TORONTO, Canada - Celestica Inc. (NYSE, TSE: CLS), a world leader in electronics
manufacturing services (EMS), today announced financial results for the third
quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2001.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001, revenue was $7,556 million,
up 20 per cent from $6,304 million for the same period last year. Adjusted net
earnings were $245.1 million, up 31 per cent from $187.2 million last year.
Adjusted net earnings per share were $1.08, up 21 per cent from $0.89 for the
same period last year. Year-to-date one-time pre-tax charges amounted to $136.6
million of which $76 million represented non-cash charges.

Reflective of weak end-market demand, revenue for the three months ended
September 30, 2001 was $2,203 million, down 15 per cent from $2,600 million in
the third quarter of 2000. Adjusted net earnings, which exclude the after-tax
impact of amortization of intangible assets, integration costs related to
acquisitions and one-time charges, decreased 23 per cent to $64.7 million,
compared to $83.9 million in the same period last year. Adjusted net earnings
per share were $0.27, down 29 per cent from a year ago. The company's guidance
for the third quarter, which was provided in July, was for revenue of $2.2 -
$2.5 billion with adjusted earnings per share of $0.27 - $0.35.

During the quarter, the company recorded a one-time pre-tax charge of $79.6
million. This included a previously announced restructuring charge of $43.5
million, as well as a non-cash charge of $36.1 million associated with the
re-valuing of certain assets, primarily goodwill and intangible assets.

Cash provided from operations in the third quarter was $450 million and
inventory, excluding the affects of acquisitions made in the quarter, decreased
$234 million. Cash at quarter end was $966 million.

 "The major impact on end-markets associated with the global downturn in
communications and information technology spending has created a challenging
environment but, we are responding in a focussed and effective manner," said
Eugene Polistuk, chairman and CEO, Celestica. "During this period, the
organization has been concentrating its efforts on reducing costs and improving
operating efficiency. We believe that by continuing with this approach,
Celestica will be able to further drive cost reductions for its customers while
still maximizing its operating returns.

"In this difficult environment, we have kept our balance sheet strong and are
generating positive cash flow from operations. We can't predict when end-markets
will turn around but remain committed to investing in strategic long-term
opportunities such as the recent expansion of our relationship with Lucent and
our acquisition of Omni Industries. The long-term outsourcing opportunity ahead
of us is significant and we believe we will be one of the key beneficiaries of
this trend."

Given the current end-market challenges, the company also announced that it will
incur further pre-tax restructuring charges between $100 million to $130 million
in the fourth quarter as it continues to balance supply with ongoing end-market
difficulties.

Although the current economic uncertainty is making it more difficult to provide
guidance, the company does expect to post sequential gains in revenue, margins
and cash net earnings in the fourth quarter. The company expects revenues in the
range of $2.2-$2.6 billion, and adjusted net earnings per share of approximately
$0.27-$0.35 as it starts to benefit from its restructuring activities, new
outsourcing agreements and recent acquisitions.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            (IN THOUSANDS OF U.S. DOLLARS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
                                   (UNAUDITED)

1.   NATURE OF BUSINESS:

     The primary operations of the Company consist of providing a full range of
electronics manufacturing services including design, prototyping, assembly,
testing, product assurance, supply chain management, worldwide distribution and
after-sales service to its customers primarily in the computer and
communications industries. The Company has operations in the Americas, Europe
and Asia.

     The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in Canada, with a reconciliation to accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States, included in the annual
consolidated financial statements.

       The Company experiences seasonal variation in revenue, with revenue
typically being highest in the fourth quarter and lowest in the first quarter.

2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     The disclosures contained in these unaudited interim consolidated financial
statements do not include all requirements of generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP) for annual financial statements. The unaudited interim
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000.

     The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are based upon
accounting principles consistent with those used and described in the annual
consolidated financial statements, except the following:

(a) In the first quarter of 2001, the Company adopted retroactively the new
Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA) Handbook Section 3500
"Earnings per share", which requires the use of the treasury stock method for
calculating diluted earnings per share. This change results in an earnings per
share calculation which is consistent with United States GAAP. Previously
reported diluted earnings per share have been restated to reflect this change.

(b) In July 2001, the CICA approved Handbook Sections 1581 "Business
combinations" and 3062 "Goodwill and other intangible assets". The new standards
mandate the purchase method of accounting for business combinations and require
that goodwill no longer be amortized but instead be tested for impairment at
least annually. The standards also specify criteria that intangible assets must
meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. The standards require
that the value of the shares issued in a business combination be measured using
the average share price for a reasonable period before and after the date the
terms of the acquisition are agreed to and announced. Previously, the
consummation date was used to value the shares issued in a business combination.
The new standards are consistent with U.S. GAAP.

     Effective July 1, 2001 and for the remainder of the fiscal year, goodwill
acquired in business combinations completed after June 30, 2001 will not be
amortized. In addition, the criteria for recognition of intangible assets apart
from goodwill and the valuation of the shares issued in a business combination
apply to business combinations completed after June 30, 2001.

     Upon full adoption of the standards beginning January 1, 2002, the Company
will discontinue amortization of all existing goodwill, evaluate existing
intangible assets and make any necessary reclassifications in order to conform
with the new criteria for recognition of intangible assets apart from goodwill
and test for impairment in accordance with the new standards. The Company is
currently determining the impact of the new standards. It is likely that the
elimination of amortization will have a material impact on the financial
statements.

     The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Company as of September 30, 2001 and the results of operations and cash flows
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000.

                                                                         more...

3.  ACQUISITIONS:

    The Company's business combinations have been accounted for using the
purchase method. The results of operations of the net assets acquired are
included in these financial statements from their respective dates of
acquisition.

     In January 2001, the Company acquired Excel Electronics, Inc. through a
merger with Celestica (US) Inc., a subsidiary of the Company. In February 2001,
the Company acquired certain assets located in Dublin, Ireland and Mt. Pleasant,
Iowa from Motorola Inc. In March 2001, the Company acquired certain assets of a
repair facility in Japan from N.K. Techno Co., Ltd. In May 2001, the Company
acquired certain assets located in Little Rock, Arkansas and Denver, Colorado
from Avaya Inc. and in August 2001, acquired certain assets in Saumur, France.
In June 2001, the Company acquired Sagem CR s.r.o., in the Czech Republic, from
Sagem SA, of France. The purchase price for these acquisitions total $309
million, subject to adjustments.

     In August 2001, the Company acquired certain assets in Columbus, Ohio and
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma from Lucent Technologies Inc. for a total purchase of
approximately $572 million, subject to adjustments. The Company signed a five
year supply agreement with estimated revenue of up to $10 billion over the term
of the agreement.

     In August 2001, the Company acquired Primetech Electronics Inc.
(Primetech), an electronics manufacturer in Canada. This acquisition provided
the Company with additional high complexity manufacturing capability and an
expanded global customer base. The former shareholders of Primetech received
0.22 subordinate voting shares of Celestica for each share of Primetech. The
total purchase price of $179 million was financed primarily with the issuance of
3,428,319 subordinate voting shares of the Company and the issuance of options
to purchase 268,299 subordinate voting shares of the Company. The share
consideration was valued based on the average market share price for a
reasonable period before and after the date the terms of the acquisition were
agreed to and announced.

Details of the net assets acquired in these acquisitions, at fair value, are as
follows:

     Other intangible assets represent the excess of purchase price over the
fair value of tangible assets acquired in facility acquisitions.

     In October 2001, the Company acquired Omni Industries Limited (Omni), an
electronics manufacturer headquartered in Singapore. This acquisition will
significantly enhance the Company's presence in Asia. The former shareholders of
Omni received 0.045 subordinate voting shares of Celestica or a cash payment of
S$4.25, for each share of Omni. The total purchase price of approximately $890
million was financed with the issuance of approximately 9.2 million subordinate
voting shares of the Company and approximately $475 million in cash.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            (IN THOUSANDS OF U.S. DOLLARS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
                                   (UNAUDITED)


     Employee terminations were made across all geographic regions of the
company with the majority pertaining to manufacturing and plant employees. To
date, a total of 8,201 employees have been identified to be terminated. As of
September 30, 2001, 6,229 employees have been terminated. The remaining
termination costs are expected to be paid out within one year.

     The non-cash charges for asset impairment reflects the write-down of
certain long lived assets in Canada, US, Europe, and Mexico that have become
impaired as a result of the rationalization of facilities. The asset impairments
relate to goodwill, machinery and equipment, buildings and improvements. The
assets were written down to their recoverable amounts using estimated cash
flows.

     The major components of the restructuring are estimated to be complete by
the end of 2002, except for certain long term lease contractual obligations.

     Subsequent to quarter end, the Company announced it would incur an
additional restructuring charge of between approximately $100 and $130 million
in the fourth quarter.

(b)  Other:

     During the quarter, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $36,084. This
is comprised of a write-down of the carrying value of certain assets, primarily
goodwill and other intangible assets.

6.   SEGMENTED INFORMATION:

     The Company's operations fall into one dominant industry segment, the
electronics manufacturing services industry. The Company manages its operations,
and accordingly determines its operating segments, on a geographic basis. The
performance of geographic operating segments is monitored based on EBIAT
(earnings before interest, income taxes, amortization of intangible assets,
other charges and integration costs related to acquisitions). The Company
monitors enterprise-wide performance based on adjusted net earnings, which is
calculated as net earnings before amortization of intangible assets, other
charges and integration costs related to acquisitions, net of related income
taxes. Inter-segment transactions are reflected at market value.

     The following is a breakdown of: revenue, EBIAT, adjusted net earnings
(which is after income taxes) and total assets by operating segment. Certain
comparative information has been restated to reflect changes in the management
of operating segments.
