For the first time, our sales exceeded two billion euros. We also managed to improve our profitability in line with our long term targets. Despite the sluggish world economy, the demand for our technologies and services continued solid throughout the year and our sales grew faster than the market. Our customers' investment decisions are increasingly driven by environmental and energy efficiency factors, which boosted the demand for our advanced technologies. Environmental Goods and Services accounted for approximately 89% of our 2012 order intake (by OECD criteria), consisting of sustainable solutions for minerals and metals processing and environmental solutions including gas cleaning, sulfuric acid, alternative and renewable energy. The growth in our minerals and metals processing solutions continued strong with new breakthroughs. The most significant and the largest single order in Outotec's history was the turn-key ilmenite smelter delivery to Cristal Global in Saudi Arabia. Our non-ferrous solutions business progressed strongly on all fronts. In the environmental solutions business, we made very good progress especially in waste-to-energy and industrial water treatment business and received several orders. We successfully continued to grow our services business both organically and through acquisitions, and we expanded our life cycle services offering. I am especially delighted with the long term operation and maintenance contract with the Russian Copper Company's Mikheevsky concentrator (published in January 2013), and I strongly believe that this type of service solutions leveraging our unique competence in process technology offers considerable growth opportunities for us in the future. We launched our current operational model and strategy in 2010 as a platform for sustainable growth. These initiatives have been very successful, delivering strong profitable growth even beyond our own expectations. I would like to thank our employees for their great spirit, dedication, and the great results. In addition to a good financial result, their commitment was demonstrated in the high participation rate of 34% in Outotec's Employee Share Savings Plan launched in the fourth quarter of 2012. The mood in the world economy has somewhat improved during the past few months but the positive trend is still fragile. Uncertainty in the market may delay our customers' decisions to invest in new production capacity, impacting our order intake development going forward. We believe that environmental investments will further increase as governments are paying more and more attention to the necessity of sustainable development, also in developing markets. Our strong order backlog gives us a good start in 2013, and we believe that there are plenty of growth opportunities for all our business areas. Sales growth in 2013 is forecasted to be moderate due to only slightly higher order intake in 2012 compared to previous year. We plan to continue to boost our growth through acquisitions, in addition to organic development. Since 2010 we have acquired and successfully integrated 12 companies, four of these in 2012. Besides growth, we plan to improve further our profitability and develop our operations in line with our strategy. Our mission is "Sustainable use of Earth's natural resources" and we will continue our work towards this also in 2013."

The long term outlook for metals demand continued to be positive, driving investments to new capacity especially in non-ferrous metals value chain. Some mining companies announced revised investment plans mainly in the areas of iron ore and coal. Towards year-end base metal prices in particular strengthened and strong recovery was seen also in iron ore prices. In addition to greenfield investments, customers continued to seek additional operational improvements through the expansion and modernization of existing processing capacity. Market activity continued to be high in copper, gold, sulfuric acid, and aluminum markets but zinc, nickel, and platinum group metals markets were more subdued. In general, Outotec's project deliveries progressed well. Customers' production capacity utilization rates stayed high, supporting Outotec's spare parts and services sales. In addition, there was strong demand for operation and maintenance as well as shut down services due to Outotec's special capabilities in these areas. The competitive landscape remained relatively unchanged with some industry consolidation. Despite continued macro-economic uncertainties, investment financing for solid projects continued to be available. However, local legislation, tighter environmental permitting and the complexity of financing packages slowed sales negotiations in some projects. In alternative energy solutions, low energy prices and uncertainties in political regulation impacted investment decisions in some countries.

At the end of 2012, Outotec had 38 projects with an order backlog value in excess of EUR 10 million, accounting for 70% of the total backlog. Based on the 2012 year-end project evaluation, management estimates that roughly 77% (approximately EUR 1,500 million) of the year-end order backlog value will be delivered in 2013 and the rest in 2014 and beyond. SALES AND FINANCIAL RESULT Outotec's sales in 2012 totaled EUR 2,087.4 million (2011: EUR 1,385.6 million), up 51% from the comparison period. The sales growth resulted from successful customer project deliveries from the strong opening order backlog and growth of services business. Recent acquisitions (Kiln Services, Energy Products of Idaho, Numcore, Demil, TME Group, and Backfill Specialists) accounted for approximately 5% of the total growth (2011: no impact). Foreign exchange rates did not have material effect on sales growth. Sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 totaled EUR 649.8 million (Q4/2011: EUR 496.8 million), up 31% from the comparison period. Sales in the Services business area, which is included in the sales figures of the three reporting segments, totaled EUR 476.0 million in 2012 (2011: EUR 343.5 million), up 39% from the comparison period and accounting for 23% of Outotec's sales (2011: 25%). Recent acquisitions (Kiln Services, TME Group and Demil) accounted for approximately 9% of the Services business area sales growth (2011: no impact). Services growth was achieved by further penetrating the old installed base and services delivered to the new installed base. In addition, demand for operation and maintenance as well as shutdown services grew in 2012. Sales in the Services business area in the fourth quarter of 2012 totaled EUR 184.1 million (Q4/2011: EUR 109.1 million), up 69% from the comparison period and accounting for 28% of Outotec's sales (Q4/2011: 22%). Operating profit from business operations in 2012 was EUR 193.8 million (2011: EUR 121.5 million), up 60% from the comparison period and representing 9.3% of sales (2011: 8.8%). The operating profit in 2012 was positively impacted by higher sales as well as successful project and service deliveries. The operating profit was negatively impacted by increased risk provisions in two customer projects. In 2012, the company also received less license fee income than in 2011. Unrealized and realized exchange gains related to currency forward contracts totaled EUR 2.1 million (2011: gain of EUR 1.7 million). Operating profit in 2012 was EUR 184.3 million (2011: EUR 111.9 million), representing 8.8% of sales (2011: 8.1% of sales). The total impact of PPA amortizations in 2012 was EUR 12.5 million (2011: EUR 4.9 million). The increase in the PPA amortizations resulted primarily from the Energy Products of Idaho (EPI) acquisition in December 2011. One-time items in 2012 totaled a gain of EUR 3.0 million (2011: cost of EUR 4.7 million) including acquisition related costs of EUR 2.7 million (2011: costs of EUR 2.0 million), restructuring related costs of EUR 0.6 million (2011: costs of EUR 2.6 million) and the positive impact of EUR 6.3 million reduction from EPI earn-out payment liability of EUR 8.8 million. Operating profit from business operations in the fourth quarter of 2012 was EUR 74.0 million (Q4/2011: EUR 54.9 million), representing 11.4% of sales (Q4/2011: 11.0%), and operating profit was EUR 74.9 million (Q4/2011: EUR 48.9 million), representing 11.5% of sales (Q4/2011: 9.9%).

The impact of PPA amortizations in the fourth quarter of 2012 operating profit was EUR 3.3 million (Q4/2011: EUR 1.3 million). Fixed costs in 2012 were EUR 254.7 million (2011: EUR 217.7 million) equivalent to 12% (2011: 16%) of sales. The cost increase was primarily due to expanding of the sales and marketing network, acquisitions, R&D activities as well as investments in developing and deploying the global operational model in line with the strategy. Profit before taxes in 2012 was EUR 179.7 million (2011: EUR 113.3 million). It included net finance expenses of EUR 4.6 million (2011: net finance income EUR 1.4 million) of which EUR 1.2 million was related to impairment of loan receivables from available-for-sale investments and EUR 2.6 million related to valuation of financial items and related hedges. Net profit for the reporting period was EUR 127.8 million (2011: EUR 79.3 million). Taxes totaled EUR 51.9 million (2011: EUR 34.0 million). Earnings per share were EUR 2.82 (2011: EUR 1.75), up 61% from the comparison period. Outotec's return on equity in 2012 was 29.0% (2011: 20.9%), and the return on investment was 36.5% (2011: 26.4%).

The SAG mill offers increased efficiency and up to 15% larger mill capacity with low energy consumption. Outotec and Sandvik Mining announced closer cooperation in minerals processing solutions. This enables Outotec to offer an entire processing plant, including crushing, grinding, and concentrating as well as process testing, design, basic engineering, and process guarantees (press release on Sep 24). Outotec received exclusive rights from Swiss Tower Mills Minerals Ltd to distribute and sell its Tower Mills (STM) grinding technology. High-intensity grinding mills marketed as Outotec® HIGmill bring a new option to the market, enabling Outotec to compete for the position of market leader in fine and ultra-fine grinding (press release on April 5). Outotec launched the world's largest flotation cell, the Outotec TankCell® e500. It has been designed for plants with high material throughputs, such as large copper and gold concentrators. Outotec offers the broadest size range of flotation cells on the market (from 5 m³ to 500 m³), which allows for a flexible layout with symmetrical design. The benefits include lower equipment costs and energy consumption, less installation work, and a smaller plant footprint. Fewer units per installation result in fewer components, spare parts, and less maintenance. Outotec launched the Outotec® Larox PF 180, the world's largest pressure filter. The PF 180 series are 50% larger than the previous model and lowering operating cost per ton. Ferrous Solutions Outotec has developed a new Outotec® EOS - Emission Optimized Sintering process for iron ore sintering. Besides iron ores, it can also be applied for sintering of manganese ore fines. The process reduces the substantial off-gas volume by 50-60% by re-circulating the off-gas and using its CO content as an energy source. As there are less off-gases, the off-gas cleaning investment and operational costs will be lower, and the consumption of coke used as energy can be cut by up to 20%, which significantly reduces dust and emissions. Outotec introduced an automated pallet car changer for iron ore sintering and pelletizing plants. The new solution increases plant productivity since no stoppage is necessary during the changing procedure. The automated process allows continuous change of multiple pallet cars. The solution can be applied both in new and brownfield sintering and pelletizing plants. Outotec has added Direct Current Furnaces to its ferroalloy smelting technology portfolio, and in partnership with Allied Furnace Consultants (AFC) based in South Africa, has developed and patented a new conductive anode design which will be installed in all new Outotec® Direct Current Smelting furnaces worldwide. Outotec has developed an ilmenite smelting process which applies Outotec's ferroalloy smelting technology. The new technology will be implemented in Cristal Global's mega size ilmenite smelter project in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (stock exchange release on May 31). The initial annual capacity of one of the world's largest ilmenite plants will be 500,000 tonnes of titanium dioxide slag, and 235,000 tonnes of high purity pig iron. Energy, Light Metals and Environmental Solutions Outotec has developed a patented clay calcination process to activate different clay minerals in a fluidized bed furnace. Depending on the quality requirements, solid fuels can also be used as an energy source for the reaction. In Outotec's trial plants, diverse samples can be produced for verification of the product quality. Clay calcination offers a significant reduction in carbon dioxide compared to the traditional clinker production process. The acquisition of Energy Products of Idaho has significantly improved Outotec's capabilities to offer biomass and waste-to-energy systems which can operate on over 200 different biomass fuels and fuel mixes. Covering the entire chain of converting different biomass materials into energy, our circulating and stationary fluidized bed systems allow utilization of a variety of fuel substances - from waste wood up to biomass sludge such as lignin sludge from bio-ethanol production. The new energy systems will be applied, for example, in the Karton 90 MW biomass power plant in Turkey (press release on Nov 16) and in the advanced sewage sludge thermal treatment plant in Zürich, Switzerland (press release on Nov 9). SUSTAINABILITY In October, Outotec was recognized for the fourth consecutive year in Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index. In September, Outotec hosted a seminar in Indonesia for customers, partners, ministries, industry associations, and academics on the implementation of a framework for sustainability in the Indonesian mining and metals processing industries. The seminar was organized jointly with the Indonesian Ministry of Environment. Outotec presented sustainable solutions and environmental considerations in minerals and metals processing as well as trends in environmental legislation in Europe. Outotec published its sustainability report for 2011 in April. The report is based on the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) guidelines and conforms to Application Level B+ and is third-party assured by Ecobio Ltd. In November, the report was awarded Readers' Choice in the competition evaluating the corporate responsibility reporting of the Finnish companies. PERSONNEL At the end of the reporting period, Outotec had a total of 4,805 employees (December 31, 2011: 3,883). New employees were primarily recruited for project deliveries and for the service business. Acquisitions increased personnel from the comparison period by 450. In 2012, Outotec had on average 4,456 employees (2011: 3,516). The average number of personnel grew by 940 compared to the previous year, which supports overall business growth objectives. Temporary personnel accounted for approximately 9% (2011: 9%) of the total number of employees. Distribution of personnel by region Dec 31, Dec 31, change 2012 2011 % EMEA (including CIS) 2,642 2,327 13.5 Americas 1,400 972 44.0 Asia Pacific 763 584 30.7 Total 4,805 3,883 23.7 At the end of the reporting period, the company had, in addition to its own personnel, approximately 660 (December 31, 2011: 620) full-time equivalent, contracted professionals working in project execution. The number of contracted workers at any given time changes with the active project mix and project commissioning, local legislation, and regulations as well as seasonal fluctuations. In 2012, salaries and other employee benefits totaled EUR 362.6 million (2011: EUR 284.4 million). The increase from the comparison period was due to the increase in personnel, wage inflation, and wage increases. CHANGES IN TOP MANAGEMENT In November, Outotec appointed Ms. Kirsi Nuotto, M.A., as Senior Vice President - Human Capital and member of the Executive Board as of January 9, 2013. Outotec's former SVP - Human Capital, Mr. Ari Jokilaakso, Ph.D. (Tech.), took up a new position in Outotec as Head of Research and Technology Development in the Non-ferrous Solutions business area.

The current Chairman of the Board of Directors Carl-Gustaf Bergström and Vice Chairman Karri Kaitue have given notification that they are no longer available for re-election at the Annual General Meeting of 2013. The Nomination Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to elect Matti Alahuhta as the Chairman of the Board of Directors for the term ending at the closure of the Annual General Meeting of 2014. All candidates have given their consent to the election. Remuneration of the Board of Directors Outotec's Nomination Board proposes further to the Annual General Meeting on March 26, 2013 that the members of the Board of Directors be paid the following annual remuneration: EUR 72,000 for the Chairman of the Board of Directors and EUR 36,000 for the other members of the Board of Directors each, as well as an additional EUR 12,000 for both the Vice Chairman of the Board, and the Chairman of the Audit Committee; and that the members of the Board each be paid EUR 600 for attendance at each board and committee meeting and are reimbursed for direct costs arising from board work. Of the annual remuneration, 60% would be paid in cash and 40% in the form of Outotec Oyj shares, which would be acquired to the members from the stock exchange, within one week upon the AGM 2013 date, in amounts corresponding to EUR 28,800 for the Chairman, EUR 19,200 for the Vice Chairman and Chairman of the Audit Committee each, and EUR 14,400 for each of the other members. The part of the annual fee payable in cash corresponds to the approximate sum necessary for the payment of the income taxes on the remunerations and would be paid no later than April 30, 2013. The annual fees shall encompass the full term of office of the Board of Directors. The attendance fee shall be paid in cash. SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES Risks related to the global operating environment Outotec's global business operations are subject to various political, economic, and social conditions. In the current economic environment, conditions may rapidly change and have a negative impact on the availability and conditions of financing for Outotec's customers as well as create delays and changes in order placement and execution. Outotec may operate in politically unstable countries where potential economic sanctions or trade restrictions may cause project delays or even prevent project execution and Outotec's business operations. As part of its overall project delivery, Outotec often gives performance guarantees and takes liabilities for the warranty period defects. Projects in Outotec's order backlog may contain risks related to delivery, quality, functionality or costs. Large turnkey projects may involve more risks, for example, due to their complex scope, long delivery times, and contractual liabilities. Operation and maintenance service contracts may include performance, personnel, and working capital related risks. In order to manage these business risks, Outotec has developed close management of both the project itself but in particular, the supply chain. Outotec aims to mitigate project risks through contract management, advance and milestone payments as well as gradual booking of orders in the backlog according to actual project progress in some cases. According to standard practice, all unfinished projects are evaluated quarterly and provisions for performance guarantees and warranty period guarantees are updated. Outotec follows the percentage of completion method for project revenue recognition. Based on project time schedules, management estimates the revenues to be recognized from the order backlog for the calendar year. As a result, deviations in project time schedules may have an impact on the company's financial projections. Financial result may also fluctuate due to the sales mix and relative share of Services, changes in foreign exchange rates, timing of new orders, license fee income, and project completions. The nature of international business, different interpretations of international and local tax rules and regulations may cause additional direct or indirect taxes for Outotec, thus reducing the company's net result. Acquisitions are an integral part of Outotec's strategy. Goodwill may be generated from acquisitions and if estimated synergy benefits do not materialize it may lead to goodwill impairment. Outotec's business model is primarily based on customer advance and milestone payments as well as on-demand guarantees issued by Outotec's relationship banks. Securing the continuity of Outotec's business operations and supporting the strategic objectives requires that the company has sufficient funding available under all circumstances. Cash held by the company is primarily invested in short term bank deposits and in Finnish corporate short term certificates of deposit. Outotec's customers and subcontractors may experience financial difficulties and lack of financing may result in project and payment delays or credit losses. More than 50% of Outotec's total cash flow is denominated in euros. The rest is divided among various currencies, including the US dollar, Australian dollar, Brazilian real, Canadian dollar, and South African rand. The weight of any given currency in new projects can substantially fluctuate, but most cash-flow-related risks are hedged over the short term and long term. In the short term, currency fluctuations may create volatility in profitability. The forecasted and probable cash flows are selectively hedged and are always subject to separate decisions and risk analysis. Natural hedging is used as widely as possible and the remaining open foreign exchange exposures related to committed cash flows are fully hedged using primarily forward agreements. The most relevant risks related to Outotec's business are presented in more detail at the company's website www.outotec.com. MARKET OUTLOOK Many global macroeconomic indicators including metals prices have been strengthening during recent months due to the more positive GDP growth outlook in the BRIC countries, Africa, the USA, and Europe. The overall market outlook for minerals and metals as well as alternative energy and industrial water treatment is positive due to the favorable megatrends. In addition, project financing is available and interest rate levels are expected to stay low. In minerals and metals processing, new investments are needed as current production capacity and ongoing investments in new capacity are not sufficient to fulfill the long term demand of metals. The main drivers for increasing metals demand are global GDP growth and the growing middle class in emerging economies. In addition, declining ore grades and more complex ores require investments in capacity and advanced technology to enable sufficient recovery of metals. In addition to these production capacity drivers, tightening environmental regulations, increasing energy efficiency requirements, and reducing of energy costs, carbon dioxide and other emissions as well as scarcity of fresh water increase investments in sustainable technology. Additionally, many developing countries, which in the past have been exporting raw materials with low value, are now investing in domestic capacity in order to capture more value from their natural resources. All in all, the industry is increasingly focusing on the social and environmental impacts of their operations and this is increasing the demand for sustainable processing technologies. There are still uncertainties in the world economy. However, metal prices are currently at a good level, and therefore, mining and metal companies are seeking ways to increase the capacity of their existing operations, which is often the fastest route to a return on investment. As a result, the industry CAPEX has been somewhat shifting from large greenfield projects requiring significant infrastructure investments to brownfield modernization and capacity enhancements. Outotec believes that the market continues to be solid in brownfield and mid-tier projects as well as services. New projects are developed, especially in the CIS, Middle East, Africa, and South-East Asia. Large turnkey projects are currently being developed more slowly as investment costs have been increasing, environmental permitting has been getting stricter, and industry's human resources continue to be scarce. These trends create favorable opportunities for Outotec's life cycle solutions when the company can provide the best return on the customer's investment with predictable investment cost, time to market, and process performance, leveraging the company's unique technologies and core competencies. Demand for alternative energy solutions continues to be stable, but in many countries current low energy prices and the lack of local regulations are slowing down the growth of investments in this area. However, niche waste-to-energy projects, where several raw materials can be used to create renewable energy for solving a local waste problem, are identified globally. REVISED FINANCIAL GUIDANCE FOR 2013 (EARLIER GUIDANCE IN PARENTHESIS) Based on the strong order backlog, current market outlook and the customer tendering activity, the management expects that in 2013: *Sales will be approximately EUR 2.1-2.3 billion (grow from 2012), and *Operating profit margin from business operations*) will be approximately 9.5-10.5% (further improve from 2012) *) excluding one-time items and purchase price allocations (PPA) amortizations Espoo, February 7, 2013 Outotec Oyj Board of Directors For further information, please contact: Outotec Oyj Pertti Korhonen, President and CEO tel. +358 20529211 Mikko Puolakka, CFO tel. +358 20529 2002 Rita Uotila, Vice President - Investor Relations tel. +358 20529 2003, mobile +358 400 954141 Format for e-mail addresses: email@example.com FINANCIAL REPORTING SCHEDULE IN 2013 *Interim Report for January-March 2013: April 26, 2013 *Interim Report for January-June 2013: July 31, 2013 *Interim Report for January-September 2013: October 30, 2013 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2013 The Annual General Meeting in 2013 is scheduled for March 26, 2013.

The amendment introduces new disclosure requirements about transfer of financial assets in two cases; financial assets that are not derecognized in their entirety and financial assets that are derecognized in their entirety but for which the entity retains continuing involvement. This amendment will promote transparency and improve understanding of the risk exposures relating to transfers of financial assets. Currently Outotec Group does not have such transferred financial assets and thus the amendment does not impact on the published information. *IAS 12 - Income taxes, Deferred tax. - Deferred tax accounting for investment property at fair value (Amendment to IAS 12). The amendment introduces an exception to the existing principle for the measurement of deferred tax assets or liabilities arising on investment property measured at fair value according to IAS 40 (Investment property). Outotec Group does not have currently investment properties measured using the fair value model in IAS 40 and thus the amendment does not impact on the published information. The following new standards and interpretations have been published, but they are not effective in 2012, neither has Outotec early adapted them. These changes are not expected to have material impact on Outotec's figures. *IAS 1 - Financial statement presentation. The main change resulting from these amendments is a requirement for entities to group items presented in 'other comprehensive income' (OCI) on the basis of whether they are potentially reclassifiable to profit or loss subsequently (reclassification adjustments). The amendments do not address which items are presented in OCI. The standard is not expected to have material impact on Outotec's financial statements. Standard will be applied for accounting periods beginning on January 1, 2013. *IAS 19 - Employee benefits. The amendment will eliminate the corridor approach and will recognize all actuarial gains and losses in OCI as they occur; to immediately recognize all past service costs; and to replace interest cost and expected return on plan assets with a net interest amount that is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability (asset). The standard is not expected to have material impact on Outotec's financial statements. Standard will be applied for accounting periods beginning on January 1, 2013. *IAS 32 - Financial instruments: Presentation. These amendments are to the application guidance to the standard and clarify some of the requirements for offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities on the balance sheet. Outotec estimates the impact of the change and intends to adopt changes during the accounting period beginning on or after January 1, 2014. *IFRS 9 - Financial instruments. The standard addresses the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The two parts of the IFRS 9 were issued in November 2009 and October 2010. It replaces the parts of IAS 39 that relate to the classification and measurement of financial instruments. IFRS 9 requires financial assets to be classified into two measurement categories: those measured as at fair value and those measured at amortized cost. The determination is made at initial recognition. The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing its financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the instrument. The main change regarding the financial liabilities is that, in cases where the fair value option is taken for financial liabilities, the part of a fair value change due to an entity's own credit risk is recorded in other comprehensive income rather than the income statement, unless this creates an accounting mismatch. Outotec is yet to assess IFRS 9's full impact and intends to adopt IFRS 9 wholly no later than the accounting period beginning on or after 1 January 2015. *IFRS 10 - Consolidated financial statements. The new standard of consolidated financial statements' builds on existing principles by identifying the concept of control as the determining factor as to whether an entity should be included within the consolidated financial statements of the parent company. The standard provides additional guidance to assist in the determination of control where this is difficult to assess. The standard is not expected to have material impact on Outotec's financial statements. Standard will be applied for accounting periods beginning on January 1, 2014. *IFRS 11 - Joint arrangements. IFRS 11 is a more realistic reflection of joint arrangements by focusing on the rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangement rather than its legal form. There are two types of joint arrangement: joint operations and joint ventures. Joint operations arise where a joint operator has rights to the assets and obligations relating to the arrangement and therefore accounts for its share of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Joint ventures arise where the joint venturer has rights to the net assets of the arrangement and therefore equity accounts for its interest. Proportional consolidation of joint ventures is no longer allowed. The standard is not expected to have material impact on Outotec's financial statements. Standard will be applied for accounting periods beginning on January 1, 2014. *IFRS 12 - Disclosures of interests in other entities. The standard includes the disclosure requirements for all forms of interests in other entities, including joint arrangements, associates, special purpose vehicles and other off balance sheet vehicles. Outotec has yet to assess IFRS 12's full impact and intends to adopt IFRS 12 no later than the accounting period beginning on or after January 1, 2014. *IFRS 13 - Fair value measurement. The standard provides a precise definition of fair value and a single source of fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for use across IFRSs. The standard is not expected to have material impact on Outotec's financial statements. Standard will be applied for accounting periods beginning on January 1, 2013. Use of estimates IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Accounting estimates are employed in the financial statements to determine reported amounts, including the realisability of certain assets, the useful lives of tangible and intangible assets, income taxes, provisions, pension obligations and impairment of goodwill. These estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current events and actions; however, it is possible that the actual results may differ from the estimates used in the financial statements.

The total value of commercial guarantees above does not include advance payment guarantees issued by the parent or other group companies or guarantees for financial obligations. The total amount of guarantees for financing issued by group companies amounted to EUR 22.4 million at December 31, 2012 (at December 31, 2011: EUR 25.8 million) and for commercial guarantees including advance payment guarantees EUR 570.6 million at December 31, 2012 (at December 31, 2011: EUR 477.1 million). High exposure of on-demand guarantees may increase the risk of claims that may have an impact on the liquidity of Outotec.

This favorite breakfast spot is much loved for its fresh-fruit waffles and tasty morning coffee. Service can be a little slow, but where are you running off to anyway? For lunch the little diner serves up huge deli sandwiches and decent entrée-size salads. In keeping with its name, it's full of stuffed bears, ceramic bears, even bear wallpaper.

That may be true, but it is still a Paramount-authorized and official prequel to TOS, regardless of your personal feelings about the show. And on that basis, there's nothing to indicate that the Kelvin couldn't fit a design lineage somewhere between the NX-01 and the TOS Enterprise. It certainly looked fine to me.
I disagree. Even if you take ENT into account, it still doesn't look like it fits within the design lineage at all.
And I disagree with you. So I guess that makes us even.
Dont believe everything you read on the internet.
