Berlin (pts034/05.08.2010/15:00) - MBB Industries AG (ISIN DE000A0ETBQ4), a holding company whose main focus is on acquiring medium-sized industrial companies with sustainable value growth potential reports the following buy and build acquisition:
DTS Beteiligungen - an 80% subsidiary of MBB Industries - based in Herford has purchased a 100% stake in ICSmedia GmbH, Münster. The company was sold by Aschendorff GmbH & Co. KG with WestOnline GmbH & Co. KG and ICSmedia Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG. A policy of secrecy has been agreed concerning the sale price.
ICSmedia is a regional provider of IT system solutions and operates its own data centre. In addition to its housing, hosting and Internet providing activities, ICSmedia also offers high quality IT-related consultancy services as well as modern application outsourcing. The majority of its business relations are long established. ICSmedia employs 11 people, generating a profitable annual turnover of approximately Eur1.4m in 2009.
CEO Mallmann of DTS is very satisfied: "The business models of ICSmedia and DTS Systeme complement each other in many areas. By acquiring ICSmedia, we have succeeded in gaining a foothold in the important Münsterland region. Thus, ICSmedia is an ideal complement to our sites in Herford, Bochum, Bremen, Hanover and Rhine-Main. Long-established customer relations, a regional focus, and a modern data centre are the key to the success of both ICSmedia and DTS Systeme."
By once again implementing a buy-and-build acquisition of a medium-sized niche market leader, MBB Industries is continuing what has proven to be a successful acquisition strategy. The MBB managing board feels that there is plenty of potential for positive growth as regards the value of DTS, particularly as only few competitors are able to offer the same specific range of services, the demand for IT infrastructures continues to rise, and the business model can be easily transferred to other regions.
