Vestum AB (publ) ("Vestum") has agreed to acquire 100 percent of the shares in Elcentralen Nacka AB ("Elcentralen").

Comments from Vestum's CEO Conny Ryk:

Today we welcome Elcentralen to Vestum! The company complements our existing offering within electrical installations in Stockholm and we see that there are positive collaboration effects with other portfolio companies in the region. Elcentralen has been on the market for over 30 years and will contribute with expertise and its vast network within electrical installations, which is a growth segment for Vestum. The previous owners will continue to run the business in the same successful way as before, says Conny Ryk, CEO of Vestum.

About the acquisition
The purchase price will partly be financed through payment in reverse, which will then be set off against 69,098 shares in Vestum through offset issues. This will result in a dilution of approximately 0.1%. The subscription price has been determined via a ten-day volume-weighted average price ("VWAP") in Vestum's share during the period 18 October 2021 up to and including 29 October 2021.
