Henrik Blomquist CEO

In this quarterly report we once again have the pleasure of announcing the completion of a new investment, and thereby the addition of a new portfolio company. In September we invested SEK 189M in Cavotec, which is listed on Nasdaq OMX.

Cavotec is a global engineering group that provides products and systems for ports, airports, mining and the general industrial sector. Cavotec is undergoing an exciting transformation phase from a supplier of smaller components for major industry operators to a high-tech product-owning industrial concern that can deliver complete systems and projects.

Cavotec has had a successful history since its forma­tion by three entrepreneurs almost 40 years ago. Patrik Tigerschiöld from Bure has been elected to the company’s board of directors and my hope is that Bure, as a long-term and financially strong owner, can assist the company in the above mentioned transformation. Following this investment, Bure holds a total of 10 per cent of the share capital and votes in Cavotec.

Volatility in the stock market increased during the third quarter and although index ended around the same level as at the start of Q3, nearly all of the year’s gains were erased in the first few weeks of August. Despite this, Bure’s net asset value showed continued positive development in the quarter, with net asset value per share up by over 7 per cent.

After dividends received from Mycronic in August, as well as the completed new investments and share buy­backs after the end of the period, Bure today has more than SEK 300M in investable assets.
