RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Olvi’s research and development efforts range from product design and
development within the framework of ordinary quality control to
projects aimed at the development of new products and packages.  The
R&D costs are treated as annual expenses.

BUSINESS RISKS

Normal business risks are inherently associated with the brewing and
soft drinks industry and the implementation of the Group’s strategies
and targets. The Group is not willing to take any additional risks
that would endanger the continuity of operations, be uncontrollable or
essentially hamper the company’s business.

The objective of managing the Group’s financing risks is to minimise
any adverse and unexpected impacts of changes in the financial markets
on the Group’s earnings and to ensure sufficient liquidity. The
primary type of financing risk is interest rate risk. The Group has
diversified its borrowing between fixed- and variable-rate loans and
uses interest rate swaps to reduce interest rate risk if required by
the market conditions.

Creditworthiness requirements for the Group’s customers are defined on
the basis of principles recorded in the operational system.  The Group
does not have any significant concentrations of credit risk on
receivables because its customer base is wide and geographically
diversified. The amount of credit losses in fiscal 2005 was not
significant.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PRINCIPLES

The parent company’s environmental protection policy comprises the
environmental policy of the Finnish brewing and soft drinks industry
and the company’s values, which include responsibility for the
environment. Olvi plc’s operations are in compliance with the
environmental permit granted by the North Savo Regional Environment
Centre on 30 September 2003, which is valid until 2014.
                                                               5 of 8
PERSONNEL

The Group’s average number of personnel during the period under review
was 1,074 (1,032), 333 (343) of them in Finland, 379 (354) in Estonia,
180 (164) in Latvia and 182 (180) in Lithuania.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Olvi plc’s Board of Directors has amended the company’s Corporate
Governance guidelines in accordance with the amended Securities
Markets Act. The company maintains a public and company-specific
insider register, as well as project-specific insider registers for
individual projects. Public insiders comprise the members of the Board
of Directors and Management Group, auditors and their closely related
parties.

euro quoted in January and a high of 21.60 euro quoted in December.
The year’s last trading price was 21.10 euro.

In May 2002, Olvi plc’s Board of Directors decided to allocate all of
the stock options issued by the Annual General Meeting on 4 April 2002
to Olvin Juomaa Oy, a wholly owned subsidiary of Olvi plc.  Olvi plc’s
Board of Directors will decide on the eventual distribution of the
stock options allocated to Olvin Juomaa Oy to current or future key
personnel of the Olvi Group.

A maximum of 200,000 A shares in Olvi plc can be subscribed for using
the stock options. The exercise price of the stock options is the
average quote weighted by trade volume of the Olvi plc A share on the
Helsinki Stock Exchange from 1 July to 31 December 2002. The exercise
price of the stock options will be reduced by the amount of any
dividends distributed after the price-setting period has started and
before the shares are subscribed.  The exercise price of the stock
options must be equal to or greater than the nominal value of the
share.

The subscription period for the stock options 2002A started on 1 April
2005, and for the stock options 2002B it will start on 1 April 2007.
The subscription period for both stock options ends on 30 April 2008.

Quotation of the share warrants issued by Olvi plc in 1999 to the
company’s personnel and to the members of the parent company’s Board
of Directors ceased on 30 April 2005. The warrant scheme included a
total of 500,000 warrants.

A total of 100,235 warrants changed hands from January to April 2005,
totalling 1.5 million euro in trading volume. The trading volume
represented 20.0 percent of the total number of warrants. The average
price of the warrants was 15.20 euro, with a low of 11.70 euro quoted
in January and a high of 18.50 euro quoted in April.

Olvi plc’s Annual General Meeting held on 5 April 2005 revoked all
existing unused authorisations to acquire own shares and authorised
the Board of Directors to acquire a maximum of 245,000 Olvi A shares
using distributable funds within one year of the Annual General
Meeting. The Board of Directors may also propose that any shares
acquired on the company’s own account be cancelled without reducing
the share capital. The authorisation allows the Board of Directors to
acquire the company’s own shares for use as consideration in case of
any upcoming corporate acquisitions, for the funding of investments or
for cancellation.

The Annual General Meeting decided to revoke all existing unused
authorisations for the transfer of own shares and authorise the Board
of Directors to decide on the transfer of any A shares acquired on the
company’s own account within one year of the Annual General Meeting.
The authorisation grants the Board of Directors with the power to
                                                               7 of 8

decide on the transfer price and to whom and in what order the shares
held by the company shall be transferred.

The company’s Board of Directors has not exercised its authorisation
and the company does not hold any of its own shares.

SHAREHOLDERS

Olvi had a total of 4,314 (4,515) shareholders at the end of the
review period. Finnish shareholding accounted for 77.8 (83.6) percent
of the shares and 93.2 (94.6) percent of the votes.
Nominee-registered holdings accounted for 15.1 (12.9) percent of the
shares and 3.4 (2.8) percent of the votes. Registered foreign holdings
accounted for 7.1 (3.5) percent of the shares and 3.4 (2.6) percent of
the votes.

OUTLOOK FOR 2006

Olvi Group’s market position continued to strengthen in 2005 both in
Finland and in the Baltic states. The increase in domestic sales
clearly outperformed the growth of the industry. Soft drinks and
ciders in particular improved their market positions.

The level of beer prices in Finland is not estimated to decrease any
further in 2006 but remain relatively low due to price competition and
the role of beers as a product for attracting customers to retail
stores. The total consumption of the brewing industry’s product groups
is expected to remain at the previous year’s level in 2006.

We expect Olvi Group’s full-year operating profit for 2006 to be on a
par with the previous year’s level or slightly better. This is
attributable to improved cost efficiency, as well as the positive
earnings development and strengthened market positions of the
subsidiaries in the Baltic states.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ PROPOSAL FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF PROFIT

Olvi plc continues to pursue an active and earnings-based dividend
policy. The aim is to distribute at least 40 percent of the annual
earnings per share as dividend to the shareholders.

The parent company’s distributable shareholders’ equity amounts to
41.5 (40.3) million euro.  The Group’s distributable shareholders’
equity amounts to 40.4 (33.4) million euro.

The company’s Board of Directors will propose to the Annual General
Meeting of shareholders that a dividend of 0.85 euro shall be paid for
2005 on each K and A share, representing 45.8 percent of the Olvi
Group’s earnings per share.  The proposed dividend payment totals 4.4
million euro.

                                                               8 of 8

In accordance with the Annual General Meeting’s decision, a dividend
of 0.65 euro on each K and A share, totalling 3.3 million euro, was
paid for 2004. The date of dividend payment was 15 April 2005.

The information in this report is unaudited.

company’s Web site during the week beginning on 3 April 2006. The

DERIVATIVE CONTRACTS

The business significance of the interest rate derivatives used by the
company is minor. Some of the derivative contracts will expire in
2007, some in 2008. The Group has not applied hedge accounting in
accordance with IAS 39 during the accounting period but has recognised
changes in the fair value of the interest rate derivatives through
profit or loss. Fair valuation increased financial expenses by 180
thousand euro.
