Vaisala updates its strategy and raises long-term financial targets

Vaisala's Board of Directors has approved the company’s strategy and updated long-term financial targets for the next three years.

Vaisala’s strategy focuses on driving sustainable growth and global leadership in weather, environmental, and industrial measurements. Through its products and technologies, Vaisala enables business-critical decisions and operations for its customers. Thereby, the company strongly contributes to solving global challenges related to climate change, resource efficiency, and well-being and health.

Vaisala aims to be market leader in the markets where it operates. The company has identified four drivers for successful strategy implementation:

Product and technology leadership from sensors to digital solutions
Deep customer understanding and application knowhow
Scalability in high-mix, low-volume business
Engaged and talented people

Long-term financial targets

Based on the revised strategic objectives with raised growth ambition and focus on operational excellence, Vaisala updates its long-term financial targets. Vaisala's long-term target is to achieve an average annual net sales growth of 7% and an operating result margin (EBIT) of 15% during the strategy period.

Earlier Vaisala’s objective was profitable growth with an average annual growth exceeding 5% and operating result margin (EBIT) exceeding 12%.

Vaisala does not consider the long-term financial targets as market guidance for any given year.
