Mascot Bidco Oy to Commence Redemption Proceedings in Respect of the Amer Sports
Corporation Minority Shares

Mascot Bidco Oy (the "Offeror") commenced on December 20, 2018 a voluntary
public cash tender offer recommended by the Board of Directors of Amer Sports
Corporation ("Amer Sports") to purchase all the issued and outstanding shares in
Amer Sports that are not held by Amer Sports or any of its subsidiaries (the
"Tender Offer"). The acceptance period of the Tender Offer commenced on December
20, 2018 and expired on March 7, 2019. The Offeror announced on March 12, 2019
that it will complete the Tender Offer in accordance with its terms and
conditions. In addition, the Offeror commenced a subsequent offer period on
March 13, 2019, which expired on March 27, 2019.

The Offeror has notified Amer Sports that it holds more than nine-tenths (9/10)
of all the shares and votes in Amer Sports, and that it therefore has the right
and obligation under Chapter 18, Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act to
redeem the shares held by other Amer Sports shareholders at fair value.
According to the Offeror's notice, the Offeror holds a total of 109,430,925
shares in Amer Sports, corresponding to more than 94 percent of all the shares
and votes in Amer Sports (excluding shares held by Amer Sports or any of its
subsidiaries).

The Offeror has decided to exercise its redemption right pursuant to the Finnish
Companies Act and to redeem all shares held by any other remaining shareholders
in Amer Sports (the "Shares" and each of them separately, a "Share"). To
implement the redemption of the Shares, the Offeror will initiate arbitration
proceedings as provided in the Finnish Companies Act. In such arbitration
proceedings, the Offeror will demand that the redemption price for the shares is
EUR 40.00 per Share, which is the same price as the consideration paid by the
Offeror in the Tender Offer.

According to the Offeror's notice, any Finnish transfer tax deriving from the
redemption of the Shares as well as the payments and charges arising from the
book-entry registrations carried out as a consequence of the redemption will be
borne by the Offeror.
