Vaisala Updates Strategy and Raises Long-Term Financial Goals

Vaisala’s board of directors has approved company strategy and updated long-term financial goals for the next three years.

Vaisala’s strategy focuses on sustainable growth and global leadership in meteorological, environmental and industrial measurements. Through its products and technologies, Vaisala enables its customers to make decisions and perform critical operations. Thus, the company makes a strong contribution to solving global challenges related to climate change, resource efficiency, well-being and health.

Vaisala aims to be the market leader in the markets in which it operates. The company has identified four factors for a successful implementation of the strategy:

• Leadership in products and technologies, from sensors to digital solutions
• In-depth customer understanding and application know-how
• Scalability in high mix, low volume businesses
• Committed and talented people

Long-term financial goals
Based on the revised strategic goals with high growth ambition and a focus on operational excellence, Vaisala updates its long-term financial goals. Vaisala’s long-term goal is to achieve an average annual net sales growth of 7% and an operating profit margin (EBIT) of 15% over the strategy period.

Previously, Vaisala’s goal was profitable growth with average annual growth above 5% and an operating profit margin (EBIT) above 12%.

Vaisala does not view long-term financial goals as market direction for any given year.
