Telenor has entered into an agreement to sell its subsidiary Telenor Satellite
to Space Norway, a leader in the Norwegian space industry. The sales price is
NOK 2.36 billion on an enterprise value basis. As Space Norway is wholly owned
by the Norwegian Government, the transaction is subject to approval by the
Parliament. 

Through the deal, Telenor Satellite Services will get an industrial owner with
the strategic focus and priorities to develop the business further, including
capex commitments for potential new satellites. The proposed transaction is in
line with the strategy of asset-by-asset monetization of non-core assets within
Telenor's Amp portfolio that was outlined on the Capital Markets Day in
September 2022. Closing of the transaction is expected in January 2024. 

Telenor Satellite is a European satellite provider that covers the European,
Middle East and North African (EMEA) market with broadcasting and data
communication services. The company presently serves millions of homes with TV
services, and nearly 2,000 vessels and 600 land terminals with data
connectivity. During the first three quarters of 2023, Telenor Satellite
generated revenues of NOK 707m, EBITDA of NOK 504m and EBIT of NOK 284m. 

Space Norway manages and develops strategic space capabilities. The company is
100% owned by the Norwegian Ministry of Trade, Industry and Fisheries and
represents a key part of the Norwegian Government's activities and assets in the
space sector. Space Norway's activities range from small satellites in Low Earth
Orbits to large satellites and ground infrastructure.
