Schibsted holds a minority stake of 10.1% in Viaplay Group, a leading Nordic
entertainment platform which is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm.
"Schibsted has a long history of investing in companies close to our core that
benefit from our strength, and of seizing opportunities which arise in more
uncertain times. Our investment in Viaplay is an example of this - Viaplay's
strong position as a streaming provider in the Nordics fits very well with our
media operations, and we are confident that we, as a financially focused
shareholder, can support value creation in the company," CEO Kristin Skogen Lund
says.
Schibsted holds 8.0 million B-shares in Viaplay Group which are currently held
under a total return swap (TRS) with a Nordic bank.
