Press release from the Belimo Group 

The Belimo Group, global leader in actuator solutions for regulating and
controlling heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, can look back on
a solid performance in the financial year 2009.Group sales fell just short of
the previous year's due to a contraction in some markets and weaker foreign
currencies. The most seriously affected were individual European countries and
application areas. The growth achieved in the Americas is a positive sign in the
current market environment, and Asia/Pacific also continued its upward trend. 

In Swiss francs, net sales fell by 4.4 percent to around CHF 386 million, a
decline of 1.5 percent in local currencies.While Europe was down by 5.2 percent,
the Americas gained 1.8 percent and Asia/Pacific 12.7 percent. Air and water
applications posted changes of -6.0 and +7.2 percent respectively in local
currencies. 

The Belimo Group expects once again good operating results (EBIT) and also an
increase in net income over last year amongst others due to more stable foreign
currency trends.Detailed information on 2009 as a whole will be announced at the
media information session on March 8, 2010. 

The Belimo Group is a leading global manufacturer of innovative actuator
solutions for heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems. The Group
achieved sales of CHF 386 million in 2009 and employs more than 1100 people. For
