BEWI - Closing of the Jackon transaction
With reference to previous stock exchange notices about BEWI's acquisition of
Jackon Holding, including 1 October 2021 and 15 October 2021, as well as
published financial reports since then, BEWI today announces that the company
has now received approval, in case of Finland and Norway with certain
conditions, from all the relevant competition authorities to close the Jackon
transaction. The approval in Finland is conditional upon divestment of two
smaller insulation facilities and the approval in Norway is conditional upon
divestment of two smaller fish box facilities in northern Norway. In total,
revenues for the four facilities represent less than 2 per cent of the combined
company's annual turnover.
BEWI has also received approvals from the Swedish and German competition
authorities.
The divestment of the four facilities will be conducted at market terms and the
total consideration is expected to be approximately EUR 15 million.
Final closing of the Jackon transaction is expected to take place in August
2022, following completion of the divestments.
BEWI maintains its previously communicated expectations of synergies of at least
EUR 12 to 15 million.
