Tiimari's President Hannu Krook:                                                

“The first quarter was disappointing in terms of sales. However, some signs of  
revival are already visible, as the Easter and May Day sales were considerably  
stronger than the figures at the beginning of the year. The results of the newly
launched profit improvement programme have not been translated into the result  
thus far, but measures are being implemented as planned and the impacts will    
become visible during the following periods. Our focus is now on developing     
Tiimari and Gallerix concepts. We are now concentrating particularly on sales   
promotion measures, and developing retail operations will be our key focus area 
over the next few months. We will invest in and pursue sales growth by          
integrating Gallerix' product portfolio in the Tiimari concept. Actions reducing
working capital include a major effort targeted on inventory values."

GROUP FINANCIALS                                                                

Consolidated net sales decreased by 12% to MEUR 15.6 (17.7). Easter is the   
second most important season for Tiimari. In 2009, Easter sales took place three
weeks later than during the comparison year, which had a significant impact on  
the development of net sales and accrual of earnings during the period under    
review. The total Easter sales was 6 per cent less than last years and thus the 
development was considerably better than during the first quarter so far.       
Currency exchange rate changes in the Swedish, Polish and Norwegian currencies  
reduced net sales by about EUR 0.6 million during the period. The business is   
very seasonal and the major part of both sales and profits accrue during the    
last quarter of the financial year.                                             

Consolidated operating profit stood at MEUR -3.4 (-1.3). The operating profit of
the comparison period included a non-recurring gain on the sale of fixed assets 
in the amount of MEUR 0.89                                                      

Net financial expenses during the period under review amounted to               
MEUR 0.8 (0.8). Result before and after taxes totalled at MEUR -4.3(-2.1) and   
MEUR 4.2 (-2.0), respectively. Earnings per share totalled EUR -0.37 (0.20).    




OPERATING SEGMENTS                                                              

TIIMARI                                                                         

Tiimari -segment is concised of the Tiimari-concept shops in Finland and abroad.
The segment sales for the quarter decreased 13 per cent and was EUR 12.5 million
(14.4). The own shops numbered 206 (182) and 167 of them were in Finland (157). 
The slowness of sales was due to both the general slowness in demand and the in 
comparison to last year - three weeks later start of the Easter season. The     
general economic development in Tiimari's foreign market areas was poor during  
the first quarter. The four shops in Russia were closed during the review period
and the business in St. Petersburg ceased.                                      

The segment operating profit was EUR -2.6 million (-1.7). The profits were      
deteriorated mainly due to reduced sales. It takes from half a year to one and a
half years for a shop to grow to full profitability and the development abroad  
is slower than in the home market.                                              

The segments capital expenditure was EUR 0.4 million (0.5) and was mainly       
related to openings of new shops.                                               


GALLERIX                                                                        

Gallerix-segment is concised of the Gallerix -concept shops in Sweden and       
Finland. The own shops numbered 7 (2) in Finland and 14 (5) in Sweden. In Sweden
most of the business is based on franchising and there are 79 (87) shops run by 
franchisees. Gallerix net sales were EUR 3.0 million (3.2). Calculated with     
unchanged exchange rates the sales would have been about EUR 0.4 million higher.
The operating profit was EUR -0.4 million (-0.2). New shop openings weighed down
the profitability numbers.                                                      

The segments capital expenditure was EUR 0.2 million (0.1) and was mainly       
related to openings of new shops.                                               

TIIMORE                                                                         

The weak economic climate reflected strongly in Tiimore's business gift sales as
customers began to economise. Tiimore's net sales amounted to MEUR 0.2 (0.2),   
the operating profit totalling MEUR ‑0.1 (0.4). The operating profit for the    
comparison period included MEUR 0.9 in non-recurring items resulting from the   
the gain on sale of the property. Adjusted operating profit for first quarter   
2008 was EUR -0.5 million.                                                      

PROFIT IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMME                                                    

At the beginning of the period under review, the company announced a MEUR 8.0   
profit improvement programme covering savings in person hours and marketing and 
administrative expenses as well as measures designed for an increased           
contribution margin. Furthermore, the cash flow improvement programme included  
the objective of reducing inventories and restricting investment. The profit    
improvement programme was set in motion as planned.                             
Price adjustments and reduction of logistics expenses improved the gross margin 
of the first quarter. The gross margin percent was about 8 percentage points    
higher than during the respective period last year.                             
The capital expenditure during the period totalled EUR 0.6 million (0.6). The   
total capital expenditure during 2009 will be less than during 2008.  The level 
of inventories was EUR 22.9 million, representing a decrease of EUR 0.5 million 
over the turn of the financial year and a decrease of EUR 3.3 million over the  
comparison period (26.2).                                                       

FINANCING AND CASHFLOW

cover even Gallerix activities. Non-current assets totalled EUR 57.8 million    
(61.9).

non-interest-bearing debt.

FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS                                                          

The company has amortized its long-term loans with EUR 1 million and its        
short-term loans with EUR 1,9 million after the close of the review period. EUR 
6 million of loans are booked in current debt as the company broke loan         
covenants at the end of the period, the company has since renegotiated the loan.
The company is also re-negotiating its current short-term loans and the         
negotiations are expected to be finalized by end of May.                        

SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES                                              

The global economic downturn influences consumer purchase behaviour and         
purchasing power in all Tiimari's markets. The economic recession and the       
resulting fall in demand has had and continues to have an impact on the         
Company's sales and profitability. Heightened competition creates pressure to   
adjust sales prices but is, at the same time, also expected to have a positive  
influence on the development of purchase prices. Furthermore, changes in        
purchase prices and exchange rates between the business-relevant currencies and 
the euro, which may have a negative effect on the Company, could encumber the   
Company's operating profit and weaken its financial position.                   

Tiimari's management has responded to the weakening demand e.g. by rationalising
material flow management processes and adjusting the number of personnel in     
various duties, by intensifying marketing activities to increase the number of  
customers and the sum of one-time purchases in well-established and new stores, 
by closing down unprofitable stores, reviewing pricing and by pursuing increased
efficiency of the Group in general. Furthermore, the Company has also launched a
major profit improvement programme in order to achieve its financial goals.     
Additionally, the Company has decided to focus its investment mainly on the     
expansion and increased profitability of existing business operations. If the   
launched and implemented measures should fail to bring the expected result, this
might have a negative impact both on the Company's earnings for the current     
financial period and the Company's financial position.                          


PROSPECTS                                                                       

Tiimari's business has traditionally not been sensitive to economic fluctuations
as compared with many other market operators. The economic situation of         
Tiimari's market areas is experiencing a downturn and the demand has weakened.  
This is expected to have a greater impact on Tiimari's performance than before. 
The company is able to respond to the more extensive impact of the weakened     
consumer demand by pulling out from Russia for the time being and by focusing   
strictly on improving the profitability of the existing core business.          

The Group's MEUR 8.0 profit improvement programme was set in motion as planned. 
The effects of the programme are expected to be reflected both on the company's 
profitability and the cash flows from operations most strongly after the second 
and, particularly after the third quarter.                                      

The Shareholders' Equity of the company was increased with about EUR 6 million  
as the directed issue resolved on April 23, 2009 was carried through. The       
company has used EUR 1 million of the funds to amortize its long-term loans and 
EUR 1,9 million to amortize its short-term loans.                               

The Board of Directors estimates that the above-mentioned measures for increased
profitability and strengthened balance sheet shall enable the company - despite 
the weakening general economic climate - to improve significantly the           
profitability of its operations and to generate clearly positive cash flows from
operations during 2009.

Tiimari Plc is a listed company. The group consists of three retail shop        
concepts: Tiimari, Gallerix and Paperazzi. These three concepts do business in  
eight countries within the Baltic Sea region and there are altogether nearly 300
shops. All three concepts belong to the forerunners of their market segment. In 
the corporation there is also a company called Tiimore Oy which specializes in  
corporate gifts and sales promotion solutions.                                  


BASIS OF PREPARATION                                                            

This Interim Report was prepared in accordance with the IFRS recognition and    
measurement principles, although all requirements of the IAS 34 standard have   
not been followed. The interim consolidated financial statements were prepared  
applying the same accounting policies and methods of computation as in the      
financial statements for 2008. Financial figures presented in this document are 
not audited.                                                                    

All figures in the accounts have been rounded and consequently the sum of       
individual figures may deviate from the presented total figure. The figures in  
the tables are presented in thousands of euros.                                 

Use of Estimates:                                                               

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the    
management to use estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of     
assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities and the amount of income and expenses. Although the estimates are   
based on the management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual  
results may ultimately differ from the estimates used.                          

The use of estimates affects the valuation of inventory, deferred tax assets,   
depreciation times of non-current assets and valuation of receivables. Inventory
valuation is based on regular devaluation as follows: 30 months 25%, 36 months  
25% and 42 months 50% and specific write-offs as needed.                        

Tiimari's business is characterised by seasonality with the net sales being     
generated largely during the final quarter. Regular goodwill impairment testing 
is thus carried out at the end of the financial period. Goodwill shall be tested
earlier during the year in case of an indication of significant changes to the  
expected cash flows of a cash-generating unit arising from occurrences in       
business operations or in the operating environment.                            

Adoption of new and changed standards as from January 1, 2009:                  
- IAS 1, Presentation of the financial statements (changed). The standard       
  affects the presentation of financial statements in the quarterly report.     
- IAS 23, Borrowing costs (changed). The standard requires that borrowing costs 
  attributable to the acquisition of certain assets be included in their        
  acquisition costs. The change does not materially affect the financial        
  statements for the review period as Tiimari does not have long-term investment
  projects that would give rise to respective financing costs.                  

Tiimari Plc has adopted the IFRS 8 standard (Operating Segments) as of          
1 January 2008. Segment reporting in this intermediary report has been made in  
accordance with the segment definition in annual closing 2008 and the figures   
for the comparison period have been revised accordingly.                        

The new and changed standards and interpretations do not have a material affect 
in the report.
