Cyril Acquisition withdraws its offer to the shareholders of Cision

Cyril Acquisition AB (Triton Fund II) announced today that its public offer to
acquire all shares and convertible debentures in Cision AB has ceased to be
valid, since the conditions were not fulfilled during the offer period. The
offer period for Cyril Acquisition's offer ended on Thursday, June 12, 2008.

Cision is undergoing an extensive change process. A central component in this
process is the launch and implementation of an integrated offer based on the
Group's new service platform, CisionPoint. This is part of Cision's strategy to
offer international media monitoring and analysis to global companies and
organizations.

The restructuring of operations in the UK and the Nordic countries is in
progress. In Cision's North American operations, demand for CisionPoint, which
was launched during the fourth quarter of 2007, is favorable, and preparations
for the launch of CisionPoint in the company's other markets from the second
half of 2008 are proceeding according to plan.

Cision's interim report for the second quarter of 2008 will be published on July
24, 2008.
