Herkules-backed Seagull Maritime buys Tero Marine
Herkules Capital portfolio company Seagull Maritime has acquired Tero Marine, a fleet management software provider for the shipping industry.
Seagull CEO Roger Ringstad said in a statement that there would be no organisational changes and the companies will continue to operate as separate businesses.
Herkules bought Seagull for around €100m in 2015 through Herkules IV, a NOK 2.5bn buyout fund that closed in 2014, short of its NOK 4bn target. It acquired the firm from GMT Communications Partners, which acquired the business from its management team in 2012.
