CEO Jukka Moisio: "Huhtamaki had a financially strong year even if sales volumes declined due to soft market sentiment and demand. Our performance in profitability was good with a clear improvement in earnings from the previous year. We reduced our net debt by a third and achieved a significant improvement in ROI (return on investment). Cost control and cash generation as well as price and product mix management were key priorities throughout the year.
The financial foundation for further developing our business strongholds has been laid. Huhtamaki's stronghold business segments performed well in 2009 and the strategic review of the Rigid Consumer Goods Plastics operations proceeded according to our expectations. Industrial performance was improved, benefiting both Huhtamaki and our customers. Huhtamaki is in a good position to start the year 2010."
Overview
The year was characterized by customer cautiousness and uncertainty. Demand remained sluggish throughout the year. At EUR 2,038 million (EUR 2,260 million in 2008), the Group net sales declined due to lower volumes, divestments and discontinued operations. In addition, currency translations had a minor adverse effect on the euro-denominated value of net sales.
Despite the decline in net sales, profitability improved markedly. The full year Group EBIT, excluding non-recurring charges, was higher than the previous year. In the first half of the year North America and Rigid Consumer Goods Plastics ("Consumer Goods") segments improved earnings strongly, while towards the year end Flexibles Global ("Flexibles") and Rough Molded Fiber Global ("Molded Fiber") segments showed progress compared to the previous year. Foodservice Europe-Asia-Oceania ("Foodservice") segment also improved earnings but Films Global ("Films") segment suffered from low demand and reported reduced earnings compared to the previous year. Most of the business segments were able to maintain sound margins, and successful cost reductions added to earnings growth. These positive factors more than compensated for the decrease of volumes which was experienced in most business segments.
Cash flow generation was strong throughout 2009, supported by improved working capital efficiency and low capital expenditure. All segments achieved good results in cash generation. This contributed to a considerable reduction of net debt, which advanced the accomplishment of the Group's key financial targets.
Business review by segment
The sales distribution in 2009 was following: Flexibles Global 22% (21%), Films Global 7% (9%), North America 25% (23%), Rough Molded Fiber Global 10% (9%), Foodservice Europe-Asia-Oceania 22% (21%) and Rigid Consumer Goods Plastics 14% (17%).

* EBIT includes non-recurring charges of EUR 17.9 million in Q4 2008 and Q1-Q4 2008.
The segment's net sales declined during the year, remaining soft also in the fourth quarter. While sales volumes were stable in comparison to prior year, price reductions applied as a result of lower raw material costs had a negative impact on the net sales. The discontinued operations in Malvern, USA, also had a decreasing effect on net sales.
Despite lower net sales, the segment's earnings growth accelerated towards year end. EBIT reflects successful cost containment, better operational control and the elimination of Malvern losses. The segment made a very good operating cash flow on the fourth quarter, which accumulated to a strong full year operating cash flow.
During the year, a production unit in Thane, India was reconstructed and a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system was implemented at all four sites in India.
Films Global
Films business is organized as a global segment. Films are mainly used for technical applications in the label, adhesive tape, hygiene and health care industries, as well as building and construction, automotive, packaging and graphic arts industries.
EUR million | Q1-Q4 2009 | Q1-Q4 2008 | Q4 2009 | Q4 2008 |

* EBIT includes non-recurring charges of EUR 3.8 million Q1-Q4 2009.
Films segment suffered from low customer demand, particularly in industrial applications. Volume shortfall was obvious throughout the year and also some price reductions were made. There was, however, some recovery of orders towards the end of the year.
The segment's negative volume development was reflected in its earnings decline. EBIT includes a EUR 4 million non-recurring charge related to the divestment of the release paper business and the resulting restructuring of operations in Forchheim, Germany.
All manufacturing of the divested release paper business in Forchheim is scheduled to be finalized and transferred to the buyer, B. Laufenberg GmbH, by the end of the first quarter of 2010.
North America
The segment includes the Rigid and Molded Fiber business in North America and Mexico. Rigid paper and plastic packaging, which serves ice-cream and other consumer goods as well as foodservice markets, is completed with Molded Fiber Chinet® disposable tableware products.

RONA % (12m roll.) | 14.8 | 8.9 | - | - |
* EBIT includes non-recurring charges of EUR 5.2 million in Q4 2008 and Q1-Q4 2008.
The segment's sales growth was strong in the first half of the year but, together with volumes, slowed down towards the end of the year. The slowdown in sales was attributable to soft market conditions, as well as the refocus and downscaling of the plastics operations with the closure of the site in Phoenix, USA. While the full year currency translation impact was positive, the impact turned unfavorable towards the year end. Retail sales grew due to new products and strong marketing efforts while foodservice sales suffered from soft market conditions and the restructuring of the plastics operations. In Frozen desserts business, market positions were strengthened and sales grew slightly.
North America segment's EBIT was supported by the strong market positions in North America. The growth in EBIT was attained by careful cost containment, successful margin management and improved product mix. Unfavorable currency translation, volume softness and high marketing expenditure related to Chinet® brand re-launch slowed down earnings generation in the fourth quarter of the year.
Rough Molded Fiber Global
The segment includes the Rough Molded Fiber business in Europe, Oceania, Africa and South America. Rough molded fiber is used to make fresh product packaging, such as egg and fruit packaging.
EUR million | Q1-Q4 2009 | Q1-Q4 2008 | Q4 2009 | Q4 2008 |

RONA % (12m roll.) | 10.5 | 4.8 | - | - |
* EBIT includes non-recurring charges of EUR 3.7 million in Q4 2008 and Q1-Q4 2008.
The segment's net sales decreased from previous year due to low sales in the machine and waste paper trading operations as well as an adverse impact from currency translations. Molded fiber packaging sales were up in all geographic regions and growth accelerated in the fourth quarter. In particular, egg packaging demand was robust and the Group strengthened its market positions.
Molded Fiber segment's earnings growth reflects good cost containment and efficient operations. Towards the year end, positive volumes contributed to improved profitability.
Foodservice Europe-Asia-Oceania
Foodservice paper and plastic disposable tableware is supplied to foodservice operators and fast food restaurants.

* EBIT includes non-recurring charges of EUR 14.5 million in Q4 2008 and Q1-Q4 2008.
Foodservice segment's volumes decreased. The decline in net sales reflects market softness and an adverse impact from currency translations. Most of the European markets were soft. Sales in Oceania, instead, showed moderate but steady growth. No clear change of these trends was seen in the fourth quarter.
The segment's EBIT was supported by growth in Oceania, improved operational control in Asia as well as good overall cost containment.
In Europe and in Australia legal and operational segregation of Consumer Goods business was completed successfully, with no impact on customer service level throughout the process.
Rigid Consumer Goods Plastics
The segment includes the Rigid Consumer Goods Plastics business in Europe and Oceania. Rigid plastic packaging serves the consumer goods markets with fresh food, dairy, ice cream and edible fats packaging.

The segment's net sales were reduced due to divestments, adverse currency translations and lower volumes. While sales increased in Eastern Europe and in Australia, sales in other markets declined.
Consumer Goods segment's EBIT includes EUR 10 million of non-recurring charges (EUR 124 million of non-recurring charges) related to execution of the strategic review of the segment. In detail, the sale of the Consumer Goods units in Australia and South America resulted to a book loss of
EUR 7 million. The segregation and ongoing strategic review of Consumer Goods operations in Europe resulted in a non-recurring charge of EUR 3 million. The improvement in earnings is due to significant cost reduction and efficient operational control.
The divestment of the remaining Consumer Goods business in Australia was finalized in the fourth quarter of the year. The business was sold to Alto Manufacturing Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of Pact Group Pty Ltd. With three manufacturing units in Bankstown, Mulgrave and Wacol and some 330 employees, the annual net sales of the divested business were approximately EUR 50 million. The agreed value for the transaction was EUR 33 million. Following the divestments of the Consumer Goods business in South America and the EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) packaging business in Australia on the second quarter of 2009, the segment now has operations in Europe only. The strategic review of the European operations is ongoing.
Financial review
The Group EBIT in 2009 was EUR 119 million (EUR -75 million), corresponding to an EBIT-margin of 5.8% (-3.3%). In the fourth quarter, the Group EBIT was EUR 6.5 million, (EUR -147.7 million), corresponding to an EBIT margin of 1.4% (-14.1%).

Altogether, non-recurring charges in 2009 amounted to EUR 14 million (EUR 166 million). The Group EBIT in 2009 excluding non-recurring charges amounts to EUR 133 million (EUR 91 million), corresponding to an EBIT-margin of 6.5% (4.0%). In the fourth quarter, the Group EBIT excluding non-recurring items was EUR 17 million (EUR 11 million), corresponding to an EBIT-margin of 3.5% (2.0%).

The 2009 result was EUR 74 million (EUR -110 million) and the earnings per share (EPS) were EUR 0.63 (EUR -1.12). Correspondingly, in the fourth quarter the result was EUR 0 million (EUR -143 million) and the EPS were EUR -0.02 (EUR -1.43).The average number of outstanding shares used in the EPS calculations was 100,539,283 (100,426,461) excluding 5,061,089 (unchanged) of the Company's own shares.
Balance sheet and cash flow
Free cash flow in 2009 amounted to EUR 208 million (EUR 104 million), and in the fourth quarter to EUR 40 million (EUR 37 million). The strong improvement was due to efficient working capital management and a low level of capital expenditure. Capital expenditure in 2009 was EUR 53 million (EUR 74 million). In the fourth quarter, capital expenditure totaled EUR 21 million (EUR 27 million).
Net debt was EUR 368 million (EUR 587 million) at the end of December 2009. This corresponds to a gearing ratio of 0.50 (0.84). Debt reduction was achieved through strong cash flow and proceeds from divestments.
Total assets on the balance sheet were EUR 1,759 million (EUR 1,952 million).
Strategic direction
In 2009, the Group continued to develop its strongholds and review the Consumer Goods operations. The commitment to deliver a strong positive cash flow materialized and the Group's financial position was strengthened. Industrial performance was upgraded through continuous improvement projects.
The Group's focus remained on its five business segments with the most favorable preconditions to further improve the results and market shares. North America and Molded Fiber business segments were supported by investments in growth and operational excellence. Films business segment divested the release paper production and focused solely on release films. Flexibles and Foodservice business segments continued to develop a solid base for growth. Consumer Goods business was segregated from Foodservice in order to facilitate the strategic review.
The review of different strategic alternatives for the Consumer Goods operations proceeded. During 2009, units were divested in South America, Australia and South Africa. The review of the remaining operations in Europe continues.
The Group's key financial targets, return on investment (ROI) at 15% and dividend payout ratio of 40%, remain unchanged. Maintaining a solid financial base and further developing all five strongholds continue to be a priority.
Personnel
The Group had 12,900 (14,644) employees at the end of December 2009. The number of employees by segment was the following: Flexibles 3,643 (3,603), Films 775 (926), North America 2,643 (2,731), Molded Fiber 1,581 (1,613), Foodservice 2,849 (3,663), Consumer Goods 1,355 (2,051), and other 54 (57). The average number of employees was 13,735 (15,044).
Huhtamäki Oyj employed 48 (52) people at year-end. The annual average was 49 (723). The decrease in the annual average is due to the segregation of the Foodservice and Consumer Goods businesses from the parent company into its wholly owned subsidiaries in 2008.
Resolutions of Huhtamäki Oyj's Annual General Meeting
Huhtamäki Oyj's Annual General Meeting of Shareholders was held in Helsinki on April 3, 2009.

NOTES FOR THE RESULT REPORT
Except for accounting policy changes listed below, the same accounting policies have been applied in the interim financial statements as in annual financial statements for 2008.
Changes in accounting principles
The Group has adopted the following IFRS standards and interpretations considered applicable to Huhtamaki, with effect from January 1, 2009:
- IAS 23 Borrowing cost. The amendment requires capitalization of borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset as part of the cost of asset.
- IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements -amendment. Amended standard has changed the presentation of income statement and statement of changes in shareholders' equity.
- IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes. The interpretation addresses the accounting by entities that operate customer loyalty programmes with their customers.
These newly adopted standards have not had impact on the reported results.
Segments
Segment information is presented according to the IFRS standards. Items below EBIT - financial items and taxes - are not allocated to the segments.
