Norbert Rotter, CEO itelligence AG: "With the beginning of the new year 2020,
itelligence starts into a new era in Brazil and South America together with FH
S.A. This acquisition opens up one of the fastest growing SAP markets to
itelligence AG. FH owns the market leading tax solution "Guepardo" for SAP in
Brazil. The deep know-how of FH to develop SAP based software is a strategic
asset for itelligence and NTT DATA Business Solutions globally.

Founded in 1999, FH is one of Brazil's leading SAP consulting and development
companies. Its SAP-based tax solution is in use by companies that together
account for over 8% of Brazil's GDP. FH is thus Latin America's leading vendor
in the area of SAP's Customer Experience portfolio and has completed numerous
successful SAP rollout projects in over 30 countries.

Ricardo Fachin, CEO of FH, comments: "With revenue of R$ 168 million (37 million
Euro) in 2019, an increase of 25% over the 2018 result, FH enters 2020 with an
optimistic outlook on the market and plans to achieve R$ 200 million (44 million
Euro). New projects are in progress, including the expansion to other Latin
American countries and new offers based on artificial intelligence (machine
learning, deep learning and Big Data)."

With this acquisition, itelligence is expanding its presence in one of the
currently strongest-growing economic regions in the world. According to IDC and
Gartner, Brazil is the eighth largest IT market globally. It grew by 9.8% in
2018 and market analysts expect an above global average growth rate until 2024.
