As communicated on June 22, Saferoad entered an agreement to divest the Swedish Water & Sewage business to Ahlsell AB. The divestment also includes a cooperation agreement with Ahlsell for the distribution of Saferoad's advanced geotechnical products used in small and medium-sized construction projects in Norway and Sweden.

The transaction is structured as a transfer of assets including inventories, equipment and immaterial property related to the Swedish Water & Sewage operations of Saferoad's subsidiary, ViaCon AB, which is part of the Road Infrastructure Nordic division. The transaction will have a positive impact on the Group's EBITDA margin. The gross cash proceeds will be approximately SEK 90 million, depending on the value of inventory at closing, and the transaction is expected to result in a minor accounting gain.
