Oslo, October 21, 2021: Reference is made to the stock exchange announcements on
May 25, and July 22, where Carasent ASA (the "Company") announced that the
Company had carried out two successful private placements. 

The first private placement (the "Private Placement 1") was finalized following
the acquisition of Metodika AB on May 25, 2021 where a Seller's Note of NOK
23,229,999.50 was issued to the sellers. The Seller's Note was then subsequently
used as payment for 588,235 new shares (the "New Shares 1") at NOK 39.49 per
share. 

The second private placement (the "Private Placement 2") was finalized following
a direct placement completed on July 22, 2021 towards Cardigan Holdco S.à r.l.,
a company indirectly owned by Vitruvian Investment Partnership IV, a fund
managed by Vitruvian Partners LLP (together "Vitruvian"). The Private Placement
2 covered issuance of 11,987,332 new shares (the "New Shares 2") at NOK 35.05
with a total cash consideration of NOK 420 million.

The shares issued under to Private Placement 1 and 2 combined amounts to
12,575,567 shares (the "Offer Shares"). The Offers Shares were listed on a
separate ISIN and was unlisted pending approval of a listing prospectus (the
"Prospectus") by the Norwegian Financial Supervisory Authority (the "NFSA"). The
NFSA has reviewed and approved the Company's prospectus on October 21, 2021
regarding the listing of the Offer Shares. Following the NFSA approval of the
Prospectus, the Unlisted Shares will be transferred to the Company's ordinary
ISIN and will be listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange. The Prospectus is attached
and will also be made available at www.carasent.com (http://www.carasent.com).

The Prospectus will also be available at the offices of the Company. For further
