Marimekko's President and CEO Mika Ihamuotila:
“Strategic efforts were started up this spring with a view to developing
Marimekko's operations to achieve long-term growth and profitability. Marimekko
was prominently showcased in the international media in the first months of the
year thanks, for instance, to the company's co-operation with H & M Hennes &
Mauritz AB this spring. We will seek to benefit from the brand's international
visibility in our drive to expand internationally.
Trends in Marimekko's business operations were in line with expectations during
the first quarter of 2008. Sales grew in all key markets and profitability
remained at a good level. In Finland, however, almost all of the growth was
generated by substantial deliveries for one-off promotions. In exports, growth
remained brisk in all product lines. The result for the period was improved by
growth in net sales as well as a reduction in marketing expenses on the
comparison period. The earnings trend was weakened by increased operating costs
and a fall in royalty earnings from sales of licensed products.”
The company's interim report for the January-June period of 2008 will be
published on Thursday 21 August, and the interim report for the
January-September period on Wednesday 5 November.

MARIMEKKO CORPORATION'S INTERIM REPORT, 1 JANUARY - 31 MARCH 2008
ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34: Interim
Financial Reporting and applying the same accounting policy as for the 2007
financial statements. The information presented in this interim report has not
been audited.
NET SALES
In the January-March period of 2008, the Marimekko Group's net sales rose by
9.9% to EUR 18,594 thousand (EUR 16,912 thousand). Net sales in Finland grew by
5.3% to EUR 12,222 thousand (EUR 11,609 thousand). Exports and income from
international operations increased by 20.2% and totalled EUR 6,372 thousand
(EUR 5,303 thousand). Exports and income from international operations accounted
for 34.3% (31.4%) of the Group's net sales.
The breakdown of the Group's net sales by product line was as follows: clothing,
42.2%, interior decoration, 40.8%, and bags, 17.0%. Net sales by market area
were: Finland, 65.7%, the other Nordic countries, 14.3%, the rest of Europe,
8.4%, North America, 5.9%, and other countries (Japan and other regions outside
Europe and North America), 5.7%.
In the review period, sales in Marimekko's own retail stores in Finland fell by
3.8% (+0.3%). Sales to retailers in Finland rose by 5.5% (-7.0%). This rise was
primarily generated by substantial deliveries for one-off promotions.
MARKET SITUATION
Growth in the world economy slowed and consumers' confidence in the economy
weakened in all developed industrial countries. In the January-February period
of 2008, the value of retail sales in Finland was up 10.9% (Statistics Finland,
Wholesale and retail trade 2008, February). In the January-March period of 2008,
retail sales of clothing decreased by 7.3%. Sales of womenswear fell by 6.3%,
menswear by 7.3%, and childrenswear by 8.6%. Sales of bags rose by 0.8% and home
textiles by 7.5% (Textile and Fashion Industries TMA). In the January-February
period of 2008, exports of clothing (SITC 84) increased by 3%; imports remained
at the same level as the year before. Exports of textiles (SITC 65) rose by 8%,
while imports fell by 2% (National Board of Customs, monthly review,
February/2008).
REVIEWS BY BUSINESS UNIT
Clothing
In the January-March period of 2008, net sales of clothing rose by 1.7% to
EUR 7,838 thousand (EUR 7,708 thousand). Net sales in Finland fell noticeably,
while brisk growth continued in all key export markets except the market area
referred to as "the rest of Europe", where sales remained at the same level as
in the comparison period. Exports and income from international operations
accounted for 35.6% of net sales of clothing.
Interior decoration
Net sales of interior decoration products rose by 11.6% to EUR 7,588 thousand
(EUR 6,798 thousand). There was a notable rise in net sales in Finland,
primarily thanks to deliveries for individual promotions. Buoyant growth
continued in all export markets except the market area referred to as “the rest
of Europe”, which experienced a noticeable fall in sales. The greatest growth
was seen in Japan. A contraction in income from licensing operations both in
Finland and abroad had an unfavourable impact on growth in sales of interior
decoration products. Exports and income from international operations accounted
for 33.9% of net sales of interior decoration products.
Bags
Net sales of bags increased by 31.7% to EUR 3,168 thousand (EUR 2,406 thousand).
Growth picked up both in Finland and export markets. Sales in Finland received a
substantial boost from a delivery for a one-off promotional campaign. A strong
growth rate was maintained in all export markets except North America, where
sales remained at the same level as in the comparison period. Exports and income
from international operations accounted for 31.8% of net sales of bags.
Business-to-business sales
Business-to-business sales (previously “business gifts and contract sales”) rose
by 97.9%. This growth was primarily generated by a delivery for an individual
promotional campaign.
Exports and international operations
Exports and income from international operations rose by 20.2% to EUR 6,372
thousand (EUR 5,303 thousand). Growth was brisk in all markets except the market
area referred to as “the rest of Europe”. The major export countries were
Sweden, Japan, the United States, Denmark, Norway and Germany. The growth in
exports was partly increased by the timing of Marimekko's spring 2008
deliveries; relatively more deliveries fell in the first quarter in 2008 than in
2007.
Growth remained brisk in the market area referred to as "other Nordic
countries". Net sales rose by 28.3% to EUR 2,654 thousand (EUR 2,069 thousand).
Sales increased significantly in all product lines. The greatest growth was seen
in Denmark.
In the market area referred to as "the rest of Europe", net sales fell by 0.1%
to EUR 1,562 thousand (EUR 1,563 thousand). Sales of bags continued to grow
extremely well; sales of clothing remained at the same level as in the
comparison period; sales of interior decoration products fell noticeably.
Vigorous growth continued in North America. Net sales rose by 22.1% to EUR 1,098
thousand (EUR 899 thousand). The greatest relative increase was seen in sales of
clothing. Growth in sales of interior decoration products also continued to be
favourable. Growth in bag sales slowed, with sales remaining at the same level
as in the previous year.
Sales in all product lines increased dramatically in the market area referred to
as "other countries", in which Japan is the major export country. Net sales for
the period rose by 37.0% to EUR 1,058 thousand (EUR 772 thousand). In February
2008, Marimekko's Japanese partner Look Inc. opened a Marimekko concept store in
Sapporo. At the end of the review period, there were a total of eleven Marimekko
concept stores and shop-in-shop outlets in Japan.
Licensing
Royalty earnings from sales of licensed products fell significantly both in
Finland and abroad.
Production
In the January-March period of 2008, the production volume of the Herttoniemi
textile printing factory decreased by 9% on the comparison period. Production
volumes at the factories in Kitee and Sulkava remained at the same level as in
the corresponding period of the previous year.
EARNINGS
In the January-March period of 2008, the Group's operating profit improved by
21.8% to EUR 1,824 thousand (EUR 1,497 thousand). Operating profit as a
percentage of net sales was 9.8% (8.9%). The Group's marketing expenses for the
period totalled EUR 759 thousand (EUR 1,165 thousand), representing 4.1% (6.9%)
of net sales.
The Group's depreciation amounted to EUR 329 thousand (EUR 322 thousand), or
1.8% (1.9%) of net sales. Net financial income totalled EUR 23 thousand (EUR 16
thousand), representing 0.1% (0.1%) of net sales.
Profit for the period after taxes amounted to EUR 1,375 thousand (EUR 1,124
thousand), or 7.4% (6.6%) of net sales. Earnings per share were EUR 0.17
(EUR 0.14).
Sales growth and reduced marketing expenses improved the result for the period,
whereas the earnings trend was slowed by increased operating costs and a fall in
royalty earnings from sales of licensed products.
INVESTMENTS
The Group's gross investments amounted to EUR 137 thousand (EUR 500 thousand),
representing 0.7% (3.0%) of net sales. The major investments were made in the
construction of the Turku shop which will open in autumn 2008, as well as in
trade fair and store furnishings.

Equity ratio was 77.7% at the end of the period (73.3% on 31 March 2007, 72.7%
on 31 December 2007). The ratio of interest-bearing liabilities minus financial
assets to shareholders' equity (gearing) was -7.5%, while it was -4.5% at the
same time in the previous year (-15.2% on 31 December 2007).

EUR 841 thousand (EUR 2,212 thousand). The Group's financing from operations was

(exports and licensing sales), Sirpa Loukamo (clothing and accessories), Mervi
Metsänen-Kalliovaara (domestic wholesale, business-to-business sales, sales
development), Piia Rossi (company-owned retail stores), Kirsi Räikkönen (brand

RISK MANAGEMENT AND MAJOR RISKS
Marimekko's risk management policy and the major risks to the company's business
operations have been detailed in the 2007 Annual Report. No significant changes
in these risks occurred during the review period.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
The company's product planning and development costs arise from the design of
collections. Design costs are recorded in expenses.
THE ENVIRONMENT
Responsibility for the environment and nature is an integral aspect of
Marimekko's business. Co-operation agreements require Marimekko's subcontractors
and other partners to commit themselves to shouldering their environmental
responsibilities. In environmental matters, the company's business supervision
is largely based on legislation and other regulations. Marimekko's production
processes do not generate any waste that is classified as hazardous or
detrimental to health. The environmental impacts of production and other
business operations are monitored regularly by testing the materials used in the
products and developing production processes and operating methods. In late
2007, the company launched a project to develop a social responsibility
management system for the entire Group. This project will be continued during
the 2008 financial year.
MAJOR EVENTS AFTER THE CLOSE OF THE REVIEW PERIOD
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Marimekko Corporation's Annual General Meeting, held on 3 April 2008, adopted
the company's accounts for 2007, discharged the President and members of the
Board from liability, and approved the Board of Directors' proposal for payment
of a dividend for 2007 of EUR 0.65 per share, totalling EUR 5,226,000.00. The
record date was 8 April 2008 and the dividend payout date 15 April 2008.
The Annual General Meeting resolved that the company's Board of Directors shall
have five (5) members. Tarja Pääkkönen was re-elected to the Board of Directors.
Ami Hasan, Mika Ihamuotila, Joakim Karske and Pekka Lundmark were elected as new
members. At its organisation meeting held after the Annual General Meeting, the
Board of Directors elected Pekka Lundmark as Chairman and Mika Ihamuotila as
Vice Chairman of the Board. The Board of Directors' term of office runs until
the end of the next Annual General Meeting.
The Annual General Meeting also resolved that the remuneration of the Chairman
of the Board will be EUR 20,000 per year and the remuneration of each other
Board member EUR 15,000 per year. It was further decided that the President of
Marimekko Corporation will not receive any remuneration for being a member of
the Board.
The Annual General Meeting elected PricewaterhouseCoopers Ltd, Authorised Public
Accountants, as the company's regular auditor, with Kim Karhu, Authorised Public
Accountant, as chief auditor. It was decided that the auditor's fee will be paid
as invoiced.
FLAGGING NOTIFICATIONS
Morgan Stanley & Co Incorporated's share of Marimekko Corporation's share
capital and voting rights rose to 5.44%, or 438,083 shares, as a result of a
transaction made on 7 April 2008; and then fell to 0.90%, or 73,083 shares, as a
result of a transaction made on 9 April 2008.
OUTLOOK FOR THE REMAINDER OF 2008
Growth in the world economy is expected to slow in 2008. Marimekko operates in
an industry in which changes in the business climate are reflected in
consumption demand. In recent years, exports have increasingly been driving net
sales growth.
Based on the business climate outlook and Marimekko's business estimates, the
Group's relative profitability and net sales growth for the 2008 financial year
are forecast to remain at 2007 levels. Deliveries for individual promotions in
Finland and one-off income from sales of licensed products have a significant
impact on net sales growth and earnings.
