LEMMINKÄINEN’S 2005 FINANCIAL STATEMENT BULLETIN:
20% IMPROVEMENT IN THE COMPANY’S RESULT

Lemminkäinen Group’s net sales rose 11.9 % to EUR 1,601.7 million
(1,431.3). The profit before taxes was up 19.6 % at EUR 65.9
million (55.1), the return on investment was 16.5 % (14.8) and
earnings per share were EUR 2.57 (2.20). The order book grew by
29.1 % to EUR 1,011.3 million (783.4). The proposed dividend is
EUR 1.00 per share (0.60).


LEMMINKÄINEN CONTINUES TO DEVELOP FAVOURABLY

Lemminkäinen Group had a good year in 2005. The company’s net
sales rose 11.9 % to EUR 1,601.7 million (1,431.3). Most of the
revenue growth came from operations abroad, which generated net
sales of EUR 499.6 million (358.6), representing 31.2 % (25.1) of
the Group total. The profit before taxes improved 19.6 % to EUR
65.9 million (55.1). The operating profit was EUR 72.5 million
(63.9). The return on investment was 16.5 % (14.8), the return on
equity 24.5 % (21.9) and earnings per share EUR 2.57 (2.20). The
equity ratio was 31.0 % (27.5).

The Finnish construction market continued to develop favourably,
and this trend is expected to carry through 2006. The volume of
construction is expected to grow 3-4 % in 2006.

The net sales of Lemminkäinen’s Paving and Mineral Aggregates
Division rose and its result improved. The total volume of
Lemminkäinen’s asphalt production rose to 5.6 million tonnes
(4.8), about a half of which was produced abroad.

The Building Material Division’s result fell short of the set
profitability targets. The corporatisation of the roofing and
concrete products units at the beginning of this year is one of
the steps taken to improve the Division’s flagging profitability.

The volume of Lemcon’s business grew and the company’s
profitability trend was good. The market situation for civil
engineering contracting remains favourable in both Finland and
Sweden. The outlook for the Company’s international operations
developed well.

The net sales of Palmberg, which specialises in building
contracting on the Finnish market, rose and the result remained at
the previous year´s level.  The number of own residential
development apartments completed by the company was 1,068 units
(948). The sustained good level of building construction  provides
the company with favourable conditions for the coming year.

Tekmanni’s result improved considerably. The market for technical
building services is growing.


GOOD OUTLOOK

Lemminkäinen Group’s almost 30% increased order book provides a
good starting point for 2006. There are grounds to expect further
net sales growth and an improvement in the result.


TRANSITION TO IFRS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2005 are
prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting

exchange bulletin published on 7 December 2005.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ REPORT

CONSTRUCTION MARKET

The Finnish construction market continues to develop favourably.
The volume of construction grew 4 % in 2005. Building construction
remained brisk and grew by 4 %. The steady growth of building
construction will continue in 2006. The number of new housing
starts in 2005 was approximately 33,500 units, and the same level
is likely to be achieved this year as well.

Industrial construction increased last year and its growth will
continue in 2006. Commercial construction is also growing, whereas
new office construction still remains quite minimal. Demand for
refurbishment contracting remains good, with the accent on
apartment building repair work.

The volume of civil engineering contracting grew also 5 %.
Investments in transport infrastructure will continue to support
this growth in 2006. Finnish asphalt paving volumes were slightly
higher than in the previous year. The volume of underground
excavations was up thanks to major infrastructure projects.

The value of the Finnish construction industry’s international
operations rose to about EUR 2.2 billion (1.7) in 2005. The trend
was positive in all market areas of the construction companies.


NET SALES AND RESULTS

The net sales of Lemminkäinen Group rose 11.9 % to EUR 1,601.7
million (1,431.3), of which operations abroad accounted for EUR
499.6 million (358.6) or 31.2 % (25.1). The operating profit was
EUR 72.5 million (63.9), the profit before taxes EUR 65.9 million
(55.1) and the profit for the accounting period EUR 43.7 million
(37.4). The return on investment was 16.5 % (14.8), the return on
equity 24.5 % (21.9) and earnings per share EUR 2.57 (2.20).

The improvement in the Group’s result was largely due to the
significantly improved results of Tekmanni and Lemcon Ltd. The
result of the Paving and Mineral Aggregates Division also improved
slightly, and Palmberg’s result remained good. The Building
Materials Division’s result fell well short of the set targets.


RESULTS AND OUTLOOK BY BUSINESS SECTOR

Paving and Mineral Aggregates Division

The net sales of the Paving and Mineral Aggregates Division rose
to EUR 514.7 million (430.4). The Division’s operating profit was
EUR 20.5 million (18.4).

The total volume of asphalt paving contracting was slightly higher
than in the previous year. In Finland the volume of asphalt paving
was 2.8 million tonnes and in other countries altogether it was
approximately 2.7 million tonnes. The exceptionally warm and dry
autumn extended the contracting season and boosted production
volumes to a record level. In Scandinavian countries other than
Finland the price level of asphalt paving contracts has started to
rise. Prices of oil and bitumen products rose significantly, but
the company has been able to hedge against these price rises quite
well. The outlook for Lemminkäinen’s asphalt paving operations
over the coming season is quite satisfactory thanks to the strong
order book.


Building Materials Division

The net sales of the Building Materials Division were EUR 100.3
million (95.7). The Division’s operating profit was EUR 0.6
million (3.1).

The Building Material Division’s result fell short of the set
targets. There is plenty of supply on the market for precast
concrete staircase units, which has kept the competitive situation
tight and the price level weak. Demand for roofing and urban
environment contracting has remained good. The outlook for exports
of roofing materials is satisfactory, but imports of roofing
materials have risen.

The corporatisation of the roofing and concrete products units at
the beginning of this year is one of the steps taken to improve
the Division’s flagging profitability.

Lemcon Ltd

The net sales of Lemcon Ltd rose to EUR 328.8 million (264.5). The
company’s profit before taxes improved 48 % and was EUR 16.7
million (11.3).

Lemcon’s business is growing strongly and the company’s
profitability trend has been positive. The order book for rock
engineering contracting in Finland is good, and it appears that
the market situation in Sweden will remain favourable. Major
infrastructure projects underway and in the pipeline will keep the
order book at a reasonable level in the coming years. Work on the
E18 motorway project is well underway and proceeding according to
plan.

In Russia demand is brisk, notably for the construction of arenas.
Kazan Hall was completed at the end of the year and work began on
the construction of Magnitogorsk Arena. There was further growth
in inward investment to Russia from Western countries in 2005.
Forest and electronics industry investments in Asia continue to
rise. The outlook for Lemcon in China is good. India is a new
potential market.

The outlook for telecom network construction has remained
favourable, and Lemcon Network’s business has grown rapidly. The
company is now operating in 19 countries in Europe, Africa, the
Americas and Asia, and it employs about 600 people.

Oy Alfred A. Palmberg Ab

The net sales of Oy Alfred A. Palmberg Ab, which specialises in
building contracting on the Finnish market, rose 6 % to EUR 517.3
million (486.4). Palmberg’s result before taxes was EUR 25.2
million (26.0).

Low interest rates, extended loan maturities and consumer
confidence in household finances sustained the good level of
residential construction.  The number of own residential
development apartments completed by the company was 1,068 units
(948). New apartments completed under competitive tender
contracting totalled 929 (859). At the end of the accounting
period a total of 587 (923) such apartments were under
construction.

The volume of building construction rose 4 % last year, and growth
is expected to be sustained at this level in 2006.

Palmberg Group’s strong order book provides a good starting point
for 2006. The company is expected to be able to make about 1,500
new housing starts.

Tekmanni Oy

The net sales of Tekmanni Oy were EUR 191.1 million (198.3). The
company’s result before taxes improved and was EUR 7.4 million
(2.6).

Tekmanni’s result improved in all of its business areas. The
business adjustment and restructuring measures implemented last
year have improved the company’s competitiveness and
profitability. The brisk building refurbishment market has
increased the demand for technical building services. Especially
plumbing and pipework modernisation work has increased. Industrial
investments and the markets for technical maintenance and
servicing are growing. Thanks to the industry’s growth potential,
the outlook for Tekmanni over the coming year is favourable.


FINANCING

According to the source and application of funds statement, the
cash flow from business operations was EUR 59.5 million (57.4),
the cash flow from investments EUR –18.3 million (-22.1) and the
cash flow from financing EUR -39.3 million (-40.0). The cash flow
for the review period includes dividends totalling EUR 11.1
million paid in respect of the 2004 accounting period.

Interest-bearing liabilities were EUR 264.0 million (279.5) and
liquid funds were EUR 42.4 million (39.9). Interest-bearing net
debt was EUR 221.6 million (239.6).

Net financing expenses were EUR 7.7 million (9.2), representing
0.5 % (0.6) of net sales. The equity ratio was 31.0 % (27.5) and
gearing 102.9 % (132.4).

TRANSITION TO IFRS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Transition schedule

The financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2005 are
prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS). Previously, the Group’s financial reporting was
based on the Finnish Accounting Standards (FAS). The Group’s IFRS
transition date is 1 January 2004. The IFRS opening balance sheet
is prepared from the transition date. Interim financial reviews
complete with comparative figures will be prepared in accordance
with IFRS, commencing with the first-quarter review in 2006. The
2005 interim financial reviews and the annual financial statements
for 2004 were restated in accordance with IFRS rules and published
in December 2005.

Phased transition

Inventories and finance leasing have been treated according to
IFRS accounting principles since the annual financial statements
for 2003. The value of inventories has been incremented to include
their share of the fixed costs of production, and finance leasing
purchases have been recognised on the consolidated balance sheet.

Principal effects

The transition to IFRS financial statements will not affect the
Company’s strategies, business structure, dividend distribution
policy or performance-related pay principles. The principal
effects of the IFRS transition on the opening balance sheet are
described in the stock exchange bulletin published on 8 June 2005.
The principal effects of the IFRS transition on the 2004 and 2005
interim financial reviews are described in the stock exchange
bulletin published on 7 December 2005.

INVESTMENTS

Investments made in the accounting period totalled EUR 37.4
million (40.8). These investments were primarily purchases of
paving, crushing and excavation equipment, production plant for
building materials, and building construction equipment.

PERSONNEL

The average number of personnel in the Group during the accounting
period was 7,912 (7,479), of whom 2,750 (2,367) were salaried
staff and 5,162 (5,112) hourly paid employees. The number of
employees at the end of the year was 7,112 (6,783). The average
number of employees working abroad during the accounting period
was 1,965(1,623), i.e. 24.8 % (21.7) of the Group’s personnel.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

The Group’s R&D expenses represented 0.4 % of net sales. R&D
focused on technical development, operational efficiency gains,
and environmental and safety issues.

GROUP STRUCTURE

At the beginning of 2006 the Building Materials Division’s roofing
and concrete products operations were transferred to two newly
established subsidiaries: Lemminkäinen Katto Oy and Lemminkäinen
Betonituote Oy. The new companies together with Omni-Sica Oy will
still make up the Building Materials Division.

Lemminkäinen Corporation increased its stake in Tekmanni Oy by
making a tender offer to the minority interests and thereafter by
exercising its right of redemption under the provisions of the
Companies Act. As a result, Tekmanni is now a wholly owned
subsidiary of Lemminkäinen Corporation. The arbitration
proceedings instituted to confirm the redemption price are
pending.


ORDER BOOK

The Group’s uninvoiced order book grew 29.1 % to EUR 1,011.3
million (783.4), of which foreign orders accounted for EUR 343.4
million (244.6).

INVESTIGATIONS OF THE COMPETITION AUTHORITIES

The Finnish Competition Authority (FCA) has proposed to the Market
Court that a fine of EUR 68 million should be imposed on
Lemminkäinen in connection with its allegations of a cartel in the
asphalt paving industry. In the rejoinder submitted to the Market
Court Lemminkäinen has refuted the FCA’s allegations as being
unfounded in all respects and has called for the Market Court to
dismiss the FCA’s sanction proposal in its entirety. The case is
still pending in the Market Court.

OUTLOOK

The Finnish construction market continues to develop favourably.
The volume of construction is expected to grow 3-4% in 2006. The
positive trend will be supported by brisk building construction,
which is expected to grow 4% in 2006. Civil engineering and
refurbishment contracting will also continue to grow.

The outlook for Lemminkäinen Group is good. The Group’s housing
production will continue at a good level, and major infrastructure
project will keep the company occupied in the coming years.
International operations in both current and new market areas will
develop favourably. The outlook for technical building services
and for asphalt paving and mineral aggregate operations is
favourable. The Group’s almost 30% increased order book provides a
good starting point for 2006. There are grounds to expect further
net sales growth and an improvement in the result.
