FINANCIAL RESULTS, 6 MONTHS 2005

The net sales of Viisnurk AS in the first six months of 2005 amounted to 118.5
mil Estonian kroons (7.6 mil euros) and net profit 6.4 mil kroons (411 thousand
euros). The net sales of the 2nd quarter of the accounting year totalled 56.6 mil
kroons (3.6 mil euros) and the net profit 2.6 mil kroons 165 thousand euros).
Last year, the company profited by 560 thousand kroons/36 thousand euros (whereas
the loss in the 2nd quarter of 2004 was 728 thousand kroons/47 thousand euros)
within the same period. AS Viisnurk's total sales of the first six months of 2004
were 195 mil kroons (12.5 mil euros), but this included a substantial amount of
the sales of divisions closed in 2004.

As of 30.06.2005 the total assets of Viisnurk AS amounted to 152.8 mil kroons
(9.8 mil euros). The liabilities of the company accounted for 58% thereof, i.e.
89 mil kroons (5.7 mil euros). Compared to the beginning of the year, the
liabilities of the company have decreased by 62.2 mil kroons (4 mil euros).

In the 2nd quarter, the sales processes of the set of assets of the Wood Division
and the machines and equipment of the Sports Goods Division of Viisnurk AS were
completed. The transactions did not significantly influence the current economic
performance of the company, as the profit and costs of the transactions were
included in the annual report 2004. The company used the received funds in full
to reduce debts.

Furniture Division

The six-month net sales of AS Viisnurk's Furniture Division were 64.6 mil kroons
(4.1 mil euros) and the profit 3.1 mil kroons (199 thousand euros).
Compared to the last year, the division's net sales have declined by 24 mil
kroons (1.6 mil euros) and the profit increased by 14%. Thus, the profitability
of the division has almost doubled compared to the previous year.

The six-month performance of the Furniture Division proves the success of the
selected strategy that focuses on stable customers and production of profitable
product lines only. The share of the sales of the division's own brands with
higher profitability is constantly increasing. The economic performance was
positively influenced also by the implementation of the fixed costs reduction
programme.

The plan to increase the division's sales in the German-speaking markets has been
realised to a lesser extent than expected due to a general recession in the
target market. The six-month sales in German-speaking markets amounted to ca 10%
of the division's net sales. To increase sales volumes in the area, several new
product lines have been prepared as a result of active product development. They
will be introduced in September at one of the largest furniture fairs in Germany
- M.O.W. 2005 in Barntrup. Viisnurk AS has displayed its products at the fair for
several years already.


Building Materials Division

The six-month net sales of the Building Materials Division amounted to 53.8 mil
kroons (3.4 mil euros) and profit to 9.6 mil kroons (614 thousand euros).
Last year, the turnover of the division totalled 48.9 mil kroons (3.1 mil euros)
and the profit 9.1 mil kroons (584 thousand euros) within the same period. The
increasing sales of the division's product line Isotex (which has a higher
upgrading level), making up already more than a third of the sales of the
accounting period, can be regarded as a positive trend.


The divisions of Viisnurk AS that were closed in 2004 resulted in a loss of 1.1
mil kroons (73 thousand euros) during the first six months of 2005. This was
mainly due to the storage of the divisions' assets prior to sales and costs
related to the sales process. The extraordinary expenses of the 2nd quarter
amounted to 0.2 mil kroons (13 thousand euros). By today, the sales processes of
both the Sports Goods Division and the Wood Division have been completed. The
respective costs will not be included in the coming periods.
