Oslo, 11 June 2025: Sentia ASA (the "Company", ticker "SNTIA", and together
with its consolidated subsidiaries, "Sentia" or the "Group") announces today
the successful completion of the bookbuilding in its initial public offering
of shares (the "Offering" or the "IPO"). Reference is also made to previous
announcements by the Company regarding the IPO.

The Company is pleased to welcome more than 6,000 new shareholders as the
Company's shares are expected to commence trading on Euronext Oslo Børs on 13
June 2025 (the "Listing"), following the completion of the IPO. The IPO
attracted significant interest from high quality investors, as well as from
the general public in Norway and Sweden and employees of Sentia, and was close
to 15 times oversubscribed, excluding shares pre-allocated to cornerstone
investors. The offer price of NOK 50.00 per Offer Share (as defined below)
implies a market capitalisation of the Company of approximately NOK 5 billion.

Jan Jahren, the Company's CEO said: "This IPO is a vote of confidence in
Sentia's long-term vision, our deliveries and -- most importantly -- our
people. We are grateful for the trust shown by our new shareholders and look
forward to building the future of our industry together."

The Offering in brief:

A total number of 31,918,755 Offer Shares (as defined below) (including the
Additional Shares (as defined below)) were allocated in connection with the
Offering for a total transaction size of approximately NOK 1.6 billion. The
Offering represents approximately 31.8% of the outstanding shares in the
Company, assuming that the Greenshoe Option (as defined below) is exercised in
full.

27,755,440 existing ordinary shares (the "Sale Shares") have been sold in the
Offering by Ratos Infra AB (the "Selling Shareholder"). In addition, the
Managers (as defined below) have over-allotted 4,163,315 shares (the
"Additional Shares", and together with the Sale Shares, the "Offer Shares"),
representing approximately 15% of the number of shares initially allocated in
the Offering before over-allotments.

As further described in the prospectus prepared and published by the Company
on 2 June 2025 (the "Prospectus"), the Selling Shareholder has granted the
Managers a greenshoe option, exercisable by DNB Carnegie, a part of DNB Bank
ASA, as stabilisation manager, on behalf of the Managers, within 30 days from
the first day of Listing to cover over-allotments and short positions in
connection with the Offering (the "Greenshoe Option"). A separate disclosure
will be issued regarding the over-allotment and stabilisation activities.

Notifications of allocated shares and the corresponding amount to be paid by
investors are expected to be communicated to investors on 12 June 2025.
Investors in the retail offering and the employee offering having access to
investor services through their Euronext Securities Oslo account manager will
be able to check the number of shares allocated to them from approximately
10:00 CEST on 12 June 2025. The Managers may also be contacted for information
regarding allocation, payment and delivery of the Offer Shares.

The existing shares held by the Selling Shareholder not sold in the Offering
will be subject to lock-up of 180 days. Further, the shares held by the
Company's CEO and Deputy CEO will be subject to a lock-up of 720 days,
following which 1/3 of the shares will be released from lock-up per year, with
the first release being after the first 720 days. Other members of management
will have their shares subject to lock-up of 720 days, where 50% of the shares
will be released from lock-up after 360 days. The Board of Directors and
employee shareholders will have their shares subject to 360 days lock-up and
non-employee shareholders will have their shares subject to 180 days lock-up
following the Listing. The Company has agreed to a 180 days lock-up.

Share capital increase

The board of directors has today, 11 June 2025, resolved to increase the
Company's share capital by NOK 55,297.416 as part of the settlement of the
roll-up of minority shareholders and the conversion of synthetic shares, as
described in the Prospectus. As a result, the Company's share capital has
increased from NOK 1,149,830.700 to NOK 1,205,128.116 through the issuance of
4,608,118 new shares, each with a nominal value of NOK 0.012. The share
capital increase was executed pursuant to an authorisation granted by the
Company's general meeting on 17 March 2025, and is expected to be registered
in the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises on 12 June 2025. At Listing,
the Company will have 100,427,343 outstanding shares.

The Company will publish a separate announcement once the share capital
increase has been registered with the Norwegian Register of Business
Enterprises.

BUSINESS SUBJECT TO MANDATORY FILING UNDER THE SWEDISH SCREENING OF FOREIGN
DIRECT INVESTMENTS ACT

The Company assesses that it carries out protection-worthy activities under
the Swedish Screening of Foreign Direct Investments Act (Sw. lagen (2023:560)
om granskning av utländska direktinvesteringar) (the "Swedish FDI Act"). In
accordance with the Swedish FDI Act, the Company must inform presumptive
investors that the Company's activities may fall under the regulation and that
the investment may be subject to mandatory filing. If an investment is subject
to mandatory filing, it must prior to its completion, be filed with the
Inspectorate of Strategic Products (the "ISP"). An investment may be subject
to mandatory filing, inter alia, if i) the investor, any member of its
ownership structure, or any other person on whose behalf the investor is
acting, would, following the investment, directly or indirectly, hold voting
rights equal to or exceeding any of the thresholds of 10, 20, 30, 50, 65 or 90
percent (%) of the voting rights in the Company, or ii) the investor, a member
of the investor's ownership structure or a person on whose behalf the investor
is acting would, in some other way, as a result of the investment have a
direct or indirect influence of the management of the Company. The investor
may be imposed an administrative sanction if an investment that is subject to
mandatory filing is carried out before the ISP has either i) decided to take
no action, or ii) authorized the investment. For more information on which
investments that may be subject to mandatory filing, please refer to the
Swedish FDI Act and ISP's website,

Similar mandatory filing requirements may also apply in other jurisdictions.
Each investor should consult an independent legal advisor as to assess the
possible application of the Swedish FDI Act or similar screening regimes in
other jurisdictions in relation to the Offering for the individual investor.
