HELSINKI – Vaisala Corporation (Nasdaq Helsinki: VAIAS), a global leader in advanced measurement instruments and intelligence for climate action, today announced a significant share repurchase on the Helsinki Stock Exchange. This strategic move underscores the company’s confidence in its financial strength and its commitment to optimizing shareholder value.
On the trade date of July 28, 2025, Vaisala Corporation executed a buy transaction for 1,500 of its own shares. The shares, identified by the ticker symbol VAIAS, were repurchased at an average price of EUR 47.0000 per share, resulting in a total cost of EUR 70,500.00 for this specific transaction. This latest acquisition brings Vaisala Corporation’s total holding of its own shares to 121,318, including the shares repurchased on this date.
The share buybacks are meticulously executed in strict compliance with the regulatory framework set forth by Regulation No. 596/2014 of the European Parliament and Council (MAR) Article 5, as well as the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052. This adherence to stringent European Union regulations ensures transparency, fairness, and market integrity throughout the repurchase process, reflecting Vaisala’s unwavering commitment to corporate governance and best practices.
This ongoing share repurchase program is an integral part of Vaisala’s broader capital management strategy. By repurchasing shares, the company aims to effectively manage its capital structure, potentially reducing the number of outstanding shares and thereby enhancing earnings per share (EPS). Such actions typically signal a company’s robust financial health and its belief that its shares are currently undervalued by the market, presenting an opportune moment to invest in its own equity.
The execution of this buyback on behalf of Vaisala Corporation was facilitated by Nordea Bank Oyj, a leading financial institution, with Sami Huttunen and Ilari Isomäki overseeing the transaction. Their involvement ensures professional and compliant execution of the share repurchase, aligning with Vaisala’s commitment to maintaining strong relationships with its financial partners.
