OSLO, Norway (March 12th, 2018) – CSAM announced today that it has signed an agreement
to acquire Arcid – a Norwegian eHealth company that focuses on information flow in the
teleradiology domain.

Arcid provides eHealth solutions that improve workflows and simplify the interaction between
healthcare professionals. Among the company’s best-known products are TRIS, a Radiology
Information System; Arcidis, a teleradiology information solution; and HelseMail, a Software as
Service (SaaS) communication platform that enables the encrypted transfer of large, high
volume, and sensitive patient information.

– The combination of CSAM and Arcid will create an innovative and comprehensive offering in
the medical imaging and connected health markets, enabling us to better serve clinicians and
patients, said Sverre Flatby, CSAM CEO. – Arcid has an impressive reputation for delivering
efficiency, quality, and exceptional patient care with their niche software solutions, and we are
pleased they have entrusted CSAM to carry on that tradition of excellence.

– I am confident that CSAM is the right home for Arcid’s team in this exciting growth period to
come, said Kåre-Bjørn Kongsnes, business developer and majority shareholder of Arcid. –
Integrating our highly competent team of people with CSAM, the leading Nordic niche player
within eHealth, strengthens this viable and powerful position.
The acquisition of Arcid is consistent with CSAM’s strategy to pursue growth through a
combination of strategic M&As and organic sales. The transaction is estimated to close before
the end of the month.

– Arcid’s products are an important complement to CSAM’s software solutions in the medical
imaging and connected healthcare domains, strengthening our leadership in these key market
segments, said Flatby. – The mixture of our customers, code and competencies will allow us to
provide even greater value to customers across both public and private healthcare
organisations.

CSAM has been a leading provider of medical imaging and connected healthcare solutions in
the Nordics for more than a decade. The company works closely with healthcare professionals
and organisations to develop software solutions that deliver the highest value for their
operations.
