    30-06-2022

    We advised Enersense Group Oyj (listed on Nasdaq Helsinki) in its acquisition of the shares of Voimatel Oy through a share exchange and in a simultaneously carried out directed share issue to the seller, KPY Cooperative. The transaction further includes the target company’s foreign subsidiaries in Sweden and Estonia. The transaction is subject to the approval of, among others, the Finnish Competition and Consumer Authority.

    The turnover of the new entity would be approximately EUR 370 million, and the group would employ approximately 3000 people. Upon completion of the corporate transaction, Voimatel’s data network business will be reported as part of Enersense’s Connectivity segment and the electrical network business as part of the Power segment. The Connectivity segment is involved in all phases of the life cycles of the data networks and following the corporate transaction it will strengthen its position in telecommunications networks. The Power segment is a key player in implementing the energy transition with comprehensive services in electricity transmission and distribution as well as renewable energy projects.
