Tiimari Plc         Stock Exchange Release 11 March 2010 at 08.30               


TIIMARI GROUP'S NET SALES IN FEBRUARY 2010 (preliminary)                        

Tiimari Group's comparable sales fell in February by about 2 % and were EUR 4.7 
million (4.8). From the beginning of the year the sales in comparable markets   
grew by 1 %. The segment and geographical market numbers have been made         
comparable by moving the countries where Tiimari has withdrawn from to a        
separate row (Tiimari Sweden, Russia, Norway and Poland). The sales for the     
Tiimari segment in Finland grew by 1 %. The extraordinary weather in February in
both Finland and Sweden reduced the customer flows and sales. Gallerix's strong 
sales growth in January balanced out and the growth from the beginning of the   
year is still 2 %.
