Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Magnora ASA
(the "Company") on 29 April 2026 regarding the potential initial public offering
(the "IPO") of its data center business. The Company has today published an
investor presentation in connection with the contemplated IPO. The presentation
provides an overview of the data center business, strategic rationale for a
separate listing and the contemplated next steps.
Highlights from the contemplated transaction:
* Magnora Data Center ASA ("Magnora DC") is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Magnora ASA, and a separate listing on Euronext Growth Oslo is being
contemplated.
* In connection with the contemplated IPO, Magnora DC is considering
undertaking a private placement raising gross proceeds of minimum NOK 500
million.
* As previously communicated, Magnora ASA intends to continue investing and at
this stage remain a major shareholder in the data center business after the
IPO.
* Following the completion of the recently announced private placement, Magnora
ASA has initiated the final IPO preparation process and currently expects the
contemplated listing to be completed in Q2 2026, subject to market
conditions.
* Separate listing of Magnora Data Center ASA to provide investors with a
pure-play exposure to the strongly growing data center market, building
further on Magnora ASA's data center portfolio and organization.
* Public market access expected to enable new business opportunities and M&A,
also giving the Company the opportunity to use shares as currency.
* Use of proceeds: Development of currently secured projects, organization
development and acquisitions of further green- and brownfield projects.
* Arctic Securities AS has been engaged as Sole Global Coordinator and
Bookrunner (the "Manager"). Advokatfirmaet BAHR AS acts as legal advisor to
Magnora DC, and Advokatfirmaet Thommessen AS acts as legal advisor to the
Manager.

by the Company this morning.
