EIMO OYJ STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 26.1.2001 AT 8.30 A.M.                    1 (2)

EIMO - PRELIMINARY INFORMATION

According to preliminary information Eimo's consolidated net sales in 2000 were
EUR 105.5 million, operating profit EUR 13.7 million and profit before taxes EUR
12.7 million.

While sales were in line with the most recent company estimate, profits were
over EUR 2 million below expectations, primarily because of customer induced,
non-recurring excessive costs in  product programs, part of which costs are not
expected to be reimbursed to Eimo.  Additional expenses, which also contributed
to the reduction in anticipated profits for the year, included the write-down of
certain inventory and additional costs related to the company's international
expansion.

The preliminary information has not been audited and is not based on financial
statements approved by the Board of Directors. Eimo's financial statement
bulletin will be published on February 15, 2001.
