ÅF AB: No Additional Consideration for the Acquisition of Epsilon
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
For further information:
Emma Claesson, VP Human Resources & Communications +46 72 209 47 39
Because of a rumor circulating about arbitration proceedings concerning
additional consideration for the acquisition of Epsilon, ÅF hereby issues the
following statement.
The seller Danir has, without specifying the amount, communicated that Danir
intends to initiate arbitration proceedings to obtain additional payment for the
sale of Epsilon to ÅF. ÅF has been and still is of the opinion that Danir's
claims are entirely unfounded. If Danir initiates arbitration proceedings, ÅF
will contest the claims.
Through an agreement of October 2012, ÅF acquired the shares in Epsilon Holding
and its subsidiaries from Danir AB. The shares were paid partly in cash and
partly through a new issue of ÅF shares. The agreement also entitles Danir to an
additional consideration if the results for the year 2014 reached a certain
level or, if this level was not achieved, based on the result for Epsilon in
2012. ÅF has in the beginning of 2015 paid Danir 104 MSEK which is the
additional consideration Danir is entitled to.
