Qualium set to exit Exxelia

Negotiations are thought to be in the final stages. The deal would be a quartenary buyout for the company formerly known as Eurofarad. AXA Private Equity bought it from a private vendor in 1998; it subsequently sold it to Chequers Capital for €100m in 2003, which then passed it on to CDC Capital Investissement in 2007.

Qualium is said to have put up a price tag significantly in excess of €100m, despite a dip in revenues for 2009 (€73.9m, down from €85.9m the previous year).
