15. Outlook Exel Oyj Interim Report January-March 2006 Pacific integrated with the Group during 2006 – will significantly increase net sales for the Industry Division The acquisition strengthens and accelerate the growth of the Industry division, especially in Far East markets already in 2006 Industry’s production strategy is being assessed in Europe – rationalisation will create non-recurring costs of approx. EUR 0.5 million Carbon fibre in short supply also in 2006 – limits growth opportunities and could impact sales of some product groups towards the end of the year The main markets for NW in Central Europe remain leveled as retail chains sell out existing stocks. The chains are expected to focus on the leading pole brands, including Exel. Efforts to open new NW markets continue

16. Outlook Exel Oyj Interim Report January-March 2006 The transfer of pole and floorball assembly and finishing combined with outsourcing logistics, will improve the Sport Division’s profitability beginning in 2007 Group net sales are expected to increase significantly Due to the considerable reorganisation of the Sport Division’s production and the integration of Pacific composites, the result will be impacted by non-recurring items, as a result of which the pre-tax profit is expected to be lower than in 2005.
