Den svenske kapitalfond EQT har indgået en aftale om at sælge 30% af Nordic Ferry Infrastructure til det nye konsortium NP HoldCo. Det nye konsortium NP HoldCo består af Rederiaktiebolaget Gotland (Gotlandsbolaget), kapitalfonden Interogo Infrastructure og Lægernes Pension. Gotlandsbolaget bliver den største ejer i NP HoldCo med 54%.
“This transaction marks an important milestone for Nordic Ferry Infrastructure. We are pleased to welcome new long-term partners – Gotlandsbolaget brings more than 160 years of experience navigating the Nordic seas, and the broadened investor base is well positioned to support management in the next phase of NFI’s development as a leading ferry infrastructure operator across the Nordics.”
Ulrich Köllensperger, Partner at EQT Infrastructure.
Nordic Ferry Infrastructure ejer de to rederier Molslinjen og norske Torghatten. Rederiaktiebolaget Gotland udvider dermed deres tilstedeværelse i Danmark og Norge, da de allerede ejer Go Nordic Cruiseline, som sejler mellem København og Oslo.
“Nordic Ferry Infrastructure is an attractive long-term investment, in line with our strategy to expand in sustainable maritime transportation infrastructure and take a leading role in the development of maritime transportation in the Nordics.”
Björn Nilsson, CEO of Gotlandsbolaget.
Prisen for de 30% af Nordic Ferry Infrastructure er ca. 510 millioner euro. EQT vil fortsat eje de sidste 70%. Handlen er betinget af, at den kan godkendes af bl.a. myndighederne og forventes derfor gennemført under 3. kvartal 2026.
“With EQT, we have built a stronger and a pan-Nordic company, bringing together operators into one platform with a shared strategy and culture. As we enter this next phase, we look forward to working with our new partners to continue improving our services, investing in our fleet, and advancing the transition to more sustainable transport across the Nordics.”
Carsten Jensen, CEO of Nordic Ferry Infrastructure.
