  • Erstklassige Produktions-, Forschungs-, Entwicklungs- und Vertriebsstätten in Aneby, Schweden
  • Attends hat einen jährlichen Run Rate Umsatz von 140 Millionen Euro und Vertriebsorganisationen in neun europäischen Ländern

Die Domtar Corporation (NYSE: UFS) (TSX: UFS) gab heute die Unterzeichnung eines endgültigen Vertrags mit Rutland Partners über die Übernahme der Attends Healthcare Limited ("Attends Europe"), einem Hersteller und Lieferanten von Inkontinenzprodukten für Erwachsene in Europa, bekannt. Der Kaufpreis beträgt 180 Millionen Euro. Der Abschluss des Geschäfts wird innerhalb des ersten Quartals 2012 erwartet und unterliegt den üblichen regulatorischen Bestimmungen.

"Die Übernahme von Attends Europe ist ein weiterer Schritt in die Richtung, die wir letzten Sommer eingeschlagen haben, und dehnt unseren Besitz der Marke Attends auf beide Seiten des Atlantiks aus. Diese Übernahme bietet eine weitere Wachstumsplattform mit einem gut etablierten Unternehmen, das die nötige Größe hat, zusätzlich zu unserem aktuellen nordamerikanischen Geschäft auch Produktentwicklung und Markenwachstum voranzutreiben", sagte John D. Williams, President und CEO von Domtar. "Die Nachfrage nach Inkontinenzprodukten in Europa ist hoch und unser Ziel ist es, die Gewinne innerhalb der nächsten fünf Jahre zu verdoppeln."

Attends Europe verkauft und vermarktet ein komplettes Angebot an Inkontinenzprodukten für Erwachsene. Zum Portfolio zählen sowohl Markenprodukte als auch Eigenmarken. Das Unternehmen vertreibt seine Produkte über verschiedene Kanäle und unterhält eigene Vertriebsorganisationen in neun europäischen Ländern. Attends Europe verfügt über eine erstklassige 34.000 Quadratmeter große Produktionsanlage mit acht Fertigungsstraßen, einem Forschungs- und Entwicklungszentrum und einem Vertriebszentrum in Aneby, Schweden. Es betreibt außerdem Vertriebszentren in Schottland und Deutschland. Attends erzeilt mit 413 Mitarbeiter, einen Umsatz von 140 Millionen Euro und einen EBITDA von 23 Millionen Euro.

James Steele bleibt Geschäftsführer der Attends Healthcare Limited. Das übernommene Unternehmen wird in die Sparte "Personal Care" von Domtar integriert. Die Finanzinformationen von Domtar liegen der Securities and Exchange Commission [Wertpapier- und Börsenaufsichtsbehörde] vor. Domtar wird den Kauf aus Barmitteln bezahlen und plant bis zum Abschluss der Transaktion einen Großteil der offenen Schulden von Attends Europe zu tilgen.
