- Fabasoft AG takes over the majority of the shares in the company by means of a share purchase and capital increase
- 4teamwork AG with its headquarters in Bern and locations in St. Gallen and Luzern is specialised in digital business processes in the public administration
Fabasoft AG today signed a purchase and participation agreement for the acquisition of a majority stake in 4teamwork AG, based in Bern. After full implementation of the contract, Fabasoft AG will hold 70% of the shares in the new Fabasoft 4teamwork AG.
The participation will take place in several steps. First, the indirect acquisition of existing shares of 21.7% from the previous majority shareholder is planned. At the closing, a capital increase is to take place, which will increase Fabasoft AG's share in 4teamwork AG to approximately 58.5%.
This is to be followed by a merger with Fabasoft Schweiz AG, which in turn will result in Fabasoft AG holding a 70% stake in the new Fabasoft 4teamwork AG.
The closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to occur in mid-October 2022. Work on the implementation of the Closing Conditions is already in progress.
The previous CEO of 4teamwork AG, Dr. Pascal Habegger, will retain a 30% stake in Fabasoft 4teamwork AG and will promote further expansion in his existing role.
