Markus Melkko, Interim CEO & CFO:

During the second quarter Tikkurila's financial performance remained solid, and strong demand for our quality brands continued. Revenue increased by 7% and revenue without currency effect increased by 9%. The adjusted operating result decreased by -21% compared to the record high Q2/2020. The adjusted operating margin during the second quarter of 2021 was close to 15 percent.

During the first half of the year, the global paint industry has experienced an

unprecedented raw material disruption, which has further escalated during the second quarter. The raw material and packaging inflation impacted our cost basis, and the simultaneous raw material supply issues impacted our ability to serve our customers.

In the first half of the year 2021, revenue increased by 8% (11% excluding currency effects) and adjusted operating result increased by 4% compared to the first half of 2020. Due to PPG's tender offer transaction operating result includes EUR 12.9 million costs, which are treated as items affecting comparability. These costs were advisory costs and costs related to employee incentives.

Tikkurila experienced good revenue growth in decorative paints in both interior and exterior paints. Revenue grew in all key geographies, except in Finland, where the second quarter revenue was slightly below the comparison period. Industrial paint revenue grew in both metal and wood paints against the comparison period.

Despite the varying Covid-19 restrictions in Tikkurila's operating countries, we have remained fully operational also during the second quarter.

We expect that raw material inflation and some supply constraints will continue during the second half of 2021. We will maintain focus on serving our customers to the best of our capabilities under the supply constraints, while maintaining our profitability with smart margin management and targeted pricing changes to offset inflation.

On June 10, 2021, PPG Industries, Inc. completed its voluntary cash tender offer. As of June 30, 2021, PPG Industries, Inc., through its wholly owned subsidiaries, owned 97.3% of Tikkurila Oyj shares and votes. PPG has commenced redemption proceedings, as defined under Finnish Companies Act, to redeem the minority shares.
