PRELIMINARY INFORMATION ON FIM’S JANUARY-MARCH 2007 RESULT

According to preliminary calculations, FIM Group's total income in January-March grew by 9 percent to EUR 23.2 million (EUR 21.2 million in 2006).

FIM has changed its financial reporting from the beginning of 2007. Segment reporting covers the business areas FIM Asset Management and FIM Brokerage. FIM Investment Banking is no longer reported as a separate business area. FIM Asset Management’s total income in January-March was EUR 15.1 million (14.5) and FIM Brokerage’s total income EUR 8.6 million (7.1).

FIM Group’s January-March operating profit before a non-recurring booking for option costs was according to a preliminary estimate EUR 5.7 million (6.2). Due to the Glitnir arrangement, the option costs for FIM’s both option series that were originally scheduled for 4 years have now been booked in the first quarter of 2007. Operating profit after the booking for the non-recurring option costs was EUR 3.5 million. The booking of the option costs does not affect the Group’s shareholders’ equity.

FIM Asset Management’s January-March operating profit before the non-recurring booking for option costs was EUR 4.3 million (5.5) and FIM Brokerage’s operating profit EUR 1.7 million (1.4).

The preliminary information is unaudited.
