Xplora enters another collaboration with a Nordic telco

Oslo, 06 January 2023 - Xplora Technologies ('Xplora' or 'the Company'),
Europe's leading smartwatch company for kids, today announced a collaboration
agreement with Elisa Oyj in Finland. The agreement marks another step to drive
growth in the Finnish market and showcases the strong value proposition provided
by Xplora's industry leading product offering. 

Xplora extends its distribution capacity in the Nordics through the
collaboration agreement with Elisa Oyj ('Elisa') in Finland. Elisa will market
and sell Xplora's industry leading and recently award-winning XGO3 and X6Play
smartwatches across Finland. 

"Over the course of 2022, Elisa has experienced tremendous growth in the demand
for children's wearable phones. Wearable phones enable children to stay in touch
with their loved ones while not exposing children to all content available on
the internet.  We are pleased to continue efforts in increasing parents'
awareness and to deliver high quality solutions in this segment together with
leading companies like Xplora", Elisa's Laura Puusaari, Director of Smart Living
Business, comments.

Xplora has in recent years successfully built a strong market presence for kids'
smartwatches in Finland as a mobile service provider through own webstores and a
growing number of retail partners. Xplora has reached 7% Nordic penetration with
more than 150,000 subscribers in the target market of children aged 4-10 with
Xplora Connect and is widening its reach and strengthening its brand and market
position through telco distribution agreements. 

"We are proud to team up with Elisa in Finland. Finland is an important and
growing market for Xplora showing great potential. The introduction of our
smartwatches in the Finnish market through Elisa's wide distribution network is
another great win for us, and the partnership showcases the strong value
proposition of Xplora's offering" says Sten Kirkbak, CEO of Xplora Technologies.
