HANZA sells real estate in Finland

HANZA Holding AB (publ) has today sold its real estate in Riihimäki, Finland.
The sales of the building does not affect manufacturing, as Riihimäki already
previously has been excluded from HANZA operations. However the sales is an
integrated part of HANZA’s Cluster strategy

“A key reason for HANZA’s success is how we develop unique Manufacturing
Clusters”, says Erik Stenfors, CEO HANZA. “We collect different manufacturing
expertise in certain geographical areas, to provide a complete manufacturing
-chain with high flexibility and total quality and cost control.”

The transaction will lower HANZA’s debt by 11 MSEK and results in a capital gain
of 2 MSEK in Q2, 2016.

"The costs of our cluster development stays limited due to that we balance the
costs with revenues from the sale of surplus assets” says Erik Stenfors, CEO
HANZA.
