Imtech announces the successful completion of the sale of the Imtech ICT division to VINCI Energies. The Imtech ICT division is divested at an enterprise value of 255 million euro. This divestment is an important part of Imtech`s debt reduction programme.
The immediate cash proceeds from the divestment are 188 million euro and will be used for enhancement of the liquidity position and for the debt reduction programme. The difference between the enterprise value and immediate cash proceeds relate to a 26 million euro guarantee deposit, customary finance adjustments and transaction costs.
