CEO Ilkka Hiidenheimo

Our longstanding efforts to develop the business of the company and
to improve the efficiency of sales and cost management brought
visible results during the third quarter of the year.

The operating profit (EBIT) of the company was clearly positive
during the third quarter, or approximately EUR 0.5 (-0.5) million.
Also the net sales of the company increased slightly compared to the
corresponding period in the previous year.

I am particularly proud of the fact that despite the difficult market
situation we were able to grow our sales and thus also our market
share. Thanks to our employees' strong commitment and contribution we
also managed to significantly improve the profitability of the
company.

In our main market area, Europe, the product sales stayed on the same
level as during the previous quarters. Our sales in America developed
more positively than expected, but the sales in Russia did not meet
our expectations during this quarter.

The success is based on the extremely competitive product offering
that has been brought by our strong product development. The
performance of our newest StoneGate products meets the demands of the
high capacity networks of enterprises and telecom operators today and
in the near future. We have proven our ability to deliver
comprehensive network solutions, which meet the exceptionally high
demands of critical network environments and enable increased
efficiency and flexibility.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Stonesoft Corporation complies with the Corporate Governance
Recommendations for listed companies issued by the Confederation of
Finnish Industries EK, the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd and the Central
Chamber of Commerce in October 2008, as described on the web pages of
the company.RISKS AND BUSINESS UNCERTAINTIES IN THE NEAR FUTURE

In the current fiscal period, Stonesoft's main risks and business
uncertainties relate to the realization timetable of the sales
projects and possible productions disruption of our subcontractors
and suppliers. In addition to these factors, the general economical
uncertainty that has previously grown strongly seems to be
diminishing.

With regard to the development of the turnover and the operating
result, there is significant variation between the quarters in
comparison to the corresponding quarter during the previous year as
well as to the previous quarter as a consequence of, among others,
long sales cycles, a relatively big impact of individual deals, and
the variation between the quarters in the previous year.

Stonesoft's risk management as well as internal control and internal
audit are described in the company's Annual Report of 2008 and in the
company's web site in the Corporate Governance section.


FUTURE OUTLOOK

Companies will continue to network with their partners and
subcontractors, and this development will create even higher
requirements for network security and availability. At the same time,
the demand for outsourcing solutions and services will grow. Managed
Security Service Providers (MSSPs) have a growing need to provide
their customers with the possibility to track the status of their
network security while maintaining an overview of their own data
network. According to the company's view combining security and high
availability, which is the cornerstone of StoneGate product design,
will prove its strength even better in this development.

The convergence of voice, video and data on IP-based networks will
create more demand for capacity and drive the adoption of 10 Gbps
networks. The growing demand for added bandwidth together with new
protocols in the IP networks is expected to increase the general
demand for better reporting, monitoring and analysis tools. This
development will support Stonesoft in achieving its year 2009 growth
plan, since these are the cornerstones in StoneGate Management
Center's functionality.

The strong growth of virtualization has created a demand for ensuring
network security and business continuity also in virtual
environments. StoneGate products are better suited for virtual
environments than the competitors' products because they are based on
software solutions.

As security threats in the public sector increase, growing number of
government organizations have started improving their protection
against network attacks and for example cyber espionage. StoneGate
products offer comprehensive, centrally managed protection and suit
well to the needs of the public sector.

While the global financial uncertainty continues, companies need to
pay attention to the cost efficiency of their operations. This will
further strengthen the competitiveness of the StoneGate solutions and
emphasize the possibilities the solutions offer for generating
considerable cost savings in relation to infrastructure,
communications and operating costs.

Based on the existing sales pipeline and the already realized
operating result and net sales, the company expects the annual
operating result (EBIT) to be better than in the previous year (EUR
-2.3 million) and the annual net sales to remain at the previous
year's level. The net sales are expected to be EUR 24.3 million, +/-
EUR 1.5 million.

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

This Interim Report is prepared in accordance with IAS 34 standard.

Stonesoft Group has changed its bookkeeping practice regarding
consulting fees for consults working full-time for Stonesoft sales
and presales functions starting from January 1, 2008. According to
the new practice these fees are included in the other operating
expenses. The figures of the previous year have been adjusted to be
comparable with the new bookkeeping practice. In all other aspects
the Group has adapted the same accounting principles and reporting
standards as in the Financial Statement for 2007.
