Eniro continues to concentrate the company's operations and is thus divesting the Norwegian B2B service Inform. The divestment will generate a capital gain in excess of SEK 30 M in the fourth quarter.

Today, Eniro Norge AS has agreed to sell the business-to-business service Inform to Bisnode Norge AS. The divestment includes brands and other intellectual property rights, customer agreements and personnel. Inform has full-year sales totaling approximately SEK 19 M and a positive EBITDA. Bisnode will pay a purchase consideration totaling SEK 37 M. The payment will be made in cash on the transfer date, expected November 30, 2012.

"The divestment of Inform means that we are continuing to streamline and focus our operations on digital local search," says Johan Lindgren, President and CEO of Eniro AB. "A concentration of the company's brand portfolio facilitates more efficient utilization of Eniro's development resources in the company's growth areas, while management's time can be focused on operating and further developing the core business," concludes Johan Lindgren.
