The measures were taken to reduce inventory levels and article numbers Highlights for the review period: -Net sales fell by 5.7 % and were EUR 48.2 million (51.1). The weakening of exchange rates was responsible for around EUR 0.8 million of this fall. -Gross profit was EUR 29.1 million (29.8) and 60 % (58) -EBITDA was EUR -6.3 million (-3.1) -Operating profit was EUR -8.8 million (-5.5). -Earnings per share were EUR -0.83 (-0.76) COMMENTS OF THE MANAGING DIRECTOR Managing Director of Tiimari, Hannu Krook: ”During the third quarter our actions to turn our sales to increase started to produce results towards the end of the review period, especially for Tiimari in Finland and Gallerix in Sweden. The revenue development continued clearly positive in October and I estimate this trend to continue throughout the last quarter. Tiimari in Finland school supply sales exceeded last year levels and the development in the sales in standard offerings continues to be positive during early autumn. Gallerix's sales have been ahead of last year already from July onwards. The shop coverage of the new product groups, like sweets, CDs and DVDs as well as toys is not comprehensive until the beginning of November. A part of our new product groups (Fiskars, Novita, Merilasi's Ratia collection) will be launched initially only in our biggest shops. The significant reduction in the inventory levels compared to last year reflects our actions regarding the improvement of stock turnover to be in the right direction. The reduction of investments and increasing stock turnover will enhance the operative cash flow for the rest of the year and reduce net gearing levels below last year's level by the end of the fiscal year. During the review period we ceased our operations in Norway according to our focused strategy and we sold the gift merchandiser Tiimore. The issued capital loan will enable a faster and broader supply of new product categories in our shop network and stabilises the company's financing.” GROUP FINANCIAL RESULTS Group net sales fell by 5.7 % and were EUR 48.2 million (51.1). The third quarter sales were down only by 2.7 % compared to corresponding period last year, which is a significantly better direction than the beginning of the year. Currency exchange-rate changes in the Swedish, Polish and Norwegian currencies reduced group net sales by about EUR 0.8 million relative to the comparison period. Tiimari's business is very seasonal, and the majority of both sales and profits accrue during the last quarter of the financial year. The third quarter gross profit was EUR 9.8 million (10.6), down both measured in euros and in relative measures. The company's executed program to reduce inventory levels and the renewal of the product offering have had a negative effect on the gross profit particularly during the third quarter, but simultaneously these actions have released tied up assets according to plan. The closing down of the shop in Norway also had a negative effect on the operating profit margin. The review period gross profit was EUR 29.1 million (29.8). The gross profit margin was 60 %, better than the comparison period (58). The Group's operating profit was EUR -8.8 million (-5.5). The net financial expenses for the review period were EUR 2.5 million (2.5) and the third quarter net financial expenses were EUR 0.8 million, down from the comparison period last year (0.9). The result before taxes was EUR -11.3 million (-8.0). The net result for the discontinued operations were EUR -0.6 million (0.1). Earnings per share were EUR -0.83 (-0.76). The earnings per share for continued operations were -0.79 (-0.77). The company has at the end of the review period tested its goodwill for impairment. According to the calculation goodwill was not impaired. OPERATING SEGMENTS TIIMARI This segment comprises all the Tiimari-concept shops in Finland and abroad. Net sales for the review period fell by 7.7 % and were EUR 38.9 million (42.2). The number of stores operated by the company at the end of the review period was 205 (194), of which 168 (158) were in Finland. The operating profit for this segment was EUR -5.9 million (-4.8). The weaker result was caused mainly by the lag in sales. Additionally, the third quarter seasonal discounted sales were now more aggressive as part of the project to reduce inventory levels and article numbers. The fixed costs were bigger than the comparison period last year due to the increase in shop amounts. The profit improvement programme initiated at the beginning of the year slowed down the increase in cost. The increase in the amount of shops as well as the trade union compliant pay increases in the spring increased significantly the rent and salary expenses compared to the same period last year. Then again, the shop base will enable us to increase sales and profitability as the demand increases.It takes between six and eighteen months for a new store to grow to full profitability depending on the market area. The development in the foreign shops is slower than for the domestic shops and in most markets the total result is negative during the first three quarters due to the seasonality of demand. Tiimari started its operations in Lithuania in the end of 2008. In Sweden, Tiimari has had eight own shops from the beginning of September of the review period and the amount has increased in Poland by two shops to ten shops after the review period. During the review period we withdrew from Russia and Norway and the effect of these markets on the results for the review period was negative. The demand in the Baltic and Poland declined significantly compared to the same period last year as so did the profitability. Tiimari's product categories were conceptualised in order to further strengthen our position as an arts & crafts and party shop. We will furthermore be strong in cards, gift packaging and office and school supplies. In order to boost sales, new product groups were introduced in order to raise customer numbers and increase the size of individual purchases and smooth out the seasonal changes in sales. The control of product flows and management of product groups were developed and the amount of article titles was reduced by five percent. The investments in the segment during the review period were EUR 0.7 million (2.3) and they were allocated mostly opening new shops, as previously agreed. The investment for the review period also included the acquisition of the business operations in Sweden (0.4). GALLERIX The Gallerix segment comprises the Gallerix concept stores in Sweden and Finland. The number of stores operated by the company at the end of the review period was 4 (2) in Finland and 11 (12) in Sweden. In Sweden most of the business is based on franchising, and there were 78 (79) stores run on this basis. Net sales for Gallerix increased by 5.3 % and were EUR 9.4 million (9.0). When calculated with unchanged exchange rates, the sales would have been about 11 % higher. Operating profit was EUR -1.2 million (-0.7). The rental and personnel costs for the new stores caused an increase in Gallerix's structural costs and the volume of business has not yet risen to a profitable level. In Finland there were 7 shops at the most during the beginning of the year and of those three were closed or joined to Tiimari to reduce fixed costs. To reduce costs four own shops were also closed in Sweden. The product group management was developed and the goal was to increase the Gallerix share in franchisee purchases as well as improve the profitability of the franchisees. In Luleå, a pilot project was initiated, where the Gallerix franchisee integrated Tiimari and Gallerix under one roof. Capital expenditure for the segment was EUR 0.2 million (0.4) and was mainly related to the opening of new stores. TIIMORE The board of directors at Tiimari decided in August to explore new options for the business gift merchandising operations. In September the business operations were sold to its operative management. Tiimore's revenue was EUR 1.1 million during 2008. In the deal, the entire personnel transferred as did part of the inventory and fixed assets. The price for the deal was about EUR 0.1 million. As part of the deal, the inventory was revalued and fixed assets that were not sold were removed. This resulted in costs of about EUR 0.2 million. Tiimore is classified as discontinued operations. PROFIT-IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMME At the beginning of the review period, the company announced a EUR 8 million profit-improvement programme covering savings in man hours, marketing and administrative expenses as well as measures aimed at increasing the margin. Furthermore, the cash-flow improvement programme aimed to reduce current assets and restrict capital expenditure. The profit-improvement programme was set in motion as planned in terms of cost saving actions. The euro-denominated margin improvements dependent on the level of sales were, as a result of weak sales, smaller than expected, but the gross-margin percentage increased by two percent compared to the review period last year. Marketing costs were EUR 0.9 million lower than for the comparison period. Savings in man hours were brought about and they reduced costs arising from the use of temporary employees. Store-related workforce costs fell in Finland by around 8 % from the comparison period. The Russian shops and the Norwegian shop were closed during the review period and they will cause only minor administrative expenses. The repatriation of the financial management saved EUR 0.5 million in costs during the beginning of the year. Capital expenditure during the review period totalled EUR 0.9 million (2.9). The level of current assets was EUR 20.8 million, representing a decrease of EUR 2.6 million from the start of the financial year and a decrease of EUR 6.7 million from the comparison period (27.4). BALANCE SHEET, FINANCIAL POSITION AND CASH FLOW Net working capital for the group was EUR 13.2 million. Net working capital at the end of the comparison period was EUR 17.0 million and EUR 10.7 million at the end of 2008. The net working capital is affected by the seasonal fluctuations in the operations, so that there is an increase during the year and a reduction by the end of the fiscal year. Current assets amounted to EUR 20.8 million (27.4) and decreased EUR 2.6 million from the beginning of the review period. Current receivables amounted to EUR 3.9 million (3.8), after falling by EUR 0.3 million since the beginning of the financial year. Current liabilities decreased by EUR 5.4 million to EUR 11.5 million (14.3) over the same period. Increased turnover of inventory is sought across the whole group. It is believed that the measures implemented will reduce the level of inventory by EUR 4.0 million by the end of the current financial year, as planned. Non-current assets totalled EUR 56.8 million (63.9), a decline by EUR 1.3 million from the beginning of the review period. Interest-bearing liabilities totalled EUR 40.3 million (44.9), increasing by EUR 6.0 million from the beginning of the financial year. The company's financial position was tight at the end of September. The capital loan issued by the company in October mended this situation. The equity ratio (equity to assets) was 30.3 % (33.6 % at end of the comparison period and 34.6 % at the beginning of the financial year). Net gearing is expected to decrease below last year levels by the end of the year. The company reached an agreement on the changes in the EBITDA loan covenants. The change affected the third quarter loan covenants as well as the convenants for the end of the fiscal year. A directed share issue was arranged in order to improve the balance sheet and financial position of the company. The resulting increase in equity amounted to EUR 6.1 million after a deduction of EUR 0.4 million in issue costs. This was recorded in its entirety in the invested unrestricted equity fund. EUR 4.4 million from the proceeds was used for the repayment of interest-bearing debt. Shareholder's equity per share was 1.53 euros (3.23). The cash flow from operations was EUR -11.6 million (-9.4). The cash flow was negative because the business made losses and also because of the decrease in current non-interest-bearing liabilities. Group capital expenditure amounted to EUR 0.9 million (2.9). This mainly related to expansion of the store network in existing market areas. PERSONNEL The average number of group personnel in the review period was 709 (680). The numbers have been altered to reflect the full-time employee equivalent. Most of the personnel were employed by the Tiimari segment in Finland. The majority of the personnel in the shops are part-time employees. The sales of the gift merchanidising business reduced the personnel by eight. SHARES AND SHARE CAPITAL Tiimari shares are listed on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki plc stock exchange.

EVENTS AFTER REVIEW PERIOD (Stock Exchange Releases 19 October 2009, 22 October 2009 and 2 November 2009 www.tiimari.com) The Company organised an extraordinary general meeting on 19th October 2009.

Arja Hautanen resigned from the Board effective 2 November 2009. SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES The global economic downturn is affecting consumer purchase behaviour and purchasing power in all of Tiimari's market areas. The economic recession and the resulting fall in demand has had and continues to have an impact on Tiimari's sales and profitability. Heightened competition creates pressure to adjust sales prices but is, at the same time, also expected to have a positive influence on purchase prices. Furthermore, unfavourable changes in purchase prices and exchange rates between the euro and currencies relevant to the business could weaken Tiimari's operating profit and its financial position. Tiimari's management has responded to the weakening demand, for example by rationalising the management of goods streams, adjusting the number of personnel in various areas, boosting marketing activities to increase the number of customers and the sum of purchases per customer in established stores and in new stores, closing down unprofitable stores, reviewing pricing and by pursuing increased efficiency of the Group in general. Furthermore, the Company has also launched a major profit-improvement programme in order to achieve its financial goals. Additionally, the Company has decided to focus its investment on the expansion and increased profitability of existing business operations. If the measures launched and already implemented should fail to bring the expected result, this might have a negative impact both on the Company's earnings for the current financial period and on its financial position. The company's operational risks and factors of uncertainty have been explained in more detail in the 2008 financial statements and no significant changes have occurred since. OUTLOOK Tiimari's full year operative profitability (earnings before interest, depreciation and amortisation and non-recurring items) is expected to land at last year's level. A reduction in inventory levels and investments will enhance the cash flow. The operative cash flow before taxes and financing items is expected to be clearly positive in 2009. Board of Directors Tiimari plc Further information: Managing Director, Hannu Krook - tel. +358 (0)3 812911, email: hannu.krook@tiimari.fi Distribution: NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Main source of information www.tiimari.com Tiimari Plc shares are listed at Nasdaq OMX Helsinki Plc. The Group comprises two retail shop concepts, Tiimari and Gallerix. The concepts operate nearly 300 shops in seven countries within the Baltic Sea region. Both concepts belong to the forerunners within their business segments. BASIS OF PREPARATION This Interim Report was prepared in accordance with the IFRS recognition and measurement principles, but in the preparation all IAS 34 standard requirements have not been fulfilled. The interim consolidated financial statements were prepared applying the same accounting policies and methods of computation, as in the financial statements for 2008. Financial figures presented in this document are not audited. All figures in the accounts have been rounded and consequently the sum of individual figures may deviate from the presented total figure. The figures in the tables are presented in thousands of euro. The application of changed or new standards (IFRS) starting 1.1.2009: IAS I, Presentation of financial statements, which has changed the presentation of the income statement and changes in shareholder's equity, application of standard affects presentation of group's interim report. Other applied standard changes do not have a significant impact on the interim report. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the management to use estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the amount of income and expenses. Although the estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may ultimately differ from the estimates used. The use of estimates affects the valuation of inventory, deferred tax assets, depreciation times of non-current assets and valuation of receivables. Additionally, the estimates affect the valuation of goodwill and brands. Inventory valuation is based on regular devaluation as follows: 30 months 25%, 36 months 50 % and 42 months 100 % and specific write-offs as needed. Tiimari's business is characterised by seasonality with the net sales being generated largely during the final quarter. Regular goodwill impairment testing is thus carried out at the end of the financial period. Goodwill shall be tested earlier during the year in case of an indication of significant changes to the expected cash flows of a cash-generating unit arising from occurrences in business operations or in the operating environment. Gross profit and gross profit margin % Gross profit is revenue less cost of goods sold and franchise leases. During the outsourced finance department the material and services included expenses from hired staff and franchise leases were reported in other operating expenses. These items have been corrected in the results of the review period according to the instructions on the calculation of gross profit
