Anecta advises Spares Nordic in sale to Verdane

Spares Nordic is one of the Nordic Region’s leading B2B distributors of spare parts and accessories for smartphones and tablets. With a cross-border network, the company supplies original parts and accessories for the majority of the world’s biggest brands to repairers on the Nordic market. Before the acquisition process, their turnover totalled SEK 136 million with an operating profit of around SEK 15 million. With Anecta as an advisor, Spares found a new ownership structure together with Verdane where both actors saw eye to eye in the company’s valuations, identified growth potential and future goals.

We are unbelievably happy and satisfied with the whole transaction process and the professional support we have received from Anecta. We are now armed for a continued growth journey with Verdane with good business prospects

– Robert Geokhaji, owner. Spares Nordic

Verdane is a private equity company with a focus on technology-based growth companies in Northern Europe. The company works actively with their portfolio companies in order to achieve durable long-term growth with a lasting competitive edge.

Update: A little over one year after Anecta’s sell side mandate and sale to Verdane, Spares Nordic now has a turnover of around SEK 600 million with an operating profit of around SEK 48 million.

Anecta’s comments

The sale of Spares Nordic to Verdane is a success story that we as strategic and financial advisors for Spares are proud of. The growth that they have achieved together some time after the acquisition is really great to see, and proof that Anecta has succeeded in helping Sweden’s entrepreneurs find the right buyers for their desired growth.

– Eric Forsner, Managing Partner
