The Board of Directors of Sievi Capital plc approved a demerger plan on 11 August 2011, according to which the company will demerge partially so that the assets and liabilities of Sievi Capital plc’s contract manufacturing business (Scanfil EMS Oy) will be transferred to a new publicly listed company, Scanfil plc.  The assets and liabilities related to investment activity remained with Sievi Capital plc. Sievi Capital plc’s Extraordinary General Meeting decided on 22 November 2011 on the demerger of the company in accordance with the demerger plan signed by the company’s Board of Directors on 11 August 2011. The demerger was executed on 1 January 2012 and trading in Scanfil plc shares commenced on the stock exchange list of NASDAQ OMX Helsinki on 2 January 2012.

The resulting Scanfil Group will continue its accounting on the basis of the same accounting figures that it had when it was part of the consolidated financial IFRS statement of Sievi Capital plc. The figures of the Scanfil EMS group for 2011 will be used as comparison figures in the Scanfil group’s consolidated financial statements of 2012. In addition, all the comparison figures for the previous year contained in this financial statement bulletin are the figures of the Scanfil EMS Group.

Harri Takanen, CEO of Scanfil plc:
‘The year 2012 was challenging for the Scanfil Group. Slowed growth in the global economy and its effects impacted the operations of the company’s customers, making the contract manufacturing market more difficult.

In spite of the forecasted decrease in turnover, Scanfil achieved an operating profit of 4.5%. The company aimed to ensure the profitability of operations in an uncertain market situation by developing shared practices and efficiency throughout the Group and by adapting operations in China and Finland to demand. Thanks to our skilled personnel, we have been well able to address the challenges posed by the difficult market situation.  

Scanfil’s strategy to increase the sales of professional electronics has proved successful. Already, three-quarters of the company’s turnover is generated by professional electronics.

The demand for professional electronics products continued to be stable throughout the year. Scanfil managed to secure new customer accounts and expand its cooperation with existing customers. The demand for telecommunications products, on the other hand, remained soft. Underlying this is the industry trend that has continued for years and changes in the operating environment.’

GROUP STRUCTURE

The Scanfil Group comprises the parent company Scanfil plc and the Scanfil EMS subgroup. The Scanfil EMS subgroup, in turn, comprises the parent company Scanfil EMS Oy, subsidiaries and the associated company Greenpoint Oy (Scanfil EMS Oy’s share of ownership 40%). Scanfil EMS Oy’s subsidiaries are the Chinese subsidiaries Scanfil (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. and Scanfil (Hangzhou) Co., Ltd., the Hungarian subsidiaries Scanfil Kft. (Budapest) and Rozália Invest Kft. (Budapest) as well as the Estonia-based Scanfil Oü (Pärnu). The Scanfil EMS group has a 100% holding in all of its subsidiaries.

DEVELOPMENT OF OPERATIONS

The difficult economic situation in Europe and slowed growth of the world economy kept the market unstable in 2012. In the contract manufacturing market, the tight competitive situation continued throughout the year, both in Finland and all over the world.

In spite of the difficult economic situation, the demand for professional electronics continued to be stable and good all year round. The demand for telecommunications products, on the other hand, was initially weak during the first quarter, then picked up slightly but continued to be low during the latter half of the year. Turnover for 2012 totalled EUR 180.9 million, of which professional electronics customers accounted for 74% (62% in 2011) and telecommunications customers for 26% (38%).

In professional electronics, market fluctuations are softened by Scanfil’s diverse customer base. It includes several significant manufacturers with a strong market position in sectors such as automation and measurement technology, mechanical engineering and lift technology. Scanfil has also expanded its customer accounts into emerging industries, which in particular include renewable energy and energy efficiency.

In Finland, subsidiary Scanfil EMS Oy had statutory employer-employee negotiations at the Sievi plant. Based on the results of the negotiations, a total of 64 workers and salaried employees were made redundant. In addition, the Hangzhou subsidiary in China streamlined its operations during the period in order to take account of reduced demand. On the other hand, the operations of the Hungarian and in particular the Estonian plant have been strengthened in response to the picking up of demand at Eastern European plants.

Scanfil EMS Oy purchased production and office facilities with a total floor area of 26,000 square metres and a 19.3 hectare plot in Sievi from Sievi Capital plc in May. Scanfil EMS Oy was previously a tenant in the facilities. The purchase price was EUR 4.2 million, and Scanfil EMS Oy paid it using its liquid assets.

Finland’s Slot Machine Association (RAY) selected Scanfil EMS Oy as the contract supplier of slot machine assembly and proto series manufacturing with a contract valid until further notice.

Scanfil EMS Oy’s associated company Greenpoint Oy focused in 2012 particularly on developing special refrigerators based on global environmental and certification requirements. The company received a fairly large order from an international cigarette industry company, with which it signed a framework agreement extending until the end of 2013.

FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT

The Group’s turnover for January – December was EUR 180.9 (210.8) million. Distribution of turnover based on the location of customers was as follows: Finland 42% (40%), rest of Europe 19% (23%), Asia 37% (36%), USA 1% (1%) and the others 1% (1%).

Operating profit for the Group during the review period was EUR 8.1 (9.1) million, representing 4.5% (4.3%)of turnover. The operating profit includes the following non-recurring items recognised in the first quarter: Scanfil EMS Oy’s share of the damages paid by Ojala Yhtymä Oy, EUR 1.2 million, Scanfil plc’s listing expenses, EUR -0.4 million, and the provision for personnel termination expenses due to the restructuring of the Hangzhou subsidiary, EUR -0.4 million, a total of EUR +0.5 million. Operating profit excluding non-recurring items was EUR 7.6 million, representing 4.2% of turnover.

Earnings for the review period amounted to EUR 5.7 (6.3)million. Earnings per share were EUR 0.10 (0.11) and return on investment was 8.1% (9.5%).

Turnover amounted to EUR 40.8 (38.8) million in October-December and operating profit for the fourth quarter was EUR 0.7 (-0.9) million, or 1.8% (-2.4%) of turnover. Profit for the quarter was EUR 0.3 (0.0) million.

FINANCING AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURE

The Group enjoys a strong financial position.
The consolidated balance sheet totalled EUR 130.0 (129.4) million. Liabilities amounted to EUR 55.0 (60.1) million, EUR 26.6 (23.6) million of which were non-interest-bearing and EUR 28.4 (36.5) million interest-bearing. The equity ratio was 57.7% (53.6%) and gearing -2.4% (1.9%). The equity per share was EUR 1.30.

Liquid cash assets totalled EUR 20.5 (35.2) million.

Cash flow from operating activities in the accounting period came to EUR 11.2 (27.3) million positive. A further EUR 0.4 million was tied to working capital whereas in the previous year the amount of working capital that became available was EUR 17.7 million, due to the lower level of activity towards the end of 2011 compared with the previous year. Cash flow from investment activities was EUR -16.9 (3.6) million and cash flow from financing activities was EUR -8.9 (-7.2) million. Cash flow from investment activities is mainly comprised of the purchase of the Sievi property and the machine and equipment investments of subsidiaries and also deposits of over three months, which are classified as investments. The cash flow from financing activities consists of bank loan repayments.

Changes in exchange rates have not had a significant effect on the result of operational activity due to the business structure.

Gross investments in January – December in fixed assets totalled EUR 7.2 (3.8) million, which is 4.0% (1.8%) of turnover. The purchase of the Sievi property makes up the majority of the investments, EUR 4.2 million. Construction in progress for the new enterprise resource planning system amounted to EUR 0.6 million. Depreciations were EUR 4.5 (4.2) million.

Scanfil plc’s Extraordinary General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors on 19 April 2012 to decide on the acquisition of a maximum of 5,000,000 company shares and on the transfer of a maximum of 5,000,000 company shares. The authorisation to repurchase treasury shares is valid for 18 months after its granting and the conveyance authorisation for three years after its granting. The authorisations granted by the General Meeting have not been exercised.

The Board of Directors has no existing share issue authorisations or authorisations to issue convertible bonds with warrants.

SHARE TRADING AND SHARE PERFORMANCE

The highest trading price during the year was EUR 1.10 and the lowest EUR 0.60, the closing price for the period standing at EUR 0.82. A total of 8,982,004 shares were traded during the period, corresponding to 15.6% of the total number of shares. The market value of the shares on 31 December 2012 was EUR 47.3 million.

PERSONNEL

At the end of the financial year, the Group employed 1,653 (1,745) people, of whom 1,415 (1,449) in the company’s units outside Finland. The proportion of employees working in China was 47% (51%) at the end of the year. In all, 86% (83%) of the Group’s personnel were employed by subsidiaries outside Finland on 31 December 2012. Scanfil Group’s personnel averaged 1,669 (2,027) employees during the review period.

OTHER EVENTS OF THE REVIEW PERIOD

With the judgment issued on February 29, 2012, the court of arbitration ordered Ojala-Yhtymä Oy and its shareholders (“Ojala”) to pay a total of EUR 2 million and interest to Scanfil plc’s subsidiary Scanfil EMS Oy and Sievi Capital plc and to pay the companies’ legal expenses in the matter in full. Furthermore, Ojala was obligated to pay the court of arbitration’s expenses and fees in full. The compensation less legal expenses was divided equally between Scanfil EMS Oy and Sievi Capital plc. Scanfil plc published a stock exchange release concerning the matter on 1 March 2012.

NOTIFICATIONS OF CHANGES IN SHAREHOLDING

Scanfil plc was informed on 18 April 2012 in accordance with Chapter 2, section 9 of the Securities Market Act that the Scanfil plc shares transferred to heirs and beneficiaries as the result of the distribution of matrimonial assets and estate of Eero Alvari Kotilainen’s estate on 9 April 2012, had been transferred to Varikot Oy (new company) through transactions implemented on 17 April 2012. Following the arrangement, Varikot Oy holds 7,273,109 Scanfil plc shares, or 12.60% of all shares, and it is the second-largest individual shareholder in Scanfil plc. Based on an agreement between the shareholders, the voting right in Varikot Oy is used together by Riitta-Liisa Kotilainen (50%) and Sirpa Kotilainen (50%).

In a notification received by Scanfil plc on 18 July 2012 pursuant to Chapter 2, section 9 of the Securities Market Act, Varikot Oy announced that a change had taken place in Varikot Oy’s voting rights, effective 18 July 2012. Based on an agreement between the shareholders, the voting right in Varikot Oy is used together by Sirpa Kotilainen (50%), Riitta-Liisa Kotilainen (25%) and Aleksi Kotilainen (25%).

FUTURE PROSPECTS

Due to the continued uncertain situation in the global economy, the predictability of the contract manufacturing market is very poor.

Scanfil estimates that its turnover for 2013 compared to 2012 will increase and that the operating profit will be on par with 2012.

OPERATIONAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Scanfil Group’s most significant short-term risks and uncertainty factors are related to the fact that the global economy will again begin to decline or that the period of slow growth will continue for a long time. The poor growth expectations for the economy deteriorate the predictability of Scanfil’s operating environment both in the short and long term. The decrease in international demand on the contract manufacturing market and for investment commodities due to poor economic growth may hamper or negatively affect the demand for Scanfil’s telecommunications and professional electronics products. The fall in demand may hamper the growth of Scanfil’s business and negatively affect the company’s turnover and profitability. 

In other respects, the risks facing Scanfil’s business have remained essentially the same. The company’s risks and risk management are described in greater detail on the company’s website under Corporate Governance.

COMPARISON FIGURES

Scanfil plc, the parent company of the Scanfil Group established as the result of the demerger, was established to execute the demerger. Scanfil plc is mainly a technical instrument for executing the demerger. The resulting Scanfil Group will continue its accounting on the basis of the same accounting figures that it had when it was part of the consolidated financial IFRS statement of Sievi Capital plc. Consequently, when the Scanfil Group is established, the balance sheet items transferred in the demerger will not be revalued; thus, no new goodwill will be created, and the Group’s total equity will not be changed in the demerger. Therefore, the figures of the Scanfil EMS group will be used as comparison figures in the Scanfil group’s consolidated financial statements for 2012. In addition, all the comparison figures for the previous year contained in this financial statement bulletin are the figures of the Scanfil EMS group.

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

This financial statement bulletin has been prepared in accordance with the IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting standard.
The interim report has been prepared applying the same accounting principles as in Scanfil EMS Group’s financial statements for 2011.
Individual figures and grand totals of tables have been rounded to the nearest million euros, so they will not always add up. The figures are unaudited.
