The business had an industrial focus from the outset through its origins in the steel wholesaler Söderberg & Haak which was found- ed in 1866. In the subsequent century operations were developed and operating subsidiaries were added, primarily within trading and engineering, as well as a portfolio of listed shares. The mixed investment company Ratos was listed in 1954.

    Private Equity in Sweden

    PRIVATE EQUITY IN SWEDEN An analysis of the private equity industry in Sweden and two case studies on individual companies’ competitive strategy JOHAN MATTISSON MASTER THESIS LUND UNIVERSITY, 2017 Abstract Private equity is a growing global phenomena and private equity companies have become a major force in many of Sweden’s industries. These companies own portfolio companies which together employs around 190 000 people and have an annual revenue of over 318 billion SEK. The purpose of this thesis was to describe and analyze the Swedish private equity industry and individual companies’ competitive strategy to increase value of portfolio companies and to attract capital. The methodical approach of this thesis was qualitative and abductive. Only public data was used bar the two interviews that was conducted with the case companies. The theoretical framework for the industry analysis was Porters five forces. The case companies were analyzed on the corporate, business and operational levels of strategy. A resource based view was used to further analyze the case companies’ strategic capabilities. The main findings from the industry analysis was that the vast majority of investors in Swedish private equity funds are made by professional institutions and a large amount of the investments were of international origin. The large pool of investors makes it easier for Swedish private equity companies to attract capital. The number of new private equity funds have been declining since 2007 but at the same time the average fund size has grown. There are many differentiating factors between private equity companies. This differentiation is beneficial for the private equity companies as they become less commoditized from the viewpoint of an investor.

Board The Nomination Committee proposes re-election of the Directors Lars Westerberg, Bengt Andersson, Peggy Bruzelius, Börje Ekholm, Tom Johnstone, Anders Moberg, Gun Nilsson, Peder Ramel and Robert F. Connolly. The reason for not proposing new Board Members to be elected is that the Nomination Committee considers that the nine Board Members proposed by the Nomination Committee are very well suited for carrying out Husqvarna’s Board work over their coming term of office. The Nomination Committee proposes that Lars Westerberg is appointed chairman of the Board. Lars Westerberg Born 1948. M. Sc. Eng., MBA. Elected 2006. Member of the Remuneration Committee.

  • The Operating Impact of Management Ownership Evidence from Private Equity Buyouts in Sweden

    The Operating Impact of Management Ownership Evidence from Private Equity Buyouts in Sweden

    Stockholm School of Economics Department of Finance MSc thesis – Spring 2013 Supervisor: Assistant Professor Michael Halling The Operating Impact of Management Ownership Evidence from Private Equity Buyouts in Sweden Abstract Using a novel dataset comprising 161 private equity buyouts in Sweden between 2002 and 2008, this paper investigates the impact of management participation on operating performance in buyouts. The authors compare performance in private equity sponsored management buyouts (MBOs) with other buyouts and also investigate the effect of management ownership in buyout companies. The analysis is carried out using regression analysis over two event windows, the three years following the buyout year and the period from entry to exit. The authors find that a higher management equity stake has a positive effect on profitability in buyout companies, but has a negative impact on growth. Additionally, the study finds that MBOs tend to outperform other buyouts over the full holding period. Looking at employee growth, larger management ownership in buyout companies is found to have a significant positive effect on employment. Keywords: Private equity, management buyout, MBO, management incentives, operating performance Mikael Svanberg Christopher Wanzelius [email protected] [email protected] Acknowledgements We would like to thank our tutor, Assistant Professor Michael Halling, for valuable support and guidance during the process of writing this paper.
