Operating result was decreased by the considerable expenses related to the closure of the Beverly Hills store during the first quarter, a decline in the sales margins on wholesale sales, a downturn in the profitability of retail sales in Finland occasioned by a fall in the sales of prime stores, and an increase in design and marketing expenses. However, operating result was improved by an increase in royalty earnings in North America during the first quarter and by the additional sales of new stores. -- Marimekko continues to invest in growth while focusing on enhancing the operations of its company-owned stores, on developing online operations, on improving the general profitability of its business, and on creating even more attractive design and products. The second quarter in brief -- Net sales grew by 7 percent to EUR 23.4 million (Q2/2014: 21.9). -- Net sales at comparable exchange rates grew by 3 percent. -- Operating profit excluding nonrecurring items was EUR 0.3 million (0.5). Operating profit was decreased by a decline in the sales margins on wholesale sales and by an increase in design and marketing expenses. However, operating profit was improved by growth in discount-driven sales by outlet stores and online shop in Finland and by the additional sales of new stores. Financial guidance for 2015 The full-year estimate for 2015 is unchanged: Based on the market outlook, estimated sales development in the company's market areas, especially in Finland, the company's growth targets as well as other estimated factors, the Marimekko Group's year 2015 net sales are forecast to be at the same level as in 2014 or lower. Operating profit excluding nonrecurring items in 2015 is estimated to be lower than in 2014. President Tiina Alahuhta-Kasko:"Marimekko's net sales in the first half of the year were slightly better than anticipated. Growth was seen in both our international sales and net sales in Finland. Although the state of retailing in Finland has continued to be challenging, as estimated at the beginning of the year, the trend in our retail sales during the second quarter was better than expected due to growth in discount-driven sales. The additional sales of new stores and the strong dollar also contributed to the growth in overall net sales. "In the January-June period, the company's operating result excluding nonrecurring items was down relative to the same period last year as expected. Operating result was decreased by the considerable expenses related to the closure of the Beverly Hills store during the first quarter and a decline in the sales margins on wholesale sales. A fall in the sales of prime stores in Finland also weakened the result. Furthermore, investments in launching new collections and in digital communications increased design and marketing expenses. On the other hand, operating result was improved by an increase in royalty earnings in North America during the first quarter. "We continue our expansion in line with our internationalisation strategy, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region. This year new markets have opened up in Bangkok and Singapore as well as Dubai in the Middle East. Deliveries to Japan and the rest of Asia were on a good level in the second quarter, although sales for the whole year are forecast to be lower than in 2014. "The development of digital business is an important part of the current stage in our strategy. The trend in our online sales has continued to be positive and we will continue to focus on enhancing the customer experience to make it even more inspiring and more seamless between our online and offline stores. As part of this process, we are also updating our store and service concept. "In June, the first store deliveries were made of our autumn collection, which represents an updated trend that we hope will appeal to a broader clientele around the world. In the past year, we have worked actively not only on combinability, materials and cuts of the clothing collection but also on optimising the structure of the range. The goal is to enhance our product range to even better meet the needs of consumers and distribution channels in the various market areas.” Key indicators 4-6/ 4-6/ Change 1-6/ 1-6/ Change 1-12/ 2015 2014 , % 2015 2014 , % 2014 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net sales, EUR million 23.4 21.9 7 43.6 41.3 6 94.2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- International sales, EUR 10.4 9.9 5 20.8 19.3 8 42.1 million -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- % of net sales 44 45 48 47 45 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EBITDA, EUR million 1.4 1.6 -14 1.1 0.9 17 9.9 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EBITDA excluding nonrecurring 1.5 1.6 -4 1.2 1.6 -21 10.5 items, EUR million -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating result, EUR million 0.3 0.5 -43 -1.0 -1.2 16 5.6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating result excluding 0.3 0.5 -43 -1.0 -0.6 -48 6.3 nonrecurring items, EUR million -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating result margin, % 1.3 2.4 -2.4 -3.0 5.9 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating result margin 1.9 2.4 -2.0 -1.4 6.7 excluding nonrecurring items, % -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Result for the period, EUR 0.1 0.4 -75 -1.0 -1.1 12 4.1 million -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Earnings per share, EUR 0.01 0.05 -78 -0.12 -0.14 11 0.51 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cash flow from operating 1.7 -1.4 0.0 -0.8 9.9 activities, EUR million -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Return on investment (ROI), % -5.6 -6.2 15.6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Equity ratio, % 54.0 49.7 61.6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gross investments, EUR million 0.5 0.3 64 0.8 0.8 1 2.1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Personnel at the end of the 475 485 -2 479 period -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- outside Finland 114 114 129 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brand sales*, EUR million 42.5 41.1 3 87.6 81.3 8 186.8 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- outside Finland, EUR million 25.6 25.6 0 56.3 50.5 12 114.6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- proportion of international 60 62 64 62 61 sales, % -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of stores** 150 133 13 144 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The change percentages in the table were calculated on exact figures before the amounts were rounded to millions of euros. * Estimated sales of Marimekko products at consumer prices.

However, these difficulties are believed to be temporary. In Europe, the economic outlook has improved in respect of services and consumers in particular, whereas in the United States growth is forecast to slow in spite of expectations at the beginning of the year. However, employment has further improved in the United States. In China, exports collapsed in the early months of the year and growth has slowed to its weakest for many years. The Chinese economy is decelerating, which combined with a downturn in the stock market is providing new grounds for concern. In Japan, the figures are even worse than in the euro zone, but the forecast for next year has been raised somewhat. Economic recovery in Finland has not yet reached a tangible level. In Finland, retail trade confidence has taken another downturn after a small improvement in the spring. Confidence is strikingly low. Sales volume has continued to decline widely and expectations for sales are modest. The contraction of sales is expected to continue. Retail trade confidence in Finland was the weakest in the EU in May. (Confederation of Finnish Industries EK: Economic Review, 16 June 2015; Confidence Indicators, June 2015; Business Tendency Survey, August 2015.) In the January-June period of 2015, the value of retail sales in Finland fell by 1.3 percent and the volume of sales, which measures real growth, declined by 0.3 percent (Statistics Finland: Turnover of Trade, retail trade flash estimate, June 2015). INTERNATIONALISATION AND CHANGES IN THE STORE NETWORK Marimekko is undergoing a dynamic phase of internationalisation. In 2015, the main thrust in expansion is on openings of retailer-owned Marimekko stores, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region. The goal is to open a total of 10-20 new Marimekko stores and shop-in-shops. Of these, 1-3 would be company-owned stores. The company will continue to enhance the operations of company-owned stores opened in recent years and to improve their profitability. In the second quarter, four Marimekko stores and two shop-in-shops were opened. Of the openings, retailer-owned Marimekko stores in Bangkok (Thailand), Singapore and Taiwan are in the Asia-Pacific region. In the Middle East, Dubai saw the opening of its second Marimekko store. During the period, a retailer-owned store in Guam and a shop-in-shop in Singapore were closed.

Finland In the January-June period, net sales in Finland rose by 4 percent to EUR 22,784 thousand (21,993), which was attributable to 7 percent growth in retail sales. Comparable retail sales rose by 3 percent due to an increase in discount-driven sales by outlet stores and online shop in the second quarter. Comparable sales at prime stores declined by 5 percent. Retail sales in January-June were also boosted by the new stores opened in 2014 and 2015 plus a pop-up store opened at the Helsinki-Vantaa Airport for the summer season. Wholesale sales declined by 4 percent. In the second quarter, retail sales grew by 12 percent; comparable retail sales grew by 8 percent due to growth in discount-driven sales. Comparable sales at prime stores were on a par with the previous year's figure due to growth in June's discount sales. Also, the new stores boosted sales. Wholesale sales rose by 2 percent. Scandinavia Net sales in Scandinavia fell in the first half of the year by 2 percent to EUR 3,792 thousand (3,883).

EMEA Net sales in EMEA grew during the January-June period by 18 percent to EUR 4,413 thousand (3,739). Wholesale sales rose by 27 percent due to growth in deliveries to Belgium, the United Arab Emirates and France. Wholesale sales in the United Arab Emirates were boosted by start-up stock deliveries for two retailer-owned stores.

In the second quarter, retail sales fell by 32 percent; comparable retail sales grew by 1 percent.

Net sales at comparable exchange rates fell by 4 percent; both retail and wholesale sales declined. The downturn in retail sales was due to the closure of the Beverly Hills store in March and an 11 percent decline in sales in comparable stores. In the second quarter, retail sales grew by 1 percent in euro terms but fell by 20 percent at comparable exchange rates. Comparable sales by company-owned stores declined by 12 percent.

In the most important country in this market area, Japan, wholesale sales rose by 1 percent. Retail sales (Australian stores in Sydney and Melbourne) grew due to the additional sales of the store opened in the Emporium mall Melbourne in autumn 2014. Sales in comparable stores fell in euro terms by 4 percent and in terms of the currency of sales by 9 percent. The opening of a new store close to another Melbourne store impacted the comparable retail sales trend negatively. In the second quarter, retail sales grew markedly thanks to the additional sales of the Emporium store in Melbourne. Comparable retail sales fell in euro terms by 1 percent and in terms of the currency of sales by 4 percent. Wholesale sales fell by 1 percent. Japanese wholesale sales rose by 6 percent. FINANCIAL RESULT In the January-June period of 2015, the Group's operating result was EUR -1,031 thousand (-1,229). Operating result for the comparison period included EUR 669 thousand in nonrecurring expenses. The comparison period's operating result excluding nonrecurring items was EUR -560 thousand. Operating result was decreased by the considerable expenses related to the closure of the Beverly Hills store during the first quarter, a decline in the sales margins on wholesale sales, a downturn in the profitability of retail sales in Finland occasioned by a fall in the sales of prime stores, and an increase in design and marketing expenses. However, operating result was improved by an increase in royalty earnings in North America during the first quarter and by the additional sales of new stores. In the April-June period of 2015, the Group's operating profit was EUR 294 thousand (519). Operating profit was decreased by a decline in the sales margins on wholesale sales and by an increase in design and marketing expenses.

MAJOR RISKS AND FACTORS OF UNCERTAINTY The major strategic risks for the near future are associated with the weakening of consumer confidence, overall economic trends, and the consequent uncertainty in the operating environment especially in Finland. Near-term strategic risks also include risks related to the management of the company's expansion, digitisation of retail, and changes in Marimekko's design and product assortment. Marimekko products are sold in approximately 40 countries. The key markets are Northern Europe, North America and the Asia-Pacific region. There are Marimekko stores in 17 countries. In addition to Finland, Marimekko has company-owned stores in the other Nordic countries, Germany, the United States and Australia. The global economic cycle and factors of uncertainty affect consumers' purchasing behaviour and buying power in all of the company's market areas. The long-term problems in the global economy continue to dampen the prospects for retail as well as Marimekko's prospects for growth and earnings. Marimekko is undergoing a phase of extensive internationalisation and change. The distribution of products is being expanded in all key market areas. Growth is based on opening retailer-owned Marimekko stores and shop-in-shops as well as on setting up company-owned stores and expanding e-commerce. In recent years, expansion has called for larger or totally new country organisations, which burdens the cost-effectiveness of the company. Expanding the network of company-owned stores and building international e-commerce have increased the company's investments, lease liabilities of store premises and inventories as well as the company's fixed costs. Furthermore, partnership agreements, the choice of partners as well as store lease agreements in the company's key market areas involve risks. The company's ability to design, develop and commercialise new products that meet consumers' expectations while maintaining profitable in-house production, sustainable sourcing and effective logistics has an impact on the company's sales and profitability. Moreover, intellectual property rights play a vital role in the company's success, and the company's ability to manage these rights may have an impact on the company's value. Agreements with freelance designers and fees paid to designers based on these agreements are an essential part of the management of the intellectual property rights. The company's operational risks prominently include those related to the management and success of expansion projects, the operational reliability of procurement and logistics processes and information systems, and changes in the prices of raw materials and other procurement items. As a result of new products, the share of in-house production has diminished, and the company uses subcontractors for its manufacturing to an increasing extent. Therefore, the company's dependence on the supply chain has increased. Any delays or disturbances in supply, or fluctuations in the quality of products, may have a momentary harmful impact on business. As the operations are being expanded and diversified, risks related to the management of inventories also increase. Among the company's economic risks, those related to the structure of sales, increased investments, price trends for factors of production, changes in cost structure, increased operational costs, customers' liquidity, changes in exchange rates (particularly the U.S. dollar, Swedish krona and Australian dollar), and taxation may have an impact on the company's financial status. MARKET OUTLOOK AND GROWTH TARGETS IN 2015 Overall uncertainty in the global economy is forecast to continue, and this may impact consumers' purchasing behaviour in all of Marimekko's market areas. In particular, the situation in the retail trade in Marimekko's important domestic market, Finland, has remained difficult. Deteriorating consumer confidence, declining purchasing power and rising unemployment cast a shadow over Marimekko's retail sales expectations for 2015 and are reflected in retailers' increasing reluctance to replenish their stocks. In the first half of the year, comparable retail sales rose by 3 percent due to dynamic growth in discount-driven sales by outlet stores and the online store during the second quarter. In prime stores, comparable sales fell by roughly 5 percent. Since the end of the period under review, comparable retail sales have fallen by around 8 percent; comparable sales in prime stores have declined by around 12 percent. Changes taking place in autumn in the array of stores in Helsinki city centre will result in losses of retail sales during the second half of the year. No major nonrecurring promotional deliveries which would support wholesale sales are in sight for the remainder of the year. However, store openings in 2014 and 2015 are boosting sales. The Asia-Pacific region, Marimekko's second-biggest market, plays an important part in the company's internationalisation, and the company sees a growing demand for its products in this area in the long run. In recent years, new markets have been opened up in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the number of Marimekko stores in the region has more than doubled to nearly 50. In 2015, new markets have been opened up at least in Singapore and Thailand (Bangkok). In Australia, the outlook is bright, and Marimekko's retail sales have developed well, even better than forecast. Although sales in these countries are expected to grow, their combined share of Marimekko's net sales is still relatively small compared with Japan, which is clearly the most important single country for the company in this area. The appreciation of the euro against the yen and an increase in sales tax which came into force last spring impacted negatively on Marimekko's Japanese wholesale sales in 2014. This year and in the years ahead, sales in Japan are forecast to develop more modestly than in past years. Potential sales growth in the Japanese market will increasingly be based on organic growth which will be supported by the development of the operations of Marimekko stores in Japan and by changes that will be made in the company's product range. New stores will be opened at an estimated rate of a few per year. In the first half of the year, wholesale sales in Japan rose by one percent, but sales for this year as a whole are forecast to deteriorate relative to 2014. Due to the expected fall in Japanese sales, wholesale sales for the entire market area are estimated to decline in 2015 compared to the previous year. In the United States, the economy as a whole has been growing, but Marimekko's comparable foreign-currency-denominated retail and wholesale sales in North America are estimated to fall in 2015 on the basis of a weaker than expected trend in sales during the first half of the year. The appreciation of the US dollar will, however, boost sales markedly in euro terms. Nevertheless, owing to the loss-making nature of Marimekko's North American business, the appreciation of the dollar will impact negatively on the company's operating result in 2015. The Beverly Hills store was closed in March, which resulted in substantial expenses during the first quarter. Royalty income from North America is forecast to grow in 2015 due to a licensing agreement concluded with a North American company. Sales expectations in Scandinavia are modest. In EMEA, 2015 sales are being boosted by deliveries to two new stores opened during the spring in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates and by growth in wholesale deliveries to a few major retailers in Belgium and France. In 2015, the main thrust in expansion continues to be on openings of retailer-owned Marimekko stores. The aim is to open a total of 10-20 new Marimekko stores and shop-in-shops. Of these, 1-3 would be company-owned. Furthermore, the company will continue the operational enhancement and the improvement of profitability of company-owned stores opened in recent years. Changes in the business locations of company-owned stores may affect sales negatively during the current year. The expenses of marketing measures scheduled for 2015 are expected to be higher than last year, meaning more than EUR 5 million (4.7). The total investments for 2015 of the Marimekko Group are estimated as being in excess of EUR 3 million (2.1). The majority of investments will be directed at building new store premises and purchasing new furniture as well as developing IT systems in support of business operations. FINANCIAL GUIDANCE FOR 2015 The full-year estimate for 2015 is unchanged: Based on the market outlook, estimated sales development in the company's market areas, especially in Finland, the company's growth targets as well as other estimated factors, the Marimekko Group's year 2015 net sales are forecast to be at the same level as in 2014 or lower. Operating profit excluding nonrecurring items in 2015 is estimated to be lower than in 2014.
