Intentia publishes the conditions for the previously announced new share issue

Intentia publishes the conditions for the previously announced new share issue Stockholm, Sweden-Intentia International AB (publ) (XSSE; INT B) In accordance with its earlier announcement, the Board of Directors of Intentia International today decided to issue new shares. This decision was made in order to secure Intentia's recent investments in geographical expansion and product development, and to strengthen the company's market position in the years to come. The new share issue gives Intentia the ability to focus on the profitable growth that is expected to take place at least at the pace of market growth. By strengthening the company's balance sheet, Intentia can leverage on the positive effects of the investments it has made in recent years. Intentia has always had an explicit long-term view of its operations. Intentia has demonstrated this over the past few years, in a market that was weaker than anyone could expect, by continuing as promised to invest in developing the strongest product and technological offering on the market, as well as to establish a global presence. Following up on this strategy has been vital both to Intentia's success and to its future long-term growth and profitability. With a leading product offering on the market, a global organization, and extremely qualified professionals, Intentia has created a solid foundation and has become one of the leading companies in the industry. Intentia has consistently stood its ground when it comes to completing this strategy, even in 1999, which turned out to be a much more difficult year than the market expected. A sluggish 1999 negatively influenced the first half of 2000 and weakened Intentia's income statement in relation to the growth seen during the latter part of the year. The decision to issue new shares will be presented for approval at the extra shareholders' meeting to be held on February 21, 2001. The new issue will be directed towards current shareholders and includes 4,862,200 shares, at a nominal value of SEK 10 each, with the following conditions: · Each current group of five series A or series B shares is entitles a subscription to one new series A or series B share respectively · The subscription price is SEK 82 per share · The record day for participation in the new issue is February 28, 2001 · Trading with subscription rights will take place during the period March 5-20, 2001, inclusive · The subscription period is from March 5 to March 23, 2001, inclusive · A prospectus and issue statement will be distributed to Intentia shareholders beginning on March 2, 2001. · D. Carnegie AB serves as advisor to Intentia.
