Additional information regarding the Key Performance Indicators is available on www.elisa.com/investors: Elisa Operational Data Q3 2011.xls.
Elisa's earnings grew strongly during the third quarter of 2011, and the company's revenue developed favorably. Despite tough competition, the demand for Elisa's services remained high.
Our mobile subscription base grew by more than 100,000 during the third quarter of the year, and we have reached the milestone of four million subscriptions. Elisa Viihde IPTV's strong development has continued and the number of customers has exceeded 100,000. Boosted by new services and service bundles, the number of fixed network broadband subscriptions increased by nearly 8,000.
The demand for mobile data services continued to grow rapidly, spurred by the high number of dongle and smartphone users. Customers are also increasingly choosing a monthly data plan so they don't have to worry about the volume of data transfer. In addition, business use of smartphones is on the rise.
Elisa introduced the My Invoice (Oma Lasku) service for businesses. The service enables employees to pay for personal purchases and mobile services through their business subscriptions. Personal purchases are invoiced separately through Elisa My Invoice, which can help companies save hundreds of thousands of euros per year by not paying for services unrelated to business. At the same time, the opportunity to use business phones for personal matters increases employee satisfaction.
For consumers, Elisa introduced new features and fascinating content through Elisa Viihde, the most innovative IPTV entertainment platform, and the Elisa Kirja e-book service. Elisa Viihde was complemented with a karaoke service that offers a broad selection of Finnish and foreign songs. Finnish comic strips were also made available on smartphones and tablets for the first time through Elisa Kirja.
In Finland's 'Best of the Year 2011' customer service competition, Elisa's Consumer Customers unit was awarded the Best Practices honorary mention for investing in continuous development, making full use of customer feedback and providing support for customer service personnel. Concrete measures, such as real-time order monitoring and user-friendly technical support websites, have considerably improved customer service.
We will continue our determined work to further improve productivity and customer satisfaction. Elisa creates services that improve productivity and provide enhanced user experiences. Combined with our strong investment capability, this creates a solid foundation for the future."

The Interim report has been prepared in accordance with the IFRS recognition and measurement principles. The information presented in this interim report is unaudited.
The competitive environment has been intense but stable in Finland. The mobile subscription base and the use of data services continued to evolve favourably. The mobile smartphone market is growing rapidly. With a broader assortment now available, approximately two thirds of the mobile handsets sold are smartphones. This further increases the use of mobile data services. Other factors contributing to the growth have been the use of multiple terminal devices for different purposes and mobile broadband services.
The number and usage of traditional fixed network subscriptions decreased at the same pace as in the previous quarters. The number of fixed broadband subscriptions increased mainly due to growth in new services.
| EUR million | 7-9/2011 | 7-9/2010 | 1-9/2011 | 1-9/2010 |

| EBIT-% | 21.7 | 20.2 | 19.1 | 18.4 |
Revenue increased by 4 per cent on the previous year. Revenue growth was driven by increased equipment sales, growth in Estonia and mobile services as a result of an increased number of subscriptions. Consumer Customers' online services, e.g. Elisa Viihde IPTV service also contributed positively to revenue growth. The decrease in usage and subscriptions of traditional fixed telecom services in both segments affected revenue negatively, as did the decrease in mobile termination rates.
EBITDA increased by 6 per cent on the previous year. EBITDA growth was mainly due to growth in revenue, cost efficiency measures and somewhat lower service development and sales expenses. The EBITDA margin was negatively affected by the increase in low margin equipment sales.
Financial income and expenses totalled EUR -8 million (-5). The previous year's financial expenses decreased due to a foreign exchange rate change related to a USD provision of CDO guarantee. Income taxes in the income statement amounted to EUR -18 million (-17). Elisa's earnings after taxes were EUR 56 million (51). The Group's earnings per share (EPS) amounted to EUR 0.36 (0.32).
Revenue increased by 5 per cent on last year mainly attributable to the same reasons as in the third quarter.
EBITDA improved by 3 per cent on the previous year mainly due to growth in revenue and cost efficiency measures.
Financial income and expenses totalled EUR -23 million (-69). Income taxes in the income statement amounted to EUR -49 million (-32). Elisa's earnings after taxes were EUR 145 million (99). The Group's earnings per share (EPS) amounted to EUR 0.93 (0.63). The previous year's financial income and expenses, income taxes, earnings after taxes and EPS were affected by the CDO guarantee provision.

July–September cash flow after investments was EUR 56 million (29). The change was mainly due to changes in net working capital and improved EBITDA.
Elisa's cash flow after investments was EUR 142 million (144). The change in net working capital affected cash flow negatively, while the increase in EBITDA and lower tax payments has a positive cash flow effect.
On 13 July 2011, the draft terms of the merger of Elisa Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary Saunalahti Group Oyj were registered. Following the procedure pursuant to the Finnish Companies Act, Elisa's Board of Directors can make a decision regarding the merger. The estimated time of the merger is 31 December 2011.

Consumer Customer business revenue increased by 4 per cent. Revenue growth was driven by increased equipment sales, growth in Estonia and mobile services as a result of an increased number of subscriptions. The growth trend in online services continued. The decrease in fixed network usage and subscriptions, and lower mobile termination rates negatively affected revenue. EBITDA increased by 5 per cent mainly due to revenue growth, cost efficiency measures and somewhat lower service development and sales expenses. The EBITDA margin was negatively impacted by growth in low margin equipment sales.
Revenue increased by 4 per cent. The growth in revenue was mainly attributable to the same reasons as in the third quarter. EBITDA increased by 1 per cent due to revenue growth. The EBITDA margin was also negatively impacted by growth in low margin equipment sales.

Corporate Customers business revenue increased 4 per cent. Revenue increased as a result of the growth in ICT services due in part to the previous year's acquisitions, and equipment sales. The decline in usage and subscriptions in traditional fixed telecom services and lower mobile termination rates decreased revenue. EBITDA increased by 8 per cent. The increase in EBITDA was attributable mainly to the revenue growth and cost efficiency measures.
Revenue increased by 5 per cent and EBITDA by 7 per cent, again due mainly to the same reasons presented in the third quarter.

From 1 June 2011 to 13 October 2011, a total of 1,350 new Elisa shares have been subscribed with 2007B option rights. These shares will be registered in the trade register on 24 October 2011 and trading of the new shares will begin on 25 October 2011 in NASDAQ OMX Helsinki. The shares are entitled to dividends and have the same shareholder rights as the old shares.
For more information, see Elisa's Annual report 2010 pages 44-45 and Stock exchange release of 18 December 2007.
The Annual General Meeting accepted the proposal of the Board of Directors to resolve to distribute funds from the unrestricted equity to a maximum amount of EUR 70 million. On 21 October 2011, the Board of Directors decided to distribute approximately EUR 62 million as dividends (see more in "Events after the financial period"). The authorisation is effective until the beginning of the following Annual General Meeting.
The Annual General Meeting decided on the authorisation to repurchase or accept as pledge the company's own shares. The repurchase may be directed. The amount of shares under this authorisation is 5 million shares at maximum. The authorisation is effective until 30 June 2012.
The Annual General Meeting of 2010 approved the proposal of the Board of Directors on the issuance of shares as well as the issuance of special rights entitled to shares. The issue may be directed. The authorisation is effective until 30 June 2014. A maximum aggregate of 15 million of the company's shares can be issued under the authorisation.
There were no significant legal or regulatory issues during the third quarter of 2011.
Risk management is part of Elisa's internal control system. It aims to ensure that risks affecting the company's business are identified, influenced and monitored. The company classifies risks into strategic, operational, accidental and financial risks.
The telecommunications industry is under intense competition in Elisa's main market areas, which may have an impact on Elisa's business. The telecommunications industry is subject to heavy regulation. Elisa and its businesses are monitored and regulated by several public authorities. This regulation also affects the price level of some products and services offered by Elisa.
The rapid developments in telecommunications technology may have a significant impact on Elisa's business.
Elisa's main market is Finland, where the number of mobile phones per inhabitant is among the highest in the world, and growth in subscriptions is thus limited. Furthermore, the volume of phone traffic in Elisa's fixed network has decreased in the past few years. These factors may limit the opportunities for growth.
The company's core operations are covered by insurance against damage and interruptions caused by accidents. Accident risks also include litigations and claims.
In order to manage interest rate risk, the Group's loans and investments are diversified in fixedand variable-rate instruments. Interest rate swaps can be used to manage interest rate risk.
As most of Elisa's operations and cash flow are denominated in Euros, the exchange rate risk is minor.
The objective of liquidity risk management is to ensure the Group's financing in all circumstances. Elisa has cash reserves, committed credit facilities and a sustainable cash flow to cover its foreseeable financing needs.
Liquid assets are invested within confirmed limits to investment targets with a good credit rating. Credit risk concentrations in accounts receivable are minor as the customer base is wide.
A detailed description of the financial risk management can be found in note 34 of the Annual Report 2010.
On 21 October 2011, Elisa's Board of Directors decided to pay an extraordinary dividend of EUR 0.40 per share. The extraordinary distribution totals approximately EUR 62 million. No dividend will be paid on treasury shares held by Elisa. The ex-date is 24 October 2011, the record date 26 October 2011, and payment will begin on 2 November 2011.
The budget deficits and solvency issues in several European countries have impacted the Finnish economy to some extent. Even though the Finnish economy is among the most stable in Europe, there are still risks inherent to the general economic development. Competition in the Finnish telecommunications market also remains challenging.
Full year revenue is estimated to increase slightly from the previous year. The use of mobile communications, especially mobile broadband services and equipment sales, is continuing to rise. In addition, ICT and new online services' revenue will grow. Full year EBITDA, excluding nonrecurring items, is expected to improve slightly from the last year. Full-year capital expenditure is expected to be maximum 12 per cent of revenue.
In addition to its strong position as a network service provider, Elisa is transforming itself to be able to provide its customers with exciting and relevant new services. Among the factors contributing to long-term growth and profitability improvement is 3G market growth, as well as new online and ICT services. Elisa continues determinedly to employ its efficiency measures. Elisa's financial position and liquidity are good.

1.1. - 30.9.2011 Unaudited
The interim report has been prepared in accordance with the IFRS recognition and measurement principles, although all requirements of IAS 34 standard have not been followed. The information has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) effective at the time of preparation and adopted for use by European Union. Apart from the changes in accounting principles stated below, the accounting principles applied in the interim report are the same as in the financial statements at 31 December 2010.
The Group adopted the following standards, amendments to standards and interpretations as from 1 January 2011 onward: - Amended IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures. Amendments to definitions and requirements concerning notes.
Revised IAS 32 Financial instruments: Presentation. The amendments concern the accounting of issues of shares, options or subscription rights denominated in a currency other than the issuer's operating currency. A derivative associated with the party's equity is an equity instrument if it entitles to receive a fixed number of shares in the company for a fixed amount of currency or other financial receivable. Previously, such subscription rights were classified as derivative liabilities in accounting.
Revised IFRIC 14 IAS 19 - The Limit of a Defined Benefit Asset, Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction. After the amendments, advance contributions to a defined benefit plan can, in certain cases, be recognised as assets on the balance sheet.
IFRIC 19 Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments. A debtor and creditor may renegotiate the terms of a financial liability with the result that the liability is fully or partially extinguished by the debtor issuing equity instruments to the creditor; the debt is swapped for equity. Such equity instruments are "consideration paid," and the difference between the financial liability (or part thereof) and the original valuation price of the granted equity instruments is recognised through profit or loss.
