Changes in Metso's financial reporting and the publication of its Financial Statements for 2013 on February 6, 2014

Changes in financial reporting
Metso will report Valmet (previously Metso's Pulp, Paper and Power businesses)
and Valmet Automotive (previously a Metso subsidiary) as discontinued operations
(IFRS 5) in its consolidated financial statements for 2013. The post-tax net
profit of discontinued operations will be presented as a single figure at the
bottom of Metso's income statement. Valmet's and Valmet Automotive's balance
sheets will not be consolidated into Metso's balance sheet. Earnings per share
for discontinued operations will be reported separately from continuing
operations, and Metso's equity per share at December 31, 2013 will exclude the
net assets of discontinued operations.

Valmet was split from Metso as a result of the demerger. Following the reduction
in Metso's holding in Valmet Automotive from approx. 61% to approx. 41%, Valmet
Automotive is no longer a Metso subsidiary. Both transactions took place at the
end of 2013 (Stock Exchange Releases dated December 30, and December 31, 2013).
