New bolt-on for Nordstjernan investee

Following the acquisition, the enlarged group will have a patient roster of around 250,000 people and will employ approximately 775 staff. Group sales will rise by around 40% to more than SEK 1bn.

The deal comes a year after Lideta first received backing from Nordstjernan. Lideta also owns the Mama Mia healthcare business, which was acquired shortly after Nordstjernan came on board as a reference backer.

The latest transaction means Lideta will become Sweden's third largest private operator in primary healthcare, according to a statement.

Completion of the deal is subject to approval from local competition authorities.

Company
A total of 11 care centres are being brought under Lideta control. Between them, they employ 275 full-time staff treating more than 100,000 patients, and are collectively expected to generate in the region of SEK 325m in sales for 2018.
