Schibsted ASA is an international media group. The company has its headquarters in Oslo, Norway, and is listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange. The CEO is Christian Printzell Halvorsen.
In 2019, Schibsted spun off the majority of their online marketplaces business area into a new company called Adevinta. Brands such as eBay Kleinanzeigen, Leboncoin.fr and Shpock were included, and stakes in similar websites across Europe were also transferred. As of December 2022 Schibsted continues to hold a 22.8% stake in the company.
In 2024, Schibsted sold its media operations to The Tinius Trust through Blommenholm Industrier transforming Schibsted into two more focused companies: a media company, known as Schibsted Media, fully owned by the Trust and a publicly listed marketplaces company, known as Schibsted Marketplaces (becoming the original company's legal successor) until a new name has been announced. The CEO for Schibsted Media is Siv Juvik Tveitnes.
The following year, Schibsted Marketplaces announced its full rebrand of its brand operations to Vend which would take effect during Q2 2025.
On 25 February 2025, Schibsted Media announced the acquisition proposal of the TV4 Media for 6.55 billion SEK. The acquisition expected to end in the third quarter of 2025, following regulatory approval.
