Fagerhult completes Lighting Innovations acquisition in South Africa

Fagerhult has completed the acquisition of the assets of Lighting Innovations
based in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, and the assets of the subsidiary
companies Beacon Lighting and Arrow Lighting. The acquisition is expected to
have a positive effect on the earnings per share during 2016 and forward.

The three companies have 210 employees and manufacture lighting fixtures and
solutions primarily for the indoor commercial sector. Typical application areas
include commercial offices, retail, hospitals and educational buildings. In the
year ending June 2015, the companies had a combined sales of approximately 13
MEUR.

“One key element of our strategy is to increase our market position in emerging
markets. With this acquisition we gain access to the South African market and
several interesting growth opportunities within the dynamic Sub Saharan Africa
region. I am also very pleased that Mr. Craig Waddell will remain with the
company in the position of Managing Director and continue to build on the strong
platform that he and especially his father, Mr. Bruce Waddell, has established
since founding the company”, comments Johan Hjertonsson, CEO Fagerhult.

Fagerhult pays MEUR 7,7 on a cash and debt free basis, for the assets of the
three companies. An additional earnout can be paid until 2018 tied to the
company performance. The transaction is financed with new credit facilities.
