Daily Company Scan — 5 Companies
Lautrup Properties ApS
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Lautrup Properties ApS offers a low-visibility Danish property platform via CVR filings, potentially acquirable at a discount to Baltic peers trading 5.6-15.1x EV/EBITDA. A strategic buyer gains Nordic real estate exposure with gross-profit reporting flexibility and cross-border consolidation potential. Key risk: opaque sector details and EBITDA conversion limit precise valuation versus listed assets like TSM1T.TL.
Tibberup Karosserifabrik ApS
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Tibberup Karosserifabrik provides a Danish manufacturing foothold for Baltic transport or auto groups seeking EU supply-chain control, at implied 7–9x EV/EBITDA in line with Tallink and Ekspress. An acquirer secures gross-profit vehicle-body capacity and cross-border synergies with minimal listed-premium. Margin risk is high given sector mismatch with 4.9–42.6% Baltic peer EBITDA ranges.
Elverhøj Ejendomme ApS
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Elverhøj Ejendomme ApS provides Baltic buyers a low-disclosure Danish property platform trading at an implied 7-9x EV/EBITDA, in line with Tallink and Ekspress multiples, for cross-border consolidation. Acquirer captures stable gross-profit cash flows and CVR transparency without listed-market premiums. Main risk is opaque asset mix and margin profile versus Baltic peers’ 5-43% EBITDA range.
Scan-Flex Stålreoler A/SDEEP DIVE
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Scan-Flex’s Danish steel-racking operations provide Baltic strategic buyers (Tallink, TKM, Grigeo) a bolt-on to capture Nordic warehouse demand at 7–9x EV/EBITDA, below TKM’s 15.1x and Tallinna Sadam’s 9.1x. Acquirers secure local manufacturing and gross-profit cash flows without listed-market premiums. Execution risk centers on thin Baltic margins (4.9–14.8%) when scaling cross-border.
EV Bolig II ApS
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: EV Bolig II ApS provides a private Danish housing asset at an undisclosed price, offering a potential entry point below Baltic peers at 5.6-9.1x EV/EBITDA (e.g., GRG1L, TSM1T). A strategic buyer could consolidate Nordic-Baltic residential exposure with operational leverage on gross-profit margins. Key risk: limited disclosure and sector mismatch hinder precise valuation against the comp set.
Deep Dive
Scan-Flex Stålreoler A/S
· Denmark · Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)

Company Overview

Scan-Flex Stålreoler A/S is a small Danish manufacturer and supplier of steel racking and warehouse storage systems. Operating on a gross-profit basis with revenue below €10 million, the company serves domestic logistics, industrial, and distribution clients. Its core activity is the design, production, and installation of modular steel shelving solutions that address Nordic warehouse capacity needs. Geographic focus remains Denmark, with limited export footprint.

Deal Context

The M&A angle is a strategic bolt-on for Baltic-listed industrial or logistics groups seeking Nordic manufacturing exposure. Named candidates—Tallink, TKM Grupp, and Grigeo—could integrate Scan-Flex to capture warehouse demand growth without building capacity from scratch. The transaction would likely be 100 % equity sale rather than growth equity or PE-led, driven by founder exit or succession. No broad auction is implied; bilateral discussions with Baltic strategics appear the natural route.

Valuation Context

Baltic peers trade at 5.6–15.1x EV/EBITDA, with the median around 7.7–8.5x. A private Danish company of this size warrants a 25–40 % discount for illiquidity, customer concentration, and scale, pointing to a realistic 5–7x EV/EBITDA entry multiple. On a revenue basis, 0.6–0.9x sales is plausible given typical steel-products gross margins and sub-€10 million turnover. This pricing sits comfortably below listed Baltic multiples while still offering sellers a clean exit.

Triage Verdict

REVIEW

  • Fit: Sector (warehouse infrastructure), geography (Denmark–Baltics corridor), and size align with bolt-on theses; margins appear thin but typical for the category.
  • Red flags: Limited public financial detail and potential single-founder dependency raise execution questions on cross-border scaling.
  • Next step: Request three-year gross-profit and customer-concentration data to test whether Baltic buyers can lift margins above 10 % post-acquisition.

Key Risk

Cross-border margin compression from Danish cost structures and Baltic acquirer overhead could erase the 7–9x entry multiple advantage within two years.

Bottom line: modest strategic value at a discounted multiple, but only worth pursuing once margin sustainability is verified.

TARGET · PRIVATE
A/S Norske Shell
Utvinning av naturgass · ~€2171.4M rev
Solid — pursue with focused integration plan. Largest lever is cost_operational consolidation of overlapping NCS gas assets and overhead (realisable at 70-80% within 24 months). Primary risk is regulatory concentration scrutiny on the Norwegian shelf plus modest revenue synergy realisation typical of horizontal energy deals.

AF GRUPPEN NORGE AS
Bygging av broer og tunneler · ~€869.7M rev
Solid — pursue with focused integration plan. Strongest lever is cost_operational consolidation of overlapping Norwegian civil-engineering operations; biggest risk is revenue cannibalisation and execution complexity in a mature domestic market. Overall fit supports a focused domestic tuck-in rather than transformative cross-border deal.

Installasjon av industrimaskiner og -utstyr · ~€784.4M rev
Solid — pursue with focused integration plan. Bravida gains credible industrial-installation scale and Norway density, with the largest lever being cost synergies from shared procurement and field operations. Key risk is limited revenue overlap between building and industrial segments, requiring disciplined integration to avoid overpaying for modest top-line uplift.
