Preliminary information on Vaisala's financial statements for year 2009


Vaisala Oyj  Stock exchange release     3 February 2010 at 10:10 am


As stated earlier, our view is that net sales in 2009 will be slightly lower
than in 2008, being approximately EUR 232 million. Vaisala estimates the
operating profit to be approximately EUR 12 million and the earnings per share
EUR 0.38. The operating profit is affected by declined gross margin due to the
lower net sales, extra costs of some delivery projects, strategic, growth
oriented efforts and one-off costs associated to the acquisition of Quixote
Transportation Technologies at the end of 2009.

The numbers stated here are unaudited and not based on financial statements
signed by the Board of Directors.

Vaisala Oyj's financial statements for 2009 will be published on 19 February
2010.
