Bulten acquires industrial and office property in Hallstahammar


Bulten AB (publ) has, via a subsidiary, signed an agreement with Söderport
Fastigheter AB, which AB Sagax (publ) owns equally with Hemfosa Fastigheter AB,
to acquire an industrial and office property designated Hallstahammar Hallsta
3:7 (the “Property”) in which Bulten currently conducts its operations in
Hallstahammar. The acquisition is taking place indirectly through the
acquisition of all the shares in Söderport HallstahamHall AB (the ”Property
company”). The underlying value of the Property agreed by the parties amounts to
SEK 116.3 million. The total preliminary purchase price for the indirect
acquisition of the Property amounts to SEK 113.3 million. In connection with the
acquisition Bulten will utilise a property credit of SEK 55 million of the total
general credit of SEK 460 million from current creditors.
Bulten has been conducting operations for many years in Hallstahammar at the
current Property and is today the head tenant of the Property. The tenantship
with the seller will be terminated when the acquisition is concluded.

”The acquisition of the Property is a strategically correct deal that
strengthens Bulten's long-term competitiveness. At the same time it will have a
positive impact on Bulten’s results with an annual operating profit improvement
of approximately SEK 8 million already from 2016. The deal will annually improve
the business’ operating cash flow with SEK 13 million,” says Tommy Andersson,
Bulten’s President and CEO.

The preliminary purchase price will be paid in cash on the closing which will
take place on 1 December 2015. Of the preliminary purchase price of SEK 113.3
million, SEK 103.4 million represents the purchase price of the shares and SEK
9.9 million represents a refunding of the Property company’s debt to Söderport
Fastigheter AB. The final purchase price will be adjusted on basis of the actual
outcome of the confirmed closing accounts.
