Eniro has agreed to acquire Idium, one of the leading media companies in Norway.
Idium conducts a broad range of business in digital advertising and offers
search engine optimization, video and website production, and keyword
advertising on Google and Microsoft Bing. The acquisition will give Eniro a
broader and more attractive range of services for small to medium sized
companies and media agencies in Norway while strengthening Eniro’s cooperation
with Google. It will also boost Eniro’s customer base by slightly more than
3,000 customers.

Full year sales for Idium in 2013 amounted to approximately SEK 75 M, and EBITDA
was approximately SEK -1 M. In 2014, revenue from Idium, which will be
consolidated in Eniro, is expected to total approximately SEK 35 M, with EBITDA
of approximately SEK 2 M. Eniro Norge AS will pay total consideration of
approximately SEK 35 M, including cash payment of approximately SEK 22 M, which
will be made upon transfer of possession. The remaining consideration of
approximately SEK 14 M will be paid over a three-year period. In addition to the
agreed-upon purchase price, scope has been created for contingent consideration
based on the company’s future sales and earnings performance. Transfer will take
place beginning of August 2014.

“The acquisition of Idium will significantly improve our position in the
Norwegian media market,” comments Johan Lindgren, President and CEO of Eniro.
