Butler-backed Sernam interested in Mory
French industrial delivery services company Sernam, owned by turnaround fund Butler Capital, is reportedly looking to acquire rival Mory.
The Pantin-based transporter posted a €731m turnover and €11.8m EBITDA in 2009. Its financials improved in 2010, according to media reports. Mory currently employs in excess of 5,000 people.
Butler Capital acquired 51.8% of troubled industrial delivery services company Sernam in 2007. The turnaround investor paid €10.3m in equity and convertible bonds for its stake, which valued the business post-money at around €14m.
Sernam is a former subsidiary of French state rail group SNCF, which specialises in delivery services and logistics. The group has 52 branches across France and employed 1,900 staff in 2009.
