NET SALES AND PROFIT PERFORMANCE
The Group's consolidated net sales for January-September showed a 9.0%
increase. Net sales came to EUR 37.0 million (EUR 33.9 million in the
corresponding period of the previous year). External net sales from the
publishing business grew by 6.0%. Advertising revenues grew by 7.8% and
circulation revenues grew by 1.3%. External net sales from the printing
business grew by 33.5%. The higher net sales from publishing resulted from a
recovery in advertising volumes, due to, for example, election advertising
early in the year. The growth in net sales for the printing business was caused
by new customers, recovering volumes and price increases due to printing
materials. Circulation income accounted for 39% of consolidated net sales,
while advertising income and printing income represented 46% and 13%,
respectively.
For Q3, net sales grew by 6.2% and totalled EUR 11.6 million (EUR 11.0
million). External net sales from the publishing business grew by 3.2%.
Advertising revenues grew by 2.8%, and circulation revenues grew by 0.8%.
External net sales from the printing business grew by 35.6%. Circulation income
accounted for 42% of consolidated net sales in July-September, while
advertising income and printing income represented 44% and 12%, respectively.
Other operating income in January-September totalled EUR 0.3 million (EUR 0.3
million) and in July-September EUR 0.1 million (EUR 0.1 million).
Operating expenses for January-September amounted to EUR 30.5 million (EUR 29.2
million), up by 4.5% year on year. For July-September, operating expenses
amounted to EUR 9.5 million (EUR 9.2 million), up 3.5%. For January-September,
expenses arising from materials and services increased by 14.1%, particularly
due to growth in printing volumes as well as a rise in the prices of printing
materials and distribution. Personnel expenses for January-September increased
by 1.7%. The increases agreed in the industry's collective agreements for 2011
will only impact in full on the personnel expenses for the year end.
The share of the associated companies' result for January-September was EUR 8.2
million (EUR 4.8 million). Consolidated operating profit amounted to EUR 15.0
million (EUR 9.8 million), up by 52.6% year-on-year. The Group's operating
margin was 40.5% (28.9%). Operating profit excluding Alma Media Corporation and
the other associated companies amounted to EUR 6.8 million (EUR 5.0 million),
representing 18.4% (14.8%) of net sales. Operating profit from publishing grew
by EUR 1.1 million, and operating profit from printing grew by EUR 0.8 million.
The considerable rise in operating profit from printing was due to higher
volumes, a modest rise in costs early in the year and the fact that the first
quarter last year included costs for ceasing operation of the Vaasa printing
unit.
For July-September, the share of the associated companies' result was EUR 3.6
million (EUR 1.9 million). Consolidated operating profit amounted to EUR 5.8
million (EUR 3.8 million). Operating profit increased 53.0% from the
corresponding period. The Group's operating margin was 50.2% (34.8%) in
July-September. Operating profit excluding Alma Media Corporation and the other
associated companies amounted to EUR 2.3 million (EUR 1.9 million),
representing 19.3% (17.1%) of net sales. For the third quarter, operating
profit from publishing grew by EUR 0.1 million, and operating profit from
printing grew by EUR 0.3 million.
Net financial expenses for January-September amounted to EUR 2.9 million (net
financial income in the corresponding period of the previous year EUR 0.2
million). Net gain/loss on shares held for trading was EUR -0.9 million (EUR
0.2 million). Interest expenses excluding the fair value change in derivatives
hedging them totalled EUR 1.9 million (EUR 0.5 million). In order to hedge
against interest rate risk, on 21 December 2010 the company transformed some of
its floating-rate liabilities into fixed-rate liabilities, by means of interest
rate swaps. Given that the Group does not apply hedge accounting, unrealised
changes in the market value of the interest rate swaps are recognised through
profit or loss. In January-September, the market value of these interest rate
swaps fell by EUR 1.0 million.
Net financial expenses for July-September amounted to EUR 2.5 million (net
financial income in the corresponding period of the previous year EUR 0.03
million). Net gain/loss on shares held for trading was EUR -0.5 million (EUR
0.2 million). For Q3, interest expenses excluding the fair value change in
derivatives hedging them totalled EUR 0.6 million (EUR 0.2 million). In
July-September, the market value of interest rate swaps fell by EUR 1.4
million.
Pre-tax profits for January-September totalled EUR 12.1 million (EUR 10.0
million). Direct taxes amounted to EUR 0.8 million (EUR 1.2 million), and the
Group's net profit for the period totalled EUR 11.3 million (EUR 8.8 million).
The Group's net profit for the third quarter totalled EUR 3.4 million (EUR 3.3
million).
BALANCE SHEET AND FINANCING
The consolidated balance sheet total came to EUR 193.7 million (EUR 147.5
million), with EUR 102.9 million (EUR 100.3 million) of equity. On the
reporting date of 30 September 2011, the balance sheet value of the holding in
the associated company Alma Media Corporation was EUR 152.8 million and the
market value of the shares was EUR 136.3 million. According to the management's
estimate, write-down in this holding is unnecessary.
Interest-bearing liabilities totalled EUR 77.5 million (EUR 35.5 million). The
equity ratio was 54.3% (70.0%), and shareholders' equity per share stood at EUR
4.01 (EUR 3.91). The increase in financial assets for the period totalled EUR
2.1 million (decrease EUR 0.9 million), with liquid assets at the end of the
period totalling EUR 5.2 million (EUR 5.8 million). EUR 3.6 million in
interest-bearing loans were repaid in July on an accelerated basis. EUR 2.4
million of said amount was for loan repayments originally scheduled for 2012.
In order to safeguard its long-term financing, Ilkka-Yhtymä has renewed the EUR
15.5 million bullet loan originally maturing in 2013, to 2018.
Cash flow from operations for the period came to EUR 24.1 million (EUR 11.7
million). Cash flow from operations includes EUR 15.7 million (EUR 6.1 million)
in dividend income from Alma Media Corporation. Cash flow from investments

the Main List of the Helsinki Stock Exchange. At present, the series-II shares
of Ilkka-Yhtymä Oyj are listed on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki List, in the Consumer
Discretionary sector, the company's market value being classified as Mid Cap.

accounting for 1.2% of the total number of series-I shares. The total value of

The market value of the share capital at the closing rate for the reporting
period was EUR 176.0 million.
RISKS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
Ilkka-Yhtymä's most significant short-term risks are related to the development
of media advertising as well as circulation and printing volumes, which affect
the industry in general. The negative impacts of the increasing uncertainty in
both the international and Finland's economy on 2011 media advertising are
difficult to assess. Moreover, it is difficult to evaluate the impacts of the 9
per cent value-added tax, imposed on newspapers' subscription fees by the 2012
budget proposal, on circulation and printing volumes. Other operating risks are
discussed in more detail in the 2010 Annual Report.
The Group's major financial risks include credit risk, the risk associated with
the price of shares held for trading, liquidity risk and the risk of changes in
market interest rates applied to the loan portfolio. In order to hedge against
interest rate risk, on 21 December 2010 the company transformed some of its
floating-rate liabilities to a fixed rate, by means of interest rate swaps.
Given that the Group does not apply hedge accounting, changes in the market
value of the interest rate swap are recognised through profit and loss. Other
financial risks are discussed in more detail in the 2010 Annual Report.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
On 14 April 2011, the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Ilkka-Yhtymä Oyj approved
the financial statements, discharged the members of the Supervisory Board and
the Board of Directors and the Managing Director from liability and decided

Savola, whose term had come to an end, to the Board of Directors of
Ilkka-Yhtymä Oyj. Lasse Hautala will continue as chairman of the Supervisory

BUSINESS ARRANGEMENTS IN ASSOCIATED COMPANIES
Arena Interactive Oy, a subsidiary of Ilkka-Yhtymä Oyj's associated companies
Arena Partners Oy (37.82%) and Alma Media Oyj (29.8%), purchased the entire
capital stock of Steam Communications Oy on 9 September 2011. Both Arena
Interactive and Steam Communications specialise in the development and
production of mobile services, and message communication.
Arena Partners Oy, an associated company of Ilkka-Yhtymä Oyj (37.82%) acquired
36.16% of Uranus Konsultointi Oy on 4 October 2011. Uranus is engaged in two
business sectors: matching experts with employers (www.uranus.fi) and managing
the recruitment process (www.laura.fi). Uranus is also a member of the world's
leading international electronic recruitment network, The Network
(www.the-network.com), providing its services in Finland.
OUTLOOK FOR 2011
Increasing uncertainty in international economy makes the assessment of media
advertising in Finland in 2011 challenging. However, media advertising is
forecast to remain at the previous year's level during the final months of the
year. Due to consumer caution and media competition, newspapers' circulation
income is also predicted to remain at the previous year's level. Printing
business volumes have decreased permanently in Finland.
Some growth is forecast for the net sales of Ilkka-Yhtymä's printing and
publishing business.
Group operating profit from Ilkka-Yhtymä's own operations, and operating profit
as a percentage of net sales, excluding the share of Alma Media and other
associated companies, is estimated to grow significantly compared with 2010 in
spite of the rising trend in costs during the rest of the year. In addition,
the year's results will be influenced by interest rate trends, changes in the
market value of interest rate swaps, any trading in securities and the price
performance of securities investments.
The associated company Alma Media Corporation (Group ownership 29.79%) will
have a significant impact on Group operating profit and profit.
In the current economic climate, several uncertainty factors remain, related to
the predictability of both net sales and operating profit.
SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES
DRAFTING PRINCIPLES
Ilkka-Yhtymä Group's interim report has been prepared in compliance with the
recognition and measurement principles of IFRS, but not in compliance with all
IAS 34 requirements.
Since 1 January 2011, the Group has complied with the following new or updated
standards and interpretations:
- IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures - the revised standard. This revision
clarifies and simplifies the definition of a related party, in particular with
regard to the parties' significant influence and joint control. The revision
has no impact on the interim report.
- IFRS 32 Financial instruments: Presentation - Classification of Rights
Issues. The amendment concerns the classification of share issues, options and
subscription rights denominated in foreign currencies. In the future, share
issues, options and subscription rights may, under certain conditions, be
classified as equity rather than derivative instruments, as previously. This
amendment has no impact on the interim report.
- IFRIC 19 Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments. The
interpretation addresses certain situations (sometimes referred to as ‘debt for
equity swaps') where an entity renegotiates the terms of a financial liability
and issues an equity instrument to a creditor of the entity to extinguish all
or part of the financial liability. Such swaps are primarily considered as
repayment of debt. The fair value of the financial liability's carrying amount
and of the equity instrument is recognised in profit or loss. This
interpretation has no impact on the interim report.
- Annual improvements to IFRS and IFRIC (5/2010). These improvements will
chiefly enter into force in 2011. Several minor changes made have no bearing on
the interim report.
In other respects, the interim report was compiled in compliance with the same
accounting principles as the previous financial reports. The principles and
formulae for the calculation of the indicators, presented on page 53 of the
2010 annual report, remain unchanged.
The figures in the interim report have been presented unaudited.
