CapMan Plc's EPS for 2007 approximately EUR 0.23 according to preliminary figures


CapMan Plc Stock Exchange Release 16 January 2008 4.00 p.m.

CapMan Plc's earnings per share (EPS) for the year 2007 is expected
to be approximately EUR 0.23. EPS for the year 2006 was EUR 0.15 and
consequently the Group's profit before taxes for 2007 will clearly
exceed that of 2006 as guided earlier.

CapMan Plc's EPS for the period of January - September 2007 was EUR
0.25. According to the preliminary figures CapMan Plc's profit for
the last quarter of 2007 will be negative as a result of fair value
changes of fund investments. The changes relate to certain individual
investments and to funds' costs. As a whole the fair value of fund
investments has developed favourably in 2007 and the return on fund
investments will exceed their targeted annual return level of 15 per
cent.

The preliminary figures announced are un-audited. CapMan Plc will
publish its financial statements bulletin for the year 2007 on
Wednesday 31 January 2008.
