Welcome to the Baltic market

Welcome to the 2010 edition of the NASDAQ

OMX Guide to the Baltic Securities Market, your

indispensable reference point for news and

developments affecting the Baltic securities

markets, summaries of all Main List and some of

the larger Secondary List companies, as well as

other investment ideas for established and new

investors.

Despite the challenging times endured by the

global financial system, the NASDAQ OMX Baltic

exchanges continue to improve the quality of

their offering in the region.

NASDAQ OMX Group’s desire to acquire full

ownership in the Baltic exchanges as well as

the harmonization of trading technology give

proof of the region’s high potential and increase

integration with the global securities markets.

Two successful IPOs - Premia Foods and Linas

Agro Group - and a rights offerings of City Service

and Ekspress Grupp mark a recovery in market

sentiment after the lows of 2009. Development

of market indices and deeper interest in public

securities market as a capital raising source

indicate more optimistic view and increased

confidence in the Baltic market.

Moves towards adopting the Euro as the trading

and settlement currency in Estonia and Lithuania

by the beginning of 2011, with plans to do

the same in Latvia shortly thereafter, signal

the exchanges’ desire to ease the passage

of business for international investors. This is

backed up by efforts to bring investors more real-

time information, with the introduction of the next

generation trading platform, Genium INET, and

more advanced trading surveillance systems.

Alongside our continued promotion of better

education services, these initiatives demonstrate

NASDAQ OMX Baltic’s commitment to improving

local equity culture and to welcoming investors

from around the globe.

Latest developments at NASDAQ OMX Baltic

NASDAQ OMX to increase its presence

in the Baltics

NASDAQ OMX acquired the minority stakes Swed-

bank and SEB held in the NASDAQ OMX Baltic

exchanges, thereby strengthening its position

in the Baltic market. NASDAQ OMX has a strategic

interest in developing the region’s capital mar-

kets and its goal is to reach 100 percent owner-

ship in all NASDAQ OMX’s Baltic entities in the near

future.

Trading and clearing of equities in euro

Business on the Baltic exchanges is closely

interrelated, with every third exchange trans-

action being across borders. Therefore, in order

to have more homogeneous markets, the Baltic

exchanges are working towards introducing a

single trading and clearing currency in the Baltic

market. Estonia will adopt the euro as a national

currency from January 1, 2011 and, consequently,

trading and clearing on NASDAQ OMX Tallinn will

be conducted in euros. NASDAQ OMX Vilnius will

start using the euro as the trading and clearing

currency for equities on its regulated market in

November 2010. NASDAQ OMX Riga will also move

along with its plan to introduce trading in euros

on its regulated equities market.

Making markets more attractive

to foreign issuers

NASDAQ OMX Baltic has continuously worked

to improve the attractiveness of its market-

place and one of its initiatives has been aimed

at adjusting the setup of its market so that list-

ing and trading is as seamless for foreign issuers

as it is for local customers. Following changes in

regulations passed in early 2010, an electronic

issue of the Listing Guide for Foreign Companies

was published. This publication provides foreign

issuers with information on the benefits, ser-

vices, requirements and practices of listing and

trading in the Baltic states. Listing guide is avail-

able on www.nasdaqomxbaltic.com

Genium INET

NASDAQ OMX Baltic and Nordic exchanges suc-

cessfully introduced the INET trading system for

equities markets on February 8, 2010 followed

by a new, real time, market surveillance system,

SAGA. Volatility Guards - a complementary tool for

equity markets to reduce the likelihood of erro-

neous trades and to reduce the impact of sudden

and extraordinary liquidity was implemented in

September 2010.

The new trading platform, named Genium INET,

will replace the existing SAXESS trading system

and will be used for fixed income trading and

issuing auctions on the Baltic exchanges. Genium

INET, developed to comply with Nordic and Baltic

market conditions, will bring improved trad-

ing interfaces and enhancements in the market

model.

It is planned that trading in Nordic derivatives will

be migrated to the new system during autumn

2010, while Nordic and Baltic fixed income trading

and issuing auctions will be transferred in 2011.

Genium INET will enable further improvements in

efficiency, in reducing latency and in the inter-

face members use for derivatives, fixed income

instruments trading, and issuing auctions across

Nordic and Baltic exchanges.

The Baltic CSDs continuously work on

implementing their clearing and

settlement strategies

Both Latvia’s and Estonia’s Central Securities

Depositories (CSDs) will introduce a common,

centralized, message exchange service called

the Central Message Hub by the end of 2010.

This hub will be based on proven state-of-the-

art technology, such as Java Messaging Services

and IBM MQ, replacing existing local proprietary

interfaces. Message Hub will ensure the integ-

rity of messages and will allow for further inte-

gration and interoperability with the SWIFT and

Target2 Securities systems, which use inter-

national ISO20022 standards. After a one-and-

a-half year development phase, Message Hub

is being used in a test environment and, at the

time of its launch, will be the most reliable and

cost efficient interface between Baltic CSDs and

market participants.

New core system Depend in Estonian CSD

Estonia’s CSD will introduce a new core system

called Depend on January 1, 2011, at the same

time as the country adopts the euro. Cash set-

tlement will take place in Target2-Estonia and

transactions will be settled in Euro only. Clear-

ing and settlement processes will be amended

to accord with the best practices and interna-

tional standards. Settlement will be through

Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) with optimiza-

tion batches instead of batch processing, which

should reduce the assets commitment periods

and risks for buyers and sellers.

NASDAQ OMX Vilnius to hold euro-denominated

Lithuanian Government bond auctions

In July 2010, NASDAQ OMX Vilnius started hold-

ing primary auctions of Lithuanian government

bonds denominated in euros. Until then, bond

auctions had been held only in the Lithuanian

national currency, the Litas. Government bond

auctions are held on the NASDAQ OMX trading

platform, whereas the clearing and settlement

of the trades executed at auctions is handled by

the Central Securities Depository of Lithuania.

Settlement for debt securities in euro

Quoting and trading in debt securities on NASDAQ

OMX Vilnius has been expanded, not only for

trades conducted in litas or euros, but for other

currencies as well (settlements are made in litas).

Since February 2010, the settlement of trades in

euro-denominated securities at NASDAQ OMX Vil-

nius are performed via the TARGET 2 payment

system. Currently this applies to trades in debt

securities.

NASDAQ OMX Baltic – what we offer to investors, members and information vendors NASDAQ OMX Baltic’s securities market aims to

provide a one-stop-shop for trading and settle-

ment in the Baltic region, thereby making the

region more accessible and attractive to for-

eign and local investors, as well as listed com-

panies. The market – comprising of three Baltic

exchanges, the central securities deposito-

ries of Estonia and Latvia, and a network of local

and international members – offers a compre-

hensive, efficient and secure marketplace regu-

lated to global standards for companies to raise

capital and for investors to transact and settle

fund units. NASDAQ OMX’s exchanges in Riga and

Vilnius have developed an infrastructure for pri-

mary placement of new bond issues, used by the

Latvian and Lithuanian Governments and corpo-

rate issuers.

Efficient cross-border trading and settlement NASDAQ OMX Baltic facilitates efficient cross-

border trading and settlement between the

exchanges in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania,

thereby making the Baltic region more accessi-

ble and attractive to investors and listed com-

panies. By utilizing a common trading system, as

well as common rules and requirements between

the exchanges, and offering an advanced deliv-

ery versus payment (DVP) link, investors are able

to trade and settle efficiently and seamlessly

between the three markets.

Advanced electronic trading system INET

NASDAQ OMX Baltic’s stock exchanges oper-

ate according to the order-driven trading model,

where bids and offers are entered in the relevant

order book and automatically matched to trades

when price, volume and other order conditions

are met.

NASDAQ OMX Baltic exchanges use the trad-

ing system INET for equity trading. Recognized

as the most advanced securities trading tech-

nology in the world, INET is used in NASDAQ OMX

Group’s exchanges in the US, the Nordic and

Baltic countries.

Having one single trading platform, used by

investors worldwide, eases and facilitates trans–

Atlantic access for members to the Nordic and

Baltic markets. With the introduction of INET,

exchange members can enjoy greater flexibility

as the platform can be used via the internet.

Fixed income instruments are traded on the

Saxess platform.

TRADING DAY

All three Baltic exchanges have the same

structure and hours to their trading day. The

day’s structure is also harmonized with other

exchanges at NASDAQ OMX Nordic.

All three Baltic countries are part of the EU’s

exchange rate mechanism, ERM-2. Participa-

tion means that each country’s domestic cur-

rency is pegged to the euro in order to prepare

the respective country for full membership of the

monetary union.

Tick size and trading lots

As of November 2010, the tick size for listed equi-

ties is EUR 0.001 on NASDAQ OMX Tallinn and Vil-

nius, and LVL 0.001 on NASDAQ OMX Riga. The min-

imum trading lot for Baltic listed securities is 1.

Common trading rules and practices

One of the cornerstones of the NASDAQ OMX

Baltic is a harmonized regulatory framework. The

Baltic exchanges have harmonized trading rules

and membership requirements, and are com-

patible with member rules at other NASDAQ OMX

exchanges in Copenhagen, Helsinki, Reykjavik

and Stockholm.

Clearing and settlement

The Baltic central securities depositories pro-

vide centralized clearing and settlement in each

market, as well as execution of corporate actions,

assuring a level playing field for local and inter-

national investors.

All securities listed on the Baltic exchanges must

be registered in the respective national central

securities depository (CSD). Institutions that are

members of a stock exchange do not necessar-

ily need to become participants of a CSD and/

or member of the national central bank, but can

facilitate all or part of the clearing and settle-

ment process via appointed clearing agents.

The default settlement cycle for automatically

matched stock exchange trades is three days

after the trading day (T+3). However, settlement

for treasury securities listed in Lithuania is T+1.

Other settlement cycles are possible for manual

transactions.

Cross-border settlement

The Baltic central securities depositories have

harmonized clearing and settlement processes,

simplifying investments in Baltic securities - all

members and investors need is a single secu-

rities and cash account in one Baltic country,

to which the securities registered in any of the

Baltic CSDs can be settled.

Pan-Baltic settlement link

An investor with a securities 1. account in Estonia/Latvia/Lithuania can easily buy and sell securities in any of the three countries

An investor interested in 2. buying securities in one of the neighboring countries no longer needs to open a new account in the country in question

Payments are made in local currency 3. (EEK in Estonia, LVL in Latvia, LTL in Lithuania); the cash-leg in foreign currencies is settled via commercial banks (EUR and USD)

One common clearing and settlement 4. time schedule for Baltic stock exchange transactions. A market specific time schedule remains for Latvian tradable government bonds

Stock exchange transactions are 5. settled via cross-border DVP

Cross-border FOP transfers and OTC 6. DVP transactions are available to all account operators and account managers of the Baltic CSDs

The cross-border link supports the clearing and

settlement of a full range of transaction types

(i.e. stock exchange trades, FOP transfers and

over-the-counter delivery versus payment (OTC

DVP) transactions) on the cross-border second-

ary market.

The clearing and settlement solution between the

Baltic CSDs complies with the Issuer CSD Model,

meaning that the Issuer CSD takes the responsi-

bility for the settlement of securities registered

with it. The cash clearing of a cross-border DVP

transaction is conducted in its original currency

in the respective central bank via local commer-

cial banks.

Further information on the Baltic market and

its clearing and settlement practices can be

obtained from the Baltic Market Practice Guide

for Securities Settlement, available on the Baltic

CSDs’ websites.

Other depository services

Recent activities at the Baltic CSDs have con-

centrated on step-by-step improvement of the

information exchange on corporate actions. From

January 2008, information on corporate actions is

exchanged between the Baltic CSDs using SWIFT

messaging. From June 2008, the Estonian CSD

introduced ISO standard messages and e-mail,

as well as SWIFT, to transmit corporate actions to

local account operators.

Further information on the practices and execu-

tion of corporate actions at the Estonian, Lat-

vian and Lithuanian Central Depositories can be

obtained from “The Corporate Actions Practice

Guide” available on the CSDs’ websites.

NASDAQ OMX Baltic membership In order to trade on all three Baltic markets, a

bank or brokerage firm needs to be a member of

all three exchanges. However, through a single

application form, joint review and approval proce-

dure, the Baltic exchanges have made the cross-

border application procedure as simple and as

smooth as possible. We encourage our members

to become full Baltic members. Investors should

note that pan-Baltic brokerage services can only

be provided by pan-Baltic members.

To be eligible for NASDAQ OMX Baltic membership,

rities operations and be under adequate super-

installment costs. Furthermore, they are not

required to pay extra fees to the Baltic exchanges

for the use of technical infrastructure.

Clearing and settlement of transactions made

on the NASDAQ OMX Baltic takes place in the

local CSDs. A remote member (foreign-based

member firm) has two alternatives for clear-

ing and settling transactions concluded on the

Baltic exchange(s): it can either use its own back

office and conclude respective agreements with

the Estonian, Latvian or Lithuanian CSD, or it can

outsource its clearing and settlement services.

Several service providers are available on the

market.

Detailed information disclosure requirements

for listed companies

Companies traded on the exchange are subject

to information disclosure rules. NASDAQ OMX Bal-

tic’s exchanges have a harmonized set of disclo-

sure requirements for companies traded on the

Baltic market. Companies must disclose, without

delay, any information that may have a material

effect on the price of their securities in English

and the local language. Disclosure rules require

any significant event in the issuer’s business to

be reported to all market participants simultane-

ously, ensuring that investors and other market

participants have an equal basis upon which to

make informed investment decisions.

Safe place to investProviding a safe place to invest is one of our top

priorities and a number of effective measures

are in place to maintain investor confidence and

integrity at NASDAQ OMX Baltic’s markets. Since

joining the EU in 2004, the Baltic countries have

had to comply with all EU regulations as well as

adjust local legislation concerning securities

markets. Market supervision and enforcement

play a vital role in ensuring market confidence.

Each Baltic state has a national financial super-

visory authority (FSA) to supervise the local secu-

rities market. The stock exchanges themselves

also act as self-regulatory bodies, supervising

their member firms as well as their listed compa-

nies. This multi-tier supervision and enforcement

system is in place to ensure that issuers and

member firms act in compliance with laws and

applicable rules, regulations and instructions.

Corporate governance

Listed companies must adhere to corporate gov-

ernance requirements. At NASDAQ OMX Baltic, we

continue to work with corporate governance to

improve transparency and strengthen customer

confidence in the market.

The Baltic exchanges take an active part in the

Executive Committee of the Baltic Institute of

Corporate Governance (BICG), a non-profit orga-

nization that advances the corporate governance

agenda in the Baltic states and seeks to improve

the understanding of good corporate governance

and the value of adhering to established princi-

ples of corporate governance. The most recent

initiative of the BICG – the launch of “Baltic Guid-

ance on the corporate governance” for the gover-

nance of government-owned enterprises (GOEs) -

is designed to enhance the governance and,

Investor protection

A wide range of measures are in place to ensure

a high level of investor protection on the NASDAQ

OMX Baltic exchanges. It is mandatory for inter-

mediaries and custodians to keep proprietary

investments on separate accounts from their cli-

ents’ investments. This eliminates securities risk

in case of default of a bank or a brokerage com-

pany. Members are required to have sufficient

capital to cover risks associated with operations.

In addition, the exchanges have set up a Guaran-

tee Fund, used in the case of a member’s default

to which all members contribute.

Knowledge – the key to successful investing

No matter if it is to fund a college education, to

supplement current income, or save up for retire-

ment, the key to successful investing is knowl-

edge. And no matter how long one has been

investing, there is always more to learn – with

changed market conditions to consider, new

products to understand and different investment

strategies to suit changing lifestyles. NASDAQ

OMX Baltic is committed to educating current and

potential investors about investing in securities.

Through its investor awareness program, NASDAQ

OMX Baltic stock exchanges aim to provide inves-

tors and other interested groups with neutral,

practical information about investing, as well as

to support a transparent marketplace and best

practices together with governmental bodies

and supervisory authorities. The program aims to

improve education on the securities markets and

promote a steady flow of new and experienced

investors to the Baltic market. Interested people

will be provided with information according to

their level of expertise, from first-time investors

to advanced.

Informed investors drive market success and

we see great potential for our market through

enhancing the knowledge and awareness of our

investors.

The Baltic exchanges implement a wide range of local and pan-Baltic activities to raise investor awareness, including:

Local language web sections or sites ��dedicated to investor education and containing background and current information relevant to potential investors according to different levels of experience

Fairs, conferences and seminars to ��provide investors with an overview of securities market trends and issuers with the opportunity to present their story and visions

Close cooperation with the ��universities in providing students and the general public with knowledge and understanding of the securities markets

Academic competitions to stimulate ��student involvement and interest in the Baltic securities market

Schoolbooks and other learning ��materials, which are edited and released by stock exchanges

As well as other country-��specific projects

The Baltic economies

EstoniaBy the end of 2009, adjustments in Estonia’s

economy have helped it to recover from the deep

crisis it found itself in twelve months earlier.

Although household consumption and private

investments are still low, exports and related

industrial production have shown a strong recov-

ery and brought back economic growth. The most

successful sectors are producing higher value-

added products, but exports of mineral products

and electricity have also grown strongly.

The recovery of exports and industry is directly

related to adjustments made in Estonia’s com-

panies: they have become more efficient, more

productive and found new markets outside the

EU. The weakening of the euro and the recovery

in Europe have been supporting factors as well.

Still, the relatively bleak outlook for the devel-

oped world’s economies poses some risk for

the growth of Estonia’s economy as it is highly

dependent on exports.

Taking into account its low production costs –

Estonia will be the country with the lowest pro-

duction costs in the euro zone – the country’s

exports and production should grow vigorously in

the coming years although growth in the EU will

be slow. Still, the constant improvement of pro-

ductivity is required.

The government’s efforts to keep the public-sec-

tor budget deficit low despite the sharp economic

contraction were successful and were rewarded

with membership of the euro zone from 2011. The

reality of euro zone membership and the adjust-

ments in the economy have already captured the

attention of investors, which should bring more

beneficial investments to the country.

Consumption will remain weak for a long time as

high levels of unemployment will decline only

slowly and income growth will need some time to

appear. The sharply increased saving rates at the

time of the crisis will only gradually decrease in

next few years. Weak consumer demand keeps

import levels low, although it grows hand-in-

hand with exports and investments.

High unemployment is one of the short-to-

medium term challenges for the Estonian econ-

omy, which may result in labour outflow and limit

future growth. The business sector has to con-

tinue its efforts to raise productivity and effi-

ciency. Of the longer-term issues, ageing and

population decline will remain the biggest chal-

lenge for the country.

LatviaThe Latvian economy reached the bottom of its

cycle at the end of 2009 and a slow recovery is

expected in the forthcoming years. Although

exports have already shown vigorous growth,

domestic demand is still weak and will require

time to show improvement.

The recovery of exports has been rather impres-

sive: after cost cutting, which improved com-

panies’ competitiveness, a recovery of external

demand has allowed Latvian firms to expand their

production. It is therefore reasonable to expect

Latvia to increase its share of world trade. Still,

as the global outlook remains challenged, there

is a risk that export growth will slow. Therefore,

it is crucial for Latvia’s companies to continue

increasing their efficiency and productivity and

to shift towards higher value products.

The situation and outlook for domestic demand

is far less promising. Unemployment is high and

any improvement has occurred mostly because

of seasonal factors or due to emigration. It

means that household incomes continue to be

low, which in turn affects their spending abil-

ity. Although export growth is already starting

to create jobs, this process will not be fast and

exporting sectors will not be able to absorb most

of the unemployed.

Investment growth is expected to arrive late in

2010 as excessive capacities will be employed

and a more favourable economic outlook will

encourage companies to invest. However, real

estate and government investments will remain

low due to strong oversupply and the need to cut

budget deficit.

The Latvian government has managed to keep its

promises regarding the budget deficit, and this

has improved the overall business environment.

However, fiscal consolidation has had rather a

strong negative impact on domestic demand,

and may deepen some of the problems with

infrastructure and in the social sphere. Structural

reforms in the public services are the main chal-

lenge for the Latvian economy, as only in this way

would it be possible to cut taxes and increase

budget spending on infrastructure, which in turn

would benefit the Latvian economy. The budget

deficit will decline, but remain high for some

years to come; accession to the euro zone is

expected in 2014.

LithuaniaThe Lithuanian economy has started on a bumpy

road upwards, supported by exports, while

domestic demand remains weak.

Improved global economic developments and

adjustments made by Lithuania’s companies, to

increase productivity and efficiency, have gen-

erated a strong export recovery. Although a sub-

stantial part of the growth in exports is and will

remain related to oil products, other exports and

the production of different forms of capital and

intermediate goods have expanded strongly as

well. The improved competitiveness of Lithua-

nia’s producers will promote export growth in the

future, despite the relatively weak outlook for

growth in the main export markets.

Domestic demand will remain low for some time

as unemployment remains high and wages strug-

gle to recover from the cuts made during the

crisis. When unemployment starts to decrease

and incomes rise, consumption will also recover.

However, the recovery will be slow, as unemploy-

ment is expected to remain high for years.

The investment outlook is bleak in the short

term due to excess capacities and financial con-

straints. However, investment will start to grow

as limits in the capacity of the export sector start

to show. Still, the real estate sector will remain

weak for some years, and the government’s abil-

ity to expand investments, other than those

related to EU funding, will be limited as well due

to budget constraints. Investments in infrastruc-

ture, particularly in the energy sector, will grow

and remain high for several years, being sup-

ported both by private and public funds - the

latter getting a substantial contribution from EU

funds and institutional borrowing.

Although most of the adjustment to the new

business reality has already taken place, the

private sector still has to continue working on

improving and maintaining its competitiveness.

In that respect, efforts to increase the produc-

tion of high value added goods should continue,

keeping the need for investment high. The gov-

ernment’s major challenges are related to the

public finances, where the budget deficit needs

to be cut. At the same time, efforts to improve

the business environment and attract more

investment should continue, as this is only way

to address the problem of high unemployment.

Lithuania is expected to join the EMU in 2014.

Overview of taxation in the Baltic countries

ESTONIAResident companies

In Estonia, corporate taxpayers are not subject

to traditional corporate income tax. Instead, they

are subject to a distribution tax on distributed

profits, including hidden profit distributions (e.g.

fringe benefits, non-business expenses, trans-

fer pricing adjustments, gifts and donations). The

income of a company comprises its worldwide

income of all types but no tax is levied on this

income until retained in the company. Losses

have no significance for tax purposes.

Upon distribution, the distribution tax is levied

at a rate of 21/79 (approximately 26.6%) on the

net amount of the profit distribution (21% on the

gross amount). When a resident company redis-

tributes dividends received from its subsidiary

where it has at least 10% participation, the fur-

ther distribution is exempt of tax if either the

subsidiary is (a) resident in Estonia, another EEA

state or Switzerland or (b) resident outside those

countries but was subject to tax on its profits or

the dividends received by the parent were sub-

ject to withholding tax.

Non-Resident companies

With certain exceptions, the taxation of a non-

resident’s permanent establishment in Estonia

is similar to the taxation of resident companies.

The taxation of non-residents that have no per-

manent establishment in Estonia is restricted

to their activities in Estonia. Types of non-res-

idents’ income taxable in Estonia include busi-

ness income earned in Estonia, capital gains

from real estate, gains from the shares of com-

panies holding more than 50% of their assets in

real estate, and excessive interest. Otherwise,

interest and capital gains from the sale of shares

are exempt of tax if received by non-residents. In

addition to distribution tax, which is paid by the

distributing company, there is no additional with-

holding tax on dividends.

In general, the standard 21% tax rate also applies

to non-residents. In most cases non-residents

are taxed by way of a withholding tax. An excep-

tion is that taxes on capital gains are not with-

held; the non-resident has to declare the gain

and pay the tax.

The following Taxation section has been written for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. It is limited to the main aspects of income tax on interest, dividends and transactions with securities. The information in this section has been provided with regard to laws and regulations in force on October 1, 2010.

Resident Individuals

Individuals resident in Estonia are subject to taxa-

tion on their worldwide income. Income (including

dividends, interest and capital gains) is generally

subject to tax at a flat rate of 21%. Domestic divi-

dends received by individuals are not taxed. For-

eign dividends are exempt if they have been sub-

ject to withholding tax or if the profit out of which

the dividends are paid has been taxed in a foreign

state. Interest income is exempt if it is paid by a

credit institution resident in Estonia or another

EEA state. Losses from securities can be carried

forward indefinitely but can be deducted only

from a gain from the disposal of other securities.

As of 1 January 2011, capital gains derived by

individuals from the disposal of financial assets

(e.g. shares and securities traded publicly in any

of the EEA or OECD countries or under certain

conditions in other countries, units of invest-

ment funds, investment deposits) will not be tax-

able if these assets had been acquired by funds

deposited on an investment account opened for

such purpose in a credit institution of an EEA

or OECD country and the sales proceeds will be

transferred back to the investment account.

Such gains will, therefore, be only taxable when

transferred out of the investment account (i.e.

assumed to be used for consumption). Financial

assets acquired before 2011 are also eligible if

attributed to the investment account.

LATVIAResident companies

Resident companies are subject to income tax

at a rate of 15%. Dividends are subject to income

tax if received from non-resident companies or

resident companies to which certain tax exemp-

tions apply in Latvia. Dividends are tax exempt if

received from a company resident in another EEA

state or from a non-resident company (unless

from a low tax territory) in which the resident

company owns 25% of capital and voting rights.

Interest and capital gains received by resident

companies are generally taxed at the rate of

15%1.

Non-resident companies

With certain exceptions, the taxation of a non-

resident company’s permanent establishment in

Latvia is similar to the taxation of resident com-

panies. Taxation of non-residents that have no

permanent establishment in Latvia is limited to

their activities in Latvia. The law contains a com-

prehensive list of payments to non-residents

that are subject to withholding tax in Latvia. This

list includes, among others, dividends paid by

resident companies and interest payments. Non-

resident companies being residents in EEA states

are not subject to withholding tax on dividends,

while in general dividends paid to non-residents

are subject to 10% withholding tax. Interest pay-

ments to non-resident companies are subject to

10% withholding tax if the payer and the recipi-

ent are related parties. If the related party receiv-

ing interest payment is resident in another EU

member state, 5% withholding tax applies. Inter-

est paid by commercial banks registered in Latvia

to persons affiliated with them is subject to 5%

withholding tax. All payments made by resident

companies to low-tax or tax-free countries or

territories are subject to 15% withholding tax,

with the exception of dividends paid by Latvian

residents, interest from deposits and balance of

accounts paid by credit institutions registered in

Latvia and payments regarding supply of goods,

if such goods are goods of origin of the respec-

tive low-tax territory.

Resident Individuals

Individuals resident in Latvia are subject to taxa-

tion on their worldwide income. In general, income

tax is charged at a flat rate of 26%. Income from

disposal of capital assets is subject to personal

income tax at a rate of 15%. If in a taxation year

the assessed capital gain from the disposal of

one capital asset is negative, while from the dis-

posal of another capital asset it is positive, the

loss can be set off against the positive capi-

tal gain. The losses realized in one taxation year

cannot be set off against the capital gain realized

in subsequent taxation years or other income of

the same taxation year.

Dividends, interest income and income from pri-

vate pension funds, life insurance are subject to

personal income tax at a rate of 10%.

Non-Resident Individuals

In general, the standard personal income tax

rates also apply to non-residents. Taxation of

non-resident individuals is limited to their activ-

ities in Latvia. The law contains an exhaustive

list of income of non-residents that are subject

to taxation in Latvia. This list includes, among

others, dividends paid by resident corporations,

interest payments and income from the disposal

of capital assets. By way of exception, income

of non-residents from the disposal of financial

instruments is not subject to personal income

tax in Latvia. In most cases non-residents are

taxed by way of a withholding tax.

LITHUANIAResident companies

The profit of Lithuanian companies is subject

to corporate income tax at a rate of 15%. Micro

companies which have up to 10 employees and

up to LTL 500 000 income per taxable year may be

subject to a reduced rate of 5%.

Generally, dividends received by a resident com-

pany are subject to corporate income tax at a

rate of 15%. A participation exemption applies

to dividends paid to a parent company holding

more than 10% of the voting shares in the dis-

tributing company continuously for at least 12

months, provided the distributing company is not

established or otherwise organized in a tax haven

country. Dividends received from the foreign com-

pany, which is registered or otherwise organised

in EEA Member State and profit of which is sub-

ject to corporate income tax or equivalent tax,

are exempt from tax.

Interest received by Lithuanian companies is

subject to corporate income tax at the rate of

15%.

Capital gains from the disposal of shares in the

company, which is resident in an EEA member

state or in a country that has concluded a double

taxation treaty with Lithuania and the profit of

which is subject to corporate income tax or an

equivalent tax, may be exempt from taxation. To

qualify for the exemption, the resident company

must hold more than 25% of the voting shares

continuously for at least 2 years (or 3 years in

case of tax neutral former reorganisation). How-

ever, the exemption is not applicable if the shares

are transferred to the issuer.

Operational losses may be carried forward indefi-

nitely, provided the company continues with the

same activity. Losses from the transfer of securi-

ties and derivatives may be carried forward for 5

years and may be offset only against income from

the disposal of securities and derivatives. Carry

back of losses is not allowed. As from January 1,

2010, losses may be transferred within a group of

companies (subject to certain restrictions).

Non-resident companies

Non-resident companies are subject to tax only

on income received by permanent establish-

ments in Lithuania and income sourced in Lithua-

nia (e.g. income gained from the transfer or lease

of immovable property located in Lithuania, inter-

est, royalties, dividends, etc.). The withholding

tax rate differs depending on the income type.

Generally, dividends paid by a resident company

to a non-resident parent company are subject to

withholding tax at a rate of 15%. A participation

exemption applies to dividends paid to a parent

company holding more than 10% of the voting

shares in the distributing company continuously

for at least 12 months, provided the recipient

company is not established or otherwise orga-

nized in a tax haven country.

As of January 1, 2010, withholding tax on inter-

est is abolished for companies resident in EEA

member states and in countries that have con-

cluded the double tax treaty with Lithuania. Oth-

erwise, the rate is 10%.

The sale of the shares in a Lithuanian company

by a non-resident company is out of the scope of

taxation in Lithuania.

Resident individuals

Individuals resident in Lithuania are subject to

personal income tax on their worldwide income.

The standard tax rate is 15%.

Dividends are taxed at a rate of 20%. Moreover,

the part of the dividends (only distributed to indi-

viduals) proportional to the factually tax-free

part of the Lithuanian company’s (except for a

company established in a free economic zone)

profit is subject to corporate income tax at a rate

of 15%.

Interest received by Lithuanian individuals is sub-

ject to personal income tax at the rate of 15%.

Interest is exempt from taxation if repayment

commences not earlier than 366 days after the

date when the loan was granted (some excep-

tions apply).

Capital gains are tax exempt if derived from the

disposal of shares acquired before January 1,

1999. Exemption is also applicable to gains from

the transfer of shares acquired after January

1, 1999 and held for at least 366 days, provided

the individual’s participation has not exceeded

10% of the share capital during 3 years prior to

a tax year when the shares were disposed. How-

ever, the latter exemption is not applicable if the

shares are transferred to the issuer or the autho-

Linas Agro Group

Premia Foods

2010 saw the first public equity

offerings in the Baltics since the

macroeconomic downturn took

hold. That in itself is an impor-

tant sign that both retail and

institutional investor sentiment

towards the region has improved

significantly.

There is a common bond between

the two companies that made

their public offering at the begin-

ning of 2010 – Linas Agro Group

and Premia Foods. Both operate

in an industry there ultimately

to provide some form of nour-

ishment. Thereby two worthy

causes were realized at the same

time: a greater ability to supply

a source of energy to humanity

and the animal kingdom, and, at

the same time, the development

of the Baltic capital markets.

Klaipėdosnafta NASDAQ OMX VilniusSecondary list

Energy

Company profiles: Klaipėdos nafta

Company in brief

Klaipėdos nafta is a Lithuanian enterprise offering oil cargo transit services. The oil terminal controlled by the company is one of the most up-to-date in Europe. It han-dles about one-third of all cargoes coming through Klaipeda Seaport. The Terminal is of major importance to the economy of Lithua-nia, not only because of earnings, but also because it allows for independent delivery of oil products from the West. In this way, the company is a strategic enterprise owned by the state. Its function is not only to trans-ship exported oil products, but also to sup-ply Lithuania with fuels imported by sea from the West. Moreover, the government of Lith-uania has authorized Klaipėdos nafta to make preparations to build an LNG terminal – another strategic project of the state. Thus, the role of the company in safeguarding the energy security of the whole country by sup-plying it with fuels, as well as with natural gas, has become even more important.

Klaipėdos nafta manages to keep the oil flowing despite furious competition. Long-term relations with clients and up-to-date technology, which allow for effective oper-ation, play a decisive role in the company’s effective performance. Close everyday coop-eration with Lithuanian Railways ensures efficient delivery of its cargoes. The tanker arrival schedule is strictly controlled.

Qualifications, technological discipline and the honest labor of Klaipėdos nafta’s emplo- yees guarantee reliable protection of the environment, the stable operation of the terminal, and the high quality of the services rendered.

Klaipėdos nafta was named as a finalist in two nominations, “Best Engineering and Techno- logical Capacity” and “Most Environmentally Safe Terminal”, at the international com-petition “Oil Terminal – 2006”, held for the first time in Moscow. In 2009 the company won two awards, “Successfully Performing Enterprise 2009” and “Lithuanian Exporter of the Year – 2009”, arranged by the Lithuanian Confederation of Industrialists.

Latvijas Gāze NASDAQ OMX RigaSecondary list

Energy

Company in brief

Latvijas Gāze is the only natural-gas trans-mission, storage, distribution, and sales operator in Latvia. The company ensures the supply of natural gas to 442,000 custom-ers in Latvia; and during the heating sea-son, the company also supplies natural gas from the Inčukalns Underground Gas Storage Facility to Estonia, northwestern Russia, and Lithuania.

The company was established in 1991 after the collapse of the Soviet Union, when the Government of Latvia took over all gas sup-ply companies and facilities in Latvia and consolidated them into the state-owned company, Latvijas Gāze. In 1994 the state-owned company Latvijas Gāze became a state joint-stock company and was slated for privatization. After the privatization, last-ing from 1997 to 2002, E.ON Ruhrgas Interna-tional GmbH, OJSC Gazprom and ITERA Latvia LLC became the largest shareholders of the company.

The company’s objective is to strengthen Latvijas Gāze’s position as a leader in the Latvian fuel market, by increasing the avail-ability of natural gas, promoting the variety of its consumption, and ensuring Latvia with one of the most stable natural gas supplies in Europe, continuing the long-term mod-ernization of infrastructure and the improve-ment of security. The mission of Latvijas Gāze is to contribute to the Baltic region’s economy, by ensuring the safety of energy supply, the development of the sector, and competitive pricing.

Latvijas kuģniecība NASDAQ OMX RigaMain list

Energy

Company in brief

JSC Latvijas kuģniecība (Latvian Shipping Company - LASCO) is one of the leading companies in the global shipping indus-try with operations focused on handy-size and medium-range product tanker seg-ments, providing clients with highly quali-fied services that comply with international safety standards. Following the best Latvian maritime traditions, LASCO carries out safe and qualitative cargo shipments as well as offering technical management for interna-tional cargo shipping. Along with the above mentioned services, LASCO also offers pro-fessional education for its seamen, provid-ing training and crewing in compliance with international conventions for both its own vessels and vessels owned by other ship-ping companies.

The current optimism surrounding LASCO is based on a decision taken several years ago to renew the fleet, which has been imple-mented tirelessly. Over a three-year period, 14 vessels were launched from the “3.Maj” shipyard in Croatia and “Hyundai Mipo Dock-yard Co., Ltd” in Korea. This is an important signal to all of our business partners, dem-onstrating LASCO’s focus on development and increased service quality standards. The constant updating of the fleet has allowed the company to reduce the average age of its ships by more than half – from 17.5 years in 2005, to 6 years now. In accordance with LASCO’s development strategy for its tanker fleet, agreements to build four new ships have been signed.

In order to diversify its financial risks, LASCO has invested in liquid and exclusive real estate projects in some of the most valu-able areas of Latvia. The management and development of this new investment sphere is handled by LASCO’s fully-owned subsi-diary, LASCO Investment.

Nordecon International NASDAQ OMX TallinnMain list

Industrials

Company in brief

Nordecon International is a group of compa-nies offering general contracting and con-struction management services currently in Estonia, Ukraine and Finland. The competen-cies of these companies are broadly divided between superstructures (e.g. commercial, industrial and public buildings, residential development) and infrastructures (e.g. road construction and maintenance, environ-mental engineering and concrete works).

The group has a balanced revenue mix in all main segments of the construction market, coupled with experienced personnel and a strong reputation for service quality. The group holds an ISO 9001 quality management certificate (1999) and an ISO 14001 environ-mental management certificate (2002). It has won several awards from construction industry associations.

Nordecon International is a construction market leader in Estonia in several fields of work, and has a well-established pres-ence in the Ukraine since 1996. The group consists of more than 15 subsidiaries and employs more than 700 people.

The recent slump in the construction mar-kets in the Baltic States and Ukraine has forced the group to focus its attention on the Estonian market. Still, the group is preparing to resume more activities in foreign markets as soon as the situation improves, includ-ing those where Nordecon International has had prior experience (Latvia and Lithuania) as well as newer ones (Belarus and concrete works in Finland).

The leitmotif of the strategy for 2010-2013 is: “To respond to market changes swiftly and flexibly and to enter the next eco-nomic growth cycle successfully”. By the end of 2013, Nordecon International aims to become the leading construction group in Estonia, earning half of its revenues from infrastructure and the other half from build-ing construction.

Consumer Discretionary

Company in brief

Apranga group is one of the leading cloth-ing retailers in the Baltic States. The group develops its own distinctive retail con-cepts: Apranga, Aprangos galerija, City men&women, Mados Linija, and also oper-ates under franchising agreements with Zara, Hugo Boss, Emporio Armani, Erme-negildo Zegna, Max Mara, Mango, Bershka, Pull and Bear, Stradivarius, Mexx, S.Oliver, Tommy Hilfiger and Promod. At the end of 2009, Apranga group operated a chain of 109 stores in the Baltic States: 74 in Lithuania, 29 in Latvia, 6 in Estonia, with a total sales area more then 63 000 sq.m.

The company can trace its history to 1945, when it started business as a clothing and footwear wholesaler. In 1993, the retail chain was established and in 2004, Apranga group became a partner of Inditex Group in the Bal-tic States.

These actions sought to mitigate the influ-ence of the economic crisis, creating the preconditions for a stronger performance in 2010 and beyond, as the economy starts to recover.

Company in brief

Viisnurk NASDAQ OMX TallinnMain list

Consumer Discretionary

Company in brief

Viisnurk AS retails furniture and furnish-ings, in addition to producing furniture and building materials. The Furniture and Build-ing Materials Divisions are the business units of Viisnurk AS.

The Skano furniture store chain, operating in Ukraine and the Baltics, and a plant pro-ducing original home furniture made of tim-ber belong to the Furniture Division.

The building materials division manufac-tures and distributes two product catego-ries based on soft-boards: insulation and wind protection board under the Isoplaat brand name, and interior finishing boards for walls and ceilings, which are distributed under the Isotex brand name.

Viisnurk dates back to 1945 when the state enterprise, Pärnumaa Tööstuskombi-naat, was founded. In 1996 the Isotex pro-duction line was launched in the building material division. And in 1997 the shares of AS Viisnurk were listed on the Tallinn Stock Exchange. The company’s retail business started in 2003 when the first Skano furni-ture store was opened in Tallinn.

Rokiškiosūris NASDAQ OMX VilniusMain list

Consumer Staples

Company in brief

Rokiškio sūris is one of the largest and most modern dairy production companies both in Lithuania and the Baltics. The main activity of the company is producing and selling fer-mented cheese, fresh dairy products, but-ter, milk powders, and by-products from whey. The company produces around 30 000 tons of fermented cheese per year, of which 80% is exported to other countries.

The company was first established in 1964 as a specialized cheese manufacturing company. In a couple of years, it became one of the leading creameries in Lithuania, with its high quality products being well-known outside the country’s borders.

In 1992, Rokiskio sūris was one of the first Lithuanian companies to become a joint-stock company.

To secure a constant supply of raw materi-als and to strengthen its position in the local market, Rokiškio sūris affiliated several dair-ies and formed the Rokiškio sūris AB group. Currently, there are three sites of produc-tion: Rokiškis, where fermented cheese, milk sugar (lactose) and liquid whey protein concentrate are produced; Utena, which specializes in the production of fresh dairy products, butter and milk powders; while Ukmerge focuses on the production of quark and quark products.

Every year the company undergoes signifi-cant renovation and reconstruction, boldly introducing advanced technologies.

In 1998, the company was granted an EU vet-erinary number, enabling it to export its pro-duction there. Rokiškio sūris was the first dairy company in Lithuania to be certified as a safe food manufacturer. In 2001, the company was awarded an HACCP certificate, providing it with international recognition. In 2002, the HACCP system was introduced in the subsidiaries as well. The international certification company, BVQI, awarded the company and its subsidiaries with the qual-ity certificate, ISO 9001, and the environ-mental management certificate, ISO 14001.

Šiauliųbankas NASDAQ OMX VilniusMain list

Financials

Company in brief

Šiaulių bankas was established in 1992. Since 1994, when the first territorial subdi-visions of the Bank started their operation, Šiaulių bankas has expanded its network to 51 territorial subdivisions operating in 31 towns of the country.

Šiaulių bankas provides all the traditional services of commercial bank. It has a strong position in the sector providing credit for small and medium-sized enterprises. A pri-ority for the bank is financing municipal and regional projects, also expanding its ser-vices to individuals. Šiaulių bankas actively participates in state-supported credit pro-grams as well as suggesting new bank-ing products and sources of finance to its customers.

In 2010 Šiaulių bankas started implement-ing the JEREMIE initiative, financed by the European Investment Fund (EIF), accord-ing to which the bank will extend more than EUR 40m to small and medium-sized enter-prises. Seeking to improve crediting condi-tions, Šiaulių bankas has also participated in a state-supported program to modern-ize multi-apartment buildings - the bank became the first financial partner of the European Investment Bank (EIB) in Lithuania, using the JESSICA financial instrument.

The major shareholder of the bank is the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), which currently pos-sesses 22.44% of the authorized capital.

The fact that the bank actively participates in the credit market contributes to the increas-ing popularity in Lithuania of new models of fostering business, paying particular atten-tion to public, cultural and social projects. This leads to favorable conditions for the implementation of the Bank’s strategy – to grow organically and develop its activity in Lithuania.

Lietuvos elektrinė NASDAQ OMX VilniusSecondary list

Utilities

Company profiles: Lietuvos elektrinė

Company in brief

Lietuvos elektrinė was established on December 31, 2001, following the reorgani-zation of Lietuvos Energija. In 1972, the com-pany finished building the biggest thermal energy plant in Lithuania, with four energy blocks each generating 150 MW and four more producing 300 MW, in total 1,800 MW of installed power.

Lietuvos elektrinė manufactures, sup-plies and distributes electricity and thermal energy.

After the decommissioning of the first block of the Ignalina nuclear power plant, Lietu-vos elektrinė became the main producer of electricity in the country. In meeting grow-ing demand and in order to reduce the cost of electricity, a new 445 MW combined gas cycle turboblock is being built. The value of this project totals EUR 329m. The new turbo block is scheduled to be ready for 2012. The company’s technology allows for the burn-ing of other liquid fuels, like fuel oil and other cheaper emulsions in line with eco require-ments. This makes the company indepen-dent from any single fuel source. To ensure a reliable performance in the future, a num-ber of modernizations and repair works have been completed. Having invested about EUR 289m (LTL 1 bn) into its modernization during the last ten years, the company will serve as a reliable source of energy and power over the next ten years.

In 2010 the reorganization of the Lithua-nian electricity sector was launched, aim-ing to organize the country’s electricity infrastructure along EU lines. The reorga-nization plan comprises the establishment of four functional blocks of transmission, generation, distribution and maintenance. The goals in forming the generation block are: to purify and concentrate the activ-ity of generation in one company –Lietuvos energija (achieved by incorporating Lietuvos elektrinė into Lietuvos energija); to reorga-nize and centralize generation capacities, necessary to ensure the energy indepen-dence of Lithuania.

Lietuvosenergija NASDAQ OMX VilniusSecondary list

Utilities

Company in brief

Lietuvos Energija AB, established in March 1991, is the owner of a high-voltage elec-tricity transmission (330 – 110 kV) grid and, through its daughter companies, performs the activities of an electricity transmission operator, a market operator and other activ-ities in the field of electric power. The com-pany owns a dispatch center, two hydro power plants – Kaunas HPP and Kruonis PSP (ensuring the balance between generation, consumption and regulating power flows), 230 transformer substations and switch-yards, over 6 000 km of high voltage elec-tricity lines, and an information technology and telecommunications center.

In 2010 the reorganization of Lithuania’s electricity sector was launched with the aim to organize its infrastructure under EU requirements: to separate and purify activ-ities, improve the efficiency of the electric-ity system, promote energy independence, interconnect with the European continen-tal grid and integrate into the EU’s electric-ity market.

The reorganization plan comprises the establishment of four functional (trans-mission, generation, distribution and main-tenance) blocks. After the transfer of the company’s functions as a transmission system operator and market operator, the remainder of Lietuvos Energija AB will form the basis of the electricity generation block. Auxiliary functions will be transferred to maintenance companies. Lietuvos Energija AB will be the Lithuania’s largest electric-ity generation and supply company and will consolidate the country’s major electricity generating capacities, ensuring the elec-tricity independence of Lithuania.

The key changes in the sector are expected to be implemented by the end of 2010, with all legal and business processes completed by the end of the first quarter of the year 2011.

Rytųskirstomiejitinklai NASDAQ OMX VilniusMain listUtilities

Company profiles: Rytų skirstomieji tinklai

Company in brief

AB ‘Rytų skirstomieji tinklai’ (RST) is a rapidly developing company that distributes elec-tricity in the eastern part of Lithuania. The company provides services to 705 000 pri-vate customers and 25 000 business clients. RST owns and maintains the electricity dis-tribution system in eastern Lithuania, and is responsible for the reliability and quality of the electricity supply to end users, as well as developing, maintaining and moderniz-ing the network, ensuring adequate safety standards. In recent years RST has been among the top twenty largest companies in Lithuania.

RST was founded in 2001 after the reorgani-zation of Lietuvos energija AB.

Apart from distributing electricity through its subsidiary companies, RST also pro-vides other services in the Lithuanian mar-ket, including the repair and maintenance of the power network, and renting out special transport.

Providing a reliable electricity supply is one of the major objectives of the company. The priority remains improving customer satis-faction as well as introducing state-of-the-art technologies, developing client service channels and improving the quality of cus-tomer service.

RST aims to contribute to the welfare of the population, not only by securing uninter-rupted supplies of electricity and taking care of its employees, but also by highlighting the issues of electricity safety and rational con-sumption, and by initiating various social and environmental projects.

In 2011, AB ‘Rytų skirstomieji tinklai’ will be merged with AB ‘VST’. Together, both compa-nies will supply and distribute electricity to the whole of Lithuania. This merger will boost the combined entity’s performance, reduc-ing the numbers of administrative staff and premises, cutting costs and improving the efficiency of public procurement.
