Componenta to start statutory negotiations at Componenta Finland Nisamo concerning possible closure of the business unit

Componenta to start statutory negotiations at Componenta Finland Nisamo concerning possible closure of the business unit

Componenta Corporation Stock Exchange Release 18.10.2011 at 9.00

Componenta is starting statutory negotiations, as stipulated in the Finnish Act
on Cooperation in Undertakings, in Componenta Finland Ltd. Nisamo on 18 October
2011. Componenta is planning to terminate operations of the business unit.
Profitablity of the machine shop located in Lempäälä, Finland has been weak for
a long period of time and its cash flow is negative. In addition, the business
unit's order book and future outlook are weak. Negative development of
production volumes has mainly been caused by changes in wind power customer
segment.

The statutory negotiations cover the Nisamo machine shop personnel in total of
34 people. Actions based on negotiations will be realized during the second
quarter of 2012 at the latest.

One-time costs of possible terminating of operations are expected to be EUR 2.8
million.

To achieve its strategic goals of growing together with customers and being the
preferred casting solutions provider for its customers, Componenta has to have
competitive, profitable operations with a corporate structure that supports
them.
