The Dürr Group retains a re-investment in the environmental technology business amounting to approximately 25%. Based on an enterprise value of around €385 million, Dürr expects to receive gross proceeds of between €290 and €310 million in the fourth quarter. After receipt, the gross proceeds will be reduced by transaction-related costs and by taxes arising from the transaction, most of which will become payable in 2026. Not included in the gross proceeds are payments that Dürr will receive for the capital it contributed to the environmental technology companies prior to the sale.
As announced, the book profit resulting from the transaction is expected to range between €220 and €250 million before taxes and between €160 and €190 million after taxes. The exact amounts will be determined once the final balance sheet is available.
The divested Clean Technology Systems Environmental division is a global market leader in exhaust-air purification systems and generated sales of €407 million in 2024 with around 1,300 employees. The divestment represents an important step in the simplification of the Dürr Group’s corporate structure, which was initiated last year. Additional measures included the consolidation of the automotive business into the Automotive division and the sale of the Danish filling technology specialist Agramkow. Under the new structure, the Dürr Group now comprises three divisions, compared with five previously.
Dr. Jochen Weyrauch, CEO of Dürr AG, stated: “With the sale of the environmental technology business, we have successfully completed the simplification of our Group structure. Our focus is now fully on our core business, centered on the sustainable automation of production processes. At the same time, under its new owner Stellex, the environmental technology business is ideally positioned to continue its growth trajectory and explore new business fields.”
Karthik Achar, Partner at Stellex, said: “Alongside a reputable and valued partner in Dürr, we look forward towards driving future growth of the Clean Technology Systems business across the globe, working to bring Stellex’s transatlantic resources to bear.”
