TOMRA acquires 14% ownership stake in product traceability company Kezzler

TOMRA Systems ASA has acquired a 14% ownership stake in Kezzler AS, a product

traceability company headquartered in Norway, for NOK 110 million. The

investment is done through a combination of participation in the company's

rights issue and buying secondary shares. Following the investment, TOMRA became

the largest shareholder in Kezzler AS.

Kezzler AS was founded in 2003 in Norway and is a software-as-a-service (SaaS)

provider that has developed a platform to enable traceability of products

through their life cycles. The solution platform is scalable, flexible, and

purpose-built to meet traceability challenges of large, complex organizations

across various industries.

TOMRA and Kezzler have already collaborated in several strategic verticals and

see a potential for mutual value creation working in closer collaboration going

forward. TOMRA regards traceability and transparency to be important elements of

circular business models. The investment in Kezzler enables TOMRA to explore and

further develop opportunities in a strategic digital space.

"Through this investment, TOMRA will take a position with an important

technology that can accelerate the required transition to circularity and

resource optimization.", says Tove Andersen, TOMRA President and CEO.

"Already working with some of the largest brand names in the world, we very much

welcome TOMRA as our largest shareholder. I am confident that we together can

continue to scale our mutual solutions with the strong industrial support that

TOMRA can facilitate", says Erik Langaker, chair of the board of Kezzler AS.
