Powernet Oy in deeper partnership with NOTE


NOTE has extended its collaboration with Finnish company Powernet Oy. At the end
of 2012, Powernet decided to focus its business, and decided to increase the
outsourced share of production.

In the first quarter of 2013, NOTE took over and industrialised a large number
of Powernet products, with batch production scheduled to commence in the second
quarter. NOTE estimates that this deeper partnership will have a yearly sales
value of some 20 MSEK.

Powernet Oy, whose head office is in Äänekoski, Finland, develops and
manufactures tailored solutions for demanding power conversion applications.
NOTE Hyvinkää, Finland, will retain primary ownership of this account
relationship, and will support the customer on preparing new products, while
NOTE’s batch production for Powernet is located at NOTEs Industrial Plant in
Estonia.

Paul-Erik Sjöman, President of Powernet Oy, made the following comment on the
selection of NOTE: “Our priority was to appoint a partner with sector-leading
capability to deliver high quality at the right time, and whose organisation
puts flexibility and the customer front and centre”.

Peter Laveson, NOTE’s President and Chief Executive Officer responded: “We’re
pleased that Powernet Oy has chosen to enter a deeper partnership with us. Our
customer needed a professional and flexible partner to support its strategic
initiative.”
