Financial results, 9 months 2016
THE 3rd QUARTER AND NINE MONTHS IN SHORT
Consolidated net sales of the 9M of 2016 were 13.6 mil. euros, representing an
6,4% decrease compared to the same period in 2015 (14.6 mil. euros in 9M 2015).
Consolidated EBITDA amounted to 207 thousand euros (EBITDA 811 thousand euros
in 9M 2015). Reducing the stock volumes of own produced goods negatively
influenced the EBITDA of 9M 2016 through changes in inventories in the amount
of 576 thousand euros (In 9M 2015 the increase in stock had a positive effect
to EBITDA in the amount of 354 thousand euros).
The turnover of Skano Fibreboard OÜ for 9M 2016 was 9.1 mil. euros (9M 2015 9.5
mil. euros), out of which Pärnu factory (including Isotex) sales was 5.3 mi.

profit 315 thousand euros). The operating profit from Pärnu factory was 55
thousand euros (9M 2015 423 thousand euros) and Püssi factory has made an
operating loss in the amount of 159 thousand euros (9M 2015 operating loss 108
thousand euros).
Sales mainly decreased in our core markets. As our main foreign markets Russia
and Finland are still very weak due to the general economic situation we have
been continuously expanding the list of our target markets and made significant
efforts in product development.
Sales of Suomen Tuulielijona OY in 9M 2016 decreased 13% compared to last year,
which amounted to 3.7 mil. euros (4.3 mil euros in 9M 2015). Suomen
Tuulileijona OY is the wholesaler of Skano fibreboard products in Finland.
The turnover of Skano Furniture Factory OÜ decreased in 9M 2016 by 12.2% and
amounted to 3.2 mil. euros (9M 2015 3.6 mil. euros). The operating loss in 9M
2016 was 325 thousand euros and in 9M 2015 the operating loss was 235 thousand
euros. The operating loss was affected by lower sales and decrease of inventory
through changes in inventory of finished goods. In 9M 2016 sales to Finland
decreased by 14.7% due to very weak demand as compared to the same period in
2015. In addition to seeking new sales possibilities in the current markets the
company has made considerable effort to enter into new markets and to lower the
production costs.
The priority of the management of the company is continuously to ensure the
sales quantity of the produced goods from both factories in order to maximize
production efficiency and efforts are taken in this direction on an on-going
basis.
The turnover of Skano Furniture OÜ retail chain decreased 14.8% as compared to
the same period last year and amounted to 1.6 mil. euros (9M 2015 1.9 mil.
euros). Retail sales decreased in all markets. The sales of Skano Furniture

FORECAST AND DEVELOPMENT
SKANO FIBREBOARD. Skano Fibreboard sales in 4Q 2016 will be similar compared to
sales of the same period last year. Sales in our core markets are lower due to
weak demand which we expect to compensate with sales in new markets. On the
other hand we see already better results in efficiency even with lower
production volumes compared to last year as a result of the recent production
improvement plan. Also the cost control gives better results.
In July 2016 we received Sintef Certification, which has no opened the doors to
sell our wind barrier boards on the Norwegian market.
SKANO FURNITURE FACTORY. In 4Q 2016 the sales of the furniture factory will
show a small decrease compare to 4Q 2015. The management is concentrating on
cost savings what will give the positive start to the next year.
SKANO FURNITURE RETAIL SALES. We expect steady sales in the Baltics. Ukraine
results are affected by the political and economic instability.
