MCF supports Stål & Hyr Group in the acquisition of Aros Hyresmaskiner
Stål & Hyr Group AB (“Stål & Hyr”), 100% owned by Renta, one of the larger Nordic players within the construction equipment rental, has acquired 100% of the shares in Aros Hyresmaskiner i Västerås AB (“Aros Hyresmaskiner”) from the four founders and the CEO. Through this transaction, Stål & Hyr strengthens its position in the important Swedish rental market and creates a strong platform for growth in the Stockholm region. MCF acted as financial adviser to Stål & Hyr and the transaction represents MCF’s 2nd successful mandate for Renta and Stål & Hyr this year.
The Deal
The acquisition of Aros Hyresmaskiner is in line with Stål & Hyr’s and Renta’s strategy – to establish a strong depot network in Sweden and leverage on being a strong and agile Nordic player in the construction market. By acquiring Aros Hyresmaskiner, Stål & Hyr will gain access to the important Stockholm market, which will be key to the continued expansion and establishment of Stål & Hyr and Renta as one of the leading construction equipment rental groups in Sweden.
The Target
Aros Hyresmaskiner was established in the early nineties, and is a Swedish rental provider of machinery, tools and equipment- all with a special niche focus on on-site modules, electricity and heating. With its strong offering and customer centric value proposition, Aros Hyresmaskiner is a perfect fit for Stål & Hyr in the company’s market expansion and for establishing a strong presence in the Stockholm-Mälardalen region.
