The necessary approvals from the authorities have been obtained for the acquisition, and the usual terms of business acquisitions have been fulfilled.

The purchase price of the acquisition was paid by issuing shares in the company to the sellers in accordance with the authorisation granted by Componenta’s Extraordinary General Meeting held on 1 July 2019.

The acquisition of Komas expands Componenta’s range of products and services and improves the quality of Componenta's customer service by creating a one-stop-shop for industries that purchase cast and machined components. Componenta and Komas already have several common customers. Komas will also bring new expertise to Componenta.
