Mutares AG\u2019s (ISIN: DE000A0SMSH2) portfolio company Balcke-D\u00fcrr produces components to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions for the energy sector and chemical industry and is part of the Mutares Group since December 2016.<\/p>\n<p>After having accomplished successfully the turnaround milestones in 2017, including the closure of a site and streamlining of production at its central site, the order intake of Balcke-D\u00fcrr Group surpasses expectations considerably. Combined with the implemented sustainable structural changes, this development has led to management estimating for 2018 the first positive result for Balcke-D\u00fcrr Group since 2012. Due to the shift in strategy and major adjustments in the cost structure Balcke-D\u00fcrr expects stable growth in 2018, both organically as well as through acquisitions.<\/p>\n<p>The first add-on transaction has already been completed in November 2017 when Donges SteelTec was acquired from Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems Europe (MHPSE). In January 2018, the second acquisition followed, when Balcke-D\u00fcrr signed an agreement to take over the Heat Transfer Products (HTP) Division of STF, a former direct competitor based in Italy.<\/p>\n<p>For 2018, further add-on acquisitions are in the pipeline. Thus, management outlook for Balcke-D\u00fcrr through 2019 is strong, backed by the refocusing of activities combined with an attractive deal flow in this challenging market implying both organic growth and increasing market share.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dusseldorf, Germany.
