EIMO’S CEO RESIGNS

Eimo’s chief executive officer, Mr. Heikki Marttinen, has resigned from the company. It has been agreed that neither Mr. Marttinen nor the company will comment on the resignation. At the end of his notice period, May 1 2003, Mr. Marttinen will commence in the service of another company.

Mr. Timo Harju, M.Sc. (Engineering) (48) has been appointed interim CEO of the company as of today. Mr. Harju has most recently held the position of chief financial officer (CFO) and deputy CEO with Eimo. His previous experience includes executive positions in both general and financial management with the Ahlstrom Group. Eimo’s board of directors has immediately begun the search for a new CEO. The board also states that the non-executive chairman of Eimo, Mr. Jalo Paananen, and Mr. Seppo Jaakkola, Senior Vice President, Technology at Eimo, will actively support the interim CEO. By taking a more active role, Mr. Paananen wishes to ensure that ongoing important development and streamlining measures proceed as planned. “Eimo is on the right track. In a very challenging market, our nine month figures show an organic sales growth of 23% (growth of 94% reported), which exceeds the performance of our closest competitors,” comments Mr. Paananen.

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY-SEPTEMBER 2002

Figures are not audited

Third quarter 2002

— Net sales EUR 58 million

— Sales growth 35%, internal growth of 40%

— Operating loss EUR 0.5 million, includes appr. EUR 1.5 million of one-off costs

— EPS, diluted EUR –0.01

January-September 2002

— Net sales EUR 178 million

— Sales growth 94%, internal growth of 23%

— Operating loss EUR 2.2 million

— EPS, diluted EUR –0.03

Prospects

— Strong fourth quarter

— Full year in profit

Third quarter

Eimo’s third quarter net sales were EUR 58.0 million (EUR 43.1 million in the corresponding period in the previous year), and the operating loss EUR 0.5 (profit of EUR 2.4) million. Sales grew by 35 % compared to one year ago. Internal sales growth, that is growth in sales of Eimo excluding sales by its Eimo Americas subsidiary, was 40%.

The quarter’s loss includes some EUR 1.5 million of non-recurring costs resulting from the company’s efficiency program and consisting mainly of costs of closing Eimo’s plant in Georgetown, Texas and the reorganization of operations in Lahti and Hollola, Finland. The non-diluted and diluted earnings per share were both EUR –0.01 (0.03). The period’s cash used in operations was EUR 6.5 million and cash used in operations after capital expenditures was EUR 11.1 million. The geographical distribution of sales as a percentage of total sales for the quarter, based on the geographic location of Eimo’s customers, was 54% to Europe, 41% to the Americas and 5% to Asia. The significant increase in the proportion of Asian sales from their 1% level in the second quarter resulted from significant increases in sales to Asia from Eimo’s manufacturing units in all the three named regions. Customers in the telecommunications and other electronics industries represented 82% (77% in Q2/2002) of net sales during the quarter.

Within the third quarter, Eimo experienced rapid sales growth each month, from July’s EUR 15.1 million to September’s EUR 24.2 million. Low capacity utilization, especially early in the quarter and in the Americas, affected profitability. Compared to the poor second quarter, performance improved especially in Europe, where sales grew sequentially by 38% and operations returned to profitability.

Performance in January-September

In January-September 2002 Eimo recorded net sales of EUR 178.3 (92.0) million, which represented growth of 94%. The operating loss was EUR 2.2 (profit of 3.3) million and loss before extraordinary items was EUR 3.3 (profit of 2.0) million. The operating loss for the period includes EUR 1.7 million of amortization of negative goodwill, and EUR 0.4 million of amortization of normal goodwill. The non-diluted and diluted earnings per share were both EUR –0.03 (0.03).

The geographical distribution of sales as a percentage of total sales for the period, based on the geographic location of Eimo’s customers, was 47% to Europe, 51% to the Americas and 2% to Asia. Customers in the telecommunications and other electronics industries represented 81% of net sales during the period.

Compared to the same period in 2001, Eimo’s net sales grew significantly. Such growth was primarily due to the inclusion of sales from Eimo’s Eimo Americas subsidiary, but also reflected increased sales to Eimo’s customer base. Internal sales growth, that is growth in sales of Eimo excluding sales by its Eimo Americas subsidiary, was 23%.

During the period, profitability was hampered by excessive costs of some new programs especially in March-April, and surprisingly low volumes for some programs especially in May-July, leading to at times very low capacity utilization at some facilities.

This year’s depreciation of the U.S. dollar against Eimo’s reporting currency the euro has had a minor positive effect on earnings, and a minor dampening effect on reported sales.

Gross investments during January to September totaled EUR 17.0 (34.9) million. The largest cash investments were made in the Americas to introduce new production technology. Cash flow from operations was EUR 0.9 million, and cash used in operations after capital expenditures was EUR 17.0 million. The relatively high capital expenditures reflect some changes in the composition of Eimo’s offering to its customers, which now in some cases includes automated assembly equipment owned by Eimo. Full year capital expenditures are estimated to exceed EUR 24 million.

On September 30, Eimo’s cash and committed unused credit facilities totaled EUR 18.0 million. The equity ratio was 42.4% (48.0%) and the current ratio was 1.43 (1.53). Consolidated interest bearing net debt was EUR 57.5 million, and the balance sheet total at the end of September was EUR 177 (161) million. The changes in the financial position compared to end of June reflect on the one hand the rapidly grown sales, which have much increased Eimo’s working capital, and on the other additional financing arranged by the company.

Eimo employed on average 1903 (1046) people during January – September 2002. On September 30, the company had 1952 employees.

Efficiency program and other news from production operations

In order to improve capacity utilization and to achieve additional efficiencies Eimo made changes to its global production set-up and organization. In the Americas the company’s Georgetown, Texas molding operations were closed in September. In Michigan, the Battle Creek facility has been a main target of an efficiency drive. In Vicksburg, due to high demand and the need to arrange space for additional telecoms related work, the company’s old Vicksburg 2 building returned to service in May and has since expanded operations under common management and as an integral part of Vicksburg operations.

In Europe Eimo’s molding operations in Lahti and Hollola have been organized under one management. Tooling operations in Lahti and Hollola will be merged by the end of the year. In Asia, painting and improved mold maintenance has been installed to Shenzhen, and mass production of parts for mobile phones is expanding rapidly.

The costs of the efficiency program have been, and are being, expensed as they occur. The efficiency program is estimated to lead to yearly savings exceeding EUR 10 million per year, partly from having the number of personnel fall by approximately 200 people, with little loss of production capacity.

Management

Eimo’s chief executive officer, Mr. Heikki Marttinen, has resigned from the company. As of October 30, Mr. Timo Harju, M.Sc. (Engineering) (48) has been appointed interim CEO of the company. Mr. Harju has most recently held the position of chief financial officer (CFO) and deputy CEO with Eimo. His previous experience includes executive positions in both general and financial management with the Ahlstrom Group.

Shares and shareholders

The daily closing price for Eimo’s shares in the Helsinki Exchanges in the period January to September ranged between EUR 0.85 and EUR 2.39. The closing price on September 30, 2002 was EUR 0.90. On September 30, 2002 Eimo had 65,432,300 shares outstanding. The listing of Eimo’s ADRs on the Nasdaq National Market ceased on August 30, 2002.

Business prospects

Recent changes to unit volume forecasts for 2002 in the global mobile phone market have been small. Many recent estimates are in the 400 million unit range. Eimo continues to operate in an environment of little overall growth in its core market.

Based on October’s performance and current customer forecasts Eimo expects its fourth quarter sales and profit to be relatively strong. However, there remains uncertainty as to the actual sales and profit level in November-December, especially as a very large proportion of

4 (9)

sales in the fourth quarter comes from parts to recently introduced products. Fourth quarter sales are expected to be between EUR 68 and EUR 74 million. According to current estimates, the company will not reach last year’s level in full year pre-tax profits. However, even at the low end of the sales estimate, the company expects to show a positive full year pre-tax profit.
