COMPARISON FIGURES FOR 2009 ACCORDING TO IFRIC 15                               

YIT will have to apply to the financial period starting on January 1, 2010 IFRS  interpretation of IFRIC 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate. The   interpretation provides guidance on when to account for revenue from the         construction of real estate based on the percentage of completion and when based on the delivery. The implementation of this interpretation will mainly change    YIT Group's revenue recognition of housing developer contracting to take place   at the time of delivery, while so far revenue has been recognised based on the   percentage of completion method.                                                

YIT will publish comparison figures calculated following IFRIC 15 for the        financial year 2009 prior to the publishing of Interim Report                    January-March/2010.
