HUMBLE HAS BEEN SUBJECT TO A POTENTIAL TAKEOVER OFFER
Humble Group AB (publ) ("Humble") has during the autumn been in advanced discussions and a process with an international financial sponsor (the "Stakeholder") regarding a potential public takeover offer regarding the acquisition of all shares in Humble. The Stakeholder and certain shareholders in Humble have not agreed on the price for the potential takeover and the discussions with the Stakeholder have now ended.
"I see the advanced process as a proof of quality on the attractiveness of our platform and the unique position we have. We see continued high organic growth during the fourth quarter and have set new sales records in both October and November. During the year, we have had a focus on structural work and establishing an organization capable of supporting the group's development, where we have come a long way in the IFRS conversion. Our aim is to complete the change of accounting standard early next year, which is part of the preparations required to enable a list change. All in all, we look forward to 2023 where we will continue to gain market share and prioritize strengthening the group's cash flows and profitability." says Simon Petrén, CEO, Humble Group AB (publ).
