Development of currency rate and increase of interest rate decrease Componenta's
result estimate

Componenta confirms that the Group's net sales increases and operating profit
improves compared to the previous year.  Due to strengthening of the Turkish
lira and increase of the interest rate, the financial costs of Componenta are
expected to be higher than estimated. The result after financial costs,
excluding one-time items is expected to be approximately EUR 20 million. 

Componenta's interim report 1 January - 30 September 2007 will be published on
