Of course it's a BS reason. I'm guessing it was more like this:
Ryanair: "We want a new deal with lower charges."
Tampere: "Here's the best we can do."
Ryanair: "Not good enough. We want lower."
Tampere: "Sorry, we can't."
Ryanair (cracking knuckles): "Nice new terminal you've got here. Be a shame if it ended up... empty, know what I mean?" [Thinks: "the airport will have to cave. The loss of face otherwise, with a new terminal, would be just too much."]
Tampere: "No, sorry, that's the best we can do." [Thinks: we've given them a good price. Tampere to the sun in the winter is a good market. They won't leave.]
Of course it wasn't meant to come to this, but it looks as though someone miscalculated...
