Sdiptech acquires Tello Service Partner AB

As of today, Sdiptech has acquired all shares in Tello Service Partner AB.

Tello Service Partner specializes in roof repainting and installation of personal protection on roofs. Tello will be part of Sdiptech's business area Tailored Installation. The company has a broken financial year, and during the financial year 2016/2017 net sales amounted to approximately SEK 32 million.

Jakob Holm, CEO, Sdiptech, comments:

"With Tello, we are strengthening our renovation business with a niche service company with strong presence in the Stockholm region. The company's focus on the renovation market creates non-cyclical revenue over time as exposure to new construction is limited. By introducing Tello to our existing customer base, the company's operations can grow further."

Daniel Bergman, CEO, Tello Service Partner, comments:

"We are very excited to become part of Sdiptech and see great opportunities for Tello Service Partner - opportunities that can be realized with the Group's resources and knowledge. With Sdiptech's help, we can broaden our customer base in the property segment and gain support for the continued development of the business."

The total purchase consideration, including future performance-based considerations over a period of five years, will amount to SEK 69.3 million at most. In connection with today's acquisition, SEK 30.9 million was paid in cash, while the remaining amount will be recognized as a liability in the Group's consolidated accounts.
