Salcomp’s Disclosure Policy

Communications principles and targets

The parent company of Salcomp Group is Salcomp Plc, domicile in Salo, Finland. Salcomp’s shares are listed on the NASDAQ OMX in Helsinki. Salcomp complies in its communications with the Finnish legislation, as well as regulations given by NASDAQ OMX and the Finnish Financial Supervision.

The target of Salcomp’s communication is to support the company’s business by providing all stakeholders with relevant information about the company’s goals and operations. The general communications principles at Salcomp are reliability, openness, pro-activeness and consistency. No comments are made on confidential or unfinished business.

Salcomp provides all capital market participants regularly and equally with correct, sufficient and up-to-date information as a basis for the formation of Salcomp’s share price.

Information to be disclosed

Salcomp publishes, without undue delay by a stock exchange release, all information which is likely to have material effect on the value of the company share. The published information is reliable, extensive, timely and comparable.

In addition to stock exchange releases, other releases concerning events related to Salcomp’s business may be published that do not fulfill the criteria for a stock exchange release but are estimated to be newsworthy to stakeholders.

Salcomp publishes information about its financial situation according to a schedule announced in advance. The publication dates for the upcoming financial period are announced prior to the close of the previous financial period.

The company provides a written, well-reasoned assessment of the Group-level financial development of its business operations during the present financial period. In addition, Salcomp describes the major risks and uncertainties.

A profit warning is released if the company estimates that the development of its financial position during the present financial year has significantly changed compared with the earlier releases. The change estimate is based on a previously published forecast by Salcomp, as well as on the present market situation.

Responsibilities and spokespersons

The authority to make public statements on behalf of Salcomp lies with the CEO, other members of the Management Team and Corporate Communications, as well as persons authorized separately on a case by case basis. Heads of the factories in different countries or employees authorized by them have the right to make statements related to their operations.

Investor Relations

Salcomp actively meets capital market and media representatives. The CEO, CFO, Corporate Communications or persons authorized by them are in charge of the investor and media contacts.

The target of those meetings is to provide background information about Salcomp and its business environment. Discussions are based on information previously published by Salcomp or on information generally available on the market. New information that may have an impact on the company’s share value is not introduced at the meetings. Therefore, the material is not published separately on the company web pages.

Silent period

Salcomp has defined a silent period which covers the 2 weeks preceding the publication of its full year and interim results. During this time, Salcomp does not meet with capital market representatives.

Channels and distribution of the releases

All stock exchange releases are published in Finnish and English through NASDAQ OMX in Helsinki. Stock exchange releases are also distributed to the main media and published on the company web pages.

Communications in exceptional situations

In exceptional situations, the CEO, the Corporate Communications, and employees authorized in specific cases, are in charge of the communications.

Rumors and market speculations

Salcomp’s main rule is not to comment on public rumors, share price development, actions of competitors or customers or analyst estimates, unless it is essential in order to correct relevant or erroneous information.

Salcomp’s Board of Directors has approved the Disclosure Policy in October 2008.
