Deal

Herkules acquires Bandak

Herkules Private Equity Fund III is set to acquire 62 percent of Bandak Holding AS.

Bandak Holding consists of a group of Norwegian machining companies that focus on the production of mechanical engineering products for domestic and international sales and technology companies. Bandak mainly produces for the oil & gas and renewable energy sectors, and has grown substantially both organically and through acquisitions over the last couple of years.

The transaction will be a combination of partly acquiring existing shares and partly injecting capital through a new share issue, taking the Herkules' ownership to 62 percent.

Completion of the deal is expected following approval by the Norwegian competition authorities
