<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;">OSLO, Norway, January 11, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Opera Limited (NASDAQ: OPRA), one of the world&#8217;s major browser developers and a leading internet consumer brand, announced today it expects fourth quarter 2020 results to exceed the top-end of both its revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance ranges. Opera had initially guided to fourth quarter revenue of $45 to $47 million and adjusted EBITDA of $10 to $12 million.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p>

We continued to exceed our expectations both on users and monetization, leading to a significant acceleration in our year-over-year search &amp; advertising growth rates&#8221;, said Song Lin, Co-CEO. &#8220;Further, execution in our core business is expected to drive accelerating year-over-year growth rates in 2021 before factoring in any potential from our new initiatives.&#8221;</p>
