As of today, Fagerhult Group has completed the acquisition of 100 percent of the shares in Trato SAS, including its wholly owned subsidiaries Trato Industries SAS, TLV SAS, and Biolume SAS, which together form the Trato TLV Group. The business is based in Lille, France.

The acquisition, which was first announced on 4 April 2025 through the signing of a binding agreement, followed by consultations with the relevant employee representative bodies within the Trato TLV Group and approvals from the relevant French regulatory authorities, has now been granted unconditionally.

Trato TLV Group, which operates in the lighting industry and the healthcare equipment market, will become part of Business Area Professional and will be included in Fagerhult Group’s financial reporting as of 1 July 2025.

Bodil Sonesson, CEO Fagerhult Group, comments:

“I am very pleased that we have now completed the acquisition of Trato TLV Group. The acquisition strengthens the Group’s overall strategy, and we look forward to realizing additional synergies and continuing to drive growth, both in the local and international markets.”

In 2024, Trato TLV Group had net sales of 56 million euros and employed 230 people. As previously communicated, the acquisition is expected to have a positive effect on earnings per share in 2025 and beyond. On a proforma basis the acquisition will increase the Fagerhult Group’s Net Debt to EBITDA ratio as at the fourth quarter 2024 from 2.00x to 2.55x. The transaction is financed with existing cash and new credit facilities.
