Earnings summary for the report period Ålandsbanken Sverige AB (encompassing Ålandsbanken Sverige AB, Ålandsbanken Fonder AB and Alpha Management Company S.A.) was consolidated in the Bank of Åland Group in such a way that its balance sheet on December 31, 2009 and its earnings during the period April 1 - December 31, 2009 have been included in the consolidated financial statements. This affects comparability with last year. The allocation between the Group's Finnish and Swedish business areas can be found in the table entitled “Earnings, newly acquired operations” on page 10. The year was characterised by the Group's investment in the Swedish market, increased focus on private banking services, instability in financial markets and low market interest rates. During January-December 2009, the consolidated net operating profit of the Bank of Åland Group increased by 52 per cent to EUR 30.5 M (20.0 in 2008). During the year, the Group recognised EUR 23.1 M in negative goodwill as income, due to its purchase of Kaupthing Bank Sverige AB in Sweden. In traditional banking operations, net interest income was adversely affected by low market interest rates, while the Group's strategic focus on private banking meant increased income from mutual funds, stock brokerage and asset management. Information technology (IT) operations performed favourably during the year, which increased “Other operating income”. The task of integration with Ålandsbanken Sverige AB, related to both processes and computer systems, was intensive and led to increased expenses for the Group. Income (excluding negative goodwill) increased by 17 per cent to EUR 87.2 M (74.2), while expenses rose by 48 per cent to EUR 77.2 M (52.1). Return on equity after taxes (ROE) increased to 17.8 (10.7) per cent, and earnings per share to EUR 2.27 (1.22). NET INTEREST INCOME During 2009, consolidated net interest income fell by 7 per cent to EUR 39.1 M (42.1). Ålandsbanken Sverige AB had net interest income of EUR 3.5 M. Despite increasing lending volume, low interest rates depressed net interest income during the year. Margins on lending showed a rising trend during 2009, while the prevailing market situation led to depressed deposit margins. Lending volume rose by 16 per cent to EUR 2,546 M (2,193). Deposit volume increased by 13 per cent to EUR 2,411 M (2,126). OTHER INCOME Commission income rose by 75 per cent to EUR 32.5 M (18.6). The Group's focus on private banking and the good stock exchange trend increased income from securities, mutual fund and asset management commissions. Commission income at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB amounted to EUR 11.9 M. Net income from securities trading for the Bank's own account was EUR 2.2 M (2.4). Valuation and realisation of value increases in interest rate hedging derivatives (the Bank of Åland does not apply hedge accounting) resulted in a positive nonrecurring effect of EUR 2.4 M. Net income from dealing in the foreign exchange market improved to EUR 1.8 M (1.0). Net income from financial assets available for sale was EUR 0.5 M (-0.1), and net income from investment properties increased to 0.2 M (0.1). Other operating income increased to EUR 15.4 M (12.4) as a consequence of higher income from the sale and development of information technology (IT) systems. During 2009, the Bank of Åland Plc bought Kaupthing Bank Sverige AB in Sweden, now Ålandsbanken Sverige AB (encompassing Kaupthing Bank Sverige AB, Kaupthing Fonder AB and Alpha Management Company S.A.). The acquisition analysis shows that the net assets acquired after restructuring expenses amounted to EUR 57.2 M and the cost of the shares, including the purchase price and acquisition-related expenses, amounted to EUR 34.1 M. Negative goodwill of EUR 23.1 M was recognised as income in the Bank of Åland Group during the second quarter. For detailed information about the acquisition analysis, see Note 4 under “Notes to the consolidated interim report” on page 13. The Group's total income (excluding negative goodwill) increased by 17 percent to EUR 87.2 M (74.2). EXPENSES Staff costs rose by 57 per cent to EUR 44.6 M (28.3) as a consequence of the acquisition of Ålandsbanken Sverige AB, employee recruitments at Crosskey Banking Solutions Ab Ltd plus salary hikes as provided by collective agreements. Staff costs at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB amounted to EUR 13.8 M. Changes in the Bank's pension fund, Ålandsbanken Abp:s Pensionsstiftelse, according to the corridor approach affected staff costs in the amount of EUR 0.1 M (0.2). Other administrative expenses (office, marketing, communications and IT) increased to EUR 16.7 M (11.0). Production for own use totalled EUR 1.9 M (0.5) and was related to expenses for computer software, which in accordance with IFRSs must be capitalised. Depreciation/amortisation increased to EUR 6.4 M (5.9). Other operating expenses amounted to EUR 11.4 M (7.4), of which EUR 3.6 M arose at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB. The Group's total expenses rose by 48 per cent to EUR 77.2 M (52.1). IMPAIRMENT LOSSES ON LOANS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS Impairment losses on loans amounted to EUR 2.9 M (2.3). Of these, EUR 1.4 M were individually targeted impairment losses and EUR 1.5 M a group impairment loss targeted to the real estate industry. Of the targeted individual impairment losses, EUR 1.2 M consisted of final actual loan losses. FOURTH QUARTER OF 2009 In the fourth quarter, the Group's net operating profit amounted to EUR -0.4 M (Q 42008: 3.7). Income Total income increased by 14 per cent to EUR 23.2 M (20.3). Lower interest rates combined with increased competition on deposit margins led to a decrease in net interest income of 9 per cent to EUR 9.7 M (10.7). Lending volume and margins were higher than during the corresponding period of 2008. Commission income improved by 117 per cent and amounted to EUR 10.0 M (4.6). The increase was attributable to the focus on private banking, increased market activity and the purchase of Ålandsbanken Sverige AB. Commission income at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB totalled EUR 4.4 M. Net income from securities trading and foreign exchange operations decreased to EUR -0.4 M (2.4). Other operating income rose by 46 per cent to EUR 5.0 M (3.4), with most of the increase coming from the Group's IT operations. Expenses Total expenses during the quarter increased by 57 per cent and amounted to EUR 23.0 M (14.6). During the quarter, staff costs amounted to EUR 13.4 M (7.4). The number of employees in the Group increased as a consequence of the purchase of Ålandsbanken Sverige AB, while salary hikes were implemented as provided by collective agreements. Staff costs at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB totalled EUR 5.2 M. Other administrative expenses increased to EUR 5.0 M (3.1) in the fourth quarter, primarily because of higher external computer expenses, communications and marketing. The task of integration with Å landsbanken Sverige AB led to an increase in other operating expenses to EUR 3.8 M (2.9). Impairment losses during the period totalled EUR 0.6 M (1.9). BALANCE SHEET TOTAL AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET OBLIGATIONS At the end of 2009, the Group's balance sheet total was EUR 3,379 M (2,770). During the year, the Group issued debenture loans 1/2009 and 2/2009 totalling EUR 34 M. With the permission of the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority and in compliance with the terms of the loan, the Group carried out an early redemption of debenture loan 2/2004, which it had issued on June 4, 2004. Off-balance sheet obligations rose to EUR 306 M (165). PERSONNEL Hours worked in the Group, recalculated to full-time equivalent positions, totalled 641 (487) positions, which represented an increase by 154 positions compared to the preceding year. The increase was due to the acquisition of Ålandsbanken Sverige AB as well as continued expansion of Crosskey Banking Solutions Ab Ltd. The number of employees at Ålandsbanken Sverige AB on December 31, 2009 was 176. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Bank of Åland Group | D ec 31 | Dec 31 | | | 2009 | 2008 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Ålandsbanken Abp | 310 | 318 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Ab Compass Card Oy Ltd | 5 | 6 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Crosskey Banking Solutions Ab Ltd | 159 | 134 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Ålandsbanken Asset Management Ab | 18 | 15 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Ålandsbanken Fondbolag Ab | 6 | 6 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Ålandsbanken Equities Ab | 7 | 0 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Ålandsbanken Sverige AB | 136 | 0 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Ålandsbanken Veranta Ab | 0 | 8 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Total num ber of full-time equivalent positions, | 641 | 487 | | recalculated from hours worked | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EXPENSE/INCOME RATIO Efficiency measured as expenses divided by income, including and excluding loan losses, respectively: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Bank of Åland Group | Dec 31 | Dec 31 | | | 2009 | 2008 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Including negative goodwill | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Including loan losses | 0.72 | 0.73 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Excluding loan losses | 0.70 | 0.70 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CAPITAL ADEQUACY The Group is reporting capital adequacy in accordance with Pillar 1 in the Basel 2 regulations. The Group's total cap ital ratio at the end of December 2009 was 12.3 per cent. The capital requirement for credit risks has been calculated according to the standardised approach, and the capital requirement for operational risks according to the basic indicator approach in the Basel 2 regulations. Risk management under Pillar 2 will be reported in the Annual Report for 2009. The Bank of Åland will endeavour to begin applying an Internal Ratings Based (IRB) approach in compliance with Basel 2 to calculate its capital adequacy requirement for credit risk, starting on January 1, 2011. Our assessment, according to the current regulations, is that this will substantially improve the Bank of Åland's capital adequacy. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Capital adequacy | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Bank of Åland Group | Dec 31 | Dec 31 | |   | 2009 | 2008 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Capital base, EUR M | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Core capital | 12 9,3 | 112.4 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Supplementary capital | 72.4 | 53.4 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Total capital base | 201.7 | 165.7 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Capital requirement for credit risks | 113.9 | 95.9 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Capital requirement for market risks | 2.2 | 0.0 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Capital requirement for operational risks | 14.9 | 9.3 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Total capital requirement | 130.9 | 105.1 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Total capital ratio, % | 12.3 | 12.6 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Core capital ratio, % | 7.9 | 8.6 | --------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- The main reason for the difference between the capital base and recognised equity capital is that subordinated liabilities may be counted in the capital base, while the proposed dividend may not be included.

IMPORTANT EVENTS AFTER THE CLOSE OF THE REPORT PERIOD No important events have occurred after the close of the report period. DISTRIBUTION OF PROFIT The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting approve a dividend of EUR 0.50 (0.50) per share plus an anniversary dividend of EUR 0.20 per share, which is equivalent to a total amount of EUR 8.1 M. OUTLOOK FOR 2010 Most observers expect a continued gradual recovery in the general economy and in the financial system during 2010, but the economic situation will remain uncertain and there is thus great sensitivity. Based on this assessment and taking into account that the Group's earnings in 2009 included sizeable non-recurring income attributable to negative goodwill from the acquisition of Kaupthing Bank Sverige AB, earnings in 2010 are expected to be substantially lower than in 2009. The Group's operational earnings, excluding non-recurring income, is expected to be at least at the same level as in 20 09. The Group's assessment of the outlook for 2009 is based on its assumptions about future developments in the fixed income and financial markets. However, general interest rates, the demand for lending, the trend of the capital and financial markets and the competitive situation, as well as the general economic situation are factors that the Group cannot influence. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION IN 2010 The Annual General Meeting will be held in Mariehamn, Åland, Finland on Monday, April 19, 2010. The Annual Report will be published in its official Swedish version on March 15, 2010, and in Finnish and English soon afterward.
