HARRI SUUTARI, PRESIDENT AND CEO:
'The manufacture of commercial vehicles, tractors and industrial equipment
continued to grow in our key market areas in Europe and Brazil. The production
of recreation vehicles also continued to grow in Europe and North America.
PKC's Wiring Harnesses business continued to grow, by about 15% over the
previous quarter. Our customers' volume of orders received during the second
quarter for trucks remained at the same level as deliveries. The profitability
of the Wiring Harnesses business fell in comparison with the previous quarter
as a result of an increase in material and manufacturing costs and a drop in
some product sales prices. Production transfers to lower cost factories will be
continued according to plan.
Deliveries in the Electronics business remained at the level of the previous
quarter. Deliveries from Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) continued to
grow, but deliveries from Original Design Manufacturing (ODM) fell during the
first half of the year. As a result of weakened profitability, special measures
to improve profitability will be targeted at the Electronics business.
In line with our strategy, our aim is not only organic growth but also through
acquisitions.'
OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
Wiring Harness business
European heavy-duty trucks' markets strengthened during the report period.
During the first half of the year, the registrations of heavy-duty trucks
increased in Europe (the EU countries, Switzerland and Norway) by 56% over the
comparison period. All in all, about 120,000 heavy trucks were registered
during the first half of the year. During the second quarter, a total of almost
62,000 new heavy-duty trucks were registered. During the second quarter, the
number of vehicle orders received by our customers was at about the same level
as the number of vehicles delivered to their customers. Deliveries for the full
year are forecast to increase to 230,000 - 250,000 vehicles.
In Brazil during the first half of the year, our key customers' heavy truck
deliveries increased by 20% over the comparison period. The vehicle orders
received by our customers were 16% less than volume of customer deliveries
during the second quarter, which indicates a turn in growth. The changes in
emissions regulations scheduled to enter into force at the end of this year are
expected to increase production towards the end of the year. In 2010, about
110,000 heavy-duty trucks were registered in Brazil. The industry expects
registrations over the full year to increase by about 10% over the previous
year.
Deliveries for heavy-duty trucks in North America increased during the first
half of the year by approximately 45% compared to the comparison period
totalling approximately 93,000 vehicles. Truck manufacturers combined orderbook
was about 125,000 heavy duty trucks at the end of June. Deliveries for the full
year are forecast to be 180,000-250,000 vehicles.
PKC's delivery volumes for recreation vehicle wiring harnesses increased in the
first half of the year in North America by 30% over the corresponding period
the previous year.
Sales of agricultural tractors in Europe increased during the first half of the
year by 14% over the comparison period the previous year. Full year sales are
forecast to grow by 15%.
Sales of construction equipment increased during the first half of the year by
44% in Europe and by 28% in South America over the comparison period the
previous year. Full year sales are forecast to grow by 15-25% in Europe and by
10-20% in South America.
Production volumes of forestry equipment in Europe increased during the first
half of the year by 40% over the comparison period the previous year.
Although PKC Group does not have its own wiring harness production in Asia,
growing export to Asia by our customers is supporting the growth of PKC's
production volumes.
Electronics business
Demand for electronic subcontracting services remained at the level of the
previous quarter in PKC's key markets. The availability of electronic
components improved.
Deliveries by PKC's Electronics business increased over the comparison period,
but failed to reach the level of the previous quarter on account of the
postponement of certain customer projects.

purchase 100% of the shares in SEGU companies. Under the share purchase
agreement, PKC Group's subsidiaries shall purchase all shares in SEGU
Systemelektrik GmbH (Germany), SEGU Polska Sp. z o.o. (Poland) and TZOV HBM
Kabel Corp (Ukraine). The closing of the acquisition was subject to fulfillment
of customary terms including Ukrainian competition authority approval. The
requirements of closing have been fulfilled and PKC gained control of the
acquired companies on April 30, 2011, which is also the day of consolidation.
SEGU companies and PKC's Polish unit will form a business unit servicing the
Central European markets with annual sales of about hundred million and about
2,500 employees. In addition to access to interesting new OEMs, the acquisition
of SEGU companies will bring a strategically important footprint in Germany as
well as benefit of scale and increased credibility for PKC.
SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The public deficit and high indebtedness of many European countries and the
United States may weaken economic growth and availability of financing for
investment goods.
Due to the global growth in industrial production, the prices and availability
of raw materials and components may develop in an unfavourable direction. This
might increase PKC's processing and freight costs during this year.
A potential weakening of the euro against the Polish zloty and the Russian
rouble as well as the potential weakening of the USD against the Mexican peso
may increase PKC's processing costs.
The principles, objectives and organisation of the company's risk management as
well as key risk areas are described in the risk management section of the
Corporate Governance guidelines, which are available on the company's website
at www.pkcgroup.com.
OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE

3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
PKC Group signed on 28 February 2011 an agreement for the purchase of shares in
the Segu companies. The ownership and control have been transferred to PKC
Group on 30 April 2011, which is also the date of consolidation.
The acquisition cost is calculated on the basis of the Segu companies'
preliminary balance sheet as per 30 April 2010 prepared, essentially, in
accordance with IFRS and the PKC Group's accounting principles.
The preliminary goodwill of EUR 0.1 million arising from the acquisition is
mainly attributable to the acquired workforce and economies of scale and
synergies expected from combining the operations of Segu and PKC Group. None of
the goodwill recognized for the Segu companies is tax deductible.
The following table summarizes the consideration paid for Segu companies and
the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed recognized at the
acquisition date. The below mentioned acquisition consideration and the fair
values at 30 June 2011 are preliminary as the finalisation of the acquisition
cost calculation is still ongoing.
Consideration at 30 April 2011 (EUR million)
Cash 13.7
Total consideration transferred 13.7
The assets and liabilities arising from the acquisition are as follows
(EUR million)
Property, plant and equipment 11.6
Intangible assets 2.8
Inventories 8.0
Trade and other receivables 6.1
Cash and cash equivalents 0.5
Non-current assets held for sale 0.4
Total assets 29.4
Provisions 0.2
Retirement benifit obligation 0.3
Interest-bearing liabilities 5.7
Trade and other liabilities 8.8
Deferred tax liabilities 0.8
Total liabilities 15.8
Total identifiable net assets 13.6
Goodwill 0.1
The fair value of the acquired identifiable intangible assets of EUR 2.8
million (including customer relationships and software) is preliminary pending
receipt of the final valuations for those assets.
The fair value of current trade receivables and other receivables is EUR 6.1
million and includes trade receivables with a fair value of EUR 2.7 million.
The fair value of trade receivables does not include any significant risk.
A building in Germany has been presented as a non-current asset held for sale
as agreed in pursuance of the Segu acquisition. The sale is expected to be
completed by 30 September 2011.
The total acquisition-related costs are estimated to approximate EUR 0.8
million. Acquisition-related cost included in other operating expenses in the
consolidated statement of comprehensive income amount to EUR 0.4 million for
the year ended 31 December 2010 and EUR 0.4 million for the 6 months ended 30
June 2011.
The net sales included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income
since 30 April 2011 contributed by Segu companies was EUR 7.9 million. Segu
companies also contributed profit of EUR 0.4 million over the same period.
Had the Segu companies been consolidated from 1 January 2011, the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income would show net sales of EUR 220.7 million and
profit of EUR 14.5 million.
