84 Platform 1: improving pulp properties for existing products Fluff pulp Hygiene and health, growing by 3.6% per year Life expectancy and increased disposable income in developing countries Improve fluff pulp properties to increase customer value Dissolving pulp Pulp Dissolving pulp to textiles is a 6.1 Mt market, growing 6.8% per year The increase of cellulosic fibre in textiles is driven by global brand owners Improve quality to be able to differentiate in the value chain Pulp for specialty papers Source: Smithers Pira, Hawkins Wright Flexible packaging, labels, security, décor, among others 28 Mt market, growing 1.8% per year Fibre improvements, special additives, sustainable coatings & barriers, source reduction and other innovation opportunities 84

85 Platform 2: Developing new technologies for using wood fibre in textiles, non-woven and specialty papers Regenerated cellulose Participate in the development of new technologies for using wood fibre in textile Growing interest from global brand owners increases demand for renewable fibres Opportunity to leverage on existing assets to enter this new market MFC MFC has potential to be used in specialty papers and non-woven MFC is a versatile material with potential to work as strength enhancer, additive, binder and barrier material has a long history in the research of MFC and has a demonstration plant in Imatra, Finland Source: 85

86 Platform 3: Lignin big opportunities in many markets Phenol replacement Phenolic resins is a 2.8 Mt market, growing at 4% CAGR It replaces phenol in adhesives for plywood, OSB (oriented strand board), laminates, LVL and other wood construction materials The carbon footprint for lignin is roughly 1/10 of the carbon footprint of phenol Carbon fibre Lignin Light-weight high performance composites Kt market, growing at 9 12% CAGR Low-carbon-footprint carbon fibre is unoccupied market space Energy storage Source:, Carbon Composites, IDTechEx, LuxResearch, Markets and Research, Zion Research 86 Substitution of conventional hard carbon anode materials in energy storage, namely Li-Ion Batteries and Supercapacitors Market growing on average by 20% CAGR Key applications: portable consumer electronics, power tools, electrical vehicles, stationary applications and back-up systems

87 Renewable Lineo TM by can replace fossil-based materials Wood-based lignin is a renewable, nontoxic, traceable material Environment benefit, for example, in carbon fibres, energy storage and mechanical forest industry Today as a replacement for oil-based phenolic materials in glues for example in plywood and paper lamination Lignin makes up 20-30% of round wood Market size; 3Mt for Phenol replacement 87

88 Platform 4: Bio-based chemicals replacing fossil-based materials Bioplastics and intermediates C5 and C6 sugars from wood Source: PwC, Kline and Industry experts Growing interest in packaging/bottling markets for renewable solutions Reduction on carbon footprint and enhanced properties are key target areas Market clearly favoring second generation biomass as the raw material source It is a very populated market place, thus, strategic alliances will be crucial to win in this industry Xylose Key application is the xylitol (sweetener) market (approximately 120 Kt at 4 6% CAGR) Compared to C6 sugars it still is a rather undeveloped market, mainly due to lack of pure xylose availability. This is changing with the biorefinery concepts Growing interest and developments taking place in the market well positioned to be a frontrunner here 88

117 Consumer Board Sales growth continues Q3 y-o-y Sales increased slightly to record-high Q3 of 648 MEUR Increased volumes and first price increases visible Supported by the ramp-up of Beihai Mill operations Operational EBIT decreased 36 MEUR to 50 MEUR Significantly higher variable costs, especially for pulp, chemicals and wood were only partly offset by improved sales prices and fixed costs management Operational ROOC declined to 10.3% Successful rebuild of a machine at Imatra Mills in Finland for industrial production of MFC for barrier film production. Ramp-up will start during Q4. 117

118 Packaging Solutions Another all-time high quarter Q3 y-o-y Sales +4% to record high Q3 of 330 MEUR Continued active sales mix management supported by continued good price development in European operations Operational EBIT increased another 20 MEUR to an all-time high of 68 MEUR Strong financial performance partly offset by lower deliveries and higher raw material costs for corrugated units Operational ROOC also hit an all-time high level of 30.4% and clearly above the strategic target of 20% 9 MEUR investment to upgrade and expand the corrugated packaging plant in Riga, Latvia 118

122 Outlook for Q Compared to Q Sales are estimated to be slightly higher than the amount of MEUR recorded in Q3/2018 Operational EBIT is expected to be in line with or somewhat lower than the 358 MEUR recorded in Q3/2018 A negative 10 MEUR impact on operational EBIT is expected due to production restrictions at uncoated fine paper mill in Nymölla, Sweden. This is because water at a near by lake, which supplies water for the mill operations, is at too low level. The impact of annual maintenance shutdowns is expected to be similar to Q3/2018. These impacts are included in the above outlook.
