The purchase price for Altus is SEK 37 million and an additional earn-out which in total will imply a multiple of 5-6 times Ebita before potential synergies.

Hans Ståhl, President and CEO of NCAB Group, made the following comment: “We have been looking at Altus-PCB for some time and are delighted with this acquisition. It is a smaller acquisition but a great fit with NCAB. Our goal is to grow profitably, particularly in the USA, and Altus is especially interesting considering its operations in the high-tech area. We can see quite a number of synergies with NCAB. For example, we can provide Altus customers with access to many more factories in China and, as we have seen in the past, we can also apply our better delivery and payment conditions to their purchases.”
