PROFIT IMPROVED YEAR-ON-YEAR

during the comparable period in the previous year (1-3/2010: EUR 13.4
million)
* revenue increased particularly in product packages delivered to well-being
technology customers
* operating profit (EBIT) was EUR -0.4 million (EUR -1.7 million)

of EUR 3.8 million
This interim report has been prepared in accordance with international financial
reporting standards (IFRS) - IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting standard. The
accounting principles of the interim report are the same as those used in the
preparation of the 2010 financial statements. Unless otherwise stated, the
comparison figures refer to the same period in the previous year. This interim
report is unaudited.
Sami Mykkänen, President and CEO of Incap Group: "Revenue developed favourably
in all customer segments and despite the global shortage of materials, we were
mainly able to satisfy the needs of our customers."
"Although the financial result for the period showed a significant improvement
year-on-year, we still cannot be satisfied with our profitability. Operating
profit excluding non-recurring entries remained at the same level as in the
previous quarter."
"The global shortage of components led to an increase in the price of materials
and logistics and slowed especially deliveries of well-being technology
products, in which the demand was bigger than expected. We were confident the
situation would gradually improve by spring 2011, but the reduction in
production capacity in Japan further impaired the availability of certain
electronics components."
"Incap's outlook is now clearly better than a year ago, giving good conditions
for achieving profitable growth. In order to improve profitability and to secure
positive earnings development, we will increase materials procurement from Asia,
use competitive tendering to select materials suppliers and pass on the
increases in costs to customer prices".
Revenue and earnings in January-March 2011
Demand for Incap's services continued stable in the first quarter. Revenue stood
at EUR 16.0 million or 19% higher than during the comparable period in 2010 (1-
3/2010: EUR 13.4 million). Revenue increased steadily in each month during the
review period, reaching almost the same level as in the previous quarter
October-December 2010. The company's delivery capacity improved during the
review period, although a shortage of materials continued to hamper production
planning and deliveries.
Revenue from well-being technology products exceeded expectations, and the order
book for the next few months is at a good level. Demand for rotor components
picked up markedly, although the total demand by European energy efficiency
customers remained somewhat below targeted levels. The revenue of the Indian
unit developed at a level higher than in the corresponding period last year.
Negotiations were conducted with several customers on starting cooperation or
expanding existing scope of deliveries, and new products reached prototype and
testing stage. Incap and Kemppi Oy signed a contract on cooperation on
manufacturing services, and the first volume deliveries from Incap's Indian unit
took place in March. Cooperation covering design and manufacture of a smart
charging device for electric cars with a remarkable Indian manufacturer of
electric cars is proceeding favourably.
Profitability improved compared with the corresponding period last year and the
operating result for January-March was EUR -0.4 million (EUR -1.7 million),
representing -3% of the revenue (-12%). Profitability continued to be burdened
by the poor availability of certain components, which temporarily increased
material and logistics costs. In order to adjust capacity to the fluctuating
materials flow, the company increased the share of outsourced work, which
temporarily weakened the sales margin.

Earnings per share, EUR -0.05 -0.03 -0.08 -0.12 -0.16
Personnel expenses decreased by some 20% or EUR 0.7 million year-on-year, which
was mainly attributable to the merger of two electronics plants. Incap expects
the merger to generate cost savings of some EUR 3 million in 2011 compared with
2009.
Incap joined the Cleantech Finland network, a global network for Finnish
companies providing ecological solutions and technology, coordinated by Finpro.
Manufacturing services for equipment in energy efficiency and environmental
technologies are a strategic focus area of Incap, and global demand for products
in this field is expected to grow strongly.
Negotiations on the sale of the sheet-metal mechanics manufacturing business in
Helsinki ended without result in February. The company's intention remains to
develop the Helsinki plant into a unit that specialises in assembly.
Measures aimed at selling the Vuokatti factory building were continued. The
price estimate by an external valuer clearly exceeds the book value of the
property.
The value of inventories decreased by some 2% to EUR 12.8 million (EUR 13.1
million). Compared with the turn of the year, the value of inventories decreased
by some EUR 0.3 million (31 December 2010: EUR 13.1 million).
Net finance costs increased to EUR 0.5 million (EUR 0.2 million). Depreciation
stood at EUR 0.6 million (EUR 0.7 million). Losses before tax amounted to EUR
1.0 million (EUR -1.9 million). The loss for the period was EUR 1.0 million (-
1.9 million).
Return on investment was -4% (-22%) and return on equity was -75% (-138%).
Earnings per share were EUR -0.05 (EUR -0.16).
Balance sheet
The Group's balance sheet total was EUR 40.8 million (EUR 40.8 million). The
Group's equity at the close of the period was EUR 4.5 million (EUR 4.5 million).
Debt totalled EUR 36.3 million (EUR 36.3 million), of which interest-bearing
debt made up EUR 22.5 million (EUR 22.1 million). Of the total debt, EUR 28.4
million (25.5 million) were current liabilities. Equity of the parent company
totalled EUR 14.7 million, representing 72% of the share capital (EUR 11.1
million, 54%).
The Group's equity ratio was 11.0% (11.1%). Interest-bearing net liabilities
totalled EUR 21.9 million (EUR 21.7 million) and the gearing ratio was 487%
(477%). The earnings development and financing of the business operations
acquisition in India in 2007 contributed to the high gearing ratio.
Financing and cash flow
The Group's quick ratio was 0.5 (0.5) and the current ratio 1.0 (1.0). Cash flow
from operations was EUR -0.5 million (EUR -0.3 million) and the change in cash
and cash equivalents showed an increase of EUR 0.1 million (a decrease of EUR
0.1 million).
Financing negotiations were continued, and after the review period, Incap signed
financing agreements for a total of approximately EUR 3.8 million. Of this
financing, EUR 1.5 million was a counter-cyclical guarantee granted by Finnvera.
EUR 2 million of long-term financing and EUR 1 million of a short-term factoring
credit were received from a Finnish bank, and some EUR 0.8 million short-term
credit from an Indian bank.
Capital expenditure
Investments amounted to EUR 0.1 million (EUR 0.1 million) and include
investments related to the modernisation of machinery.
Personnel
At the end of the review period, Incap Group had a payroll of 721 employees
(774). The average number of personnel was 727 (734). Compared with the end of
2010, the number of personnel was reduced by 46 employees. At the end of the
review period, approximately 22% of the personnel worked in Finland (39%), 29%
in Estonia (23%) and 49% in India (38%).
Share-based incentive systems
During the period under review, the Board of Directors distributed 75,000 B
options under the option scheme 2009 to the President and CEO and the management
team members as well as a total of 126,000 of C options to the company's key
employees.
The subscription period of 2004C expired on 30 April 2011. No option rights were
used for subscriptions, since the target share price defined in the terms was
not realised. At the same time, the stock option scheme 2004 was ended.
Annual General Meeting 2011
Incap Corporation's Annual General Meeting was held in Helsinki on 13 April
2011, after the review period. The Annual General Meeting adopted the
consolidated financial statements for the financial year ending on 31 December
2010 and, in accordance with the proposal of the Board of Directors, decided
that no dividend be distributed and that the loss for the financial year, a
total of EUR 1,561,513.95, be transferred to retained earnings.
The Annual General Meeting discharged the members of the Board of Directors and
the President and CEO from liability. Raimo Helasmäki, Kari Häyrinen, Kalevi
Laurila, Susanna Miekk-oja and Lassi Noponen were re-elected to the Board of
Directors. At its organisation meeting, the Board of Directors elected Kalevi
Laurila as Chairman and Susanna Miekk-oja as Vice Chairman of the Board.
Ernst & Young Oy, Authorised Public Accountants, was re-elected as the company's
auditor.
The Annual General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide, within
one year of the Annual General Meeting, on increasing the share capital through
one or more rights issues so that the total number of shares to be subscribed
for on the basis of the authorisation is a maximum of 2,168,100, from which a
maximum of 300,000 shares can be used in stock options.
Shares and shareholders
Incap Corporation has one series of shares, and the number of shares at the end
of the period was 18,680,880 (12,180,880). During the period, the share price
varied between EUR 0.49 and EUR 0.63 (EUR 0.60 and 0.75). The closing price for
the period was EUR 0.52 (EUR 0.67). During the review period, the trading volume
was 270,349 shares or some 1% of outstanding shares (15%).
At the end of the period, the company had 1,080 shareholders (1,158). Foreign or
nominee-registered owners held 0.6% (0.9%) of all shares. The company's market
capitalisation on 31 March 2011 was EUR 9.7 million (EUR 8.0 million). The
company does not own any of its own shares.
Short-term risks and factors of uncertainty concerning operations
The risks and uncertainty factors related to Incap's operations are described in
more detail in the financial statements release published on 23 February 2011.
No significant changes have taken place with regard to these factors during the
review period. The financing agreements signed after the end of the review
period shall, however, reduce remarkably the risks involved with financing.
The most significant short-term risks are associated with the development of
customer demand, the costs of materials and availability of certain components.
Incap has a financing agreement in force until 31 May 2012, which covers the
loans related to the financing of the Indian subsidiary and Incap's credit line
and factoring credit line. The financing agreement includes the following
covenants:
Equity ratio net IBD/EBITDA Net capital expenditure
31 December 2010 7.4 % 20.6 EUR 1 million/12 months
30 June 2011 11.6 % 4.1 EUR 1 million/12 months
31 December 2011 onwards 10.9 % 5.6 EUR 1 million/12 months
When calculating the covenants, the factoring credit line in use is not
included. The equity ratio on 31 March 2011 was 11.0% and net IBD/EBITDA was
0.2. The covenants will be next reviewed on 30 June 2011 and then every six
months. According to the current forecast, it is likely that the covenants will
not be met on 30 June 2011.
In order to estimate its liquidity Incap has drawn up a cash flow forecast by
quarter, expanding up to the financial statements for the year 2011. The cash
flow forecast is based on the result estimate for 2011 and on the actual
turnover of sales receivables and accounts payable, as well as on the targeted
turnover of inventories. Based on this cash flow forecast, Incap's need for
working capital is increasing towards the year end. Incap trusts that, based on
the financing agreements it has signed, the company can cover the financing need
for the future growth provided that the Group's result does not remarkably stay
behind the estimated targets for result and turnover of inventories. The most
important factor related with financing is the turnover rate of inventories. If
the turnover rate of inventories stays in the present level, it would not alone
call for additional financing. The Group's existing working capital will be
sufficient for the next 12 months provided that the present financing agreements
remain valid even in case of eventual breakdown of covenants. Furthermore, Incap
has continued actions that were started at the end of last financial year to
sell the factory real estate in Vuokatti. Real estate and the loans related to
it have been described as non-current assets held-for-sale in the financial
statements. Estimated price as given in the certificate of valuation of an
external surveyor exceeds clearly the book value of the real estate.
Financing negotiations conducted with different parties ended after the review
period on 3 May 2011, at which time Incap signed financing agreements amounting
to EUR 3.8 million. Finnvera granted the company a counter-cyclical guarantee of
EUR 1.5 million, and EUR 2 million of long-term financing and EUR 1 million of a
short-term factoring credit were received from a Finnish bank. In addition, the
Indian subsidiary has signed a loan agreement with a local bank in India on a
short-term credit of some EUR 0.8 million.
The deferred tax assets recognised in the consolidated balance sheet (EUR 4.2
million) are based on the Board of Directors' assessment of future earnings
development at Incap Corporation and the Indian subsidiary. On 31 March 2011,
confirmed tax losses for which no deferred tax asset was recognised amounted to
EUR 8.0 million. Should future development not correspond to the Board's
estimate, the ensuing write-down of deferred tax assets in the consolidated
balance sheet would have a considerable impact on Incap Group's equity ratio
and, consequently, on the Group's equity and, for example, the covenants in the
above financing agreements.
Outlook for the rest of 2011
Incap's estimates for future business development are based on its customers'
forecasts and the company's own assessments. The general economic situation has
improved, and demand for Incap's services is expected to develop favourably.
However, the shortage of certain semiconductor components is predicted to
continue, which may affect Incap's deliveries and revenue development.
Incap will repeat its guidance issued on 23 February 2011 according to which the
company estimates that its revenue in 2011 will increase from the EUR 59.2
million achieved in 2010. The Group's full-year operating result (EBIT) in 2011
is expected to be positive and, thus, clearly higher than in 2010 (EUR -3.2
million).
