Summary of the second quarter of 2015
• Fortum’s results continued to be pressured by low electricity prices
• The second quarter was characterised by among the highest precipitation in recent
history, which resulted in high and partly must-run hydro power production
• Swedish electricity distribution business divestment completed the whole Distribution
sale
• The negotiations on Russian TGC-1 restructuring did not come to conclusions; Fortum
was unable to commit to the Finnish Fennovoima nuclear power project by the end of
June
– Should the negotiations proceed later, and depending on the conditions of the construction
license decision by the Finnish Government, Fortum would still be ready to participate with a
minority share of maximum 15% on the same terms and conditions as the other Finnish
companies currently participating

Market conditions in the second quarter of 2015
Nordic countries
• Power consumption in the Nordic countries at the same level as in Q2 2014
• The precipitation was among the highest recorded this century in Norway and
Sweden. In addition, by the end of the second quarter, large amounts of the
precipitation still remained as snow in Norway, because of the delayed snow melt
• Nordic system spot prices approximately EUR 5 per MWh lower than in Q2 2014,
while Finnish and Swedish area prices EUR 9-11 per MWh lower
European business environment and carbon market
• In May, a compromise was reached on the market stability reserve (MSR) of the
EU emissions trading system. In July, the Commission published a proposal to
revise the Emissions Trading Directive
Russia
• Power consumption in Fortum’s operating areas was on the same level as in Q2
2014

Outlook
Outlook
Nordic markets
• Fortum continues to expect that the average annual electricity demand
growth will be on average approximately 0.5% in the coming years
• Electricity is expected to continue to gain share of total energy consumption
Russia
• The run-rate operating profit (EBIT) level for the Russia Segment, RUB 18.2
billion, is targeted to be reached during 2015, but the euro result level will be
volatile, due to the translation effect
Key drivers and risks
• Economic
• Political
• Currency
• Wholesale price of electricity and volumes
• demand and supply • fuels
• hydrological situation • power plant availability
• CO2 emissions allowance prices
24
Outlook
Annual capex estimate, excluding potential acquisitions
• 2015 approximately EUR 0.8 billion
Hedging
• Rest of 2015 approx. 45% hedge ratio at approx. EUR 41/MWh
• 2016 approx. 25% hedge ratio at approx. EUR 35/MWh
Taxation
• Effective tax rate for 2015 for the Group 19-21%
• The Swedish Parliament decided to approve the proposed tax increase
of 17% on installed nuclear capacity. The tax will be implemented as of
1 August 2015. The estimated impact on Fortum is approximately EUR
15 million annually, albeit corporate tax-deductable
