FairCap acquires HEUKING, manufacturer of industrial springs

Stuttgart/ Beuren/ Munich — The invest­ment company Fair­Cap GmbH has acqui­red Stumpp & Schüle GmbH from Lesjö­fors AB. The Swedish company Lesjö­fors AB, a subsi­diary of Beijer Alma AB, specia­li­zes in the produc­tion of tech­ni­cal springs, stam­ped and bent parts. The Group compri­ses around 40 manu­fac­tu­ring and sales compa­nies world­wide. Heuking advi­sed Fair­Cap on this transaction.

Stumpp + Schüle GmbH is a German manu­fac­tu­rer of wire springs, pres­sed and bent parts, which are used not only in the auto­mo­tive indus­try, but also in the elec­tro­nics, glass and cera­mics sectors. The company’s head­quar­ters are loca­ted in Beuren (Baden-Würt­­te­m­­berg).

Fair­Cap GmbH is an entre­pre­neu­rial invest­ment company that acqui­res medium-sized compa­nies in special situa­tions (e.g. carve-out, succes­sion) and trans­forms them holi­sti­cally into sustainable, healthy orga­niza­ti­ons. In contrast to typi­cal private equity funds, Fair­Cap is a long-term invest­ment holding company, which is ther­e­fore not subject to a fund term and can hold invest­ments for the long term. Sustaina­bi­lity is a core element of FairCap’s invest­ment philosophy.

Follo­wing the acqui­si­tion of S & P Federn­werk GmbH & Co KG in 2021, the acqui­si­tion of Stumpp & Schüle GmbH repres­ents FairCap’s second take­over of a company in the spring and stam­ping and bending tech­no­logy sector.

Fair­Cap works regu­larly with HEUKING and Bene­dikt Raisch.
