Tietoevry CorporationINSIDE INFORMATION     25 April 2024   8:30 a.m. EEST

On 22 July 2022, Tietoevry announced a strategic review of its Banking business,
including a process to study its potential separation into an independent
company that would be listed on a stock exchange.On 15 February, 2024 a demerger
plan concerning a partial demerger of Tietoevry Banking was approved by
Tietoevry's Board of Directors, while retaining the optionality to pursue other
alternatives for Tietoevry Banking before completion of the demerger, if in the
best interests of Tietoevry and its shareholders.

Tietoevry's Board of Directors has decided to further develop Tietoevry Banking
as a specialized business within the Group and to discontinue the demerger
process. Key considerations for the decision being:

  · Tietoevry firmly believes in its chosen specialization strategy, running
each business end-to-end and enabling the businesses to be among the best in the
market. Tietoevry Banking has continued to advance well as a specialized
business within the Group, with consistent performance improvement towards
becoming a leading fintech software business.
  · Prevailing capital market conditions are not deemed optimal for a sale or
listing of a fintech software business. Tietoevry anticipates that it will be
able to achieve higher value of Tietoevry Banking by continuing to improve its
performance as a specialized business within the Group. The business is well
prepared for strategic value creation opportunities that may arise in the
future.

"The strategic review process for Tietoevry Banking, launched in 2022, has been
extensive and carefully considered, with the aim to unlock the value potential
of the business. As Tietoevry's Board of Directors, we have evaluated all the
alternatives and concluded that currently it is in the best interest of
shareholders to have the business continue its development as a specialized
business within the Group. The foundation of the business is solid and we
strongly believe in the long-term value creation potential of Tietoevry
Banking", comments Tomas Franzén, Chairperson, Tietoevry Board of Directors.

"We continue to build the competitiveness and scale of our specialized
businesses to drive success in the market and shareholder value. Tietoevry
Banking has embraced this specialization mandate in the past two years and is
performing well. Tietoevry Banking has become more advanced in its operational
independence as part of the strategic review process and we look forward to
developing it further. We strongly believe in Tietoevry Banking continuing on
its path towards becoming a leading international fintech software business,
delivering continuously greater value for shareholders", comments Kimmo Alkio,
CEO, Tietoevry.

The strategic review of Tietoevry Tech Services is progressing as planned and is
independent of Tietoevry Banking strategic review conclusions.
