Oaklins concludes its third transaction in 2021 for MT Højgaard Holding A/S with the sale of the pavilion business to Adapteo Oy

Introduction

MT Højgaard Holding A/S’ subsidiary Ajos A/S has entered into an agreement to divest its pavilion business to the Northern European market leader in the segment, Adapteo Oy. An upfront sales price of approximately DKK 325 million has been agreed between the parties, with a further earnout adjustment after four years. The transaction is subject to usual closing conditions.

Ajos provides high-quality adaptable buildings for rental to the public sector in Denmark. The company offers temporary housing for schools, daycare and premium office facilities, and generates more than 96 percent of its rental revenues from the public sector. The transaction is yet another step in MT Højgaard Holding’s strategy of focusing on its core business and divesting non-core assets.

Oaklins was engaged by MT Højgaard Holding as strategic and financial advisor in this transaction. The acquisition marks Oaklins’ third transaction as advisor to MT Højgaard in 2021 following the sale of MT Højgaard Holding’s site hut business to CP in October 2021 and the acquisition of Raunstrup in February 2021.

The Oaklins team was instrumental in negotiating and creatively structuring this deal. It wouldn’t have happened without them. MORTEN HANSEN, CEO – MT HØJGAARD HOLDING
