Proposed dividend: EUR 0.21 per share                 +62%                      

“The year 2007 was an excellent one for Etteplan in terms of both revenue and   
the increase in the result. I am especially satisfied with the expansion of our 
growth into new areas of competence and service. The development of Etteplan's  
business operations shows that our competitiveness has improved. It corresponds 
to our long-term goal, according to which we will continue to grow profitably by
offering ever larger competence entities for the product and production         
processes of our customers,” says Matti Hyytiäinen, CEO of Etteplan.            

Revenue and result                                                              

The Etteplan Group's revenue in continuing operations showed a noticeable       
increase from the previous year's figure, rising by 28.2% to EUR 125.2 million  
(EUR 97.6 million in 2006). The increase was based on both acquisitions and     
organic growth, with organic growth accounting for 16.6%. The result for the    
last quarter was burdened by the strike of the Federation of Professional and   
Managerial Staff (YTN).                                                         

Operating profit totaled EUR 11.6 million (EUR 6.7 million), representing 9.3%  
of revenue (6.9%). The company's operating profit grew by 72.3% from the        
previous year's level. Profit for the 2007 financial year before taxes was EUR  
11.4 million (EUR 6.6 million). Taxes came to EUR 3.0 million (EUR 2.1 million).
The effective tax rate came to 26.6% (31.0%). Tax-exempt capital gains from the 
divestment of NATLABS Oy shares in the first quarter of the year lowered the tax
rate for the financial year. The net profit for the financial year was EUR 7.8  
million (EUR 4.2 million).                                                      

Earnings per share were EUR 0.40 (EUR 0.21), and equity per share was EUR 1.44  
(EUR 1.16). The return on investment increased to 30.4% (24.3%) and the return  
on equity to 31.7% (20.6%).                                                     

Business operations                                                             

Etteplan operates as a partner to large and medium-sized internationally        
operating industrial companies, providing high-quality services for the product 
development and production processes of its customers and a wide range of       
technical information solutions. The Group's service offering is divided into   
two segments: Delivery Design and Product Development.                          

The Delivery Design segment provides a wide range of design services as well as 
associated commissioning, site supervision, and training services, along with   
product information content production services for the design of production    
facilities and their machinery and equipment. The Product Development segment

as well as services for product information content production. The services are
based on long-term partnerships with customers and are aimed at guaranteeing the
customer's competitiveness in the future.                                       

The company's customer base comprises equipment manufacturers and end users in  
the automotive, aerospace, process, defense equipment, lifting and hoisting,

Major events in 2007                                                            

In January, Etteplan acquired the entire share capital of LCA Engineering Oy    
from Kouvola. Established in 1993, the company provides process and factory     
design services for industrial companies' investments and to machine and        
equipment suppliers, especially in the wood-processing industry. The acquisition
was detailed in a stock exchange release dated 10 January 2007.                 

In March, Etteplan concluded an agreement with Intertek for ever broader        
cooperation. As part of the agreement, the share capital, the operations, and   
all personnel of Etteplan subsidiary NATLABS Oy were assigned to Intertek. As a 
result of the cooperation, Etteplan can provide its customers with not only     
design but also acceptance and testing services by taking advantage of the      
global network of Intertek. On 13 March 2007, the company published a release   
concerning the expansion of cooperation.                                        

In March Etteplan Oyj's Annual General Meeting passed a resolution on a motion  
by the Board of Directors to pay a dividend for the year 2006 of EUR 0.26       
per share. It also granted the Board of Directors authorization to decide on an 
issue of no more than 4,000,000 shares with a share issue or by granting option 
rights or other specific rights giving entitlement to shares, and to decide to  
buy back own shares in one or several lots with non-restricted equity. The      
resolutions of the Annual General Meeting have been detailed in a stock exchange
release dated 29 March 2007.                                                    

In July, Etteplan Oyj agreed upon the acquisition of a majority stake in the    
Swedish Gesab AB. Established in 1985, Gesab AB primarily provides product      
development and production technology services for the automotive, aerospace,   
and household appliance industries. The acquisition supports Etteplan's growth  
strategy and further reinforces the Group's competence and market position,     
particularly as a supplier to the automotive and aerospace industries. The      
acquisition was detailed in a stock exchange release dated 4 July 2007.         

In September, Etteplan Oyj acquired the entire share capital of Gesab AB in     
accordance with an agreement signed in July. The acquisition was made public in 
a stock exchange release dated 3 September 2007.                                

An extraordinary general meeting was held in Lahti on 21 September 2007. This   
meeting passed all motions made by the Board of Directors: to amend the Articles
of Association, perform a share issue free of charge, and increase the share    
capital by means of a reserve increase. The resolutions of the extraordinary    
general meeting were detailed in a stock exchange release dated 21 September    
2007.                                                                           

The free-of-charge share issue and the reserve increase decided upon at Etteplan
Oyj's extraordinary general meeting were implemented on 26 September 2007. Both 
were detailed in a stock exchange release on the same day.                      

In October, the Board of Directors of Etteplan Oyj appointed Matti Hyytiäinen,  
M.Sc. (Econ.), as the company's new President and CEO, to take office on 1      
January 2008. The long-time CEO, Heikki Hornborg, was appointed as the chairman 
of the Etteplan Oyj Board of Directors, to serve from 1 January 2008. Tapani    
Mönkkönen, the previous chairman, will continue as a Board member and serve as  
the vice-chairman of the Board of Directors from that date. The appointments    
were detailed in a stock exchange release dated 8 October 2007.                 

Also in October, Etteplan agreed upon the acquisition of a majority stake in    
Lutab Professor Sten Luthander Ingenjörsbyrå AB. The acquisition was finalized  
in January 2008. Established in 1961, the Swedish company provides high-quality 
industrial technology services mainly to the aerospace, defense equipment,      
vehicular and transport, and electronics and power transmission industries. The 
acquisition was detailed in a investor release on 26 October 2007.        

In November, Etteplan revised its international business operations model. 
The company decided to change the St. Petersburg representative's office into
a subsidiary and to start reorganizing operations in Central Europe. As part 
of the renewal, the loss-making operations in Germany were closed down. The 
reorganizations were detailed in a release for investors on 26 October 2007.
The German business is treated as closed-down operations in the financial 
statements.

Personnel                                                                       

The Etteplan Group's operations and number of personnel have grown steadily. 
In the 2007 financial year, the Group employed an average of 1,895 people 
(1,501), an increase of 26.3%. At the end of the period, on 31 December 2007, 
the payroll numbered 1,949 employees (1,586). Increases in staff numbers were 
due to active recruitment and the business operations transferred to the Group; 
these employees are almost solely assigned to implementation of customer 
projects. At the end of the period, the Group employed 1,034 people in Finland,
860 in Sweden, and 55 in other countries.

Capital expenditures                                                            

The Group's total capital expenditure amounted to EUR 13.2 million (EUR 12.5    
million). The largest single investments were the acquisition of the entire     
share capital of LCA Engineering Oy, of the minority shares outstanding in      
ProTang AB, and of the entire share capital of Gesab AB. Other capital          
expenditures were earmarked for the implementation and development of business  
operations.                                                                     

Estimate of operating risks and uncertainty factors                             

Risks related to the Etteplan Group's business operations are divided into      
external and internal risks, and the risks are monitored according to this      
classification.                                                                 

External risks                                                                  

External risks include risks concerning economic development on the whole and   
unpredictable changes in customers' order backlog, which is classified as the   
greatest risk in the company's business operations.                             

Internal risks                                                                  

Internal risks include strategic and operating risks, as well as financing      
risks.                                                                          

Etteplan's most significant strategic risks relate to development of business   
operations - in other words, acquisitions. The company aims to manage these     
risks by complying with its acquisitions policy and with procedures and models  
that have been prepared on the basis of this policy. In addition to             
acquisitions, organic growth is an important part of the growth objectives for  
Etteplan's business.                                                            

Etteplan's biggest operating risks are related to commissions and personnel. The
company's commissions include a risk of services or performances including a    
professional error, omissions, or other negligence that could cause significant 
financial or other damage. In order to contain operating risks, the company     
applies the following procedures: compliance with quality management systems,   
codes of practice, and acceptance procedures; training of personnel; and        
compliance with instructions on management of quotes and contracts, particularly
in delimitation of contractual liability. The company has a liability insurance 
program that encompasses the entire Group. However, insurance does not cover all
insurance risk. The company's business is based on professional personnel.      
Availability of competent professionals is an important factor in ensuring      
profitable growth and continued high-quality business operations.               

Reviews concerning financing risks are presented in the notes to the financial  
statements.                                                                     

Financial position                                                              

Total year-end assets showed an increase by 31.2% to EUR 72.4 million on 
31 December 2007 (EUR 55.2 million for 2006). Balance sheet goodwill rose to 
EUR 28.8 million (EUR 18.6 million). The Group's cash and cash equivalents 
totaled EUR 7.2 million (EUR 6.2 million). The Group's interest-bearing 
liabilities increased as a result of acquisitions and stood at EUR 14.8 million 
(EUR 10.8 million) at period end. The equity ratio was 40.7% (42.6%). 
Liquidity was good throughout the period.

Share issue authorizations, exercise of authorizations, and the option program  

The Annual General Meeting held on 29 March 2007 granted the Board of Directors 
the authorization to:                                                           

- decide upon an issue of no more than 4,000,000 shares with a share issue or by
granting option rights or other specific rights, as referred to in the Companies
Act's Chapter 10, Article 1, giving entitlement to shares in one or more lots.  
The authorization includes the right to decide to issue either new shares or own
shares held by the company. The authorization is valid for three years from the 
Annual General Meeting resolution - i.e., from 29 March 2007 through 
29 March 2010. 

- decide to acquire the company's own shares in one or more lots with the       
company's non-restricted equity. Acquisition of the company's own shares can be 
done in a proportion not representing the shareholders' share ownership; in     
other words, the Board of Directors may also decide on directed acquisition of  
the company's own shares. The authorization is valid for 18 months from the     
resolution of the Annual General Meeting (from 29 March 2007 through 
29 September 2008).

The authorizations granted to the Board of Directors at the Annual General      
Meeting of 29 March 2007 remain in effect insofar as they have not been         
exercised. These authorizations are detailed in their entirety in a stock       
exchange release dated 29 March 2007.                                           

The authorizations granted to the Board of Directors by the extraordinary       
general meeting of 21 September 2007 for a free share issue and a reserve       
increase were exercised during the 2007 financial year. These authorizations    
were detailed in their entirety in a 21 September 2007 stock exchange release.  

The company does not currently have a share option program.                     

Board of Directors, CEO, and auditors                                           

The members of the Etteplan Oyj Board of Directors during the period under      
review were Tapani Mönkkönen (Chairman), Tapio Hakakari, Heikki Hornborg, 
Pertti Nupponen, and Matti Virtaala. Board members Tapio Hakakari, 
Pertti Nupponen, and Matti Virtaala were independent of the company in 2007.

The company's auditor was PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy, a firm of authorized 
public accountants, with Mika Kaarisalo, APA, acting as chief auditor.

Since 1 January 2006, the company has been following the amended Insider        
Guidelines issued by the Helsinki Stock Exchange. Etteplan's statutory 
insiders include the members of the Board of Directors, the CEO, the 
Executive Vice President, and the auditor. Furthermore, the members of 
the Management Group are regarded as Etteplan's public insiders. 

Proposal for distribution of profits                                            

The parent company's distributable shareholders' equity according to the 
balance sheet as of 31 December 2007 is EUR 14.3 million.

The Board of Directors is proposing to the Annual General Meeting, which will   
convene on 28 March 2008, that on the dividend payout date a dividend of 
EUR 0.21 per share be paid on the company's externally owned shares and that
the remainder be transferred to retained earnings. In accordance with the
Board's proposal, the record date for the dividend payout is 2 April 2008 
and the dividend will be paid on 9 April 2008.

No substantial changes to the company's financial position have occurred since  
the end of the 2007 financial year. The company's liquidity is good, and, in the
view of the Board of Directors, the proposed dividend payout does not jeopardize
the company's solvency.                                                         

Major events after the year under review                                        

At the beginning of the year, Matti Hyytiäinen, M.Sc. (Econ.), took up the      
office of President and CEO of Etteplan, and the company's long-time CEO Heikki 
Hornborg became the chairman of the Etteplan Board of Directors.                

In January, the company finalized the acquisition of a majority holding in the  
Swedish Lutab Professor Sten Luthander Ingenjörsbyrå AB in accordance with the  
agreement concluded in October 2007.                                            

Also in January, Etteplan acquired the entire share capital of Cool Engineering 
AB. This Swedish company, established in 1989, provides testing and analysis    
services for the automotive industry, in particular. The company's special      
competencies include, e.g., automotive exhaust and air-conditioning systems,    
complementing Etteplan's extensive expertise in the automotive industry.        

Etteplan Oyj continued its investment in technical information services in      
January by increasing its ownership in Etteplan Technical Information Oy from   
70% to a full 100%.                                                             

Outlook for the future                                                          

The business outlook for Etteplan's customers is positive. Demand for products  
in the mining industry, energy and power transmission sector, aerospace         
industry, and mechanical engineering industry is expected to remain good. While 
the demand for heavy-duty vehicles and trucks also is anticipated to remain     
solid, the outlook for demand for passenger cars is more uncertain. On this     
basis of these projections, Etteplan appears to have the prerequisites for

The accounting policy and method of presentation for the key figures are the    
same as for the 2006 financial statements. The key figures have been prepared

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT BULLETIN                                       

General                                                                         

The parent company of the Etteplan Group is Etteplan Oyj, a Finnish public      
limited company established under Finnish law. It is domiciled in Hollola, and  
its shares are listed on the Nordic Exchange list.                              

Etteplan Oyj and its subsidiaries provide high-quality industrial technology    
design services. The business is divided into two segments: Product Development 
and Delivery Design. The Other Operations segment consists of administration.   
The Group's main market area is Europe. For our core customers, Etteplan service
extends worldwide.                                                              

A copy of the consolidated financial statements can be obtained from our Web    
site at www.etteplan.com or from the head office of the Group's parent company, 
at Terveystie 18, 15860 Hollola, Finland.                                       

At its meeting on 13 February 2008, the Etteplan Oyj Board of Directors approved
the financial statement bulletin for publication.                               

Basis for preparation                                                           

This financial statement bulletin has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34   
Interim Financial Reporting and the preparation and accounting policies         
presented in the 2006 annual financial statements.                              

Monetary figures in the financial statements' tables are presented in thousands 
of euros. All figures in these tables have been rounded up or down, due to which
the sums of figures may deviate from the sum totals presented.                  

New standards, amendments, and interpretations became effective at the beginning
of the 2007 financial year. On 1 January 2007, the Group adopted IFRS 7         
Financial Instruments: Disclosures as well as the amendment to IAS 1 concerning 
disclosures about capital.                                                      
The adoption of both IFRS 7 and the amendments to IAS 1 mainly affects          
disclosures in the notes to the Group's annual financial statements. It is the  
view of the company's management that the other standards and interpretations   
that came into force at the start of the year do not have an effect on the      
Group's financial statement.                                                    

Use of estimates                                                                

This financial statement bulletin includes forward-looking estimates and        
assumptions. Accordingly, outcomes may deviate from these estimates, which are  
based on the management's current best knowledge.

10. On 10 January 2007, the Group acquired a 100% holding in LCA Engineering Oy,
a company that provides design services. Company agreements and customer        
relationships are not recognized as assets in connection with this acquisition, 
since the customer agreements are non-binding outline agreements by nature and  
therefore cannot be separated or sold as such. In the opinion of Etteplan Oyj's 
management, the cost of acquisition exceeding the net assets of the acquired    
company is goodwill since it is related to the competence of the management and 
personnel of the acquired company, its market position, and the operational     
synergies sought.

11. On 11 June 2007, the Group acquired a minority shareholder's 26.84% stake in
Etteplan Industry AB (formerly ProTang AB). With this acquisition, Etteplan Oyj 
now has a 100% holding in the company. Goodwill of EUR 1,641 thousand for the   
acquisition was recognized on the balance sheet.                                

3. On 3 September 2007, the Group acquired a 100% holding in Gesab AB, a company
providing consulting services for industry. Company agreements and customer     
relationships are not recognized as assets in connection with this acquisition, 
since the customer agreements are non-binding outline agreements by nature and  
therefore cannot be separated or sold as such. It is the Etteplan Oyj           
management's opinion that the cost of acquisition exceeding the net assets of   
the acquired company is goodwill since it is related to the competence of the   
management and other personnel of the acquired company, its market position, and
the synergies of operations that are sought.                                    


Details of the net assets acquired and the goodwill are as follows:

The operating profit figure in this financial statement bulletin includes EUR   
839 thousand in proceeds from the divestment of Etteplan subsidiary Natlabs Oy. 
It has been recorded as a non-recurring item under other operating income. The  
German business is classed in the closed-down operations category in the        
financial statements.

The taxes listed in the consolidated income statement have been calculated using
the tax rate appropriate for the forecast full-year result. The estimated       
average effective tax rate for the year has been set separately for each
