Eniro continues to streamline and posts capital gain


Eniro continues to concentrate the company’s operations.  The Norwegian web
search engine Kvasir.no is divested to Scandinavia Online AS, a company Eniro
owns jointly with Aller Media AS. The divestment will generate a capital gain.
Eniro Norge AS today signed an agreement to divest web search engine Kvasir.no
to Scandinavia Online AS (SOL), a company owned jointly with Aller Media AS. The
divestment comprises brands, domain names, search engines, IT platforms,
supplier agreements, distribution agreements and staff. Following the
divestment, Eniro Norge AS will continue to own 50.1% of SOL. The remaining
49.9% is owned by Aller Media AS.
The divestment of Kvasir.no to SOL will secure the continued streamlining of
Eniro, while enabling efficiency enhancements and cost synergies. Eniro will
continue to offer performance based media products and distribute ads at
kvasir.no. As compensation to SOL, Eniro will pay a cost (revenue share) for the
distribution. As a result of this structure, neither order intake nor the
revenues, which amounted to approximately SEK 25 M in 2012, will be affected in
2013.

SOL will pay an initial purchase consideration of SEK 19 M. The payment will be
made in cash on the transfer date, which is scheduled for January 2012. In
addition to payment of the purchase consideration on the transfer date, a
supplementary consideration may also be paid based on the company’s future
revenue trend. The divestment will generate a capital gain.

“The divestment of Kvasir enables us to continue to streamline and focus our
operations toward digital local search,” says Johan Lindgren, President and CEO
of Eniro AB. “A concentration of the company’s brand portfolio will enable us to
utilize Eniro’s development resources more effectively in the company’s growth
areas, while management can focus on operating and further developing the core
business,” says Johan Lindgren.
