EQT har solgt de resterende aktier i VVS- og køleteknikgrossisten Beijer Ref for cirka 370 millioner euro.
EQT gennemfører det endelige frasalg af aktier i Beijer Ref, en globalt førende grossist og distributør af køle-, varme-, ventilations- og airconditionteknologi (HVAC)
Under EQT’s ejerskab har Beijer Ref mere end fordoblet omsætningen og tredoblet EBITDA, understøttet af accelereret organisk vækst, disciplinerede opkøb (M&A) og fortsat marginudvikling
Salget resulterede i et samlet bruttoprovenu på ca. 370 millioner EUR til hovedaktionæren, hvoraf EQT IX modtog ca. 275 millioner EUR
EQT køber Corza Biosurgery, hvis bedst kendte produkt er TachoSil-kirurgiplasteret. Det bruges til at stoppe blødninger og lukke væv ved de mest krævende operationer.
EQT planlægger at accelerere virksomhedens vækst ved at udvide salget til nye markeder, udvikle produkter og foretage yderligere opkøb. Handlen forventes gennemført i slutningen af dette år.
Denne nyhed kom som en PRESSEmeddelelse. Corza Medicals omsætning er vist på en halv milliard, som EQT køber dette af, og hvis jeg har forstået det ret, så har Corza Biosurgery kun været en lille del af Corza Medical, så det er vel ikke nogen kæmpe handel.
EQT erhverver Corza Biosurgery, en førende virksomhed inden for biokirurgi centreret omkring TachoSil, et førende hæmostatikum og forseglingsplaster, der anvendes inden for en bred vifte af kirurgiske specialer
TachoSil understøtter forbedrede kirurgiske resultater gennem hurtig blødningskontrol og vævsforsegling og er understøttet af omfattende klinisk dokumentation, sundhedsøkonomiske data og opbakning fra kirurger
EQT vil støtte TachoSil og dets ledelsesteam, ledet af Thierry Leclercq, i deres næste vækstfase ved at investere i kommerciel acceleration, indikations- og geografisk ekspansion, innovation og ved at opbygge en bredere biokirurgisk platform gennem M&A
EQT opkøber Copia Power, som udvikler energiinfrastruktur og datacentercampusser i USA.
Copias model kombinerer elproduktion, transmissionsnet og datacentre, hvilket fremskynder opførelsen af den infrastruktur, der især er nødvendig for AI. EQT har til hensigt at vækste virksomheden, accelerere projekter og udnytte synergier med sine andre investeringer inden for energi, fibernet og datacentre.
Handlen forventes at blive gennemført inden udgangen af dette år.
Copia Power udvikler, ejer og driver integrerede energimæssige og digitale infrastrukturer i stor skala på tværs af USA.
Copia arbejder sammen med forsyningsselskaber for at frigøre ny strømkapacitet, fremskynde infrastrukturudvikling og understøtte en bæredygtig, langsigtet netstabilitet og overkommelige priser for forbrugerne.
En stærkt tematisk investering, der støtter udbygningen af amerikansk AI-infrastruktur, hvor adgang til skalerbar og pålidelig strøm er blevet en stadig mere kritisk forudsætning for fortsat udvikling af datacentre.
EQT vil indgå i et partnerskab med Copia Powers ledelsesteam for at opskalere platformen, fremskynde prioriterede udviklingsprojekter og udvide deres integrerede campusmodel i hele USA.
EQT er kommet stærkt fra start i år, da både omsætning og resultat er vokset markant.
Virksomheden har øget sine investeringer, især inden for AI-infrastruktur, hvor den nye fond angiveligt har fået en flyvende start. Der blev også foretaget væsentligt flere nye investeringer end tidligere, og virksomheden går ind i årets sidste del med stor selvtillid takket være den gode investerings- og kapitalrejsningssituation.
EQT køber fjorten logistikejendomme af Logicor i Storbritannien, Tyskland og Frankrig for cirka en halv milliard euro.
Ejendommene er fuldt udlejede og er placeret i nærheden af vigtige transportruter. Ifølge selskabet styrker handlen EQT’s position inden for europæiske logistikejendomme og understøtter samtidig selskabets langsigtede vækst.
EQT Real Estate har indgået aftale om at erhverve en portefølje på 14 logistikejendomme på tværs af Storbritannien, Tyskland og Frankrig fra Logicor
Porteføljen omfatter cirka 457.000 kvadratmeter moderne, fuldt udlejet logistikareal
Erhvervelsen styrker yderligere EQT Real Estates europæiske logistikplatform og tilføjer volumen på tværs af etablerede distributionskorridorer og centrale forbrugscentre
EQT Real Estate er glade for at kunne annoncere, at EQT Real Estate Europe Logistics Value Fund V (“EQT Real Estate”) har indgået aftale om at erhverve en paneuropæisk logistikportefølje med 14 aktiver fra Logicor for 532 millioner EUR.
Porteføljen omfatter cirka 457.000 kvadratmeter logistikareal fordelt på otte aktiver i Storbritannien, fire i Tyskland og to i Frankrig. Ejendommene er fuldt udlejede til en diversificeret gruppe af lejere inden for detailhandel, e-handel, logistik og industri og er placeret på store distributionsmarkeder med adgang til vigtige transportnetværk og befolkningscentre.
Jonathan Mackie, Managing Director hos EQT Real Estate, udtaler: “Europæisk logistik er fortsat en af vores sektorer med højest overbevisning, understøttet af en vedvarende efterspørgsel fra lejere efter velbeliggende ejendomme af høj kvalitet. Vi er glade for at udvide vores tilstedeværelse yderligere gennem denne erhvervelse fra Logicor, som tilføjer en diversificeret portefølje af ejendomme af høj kvalitet og skaber en stærk platform for langsigtet vækst.”
Ryan Pappas, Chief Investment Officer hos Logicor, udtaler: “Vi er særligt glade for at have indgået endnu en transaktion med EQT, en højt respekteret og professionel partner, hvilket afspejler den fortsatte appel af logistikejendomme i topklasse og styrken af langsigtede relationer i vores sektor.”
Overdragelsen af de britiske aktiver er gennemført, mens færdiggørelsen af de tyske og franske aktiver fortsat afventer sædvanlige betingelser for closing.
EQT’s nye Scaleup Europe-fond har foretaget sin første investering i det finsk-grundlagte ICEYE ved at deltage i en stor finansieringsrunde.
Fonden ønsker at sætte skub i væksten for Europas mest lovende teknologivirksomheder og “indsnævre” manglen på vækstkapital. ICEYE er særligt kendt for sine satellitbaserede rum-efterretningsløsninger, som mange europæiske lande allerede gør brug af.
ICEYE, der har haft hovedkvarter i Finland siden 2014, ejer og driver verdens største konstellation af satellitter med syntetisk apertur-radar (SAR)
Finansieringsrunden - som blev co-ledet af Scaleup Europe Fund - omfattede 450 millioner euro i primært provenu fra Series F til en værdiansættelse på over 10 milliarder euro
Investeringen demonstrerer et stærkt tidligt momentum for Scaleup Europe Fund - som har et mål om en fondsstørrelse på 5 milliarder euro - idet den begynder at støtte Europas mest lovende teknologivirksomheder og arbejder på at bygge bro over kontinentets hul i scaleup-finansiering
EQT har solgt en portefølje på 20 logistikejendomme i USA.
Virksomheden sammensatte porteføljen fra 2020 og frem, og ifølge pressemeddelelsen øgede de værdien ved at udleje og renovere objekterne. Købsprisen er ikke oplyst.
Porteføljen udgør ca. 4,4 millioner kvadratfod (ca. 408.773 kvadratmeter) fordelt på 20 logistikaktiver i St. Louis, Cincinnati, Columbus, Dayton, Cleveland og Louisville
EQT Real Estate sammensatte porteføljen fra 2020 og fremefter og styrkede aktiverne gennem udlejning, bygningsopgraderinger og aktiv lokal forvaltning
Transaktionen understreger den store køberinteresse for stabiliserede, velbeliggende logistikporteføljer af en vis skala i det centrale USA
EQT sælger 46 moderne logistikejendomme til LBA Realty i det sydøstlige USA.
Bygningerne huser for eksempel lagre, distributionscentre, fremstillingsindustri osv. Områdets befolkning siges at vokse, transportforbindelserne og havnene er gode, så EQT mener, at der også vil være efterspørgsel efter lager- og transportfaciliteter i fremtiden.
46 Class A logistics buildings totaling approximately 10.5 million square feet across 10 southeast markets in the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, and Alabama
The state of the art logistics assets average roughly 230,000 square feet and house a diverse range of tenants servicing the southeast from last-touch operations, regional distributions centers, advanced manufacturing, and bulk distribution
All 10 portfolio markets are recording positive population growth generating sustained Southeast logistics demand
Jeg ved ikke, hvor vigtig en nyhed det er, men interessant er den i hvert fald.
Amazon har indgået langsigtede PPA’er (Power Purchase Agreements) med svenske vindmølleparker i forbindelse med udvidelsen af selskabets datacentekapacitet i landet.
De nye aftaler øger selskabets elforsyning med næsten 200 megawatt. Og vindmølleparkerne udvikles af… Eolus og… OX2, der ejes af EQT.
EQT har gennemført opkøbet af Coller Capital til en værdi af 3,2 milliarder dollars.
Coller køber og sælger andele i allerede eksisterende kapitalfonde (private equity-fonde). Virksomhedshandlen styrker EQT’s position inden for denne hastigt voksende sektor. Samtidig stiger EQT’s samlede forvaltede formue (AUM) til 341 milliarder euro.
Coller Capital, der nu opererer som Coller EQT, er en af de største dedikerede platforme for sekundære markeder globalt, med dyb ekspertise i både LP- og GP-ledede sekundære transaktioner.
Kombinationen placerer EQT stærkt på det hurtigt voksende sekundære marked – som så en transaktionsvolumen på over 120 milliarder dollars i første halvdel af 2026, hvilket er det stærkeste første halvår nogensinde1 – og bringer firmaets samlede forvaltede formue op på 341 milliarder euro (389 milliarder dollars)2.
Coller EQT er gået i gang med de tidlige forberedelser til fortsat ekspansion i nye aktivklasser, og EQT er fortsat dedikeret til at fordoble Collers forvaltede formue (FAUM) inden for fire år.
EQT opretter en ny fond, gennem hvilken velhavende investorer kan komme med i asiatiske unoterede vækstselskaber. Selskabet ser store muligheder i regionen, da Asien vokser hurtigt, men fortsat kun modtager en lille del af verdens private equity-investeringer.
Fonden investerer bl.a. i teknologi, sundhed og industri.
\u003e * EQT Nexus Asia provides eligible individual and institutional investors access to EQT Private Capital’s Asia Pacific platform through a single evergreen strategy
\u003e * Asia accounts for approximately 60% of the world’s population and 60% of global economic growth, yet receives less than 5% of global private equity allocations, creating attractive entry points for the region’s expanding buyout market
\u003e * EQT is well-positioned to capture Asia’s structural tailwinds, building on a 30-year track record of investing in the region, and a dedicated team of over 150 investment professionals based across nine local offices
Strong fundraising momentum and attractive deal flow
"As we enter the final quarter of the year, and I reflect on the challenges and opportunities ahead for private market investors, the attractiveness of the EQT platform is clear. Our newest initiatives - the AI Infrastructure strategy and the Scaleup Europe Fund - have exceptional early momentum and reflect the positive client reception to our newly launched thematic strategies in areas of strength for our platform. In Q3, we closed the acquisition of Coller Capital, making us an even more strategic partner for private market investors. And today we announce the acquisition of Stockbridge, marking the next step in the development of the EQT Real Estate business line. In the quarter we also established our first office in the Middle East. Across strategies we see good deal flow and value creation, and we remain focused on driving monetisations and liquidity."
Per Franzén,
CEO and Managing Partner

As of this Q3 Announcement, EQT reports Secondaries as a separate operating segment, following the closing of the Coller Capital transaction. As per this announcement, EQT has a four-segment reporting structure: Private Capital, Infrastructure, Real Estate and Secondaries
Following the closing of the Coller Capital transaction, Coller EQT will align the reporting of FAUM with EQT’s reporting framework, whereby the step-down in fee rate is reflected in the capital base, in line with EQT’s definition. The change means that the average fee rate will increase equivalently. As of Q3, Coller EQT’s FAUM amounts to $38bn compared to $33bn when aligned to EQT’s reporting framework. This change does not impact fund economics or outlook. The aligned reporting will apply from Q4 2026 onwards. This will also have a one-time impact on the older Life Sciences funds that historically have been stepping down in fee-rates and not capital base

On 15 October 2026, EQT signed an agreement to acquire Stockbridge, a leading U.S. real estate investment manager1

Note that only co-investments and NAV appreciation are incremental to EQT AB’s FAUM related to evergreens, as fund-of-fund investments are already accounted for in the underlying funds
Following closing, Coller Capital employees have been integrated into the EQT organization

Information on EQT AB’s financial reporting
The EQT AB Group has a long-term business model founded on a promise to its fund investors to invest capital, drive value creation and create consistent attractive returns over a 5 to 10-year horizon. The Group’s financial model is primarily affected by the size of its fee-generating assets under management, the performance of the EQT funds and its ability to recruit and retain top talent.
The Group operates in a market driven by long-term trends and thus believes quarterly financial statements are less relevant for investors. However, in order to provide the market with relevant and suitable information about the Group’s development, EQT publishes quarterly announcements with key operating numbers that are relevant for the business performance (taking Nasdaq’s guidance note for preparing interim management statements into consideration). In addition, a half-year report and a year-end report including financial statements and further information relevant for investors is published. Finally, EQT also publishes an annual report including sustainability reporting.
Her er en separat artikel om, at EQT opkøber det amerikanske ejendomsinvesteringsselskab Stockbridge. Artiklen indeholder også andre ting.
Handlen forventes gennemført i begyndelsen af næste år. Den samlede værdi af EQT’s aktiver under forvaltning voksede i løbet af året fra 267 milliarder til 354 milliarder euro, primært takket være opkøbet af Coller Capital.
Selskabet rejser kapital til nye fonde, men gav ikke nogen forventninger til sin økonomiske udvikling.
