Financial guidance for 2017

Net sales growth is expected to remain strong. Profitability is expected to
remain at a healthy level despite growth investments.

Timo Hildén, President and CEO, comments on the company's performance in 2016:

The year 2016 mainly brought us success, but we also experienced some setbacks.
Among our achievements were strong sales in China, the completion of the Icare
ic100 tonometer within the agreed schedule for sales, as well as the sales
permit we obtained for this device in the United States. The United States
continues to be our largest individual market, and it is important for us to
succeed there. Centralizing the manufacture of probes mainly in Finland has also
proved to be an extremely wise and well-managed move.

The past year has also been challenging. In addition to success, we also
experienced some setbacks: the application process for the sales permit for the
Icare HOME tonometer in the United States did not go as smoothly as we had
hoped, and we had to submit a new sales permit application to the FDA at the end
of the year. The application process, as a whole, was a great deal more
cumbersome than anticipated. However, thanks to the commitment and hard work put
into the project by our employees, we believe that our efforts will be rewarded.

Revenio Research Oy's development projects for skin cancer and asthma-related
products are progressing as planned. Our asthma product was named Ventica® and
received the CE mark, which will give us the opportunity to launch the first
clinical trials of the commercial product.

We continue to expect growth. We have invested in the future by complementing
the rebound tonometry, which is used to measure intraocular pressure, with other
health technologies on which we our expertise is focused. This will ensure that
we are not dependent on one product and technology but will become a true health
technology product developer and marketer. We have prepared for the future by
recruiting skilled professionals for various positions in Finland as well as
abroad, and we expect solid results from them in terms of both sales and R&D. We
have a good reputation and can choose from among the best applicants. We have
kept our in-house team as compact as possible and have used skilled partners
whenever possible for tasks that require special expertise. These cooperation
partners have made a valuable contribution to our achievements.

I would like to thank Olli-Pekka Salovaara, Revenio's long-term President and
CEO, for his nearly ten-year journey as CEO, during which we have crafted
Revenio into a successful health care technology company. We have been pioneers
in many areas, in which we can be proud of as a company.

Olli-Pekka Salovaara: "Again, our personnel reached excellent results.
Warmhearted thanks to them. I also wish to thank our shareholders for their
trust in us. I am convinced that Revenio Group's world-class know-how and
strategy form a solid platform for success in the future too. This creates a
good foundation to continue from. I wish you continued success!"
