20 Dec 2024 16:12 CET

Oslo, 20 December 2024: B2 Impact ASA has entered into an agreement to acquire
Zolva's portfolios in Finland, Norway and Sweden. As part of the transaction,
B2 Impact ASA will also acquire Zolva's servicing platform in Norway, Zolva
AS. Zolva AS is a licensed debt collection company, collecting on the acquired
Norwegian portfolios and certain third party debt collection portfolios. The
portfolios in Finland and Sweden will be serviced by B2 Impact's entities in
these countries.

The transaction adds around EUR 100 million in Estimated Remaining Collections
(ERC) across the three countries. The portfolios mainly constitute credits
originated by financial institutions, well aligned with B2 Impact's investment
strategy for the Nordic region. The transaction reinforces B2 Impact's
presence in the Nordic market.

By leveraging its solid financial position, B2 Impact takes an active role in
the ongoing consolidation in the industry through the acquisition of
portfolios in core markets where the company has scale advantage.

Closing of the transaction is subject to approval by the Norwegian Financial
Supervisory Authority and the Norwegian Competition Authority. These are
expected in the first quarter of 2025.
