Harvia to pay additional purchase price of the Kirami acquisition
in advance
Harvia
Plc
Stock exchange release
December 21, 2023 at 4.00 P.M. EET
Harvia Plc announced on 28 May 2021 that it had signed an
agreement to acquire Kirami Oy. The acquisition complemented
Harvia’s sauna and spa offering well with Scandinavian hot tubs and
strengthened Harvia’s leading position as a global sauna and spa
experience brand.
The original purchase price was EUR 7 million at closing and on
top of this, a delayed purchase price of EUR 0–4 million after a
three years’ period based on Kirami’s EBITDA development. Harvia
and the sellers of Kirami have agreed that Harvia will pay the
additional purchase price of EUR 2.5 million earlier than
previously announced, on 21 December 2023.
Paying the additional purchase price in advance enables closer
integration of Kirami into Harvia’s other business operations in
conjunction with the reorganization of Harvia’s organizational
structure. Harvia announced on 17 October 2023 that it will change
its organizational structure as of 1 January 2024 by, for example,
dividing its business operations into four geographical sales
regions and five Group functions. The new organizational structure
will, among other things, increase Harvia’s customer and market
orientation and drive the company’s organic growth.
Harvia will finance the payment of the additional purchase price
with cash funds. The paid amount is approximately EUR 1.2 million
smaller than the provision Harvia made in connection with the
acquisition. This difference will improve Harvia’s 2023 result, and
it will be presented as changes in the fair value of financial
items in the income statement.
