Comments on the second quarter
Net sales in the second quarter were slightly higher than in the corresponding
period last year, but the result was negative. Vaisala announced preliminary
information about second quarter net sales and result as well as full year
result with a stock exchange release on June 23, 2010.
The net sales and result were affected by shipment delays in May-June. The
result was additionally burdened by EUR 2.4 million one-off costs from personnel
reductions, booked in the second quarter. The combined impact of these costs on
the second quarter net sales was approximately EUR 11 million, and on the
operating profit approximately EUR 8 million.
Also the growth initiatives, one-off costs from acquisitions and the costs from
the ERP project burdened the result.
Orders received and the order book were at a higher level than a year ago.
On April 1, 2010 Vaisala acquired Veriteq Instruments Inc, a Canadian company
operating in the life science markets.
Business outlook
Uncertainty of the global economy and shifts in exchange rates are still
expected to affect Vaisala's business. Due to the structure of Vaisala's
customer base and the orders received, the company's market situation is
expected to remain mostly unchanged in 2010.
We reiterate our estimate that Vaisala's net sales in 2010 will grow slightly
compared to the preceding year. However, uncertainty relating to the net sales
and profitability towards the rest of the year remains. The development programs
will continue to burden the result for the rest of the year. Hence Vaisala
estimates, in line with the preliminary information published on June 23, 2010,
that the full year profitability will be slightly lower than in the previous
year.
Vaisala's long term business outlook has not changed and the company is still
fully committed to implementing its growth strategy.
President and CEO Kjell Forsén on Vaisala's result:"The value of orders received developed favorably during the review period.
However, our profitability was lower than a year ago because the costs from the
ongoing efficiency program were booked on the second quarter. Additionally the
ongoing development initiatives, especially the ERP implementation, affected our
delivery capabilities and thus the net sales and result for the second quarter.
Our delivery capability is now being restored and we strive to catch up the
delay during the rest of the year.
The efficiency program aims at improving Vaisala's profitability and
competitiveness. It relates to Vaisala's transformation to a customer-oriented
growth company that takes advantage of industrial scale in sourcing,
manufacturing and product platforms. The objective is to decrease manufacturing
costs but maintain high and consistent quality. Growth is sought by increasing
the share of industrial customers of the whole customer base. Vaisala will focus
on selected customer segments and the offering is complemented also by
acquisitions. A central part of the ongoing change is the new ERP system, which
is currently in the implementation phase.
Savings are achieved through personnel reductions, reductions in the use of
professional services, more efficient sourcing and reduced travel costs. In
terms of personnel reductions, the consultation processes were completed in
June. The measures agreed in the negotiations are expected to bring
approximately EUR 11 million savings annually, starting in 2011. The related
one-off costs of EUR 2.4 million were booked in the second quarter. The ongoing
improvement initiatives continue to burden our result during the rest of the
year, which is why our full year profitability will be lower than in the
preceding year. Implementing these changes is however necessary to ensure
Vaisala's competitiveness going forward.
In April, we took an important step by acquiring Veriteq, a Canadian company
operating in the Life Science market. The deal strengthens our position in these
markets and we were able to see growth already in the second quarter. As a
result of the acquisition, the Cleanrooms and Chambers market segment will focus
on Life Science and High Technology markets and the segment name will be changed
accordingly.
We continue implementing our growth strategy and I believe that through the
current changes we are able to further strengthen our position as the leading
provider of environmental measurements."
Market situation, net sales and order book
The review period was positive for the Controlled Environment business area.
Uncertainty of the global economy is still reflected in the Meteorology and
Weather Critical Operations businesses, even though the net sales of the latter
grew.
Vaisala did not receive any big orders during January-June. Market shares remain
unchanged.
Vaisala Group's net sales grew by 8.5 percent year-on-year and totaled EUR
104.0 (95.9) million. Net sales of the QTT company, acquired in December 2009,
were EUR 4.8 million and of the Veriteq company, acquired in April 2010, EUR
1.2 million. The organic growth of net sales, excluding the impact of QTT and
Veriteq was 2.3 percent. In comparable currencies and excluding the QTT and
Veriteq sales, Vaisala Group's net sales would have grown by 0.6 percent.
Net sales of the Weather Critical Operations business area grew by 25.1 percent
(organically 4.9 percent) and Controlled Environment by 9.8 percent (organically
4.9 percent). Net sales of the Meteorology business area declined by 10.1
percent.
Operations outside Finland accounted for 98 (97) percent of net sales.
Net sales in euros grew by 16.0 percent in the APAC region to EUR 24.5 (21.2)
million, in the EMEA region by 8.7 percent to EUR 38.1 (35.1) million and in the
Americas region by 4.3 percent to EUR 41.3 (39.6) million.
The value of orders received increased by 10.6 percent year-on-year and totaled
EUR 131.8 (119.2) million.
The order book at the end of the review period stood at EUR 123.3 (113.7)
million. Of the order book, approximately EUR 41 million will be delivered in
2011 or later.
Performance and balance sheet
Operating profit for the review period was EUR -11.1 (-1.7) million or -10.7
percent of net sales. The comparable operating profit excluding QTT and Veriteq
was EUR -8.3 million.
The net sales and result were affected by shipment delays in May-June. The
result was additionally burdened by EUR 2.4 million one-off costs from personnel
reductions, booked in the second quarter. The combined impact of these costs on
the second quarter net sales was approximately EUR 11 million, and on the
operating profit approximately EUR 8 million.
The operating profit was also burdened by low sales margins especially relating
to weather businesses in the emerging markets. Additionally, research and
development costs, one-off acquisition and reorganization costs as well as costs
related to the ERP project lowered the result.
Profit before taxes was EUR -7.1 (-3.6) million or -6.8 percent of net sales.
Net profit for the review period was EUR -4.8 (-2.3) million, or -4.6 percent of
net sales.
Vaisala Group's solvency ratio and liquidity remained strong. On June 30, 2010,
the balance sheet total was EUR 231.9 (213.1) million. The Group's solvency
ratio at the end of the review period was 79 (84) percent.
The cash flow from business operations was EUR 9.9 (-7.5) million. Vaisala's
consolidated liquid assets totaled EUR 34.6 (68.8) million.
Capital expenditure
Gross capital expenditure totaled EUR 18.9 (9.4) million.
On April 1, 2010 Vaisala acquired Veriteq Instruments Inc, a Canadian company
operating in the life science markets.
The value of the deal was EUR 8.5 million, including a conditional purchase
price of EUR 0.7 million. The deal significantly strengthens Vaisala's position
in the life science markets, complementing the current competences and product
offering. According to preliminary calculations, these synergy benefits have
accrued to approximately EUR 4 million goodwill.
The gradual implementation of Vaisala's new ERP system is continuing during this
and next year.
The project to build new office space in Vantaa, Finland, is progressing
according to plan. The estimated date of accomplishment is at the end of 2010.
Meteorology
Net sales of the Meteorology business area declined by 10.1 percent year-on-year
to EUR 31.1 (34.6) million. In comparable currencies, the net sales would have
declined by 12.0 percent. Operating profit for the review period was EUR -3.9
(-0.8) million.
The one-off costs from personnel reductions for Meteorology were EUR 0.9
million. The combined one-off impact of these and the shipment delays on the net
sales was EUR 2 million and on the operating profit EUR 1.8 million.
Lower net sales in Meteorology were due to the fact that there were no large
project deliveries in January-June. The subsequent decline in sales volumes
lowered the profitability of this business. The profitability of project
business is typically low in the emerging markets in a market-entry phase.
The value of orders received for Meteorology was EUR 44.2 (44.7) million and the
order book stood at EUR 49.7 million at the end of the review period.
Controlled Environment
On April 1, 2010 Vaisala acquired Veriteq Instruments Inc, a Canadian company
operating in the life science markets.
Veriteq is a leading provider of productized continuous monitoring systems and
data logger solutions for the life science industry comprising of
pharmaceutical, biotechnological and medical device companies. Veriteq
Instruments Inc. reached EUR 5 million net sales in 2009. The company is located
in Vancouver, Canada and employs approximately 40 people. The acquisition will
significantly strengthen Vaisala's position in the Life Science markets,
complementing the current competences and offering.
Net sales of the Controlled Environment business area grew by 9.8 percent
year-on-year to EUR 26.9 (24.5) million. Net sales of Veriteq, acquired in April
2010, were EUR 1.2 million. Organic growth, excluding the net sales of Veriteq,
was 4.9 percent. In comparable currencies, the net sales would have grown
organically by 2.8 percent. Operating profit for the review period was EUR 2.1
(2.7) million, of which the Veriteq share was EUR -0.3 million.
The one-off costs from personnel reductions for Controlled Environment were EUR
0.4 million. The combined one-off impact of these and the shipment delays on the
net sales was EUR 3 million and on the operating profit EUR 2.2 million.
Sales compared to the corresponding period in 2009 grew especially in Europe and
Japan. Biggest growth was seen in the Life Science business.
The value of orders received for Controlled Environment was EUR 30.5 (24.3)
million and the order book stood at EUR 6.8 million at the end of the review
period.
Weather Critical Operations
Net sales of the Weather Critical Operations business area grew by 25.1 percent
year-on-year to EUR 45.9 (36.7) million. Net sales of the QTT company, acquired
in December 2009, were EUR 4.8 million. Organic growth, excluding the net sales
of QTT was 12.1 percent. In comparable currencies, the net sales would have
grown organically by 11.0 percent. All market segments except Airports increased
their net sales in the Weather Critical Operations business.
Operating profit for the review period was EUR -7.3 (-2.4) million. The
operating profit of the QTT-business, which was acquired in December 2009, was
EUR -2.5 million. This includes EUR 0.8 million one-off reorganization costs.
These arrangements aim at EUR 3-4 million synergy savings starting in 2011.
The one-off costs from personnel reductions for Weather Critical Operations were
EUR 1.1 million. The combined one-off impact of these and the shipment delays on
the net sales was EUR 6 million and on the operating profit EUR 3.8 million.
The value of orders received for Weather Critical Operations was EUR 57.1 (50.2)
million and the order book stood at EUR 66.8 million at the end of the review
period.
Other functions
Research and development
Expenditure in research and development totaled EUR 16.8 (12.7) million,
representing 16.1 percent of the Group's net sales.
The share of research and development expenses of the Group's net sales will
remain high in 2010. This is due to some additional efficiency measures aiming
at the alignment of technology platforms and improved product modularity,
usability and mass customization capability.
Vaisala launched nine new products in the first quarter. The most significant of
these were Vaisala Ceilometer CL51; Vaisala HUMICAP Humidity and Temperature
Probes HMP60 and HMP110 for humidity and temperature measurement; and Vaisala
MetMan Webview 2.0, a web based meteorological data visualization software.
Four new products were launched in the second quarter: Vaisala WINDCAP
Ultrasonic Wind Sensor WMT700 Series for demanding meteorological and aviation
applications, Vaisala Road Weather Advisor and the Vaisala Road Weather
Observer, web-based road weather data visualization applications enabling road
weather network monitoring, Vaisala MARWIN sounding system MW32 for defense use
and Vaisala Boundary Layer View (BL-VIEW) application software for Vaisala
ceilometers.
Services
Vaisala's service business is reported as part of the business areas. Services
sales in the review period totaled EUR 14.4 (14.0) million.
Personnel
The average number of people employed in the Vaisala Group in the review period
was 1 425 (1 268). Some 42 (38) percent of the personnel was based outside
Finland.
The consultation processes initiated in May 2010 ended in June 2010. In total,
the company reduced its personnel by 79 people, of which 49 in Finland.
Vaisala has two incentive plans; one based on the development of sales and
profitability and covering all employees, and the other, three-year plan, based
on the development of profitability and covering key personnel.
Changes in Vaisala Corporation's management
Ari Meskanen, the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Vaisala was appointed Senior
Vice President, Group Marketing and Sales starting January 1, 2010.
Petteri Naulapää was appointed Chief Information Officer (CIO) and a member of
the group's strategic management group starting February 16, 2010. Jussi
Kallunki, the former CIO was appointed Vaisala's Chief Risk Officer.
Kai Konola was appointed Executive Vice President of the Weather Critical
Operations Business Area and a member of the group's management group starting
July 1, 2010.
Near-term risks and uncertainties
The most significant near term risks and uncertainties are estimated to relate
to changes in the global economy, shifts of currency exchange rates,
interruptions in manufacturing, project delivery capabilities, customers'
financing capability, changes in purchasing or investment behavior, and delays
or cancellations of orders and deliveries.
Market development and the realization of projects in the industrial segments
affect the net sales and operating profit. The company has additionally expanded
its project activities into emerging markets where the profitability of the
projects is lower than normally, due to the market-making nature of the
business. The share of project business out of the total business volume is also
growing. Should the assumptions regarding the profitability and new business
opportunities in the project business prove wrong, this may constitute risks for
Vaisala's net sales and profit.
Changes in subcontractor relations, their operations or operating environment
may have a negative impact on Vaisala's business. Vaisala monitors these risks
and prepares for them in accordance with the company's risk management policy.
Vaisala is currently implementing significant development projects and
organizational changes, which are building the foundation for a successful
execution of Vaisala's new strategy. A new Group-wide ERP system is in the
implementation phase. These efforts together with the ongoing efficiency program
constitute a short-term risk regarding Vaisala's net sales and profit.
Vaisala has made acquisitions and their impact on net sales and operating profit
depends essentially on the success of integration activities. In case the
assumptions about achievable synergies prove incorrect or the integration fails,
these constitute a short-term risk regarding Vaisala's net sales and result.
