Q2 INTERIM REPORT JANUARY 1 – JUNE 30, 2011
Helsinki, August 5, 2011
Second quarter: Good performance in mixed market conditions
Second quarter 2011 in brief:
- Net sales increased 2% to EUR 200.6 million (Q2 2010: 195.9)
- At comparable currency rates, net sales increased 6 %
- Operating profit (EBIT) decreased 15% to EUR 19.0 million (22.2)
- Earnings per share were EUR 0.30 (0.35)
- Cash flow from operating activities was EUR 8.2 million (31.4), including a EUR 13 million negative impact related to withheld tax on dividend
- Outlook for 2011 unchanged: full-year net sales and operating profit excluding non-recurring items are expected to increase compared to 2010
Fiskars President and CEO, Kari Kauniskangas:
"Overall, Fiskars had a good quarter, with many businesses performing above market and increasing their sales. Across our portfolio and segments, however, performance varied from weak to strong. Even within business areas, consumer demand developed unevenly between different geographical segments. At Group level, the weaker US dollar affected Fiskars' consolidated net sales and operating profit. Profit was also negatively impacted by temporary production inefficiencies in EMEA, which were partly related to increased production volumes.
After a strong first-quarter sell-in, consumer demand has developed unevenly from month to month. Given the worries about the economic outlook, consumers are likely to continue weighing their spending decisions carefully. Increasing raw material prices pressure us to increase our sales prices towards the end of the year."

FISKARS' INTERIM REPORT, JANUARY - JUNE 2011
GROUP PERFORMANCE
Operating environment in Q2 2011
Consumer confidence weakened in Europe, as worries about financial instability and economic outlook increased during the quarter. Consumer demand developed unevenly from country to country and month to month, with some countries experiencing growth while in others consumer demand contracted even despite economic growth.
In North America, the recovery in retail trade was yet again delayed. Value-conscious consumers continue to dominate the marketplace and shoppers restrict their spending while waiting for the unemployment situation to turn around. Institutional spending remained curbed due to federal funding issues.
Overall, the predictability of the business environment weakened. Many positive signals seemed to be followed by a set back and the level of uncertainty increased.
Net sales and operating profit
In the second quarter of 2011 Fiskars' consolidated net sales increased by 2% to EUR 200.6 million (Q2 2010: EUR 195.9 million). Using comparable exchange rates, consolidated net sales increased by 6%. Higher sales were driven by the EMEA segment, where all businesses continued good development and especially Boats' sales performance was strong. Due to the weak US dollar, reported euro-nominated sales in the Americas decreased.
In the first half of the year, Fiskars' net sales increased by 7% to EUR 389.9 million (Q1-Q2 2010: EUR 365.9 million). Using comparable exchange rates, consolidated net sales increased by 8%.

Net sales in EMEA increased 8% to EUR 137.5 million (127.1), driven by continued good development in all businesses and especially strong sales performance in Boats. Using comparable currency rates, sales rose 8%.
The Home business area performed well during the quarter. Net sales for home products were higher than in the second quarter of 2010, with Finland and export markets as the main drivers.
Net sales in the Garden business increased, driven by stick tool and wood preparation sales. Investments in marketing and brand-building continued in selected countries during the quarter.
Outdoor sales continued well above 2010 levels, mainly due to continued strong performance in the Boat business.
The segment recorded an operating profit of EUR 9.3 million (14.8). Temporary production inefficiencies caused by increased volumes, recent investments in production capacity, and reorganization of production, as well as higher investments in marketing, contributed to the reduction in operating profit.

Net sales in the Americas decreased by 8% to EUR 65.4 million (71.0) due to the weaker US dollar and poor weather impacting Garden sales. Using comparable currency rates, sales increased by 3%.
Garden net sales decreased during the quarter. Unusual weather conditions led to an exceptionally short selling season, which heavily affected the category sell-out. Nevertheless, within the garden category Fiskars' relative performance was good.
Net sales for school, office, and craft products (SOC) grew, as back-to-school sell-in started well.
The Outdoor business area continued to perform clearly above 2010 levels, with successful product launches boosting the overall category in the commercial segment. Institutional sales remained behind 2010 levels.
The segment's operating profit was EUR 11.7 million (11.3), as strong sales and a favorable product mix in the Outdoor and SOC businesses offset soft Garden sales.

Risks and business uncertainties
Fiskars Corporation has detailed its overall business risks and risk management in its Annual Report for 2010, the company web site, and in its Interim Report for January – March 2011. The company does not consider any material changes to have taken place during the reporting period in the risks and market uncertainties presented in the Annual Report for 2010.
Events after the review period
On July 8, 2011, Fiskars wholly owned subsidiary Avlis AB sold the shares of its subsidiary Silva Sweden AB to the Swedish investment company, Karnell. Silva has been a part of Fiskars' Outdoor business area. The net sales of the Silva business amounted to EUR 15 million in 2010 and the company employs some 220 people.
As a result of the sale of Silva, Fiskars will record a non-recurring operating loss of approximately EUR 6 million in its third-quarter results. The sale has a positive impact on cash flow from investment activities of approx. EUR 6 million. The Silva business is geared towards the end of the year, and the sale will reduce Fiskars' net sales during the second half of 2011 by around EUR 12 million and operating profit around EUR 1 million.
Fiskars aims at global growth by continuously simplifying its structures and increasing its focus on selected businesses and brands. By selling the Silva business, Fiskars will be able to focus resources towards growing its key international brands – Fiskars, Iittala, and in the outdoor business, Gerber – more effectively by widening their distribution networks in key target markets and new channels.
Outlook for 2011
In the beginning of the year, Fiskars expected the general market situation to remain positive in 2011. Since then, uneasiness about the economic outlook has increased. We expect the trade to continue focusing on working capital, and retailer purchasing to remain cautious.
Fiskars will continue investing in brand-building and new product development. In addition, Fiskars has begun implementing a significant five-year investment program in EMEA, which will increase Fiskars' operating expenses and capital expenditure during the coming years.
Fiskars expects its full-year net sales and operating profit excluding non-recurring items to increase compared to 2010.
Associated company Wärtsilä will continue to have a major impact on Fiskars' profit and cash flow in 2011.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
This interim financial statement bulletin is prepared in accordance with IAS 34 (Interim Financial Reporting) using the same accounting policies and methods of computation as in the previous annual financial statements. The interim financial statements are unaudited. All figures in the accounts have been rounded and consequently the sum of individual figures can deviate from the presented sum figure.
The Group has implemented new or amended IAS/IFRS standards and interpretations mandatory as of January 1, 2011. Of these the most important are:
-
Annual improvements to IFRS
-
Revised IAS 24 Related party disclosures
The adoption of the standards above had no impact on the reported results or financial position.
Use of estimates:
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the valuation of the reported assets and liabilities and other information, such as contingent liabilities and the recognition of income and expenses in the income statement. Although the estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may differ from the estimates.

EXCHANGE RATE SENSITIVITY OF THE OPERATIONS
Approximately 10% of Fiskars' commerial cash flows are exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The most significant risks relate to the depreciation of GBP, SEK and CAD against USD and EUR. Foreign exchange risks are hedged primarily through the use of currency forwards and swaps. Change in valuation of currency derivatives is included in the income statement without applying hedge accounting.

Fiskars will record a non-recurring sales loss of EUR 5.5 million in the third quarter results and EUR 1 million positive effect in the income taxes for the period. The disposed cash assets were EUR 0.1 million, intangible and tangible asset EUR 4.5 million and net working capital EUR 6.0 million.
