Humana expands into Finland through acquisition

Humana AB, a leading Nordic care company, acquires the leading Finnish
psychosocial care provider Arjessa. As a result of the acquisition Humana
establishes a strong platform for continued growth in Finland.
Humana AB has entered into an agreement to acquire all shares in Arjessa Oy
(“Arjessa” or the “Company”) from funds managed by Sentica Partners Oy and a
number of private individuals. The transaction is subject to approval by the
Finnish competition authorities and is expected to be finalized by the end of
the second quarter of 2016.

The enterprise value of the acquisition target is EUR 32 million. The
transaction price will be financed through cash and existing credit facilities
at closing. In 2015, Arjessa had net sales of EUR 32.1 million and EBITA of EUR
3.1 million. The Company has more than 800 full-year and part time employees.
The change in ownership will not affect the operations or personnel of Arjessa.

- Expanding into Finland is in line with Humana's growth strategy and the
acquisition of Arjessa is an important step in Humana's ambition to become the
leading care company in the Nordic region, says Rasmus Nerman, CEO of Humana.
Arjessa and its management team offers an optimal platform for continued
expansion in Finland and the acquisition further strengthens Humana's position
as the leading Nordic player within individual and family care, Rasmus Nerman
concludes.

Arjessa is a leading Finnish high-quality provider of full responsibility
psychiatric and psychosocial treatments for children, adolescents and their
families, with a significant market presence and national reach. With its
position as Finland’s largest private provider within child & family open care
and the second largest provider within child welfare institutional care, the
Company complements Humana’s business area Individual & Family, especially given
Humana’s presence and expertise within psychosocial care. Arjessa and Humana
will together form the by far leading Nordic provider within individual and
family care.

- Arjessa and Humana fit well together both from an operational and cultural
perspective, comments Pasi Kohtala, CEO of Arjessa. We share the same core
values and have a consensus view on how good care is carried out. The Arjessa
management team look forward to becoming a part of Humana and taking advantage
of their deep knowledge to further develop and expand our activities and
customer offering within social care.

The acquisition is expected to have a positive contribution on revenues and
earnings per share during 2016.
