The January-June result improved by EUR 25 million compared to 2013 and it is the best January-June result for eight years as well. The prudent actions taken in turning the Company into such strong performance have continued i.e. optimization of vessels, routes and trade flows; reduction of interest bearing debt through improved cash flow generation; cutting of the overcapacity through the sale of certain vessels, which enabled the better optimization of existing tonnage; efficient cost controlling and cost cutting. Finnlines is fighting successfully against the cycle, but we have to analyse every line, every vessel, every function and every cost item whether there is room for further lowering of costs and therefore room for further improvement. It is clear that the Company cannot afford to have loss-making services, routes nor vessels and therefore will find solutions for restoring profitability in all operations throughout the Group. Finnlines is well prepared for the year 2015's sulphur directive with its capital expenditure programmes which puts our fleet in the Baltic in the most competitive position. With the joint effort for making the Group even more profitable through the present market situation, we can calmly state that we expect the Group's result before taxes to improve compared to previous year.' FINNLINES PLC, INTERIM REPORT JANUARY-JUNE 2014 (unaudited) FINNLINES' BUSINESS Finnlines is one of the largest North-European liner shipping companies, providing sea transport services mainly in the Baltic and the North Sea. Finnlines' passenger-freight vessels offer services from Finland to Germany and Sweden, from Sweden via the Åland Islands to Finland and Germany and from Germany to Russia. The Company has subsidiaries in Germany, Belgium, Great Britain, Sweden, Denmark and Poland which all are also sales offices. In addition to sea transportation, the Company provides port services in Helsinki and Turku. GROUP STRUCTURE Finnlines Plc is a Finnish listed company. At the end of the reporting period, the Group consisted of the parent company and 25 subsidiaries. Finnlines is part of the Italian Grimaldi Group, which is a global logistics group specialising in maritime transport of cars, rolling cargo, containers and passengers. The Grimaldi Group comprises seven shipping companies, including Finnlines, Atlantic Container Line (ACL), Malta Motorways of the Sea (MMS) and Minoan Lines. With a fleet of about 100 vessels, the Group provides maritime transport services for rolling cargo and containers between North Europe, the Mediterranean, the Baltic Sea, West Africa, North and South America. It also offers passenger services within the Mediterranean and Baltic Sea. With 77.40 per cent (on 30 June 2014) of the shares, the Grimaldi Group is the biggest shareholder in Finnlines Plc. GENERAL MARKET DEVELOPMENT Based on the statistics by the Finnish Transport Agency for January-May, the Finnish seaborne imports carried in container, lorry and trailer units remained at the same level as in 2013 whereas exports increased by 5 per cent (measured in tons) compared to the same period in 2013. According to the statistics published by Shippax for January-May, trailer and lorry volumes transported by sea between Southern Sweden and Germany increased by 2 per cent compared to 2013. During the same period private and commercial passenger traffic between Finland and Sweden decreased by 5 per cent. Between Finland and Germany the corresponding traffic also decreased by 14 per cent (Finnish Transport Agency). FINNLINES' TRAFFIC During the first two quarters Finnlines operated on average 24 (23) vessels in its own traffic. In June, Finnlines doubled the departures to Långnäs, Åland. This schedule is planned to last for the summer season. The cargo volumes transported during January-June totalled approximately 325 (320 in 2013) thousand cargo units, 39 (30) thousand cars (not including passengers' cars) and 1,194 (1,070) thousand tons of freight not possible to measure in units. In addition, some 265 (264) thousand private and commercial passengers were transported. FINANCIAL RESULTS January-June 2014 The Finnlines Group recorded revenue totalling EUR 270.1 (283.6) million, a decrease of 4.8 per cent compared to the same period in 2013. Shipping and Sea Transport Services generated revenue amounting to EUR 261.9 (269.6) million and Port Operations EUR 20.2 (27.1) million. The internal revenue between the segments was EUR 12.0 (13.1) million. Result before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) was EUR 54.6 (34.9) million, an increase of 56.4 per cent. Result before interest and taxes (EBIT) was EUR 25.3 (1.0) million. The increased efficiency of the operations in terms of bunker consumption, higher capacity utilisation of vessels and reduction of costs in many areas has continued to impact the financial performance of the Group. Net financial expenses decreased and were EUR -11.5 (-12.7) million. Financial income was EUR 0.2 (0.2) million and financial expenses EUR -11.7 (-12.9) million. The above mentioned increased operational efficiency, decreased net financial expenses, and moreover, cutting of the vessel overcapacity by selling three vessels in the end of 2013, which enabled better optimization of the existing tonnage, altogether contributed to a EUR 25 million increase in the result for the reporting period. The result for January-June was EUR 15.0 (-10.0) million and earnings per share (EPS) were EUR 0.29 (-0.21). April-June 2014 The Finnlines Group recorded revenue totalling EUR 143.3 (149.7) million, a decrease of 4.3 per cent compared to the same period in 2013. Shipping and Sea Transport Services generated revenue amounting to EUR 139.1 (143.6) million and Port Operations EUR 10.1 (12.8) million. The internal revenue between the segments was EUR -5.9 (6.7) million. Compared to the first quarter the cargo volumes and the amount of passengers have increased due to the seasonality of the trade. Result before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) was EUR 34.4 (23.8) million, an increase of 44.6 per cent. Result before interest and taxes (EBIT) was EUR 19.8 (6.9) million. Net financial expenses were EUR -5.7 (-6.5) million. Financial income was EUR 0.1 (0.1) million and financial expenses totalled EUR -5.8 (-6.6) million. The result for April-June was EUR 14.7 (0.9) million which is the best quarter ever in eight years. Earnings per share (EPS) rose to EUR 0.29 (0.02). STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION, FINANCING AND CASH-FLOW Interest-bearing debt decreased by EUR 179.8 million and amounted to EUR 642.5 (822.4) million. The equity ratio calculated from the balance sheet improved to 37.2 (30.8) per cent and gearing dropped to 138.0 (187.9) per cent. Vessel lease commitments decreased by EUR 3.1 million to EUR 17.7 million compared to the end of June 2013. At the end of the period, cash and deposits together with unused committed working capital credits amounted to EUR 65.1 (48.3) million. Net cash generated from operating activities after investing activities improved markedly and was EUR 31.0 (10.6) million. CAPITAL EXPENDITURE Finnlines Group's gross capital expenditure in the reporting period totalled EUR 6.3 (3.7) million including tangible and intangible assets. Total depreciation amounted to EUR 29.3 (33.8) million. The capital expenditures consist of normal replacement costs of fixed assets, prepayments of scrubber and re-blading projects and dry-docking cost of ships. Due to the new stringent sulphur oxide emission regulations to be enforced 1 January 2015, Finnlines has ordered exhaust gas cleaning systems for six of its latest series of ro-ro vessels built 2011-2012 and for four of its ro-ro vessels built 2000-2002 in the second quarter. These investments are part of the 2014 capex programmes. The scrubber systems will be installed during the end of 2014 and the beginning of 2015. By selecting these scrubber systems, the vessels will be able to operate in compliance with the new environmental regulations while continuing to operate on heavy fuel oil. At the same time, Finnlines has ordered an improvement retrofit to the propulsion system to be installed on four Star-class ro-pax vessels. At the end of June, Finnlines ordered the same type of improvement retrofit to the propulsion systems of MS Finnmill and MS Finnpulp. These re-blading projects will be done during the turn of the year. This new propeller and rudder system improves substantially the vessels' relative propulsion efficiency and as a result, the vessels achieve a reduction in fuel consumption. PERSONNEL The Group employed an average of 1,731 (1,894) persons during the period, consisting of 800 (933) persons on shore and 931 (961) persons at sea. The average number of shore personnel decreased mostly due to employee reductions in Port Operations. The number of persons employed at the end of the period were 1,823 (1,944) in total, of which 789 (956) on shore and 1,034 (988) at sea. The personnel expenses (including social costs) for the reporting period were EUR -47.2 (-54.5) million. THE FINNLINES SHARE The Company's registered share capital on 30 June 2014 was EUR 103,006,282 divided into 51,503,141 shares. A total of 3.6 (0.4) million shares were traded on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki during the period. The market capitalisation of the Company's stock at the end of June was EUR 527.4 (316.7) million. Earnings per share (EPS) were EUR 0.29 (-0.21). Shareholders' equity per share was EUR 9.27 (8.67). At the end of the reporting period, the Grimaldi Group's holding and share of votes in Finnlines was 77.40 per cent. RISKS AND RISK MANAGEMENT Finnlines is exposed to business risks that arise from capacity of the fleet existing in the market, counterparties, prospects for export and import of goods, and changes in the operating environment. The risk of overcapacity is reduced when the aging fleet is scrapped, on the one hand, and when more stringent sulphur directive requirements come into force, on the other. Finnlines operates mainly in the Emissions Control Areas where the emission regulations are stricter than globally. The sulphur content limit for heavy fuel oil will decrease to 0.1 per cent in 2015 in accordance with the MARPOL Convention. This brings a risk of increased costs in sea transportation. But considering that Finnlines has one of the youngest and largest fleet in Northern Europe, and the Company is doing targeted investment on engine systems and energy efficiency, the Company is in the strong position to greatly mitigate this risk. The effect of fluctuations in the foreign trade is reduced by the fact that the Company operates in several geographical areas. This means that slow growth in one country is compensated by faster recovery in another. Finnlines continuously monitors the solidity and payment schedules of its customers and suppliers. Currently, there are no indications of risks related to counterparties and Finnlines continues to monitor the financial position of its counterparties. Finnlines holds adequate credit lines to maintain liquidity in the current business environment. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The 2013 Financial statements, published in 27 February 2014, contain a description of ongoing legal proceedings. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Finnlines applies the Finnish Corporate Governance Code for listed companies. The Corporate Governance Statement can be reviewed on the corporate website: www.finnlines.com. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD There are no significant events to report. OUTLOOK AND OPERATING ENVIRONMENT The Finnlines Group's result before taxes is expected to continue to be better for the remaining part of 2014 than in the corresponding period in previous year due to several reasons: certain vessels have been sold to cut overcapacity, the number of personnel has been reduced, changes in fleet/routes have increased operational efficiency, fuel consumption has been reduced, overall productivity has been increased, and the interest bearing debt has been reduced. The third interim report of 2014 for the period of 1 January-30 September will be published on Thursday, 6 November 2014.

Main media This interim report is unaudited. REPORTING AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES This interim report included herein is prepared in accordance with IAS 34 (Interim Financial Reporting) standard. The Company has adopted new or revised IFRS standards and IFRIC interpretations from the beginning of the reporting period corresponding to those described in the 2013 Financial Statements with effect of 1 January 2014. These new or revised standards have not had an effect on the reported figures. Finnlines Plc entered into the tonnage taxation regime in January 2013. In tonnage taxation, shipping operations transferred from taxation of business income to tonnage-based taxation. In other respects, the same accounting policies have been applied as in the previous annual financial statements. All figures in the accounts have been rounded and, consequently, the sum of individual figures may deviate from the presented sum figure. The preparation of the interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions and use its discretion in applying the accounting principles that affect the valuation of the reported assets and liabilities and other information such as contingent liabilities and the recognition of income and expenses in the income statement. Although the estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may differ from the estimates. The uncertainties related to the key assumptions were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements at the year-end 31 December 2013.
