Medium-term Group revenue target for 2025 of at least EUR 7.0 billion and net income target between EUR 125 and 150 million for Mutares Holding reaffirmed
High transaction pace in 2022 with already twelve acquisitions in ten months and the second largest exit in the Company’s history
Portfolio maturity offers opportunities for further lucrative exits
Balanced dividend policy announced for 2022
Munich, 21 October 2022 – Mutares SE & Co. KGaA (ISIN: DE000A2NB650) (“Mutares”) yesterday presented its current strategy and expected business development until 2025 as well as its major investments La Rochette and Frigoscandia at the Capital Markets Day 2022. More than 200 participating investors, analysts and press representatives attended the hybrid event in Frankfurt am Main.
The current market and economic environment offer ideal conditions for Mutares to significantly expand its portfolio. The continuous expansion of the international presence ensures a sustained transaction flow for the planned growth. Mutares can currently draw from a deal pipeline with a revenue volume of more than EUR 8 billion and thus from the full. “We have already made twelve acquisitions in 2022 and in the coming months we will focus on generating further growth from the opportunity pool, which is despite these challenging times increasing strongly, and on growing further, especially in other European countries. At the same time, we have successfully realized the second largest exit in the history of Mutares with Nordec Group this year and see good opportunities in the next quarters to realize the first exits of the acquisitions from 2019, the beginning of our growth story,” says Johannes Laumann, CIO of Mutares.
“Our track record over the past years demonstrates that Mutares generates and, above all, delivers sustainable value creation as promised, even in abnormal market situations – be it in times of pandemics or geopolitical tensions and the associated recessionary economic environment. This is also true for the future and especially our target to grow to consolidated revenues of at least EUR 7.0 billion by 2025, which suggests a dividend-related net income target of between EUR 125 and 150 million for Mutares shareholders,” adds Robin Laik, founder and CEO of Mutares.
