H+H acquires controlling interest in aircrete factory in Dresden, Germany
H+H International A/S’ subsidiary H+H Deutschland GmbH has signed an agreement with existing shareholders in Porenbetonwerk Laussnitz GmbH & Co. KG (PBWL) situated 25 km North of Dresden, Germany, to acquire 51% of the shares in the company. The existing shareholders, who have successfully developed the company, will remain co-shareholders.
“We are pleased to announce an important step forward in our restructuring of the German white stone market. It is a logic step for both existing shareholders and H+H” says CEO Michael T. Andersen. “A continued expansion of our German footprint and increased business volume will strengthen our brand and enable our continued participation in modernizing the industry and improving building performance”.
PBWL has a revenue of around EUR 10 million and EBITDA around EUR 2 million. Closing of the acquisition is expected to take place during January 2020 and the consideration will be paid in cash.
The day-to-day operation of the business will continue unchanged, but PBWL customers will benefit from a wider network of factories, a wider product range and H+H’s reputation of being the professional, quality and reliable choice.
The acquisition is in line with the announced strategy to expand our activities within wall building materials market in Germany.
