting entries associated with the 2008-2010 vesting period were recognised in January-March 2009.
Olvi Group has no warrants or options.
On 10 April 2008, the General Meeting of Shareholders of Olvi plc decided to authorise the Board of Directors of Olvi plc to decide on the acquisition of the company's own shares using distributable funds. The authorisation is valid for one year starting from the General Meeting and covers a maximum of 245,000 Series A shares. From January to March 2009, the Board of Directors of Olvi plc has not exercised
the authorisation granted by the General Meeting to acquire more treasury shares.
Also, from January to March 2009, the Board of Directors has not exercised the authorisation granted by the General Meeting to transfer any treasury shares.
At the end of March 2009, Olvi plc held a total of 2,400 of its own Series A shares acquired for a price of 54 thousand euro. Treasury shares held by Olvi plc represent 0.02 percent of the share capital and 0.01 percent of the aggregate
number of votes. The treasury shares represent 0.03 percent of all Series A shares and associated votes.
