Review of the President and CEO at the AGM

Pöyry PLC's Annual General Meeting convenes today 11 March 2010 at
4.00 p.m. in Helsinki, Finland. In his review Heikki Malinen, President and CEO,
will publish no essential new information. Mr. Malinen comments the near-term
market outlook as follows:

"Clients, especially in forest industry, are increasingly active in planning new
projects but as maintenance and modernisation investments are still on a low
level, the Industry business group's capacity utilisation levels will continue
low in the short term. Also in the Energy business group profitability
improvement is expected to occur towards the end of the year."

Heikki Malinen's review will start approximately at 4.10 p.m. Finnish time. It
will be webcast live and can be followed on the company's web site at
www.poyry.com. The presentation material will also be available on the company's
web site.
