FINANCIAL RESULTS, 1-6/2005

The economic results of the group of Harju Elekter for the first half of 2005
are good. We have increased our sales revenue as well as our operating profit
and expanded our commercial operations in Estonia, Finland and Lithuania. A
favorable economic climate and demand in the markets have added security that
the growth will continue. We have also successfully launched our new
subsidiary AS Harju Elekter Elektrotehnika. The price of PKC shares on the
Helsinki Stock Exchange has remained stable.

The sales revenue of the consolidation group AS Harju Elekter comprised MEEK
229,2 (MEUR 8,8) in the H1 2005, increasing by 21% in comparison with the same
period of the previous year. Manufacturing contributed 80% of the consolidated
sales revenue (turnover growth 22%), services contributed 10% (turnover growth
23%) and trade accounted for 10% (turnover growth 10%). Of the turnover, 76%
was generated by revenue from the sales of industrial production and 24% by
the mediation and sale of services. At the same time the sale of industrial
output went up by 23% in the first half year-on-year to EEK 174,0 million (EUR
11,1 million) and the intermediate sale of services and goods increased by 16%
to EEK 55,3 million (EUR 3,5 million).

Sales to the Estonian market accounted for 54%, increasing by 37% to EEK 123,5
million (EUR 7,9 million). Export sales formed 46% and increased by 7% to EEK
105,7 million (EUR 6,8 million). Finland remained the largest export market
with a share of 34% in the turnover. 66% of the sales revenue of the group was
contributed by Estonia (an increase in turnover growth by 24% year-on-year),

The total operating profit of the consolidation group AS Harju Elekter was
MEEK 15,9 or MEUR 1,1, being 1,6 times higher than in the previous year.

The net profit of the group was MEEK 20,8, i.e. MEUR 1,3 (first half of 2004:
MEEK 79,9, i.e. MEUR 5,1). The main cause of the fall in the net profit was
the fact that the changes in the prices of PKC shares included in the balance
sheet as assets are recorded pursuant to the accounting principles as profit
for the period, regardless of the fact that no operations were conducted with
them. During the first half of 2005, the market price of the share of PKC
group Oyj recorded in the balance sheet was stable, increasing by EUR 0,12,
and additional income from the revaluation of the shares was MEEK 3,5 (MEUR
0,22). In the first half of 2004, the share price rose by EUR 1,75 and the
additional financial income from revaluation was MEEK 51,0 (MEUR 3,26).
Pursuant to the Finnish Income Tax Act, amended as of 1 January 2005, PKC
Group paid an extraordinarily large dividend (MEEK 19,4; MEUR 1,2), while in
2005, they paid only EUR 0,20 per share in a total of MEEK 5,8, i.e. MEUR
0,37. Pursuant to the amended Finnish Income Tax Act, in 2005, an income tax
of 15% was withheld on the paid dividends, amounting to MEEK 0,9 (TEUR 56).
The payment of dividends in 2005 also entailed for Harju Elekter an income tax
liability of MEEK 2,0 (MEUR 0,13), while in 2004, the payment of dividends had
been exempt from tax. The income tax expenditure totaled MEEK 3,0, i.e. TEUR
194 as reported for the first half of 2005 in the income statement (first half
of 2004: TEEK 33, i.e. TEUR 2).

The group’s operating margin was 6,9% which is 1,6 percentage points higher than
in the first half of 2004. The net margin was 10,6% (42,2% in H1 of 2004).

EPS was 1,24 kroons or 0,08 euros (H1 2004: 4,93 kroons or 0,32 euros)(1).

During the accounting period, the Group invested in tangible and intangible
assets a total of MEEK 27,9 or MEUR 1,78(H1 2004: MEEK 21,3 or MEUR 1,4). In
the second quarter, newly completed production buildings were rented to PKC
Eesti and HE Elektrotehnika. A total of MEEK 20,2 (MEUR 1,3) were invested in
real estate in the first half of the year; MEEK 3,9 (MEUR 0,25) was invested
in plant and equipment, and MEEK 2,6 million (MEUR 0,17) in the acquisition of
land.
