Enea Acquires Network Functions Management Technology


STOCKHOLM, Sweden, January 8, 2016 – Enea® (NASDAQ OMX Nordic:ENEA) acquires
network management system vendor Centered Logic LLC.
Growing traffic volumes and increased network complexity, including Network
Function Virtualization (NFV), drive the need for sophisticated and effective
network management systems with high demands on functionality, scalability,
performance, and reliability.

Centered Logic LLC is an established contender in the network management and
service orchestration market, providing solutions for effective management of
both traditional and virtualized networks. With its software platform
ElementCenter, Centered Logic enables operators, network equipment
manufacturers, NFV developers and systems integrators to quickly develop network
management solutions for physical as well as software defined networks (SDN).
Based in Nashua, New Hampshire, U.S., the company has already today customers
both within and outside the US.

"I am happy to announce the acquisition of a small but fast growing and very
interesting extension of our offering in the area of management and
orchestration of physical and virtualized networks. Together with our existing
Enea Element product line, ElementCenter will also add to the capabilities of
our Enea COSNOS platform for developing and managing next generation network
functions”, said Anders Lidbeck, President and CEO, Enea.

Enea will acquire the business assets of Centered Logic LCC, including its three
employees and founding team and the IP rights to the ElementCenter product. "We
are very excited to become a part of Enea," said John Wagner, CEO of Centered
Logic, LLC. "We believe the model-based architecture of the ElementCenter
platform is a powerful and complementary addition to Enea’s suite of products
for the networking industry, providing its customers with a unique end-to-end
solution to challenges in management, virtualization, and orchestration."

The acquisition of Centered Logic is expected to add a small positive
contribution to the earnings of the Enea group during 2016. The purchase
consideration consists of an upfront payment of 1.3 MUSD and an earn-out
component over three years corresponding to the development of the acquired
business, capped at 2.2 MUSD. The transaction is estimated to be completed in
January 2016.
