TALENTUM'S OPERATING PROFIT OF CORE BUSINESS TO FALL BELOW THE LEVEL OF THE
CORRESPONDING PERIOD 

Talentum's operating profit of core business for 2008 will fall below the level
of the previous year due to slower media sales, the integration expenses of
Talentum Fakta business acquired in 2007 in Sweden, and start-up expenses of a
new magazine. Previously Talentum expected the operating profit of the core
business to be on the level of the previous year. 

Talentum expects its net sales of the core business for 2008 to exceed the
level of the previous year. 

The operating profit of Talentum's core business for 2007 was EUR 13.6 million,
and the net sales were EUR 88.7 million.
