Tekla Corporation's Financial Statements Bulletin January 1 - December 31, 2010:
Results for 2010 were good
Net sales of Tekla Group for January-December 2010 totaled 57.83 (50.07) million
euros, increasing by 15.5%. The operating result was 10.06 (6.81) million euros,
17.4% (13.6%) of net sales. Earnings per share were 0.36 (0.23) euros. The Board
of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that 0.25 euros be paid as
dividend and 0.35 euros as repayment of equity, for a total of 0.60 euros per
share.
Net sales for the fourth quarter amounted to 16.89 (14.29) million euros,
increasing by 18.2%. The operating result for the quarter was 3.17 (2.20)
million euros, or 18.8% (15.4%) of net sales.
Ari Kohonen, President and CEO, comments on the reporting period:
- All in all, we can be satisfied with Tekla's development in 2010. The markets
have strengthened but not yet recovered to the level of 2007 - 2008. Our net
sales increased and our profitability improved considerably. In our view, the
market trend that is favorable to us will continue, and we will continue to
focus on developing, for example, our software offering. Even though last year
was a good one, we have prerequisites for clearly even better results through
our own measures, especially with the general market situation improving.
- A significant part of product development concerned the Tekla BIMsight
software, which will be launched in the middle of February. The software,
offered to the construction industry, is meant to promote the establishment of
information modeling as the dominant practice in the industry. This is an
investment in the future, emphasizing the long-term nature of our business
decisions. 0.89 million euros of R&D expenses associated with the development of
the software were capitalized.
- Tekla's net sales for the fourth quarter were the all-time high in the
company's history, almost 17 million euros. The operating result for the quarter
was at a good level, even if not record high.
- Our main business area, Building & Construction, increased its net sales by
almost 19% in 2010, and its operating result improved clearly. During the fourth
quarter, net sales increased considerably and operating result more than
doubled. Full-year license sales increased by 27% compared to the previous year.
The development of maintenance sales was also favorable, up 12%.
- In terms of the market areas, license sales increased the most in the Middle
East and Nordic countries during the fourth quarter. In terms of Tekla's largest
market areas, full-year license sales increased the most in the Nordic
countries, India, the Middle East and the Far East. The United States was
Tekla's largest individual market in 2010 as well, and due to the favorable
fourth quarter, full-year sales increased in the U.S. as well.
- Infra & Energy's annual development was satisfactory. I&E's net sales
increased by approximately 7%, but its operating result decreased slightly from
the previous year. The number of personnel was increased in order to develop the
product offering. Once again, the net sales for the fourth quarter were the
highest of all quarters, and Q4 operating result accounted for more than one
half of the full-year operating result.
- The business area announced at the end of January that it will renew its
software offering commercially. The purpose of the renewed Tekla Solutions
offering is to sell Infra & Energy software especially to new customers and new
types of customers in Finland and internationally.
- The number of personnel increased by 24 people during the year. The average
number of personnel during 2010 increased by 5 persons on the previous year.
Our long-term personnel trend continues to be rising in order to be able to
utilize the market potential in sight.
The Board of Directors estimates net sales will increase by 10% to 15% in 2011.
The operating result is estimated to be better than the previous year, 15% to
20% of net sales. The estimates are based on organic growth in net sales.

Building & Construction
Tekla's Building & Construction business area (B&C) develops and markets the
Tekla Structures software product designed for Building Information Modeling
(BIM). The software offers open integration with other programs and models
imported from them, supporting all the phases of the construction process. Tekla
Structures is a comprehensive solution for structural engineering, design and
production of steel structures and precast units, reinforced concrete detailing
as well as site and construction management.
Tekla's position as a supplier of 3D modeling software is strong and despite the
building industry's partly challenging situation, the number of users is
increasing further. The number of Tekla Structures licenses sold has exceeded
20,000. Customers in the building industry are seeking tools like Tekla's
products that make their operations more efficient. Information modeling is
gaining a stronger foothold in structural design and other stages of the
building process. The benefits of information modeling are seen more clearly in
site management in particular.
Demand has fluctuated strongly in license-based sales. Demand developed
favorably in several market areas in 2010. Large customers accounted for a
higher share of net sales, even though sales continued to be quite fragmented.
The expansion of the product offering and the extensive sales and support
network have contributed to this development.
The net sales of B&C amounted to 43.08 (36.34) million euros for January-
December 2010. The growth in net sales was 18.5% compared to the previous year.
Full-year license sales increased by 27% compared to the previous years. The
development of maintenance sales was also favorable, up 12%. Approximately one
fourth of license sales were generated by functionality for other than detailed
steel design. This share was considerably higher in the Nordic countries than
other markets. B&C's full-year operating result was 8.23 (4.72) million euros
and operating result percentage was 19.1% (13.0%).
During the fourth quarter, B&C's net sales amounted to 12.21 (9.90) million
euros, increasing by 23.3%. B&C's operating result for October-December was
2.26 (1.05) million euros and operating result percentage was 18.5% (10.6%).
International operations accounted for 95% (96%) of B&C's net sales in January-
December 2010. In terms of the market areas, license sales increased the most
in the Middle East and Nordic countries during the fourth quarter. In terms of
Tekla's largest market areas, full-year license sales increased the most in the
Nordic countries, India, the Middle East and the Far East. The United States was
Tekla's largest individual market in 2010 as well, and due to the favorable
fourth quarter, full-year sales increased in the U.S. as well. Significant
development of the customer relationship with Nucor Corporation contributed to
this.
It is very favorable for Tekla that the building industry's move to information-
model-based 3D processes from traditional 2D ways of working continues. Because
of this, the business area's long-term outlook continues to be promising.
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is consolidating its position in the
building industry. This expands the cooperation between the parties of the
construction process. In order to facilitate cooperation, the interoperability
of software is increased further and data exchange between software systems is
improved, so that customers are able to choose the product that is suited the
best for a specific task.
At the end of November 2010, Tekla announced that Max Bögl Group, the largest
private construction company in Germany, had decided to introduce the Tekla
Structures software solution to their operations. The process of designing
concrete elements for construction across the entire company will be handled in
Tekla Structures, including the transfer of data to production planning systems.
At the beginning of November, Tekla and Autodesk announced their cooperation to
enable even better compatibility between their respective Tekla Structures and
Revit software for the construction industry.
In April, Tekla announced that it had signed a framework agreement with the
Swedish company Sweco.
Tekla Structures' functionality for cast-in-place was selected as the "Most
Innovative Product" at the North American construction industry's annual "World
of Concrete" event in March.
During the first quarter, Tekla established a regional office in Singapore to
serve customers throughout Southeast Asia. At the same time, the product
development activity in Malaysia was transferred to Finland.
Measures against software piracy continued both by own efforts and in
cooperation with other parties, such as BSA. The efforts have borne fruit during
2010. Piracy will probably not be completely eradicated.
The product development of Tekla Structures concentrated on development that
supports the advance of BIM and, in particular, enhancing project-related
communication. With regard to product development, investments were increased in
longer-term development of new technology and completely new types of customer
offerings. The Tekla BIMsight software will be launched as a result of this in
February 2011. Additional information on the software is provided in this
release under Events after the reporting period.
The 2010 annual main version of Tekla Structures was released at the beginning
of February.
Infra & Energy
The Infra & Energy business area focuses on the development and sales of model-
based software solutions that support customers' core processes in the
infrastructure and energy sectors. Its key customer industries (products in
parentheses) are energy distribution (Tekla Xpower), public administration
(Tekla Xcity), as well as civil engineering and water (Tekla Xstreet and Tekla
Xpipe).
At the end of January 2011, Infra & Energy announced that it will renew its
product offering, Tekla Solutions. For additional information, see Events after
the reporting period.
In the energy industry, information system acquisitions are strategic
investments for the companies. The economic recession has not had much effect on
these investments. Climate change and the endeavor towards sustainable
development set new requirements for the industry, e.g., with new energy
production methods becoming more common and partial decentralization of
production. In addition, consumers' demands for the reliability of distribution
and energy consumption-related customer service will increase. New technologies,
smart grids and software solutions hold a key role in achieving these
objectives. Tekla's market position as a supplier of energy distribution
information systems is strong in the Nordic and Baltic countries.
In public administration, the tightening economy has decreased income and funds
available for investments. Improved and more extensive utilization of
information technology is seen to be a key solution for achieving efficiency,
self-services and thereby cost-savings. Citizens' services are being extensively
migrated into the Web, and the accessibility of the services can also be
improved this way. Tekla's sales and market position remained strong in Finland.
Infra & Energy's annual development was satisfactory. The net sales for January-
December 2010 totaled 14.81 (13.80) million euros, increasing by approximately
7%. I&E's operating result was 1.92 (2.08) million euros. I&E's operating result
percentage was 13.0% (15.1%). International operations accounted for 34% (42%)
of net sales.
Net sales for the fourth quarter amounted to 4.70 (4.41) million euros, and
operating result was 1.03 (0.95) million euros, or 21.9% (21.5%) of net sales.
Once again, the net sales for the fourth quarter were the highest of all
quarters, and Q4 operating result accounted for more than one half of the full-
year operating result.
With regard to customers in the energy sector, Latvenergo expanded the Tekla
Xpower system by ordering an outage communication solution for customer service
during the second half of 2010. During the fourth quarter, an agreement on the
development of automatic fault limiting functionalities for use support
application was made with Vattenfall Distribution Finland. Implementation
projects with Vattenfall Central Europe Berlin, Vattenfall Heat and a few other
Finnish energy companies were completed.
Agreements on the implementation of the Tekla Xpower district heating
application were made with a Norwegian and a Swedish customer during the second
quarter.
In public administration, several Finnish Tekla Xcity customers ordered out-of-
the-box applications for their municipal e-services towards the end of the year.
The adoption of e-service solutions expanded in Finnish cities.
An agreement was signed with the City of Kuopio in the spring on the
implementation of the Tekla Xcity system as the core solution for the city's
geographic information management.
An application for the utilization of quality data of automatic meter reading in
Tekla Xpower was completed. Agreements were signed with key customers on the
further development of Tekla Xcity. The project focuses on the further
development of Tekla's Web solutions and geographic information analyses. An
application of e-services developed for the collection and centralized
management of geographic information-based feedback data was completed,
initially for customers in the public administration.
PERSONNEL
Tekla Group personnel averaged 461 (456) in January-December 2010; on average
184 (189) worked outside Finland. In these figures, the number of part-time
staff has been converted to correspond to full-time work contribution. At the
end of the year, Tekla personnel totaled 490 (466) including part-time staff, of
whom 188 (192) worked outside Finland.
The number of personnel increased by 24 people during the year. The average
number of personnel increased by 5 persons on the previous year. Tekla's long-
term personnel trend continues to be rising in order to be able to utilize the
market potential in sight.
The average age of Tekla's employees was 38.3 (37.8) years. Of the personnel,
63% (64%) had a higher academic degree or university-level studies. 28% (29%) of
Tekla employees were female, 72% (71%) male. The turnover of personnel was still
lower than the average in the field; 7.6% (3.8%).
The company has an incentive system that covers all employees. Its level is
decided by the Board of Directors. Compensation is linked to the operational
and, in particular, financial performance during the previous year. Tekla has no
options or share-related remuneration systems.

EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
Tekla BIMsight - information model-based tool for project collaboration
Tekla wants to advance information model-based cooperation as an industry
standard and is launching Tekla BIMsight, an easy-to-access Web-based software
tool in mid-February. The software makes the benefits of building information
modeling available to everyone in the industry. It contains all the necessary
information needed to manage and collaborate in a construction project in an
illustrative form. Tekla BIMsight reads and understands a variety of file
formats and it supports software interoperability and industry standardization.
The Tekla BIMsight tool can be used throughout the project from the design phase
to erection and site management.
Tekla Solutions
Tekla announced at the end of January that it will renew the commercial
structure, naming and market message of the Infra & Energy business area
software during 2011. Instead of the previous X products (such as Tekla Xpower
and Tekla Xcity), customers will be offered Tekla Solutions software solutions
that better reflect the customer orientation and modularity of the software as
well as the common elements in the software foundation. The renewal is part of
the development of Tekla's software offering to customers in energy
distribution, public administration and civil engineering.
Tekla Solutions offering supports the sales, delivery and development of
customer group-specific solutions. In addition, the renewed software offering
supports Tekla's objective to sell Infra & Energy software to new customers and
new types of customers both in Finland and internationally.
Composition of the Tekla Management Team
As of January 1, 2011, the Tekla Management Team consists of the following
persons: Ari Kohonen (President and CEO), Anneli Bergström (Vice President,
Human Resources), Ritva Keinonen (Vice President, Product Development, Building
& Construction), Timo Keinänen (CFO), Kai Lehtinen (Senior Vice President, Infra
& Energy business area), Harald Lundberg (Vice President, Information
Management), Heikki Multamäki (Executive Vice President, Business Development),
and Risto Räty (Executive Vice President, Building & Construction business
area).
SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTY FACTORS
No changes have taken place in the short-term risks and uncertainty factors
during the year. Possible risks and uncertainty factors associated with Tekla's
business are mainly related to the market and competition situation and the
general economic situation. Trends in the building industry have improved in
several market areas, but the development is incoherent. There is still no
certainty of the continued favorable development of the global economy.
A majority of Tekla's net sales comprises of sales of licenses entitling to use
software products. Fluctuation in their demand can be rapid and significant. In
the short term and with rapidly decreasing demand, it is challenging to
proportion fixed personnel expenses, which account for the majority of Tekla's
costs. Tekla is, however, able to react swiftly to growing demand, and profits
from additional sales are good.
The sales of Tekla software are geographically distributed. In addition,
individual customers do not account for a significant share of net sales, and
therefore such risks are not essential.
BOARD'S PROPOSAL FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF PROFIT
The parent company's distributable equity on December 31, 2010 were 35,932,873
euros, of which net profit for the period amounted to 7,730,713 euros.
Tekla Corporation's Board will propose to the Annual General Meeting, to be held
on April 6, 2011, that a dividend of 0.25 euros and a repayment of equity of
0,35 euros be distributed for a total payment of 0.60 euros per share (totaling
13,493,760 euros). No dividends or repayments of equity shall be paid on the
96,600 shares held by the company.
OUTLOOK FOR 2011
The Board of Directors estimates net sales to increase by 10% to 15% in 2011.
The operating result is estimated to be better than the previous year, 15% to
20% of net sales. The estimates are based on organic growth in net sales and the
expected continuation of the favorable trend in construction activity in Tekla's
central market areas.
FINANCIAL REPORTING
Tekla's Annual Report for 2010 will be published on the company's Web site on

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
The notes are presented in millions of Euros, unless
otherwise stated.
This financial statements bulletin has been prepared in accordance with the
IAS 34 (Interim Financial Reporting) standard. The same accounting and
valuation policies and methods of computation have been followed in the
financial statements as in the annual financial statements for 2009. The
amendments and interpretations to published standards as well as new
standards, effective January 1, 2010, are presented in detail in the
financial statement for 2009.
The figures presented in the financial statements bulletin are unaudited.
Use of estimates
When preparing the financial statements, the Group's management is required
to make estimates and assumptions influencing the content of the financial
statements, and it must exercise its judgment regarding the application of
accounting policies. Although these estimates are based on the management's
best knowledge, actual results may ultimately differ from the estimates
used in the financial statements. Tax losses carried forward are recognized
as deferred tax assets only to the extent that it is probable that future
taxable profits will be available against which unused tax losses can be
utilized. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Acquired operations
Tekla Corporation reinforced its collaboration with the Dutch reseller
Construsoft Groep BV by acquiring 20% of its shares on May 3, 2010. Construsoft
has been a reseller of Tekla products in several countries for 15 years.

purchase price, 73,000 treasury shares were transferred at a price of 7.03 euros
per share according to the market value on May 7, 2010, for a total price of
0.51 million euros. Tekla is obliged to pay an additional purchase price
depending on the result development of the acquired business in 2009-2011. The
additional purchase price estimated in the financial statements is 0.36 million
euros, and any resulting liability will be due in 2012.
Consolidated result of the associated company and equity adjustment to the
investment is 0.09 million euros. Had Construsoft Groep BV's figures been
