Rieter<\/a> has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Barmag from OC Oerlikon<\/a> for an upfront equity purchase price of CHF 713 million. The acquisition will create a globally leading player in natural and manmade fibers, headquartered in Winterthur, Switzerland, and is highly complementary to Rieter\u2019s short-staple fiber business.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barmag is a provider of filament spinning systems used for manufacturing manmade fibers, texturing machines, BCF systems, staple fiber spinning<\/a> and nonwovens solutions and \u2013 as an engineering services provider \u2013 offers solutions along the textile value chain. In the financial year 2024, the company generated sales of CHF 734 million with around 2 600 employees.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barmag comprises the established product brands Oerlikon Barmag, Oerlikon Neumag and Oerlikon Nonwoven. The main markets for the Barmag product portfolio are China, India, T\u00fcrkiye and the United States of America. The innovative and technologically advanced products are developed in Remscheid and Neum\u00fcnster (Germany) as well as Suzhou and Wuxi (China).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As fiber consumption is projected to rise, most of the growth is expected to come from manmade fibers. The increase of natural fibers such as cotton and linen is limited due to natural boundaries. Manmade fibers will help to meet expanding demand for clothing, technical and home textiles. The strategic acquisition of Barmag will transform Rieter into a leading supplier for converting natural and manmade fibers into yarn. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The acquisition will further enhance Rieter\u2019s position in the important Asia-Pacific region<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The transaction is fully in-line with Rieter\u2019s strategy and follows previous acquisitions, where Rieter complemented its portfolio in short-staple fiber machinery and expanded its footprint in components and machinery for manmade fiber production. The combined platform allows to leverage the recovery of global filament and short staple fiber spinning markets and to reduce cyclicality due to diversification of end-markets. The acquisition will further enhance Rieter\u2019s position in the important Asia-Pacific region and provide access to Barmag\u2019s filament expertise, which will help to further scale Rieter\u2019s own capabilities and improve digitization solutions and product sustainability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thomas Oetterli, CEO of Rieter: \u201cWe are very proud to welcome Oerlikon Barmag, Oerlikon Neumag and Oerlikon Nonwoven to Rieter. We are convinced that this combination will form a market leader in the textile industry which will create value for our shareholders, customers and employees.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Georg Stausberg, CEO of Barmag: \u201cWith this solution, we will have the best new ownership possible, as we will benefit from each other as textile companies from market understanding, technology expertise and complementary offering for our global customer base.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The enterprise value of CHF 850 million represents a through-the-cycle EV\/EBITDA of 6.3x (excluding synergies). If certain financial criteria are achieved by 2028, an earn-out component will be paid to the seller. The acquisition is expected to enhance Rieter\u2019s financial performance given Barmag\u2019s structurally higher through-the-cycle profitability and margin resilience in market downturn.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The acquisition financing is secured by a bridge loan facility. Refinancing of the bridge facility will happen through a fully underwritten CHF 400 million rights issue with tradable subscription rights, a CHF 77 million non-pre-emptive private placement which is fully committed and subscribed by Rieter\u2019s two largest shareholders and a bank financing.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rieter\u2019s largest shareholder, Peter Spuhler (c. 33% shareholding) is supportive of the transaction and committed to participating in the rights-issue pro-rata by exercising its subscription rights as well as investing additional capital through the non-pre-emptive capital raise. After the capital increase, PCS Holding AG is expected to retain a shareholding of c. 33%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, Rieter\u2019s second-largest shareholder, Martin Haefner (c. 10%), also supports the transaction and has committed to participating pro-rata in the rights-issue by exercising its subscription rights and investing additional capital through the non-pre-emptive capital raise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rieter remains committed to strong balance sheet stability and expects to delever quickly from a pro forma combined leverage per end of 2024 of c. 3x post the CHF 477 million equity capital increase driven by cash generation of the combined entity. An extraordinary General Meeting (\u201cEGM\u201d) is expected to be convened in the third or fourth quarter of 2025 to obtain shareholder approval for the capital increase in connection with the rights issue and the private placement. The definite terms of the rights issue are expected to be determined and communicated on or around the date of the EGM. The acquisition of Barmag is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. The closing of the acquisition is targeted for Q4 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
