An update from HOCHDORF Holding AG ( (CH:HT5) ) is now available.
HT5 AG has signed a transaction agreement to merge with Lugano-based CENTIEL SA, a fast-growing global provider of mission-critical uninterruptible power supply systems whose technology is used to secure data centres, industrial facilities and other critical applications. The deal, structured as an absorption merger under Swiss law, values debt-free Centiel at CHF 125 million and HT5 at CHF 2.04 per share, and will be accompanied by an ordinary capital increase, a secondary placement from Centiel’s founders to create free float, and an additional cash capital increase of up to CHF 60 million to fund further expansion. Centiel, which operates in more than 60 countries and expects unaudited 2025 revenues of around CHF 46 million and an EBIT margin of 22%, would gain a Swiss listing and fresh growth capital, while HT5 advances its strategy of combining with an operating business and repositioning itself as a listed technology champion, with completion targeted for the first half of 2026, subject to standard conditions and shareholder approval.
