Adapt Equity is a family-owned investment company that invests for the long term in companies that reduce climate-related risks for people and society, with a focus on areas such as infrastructure, logistics, and water. Klimator’s road weather data and sensor technology, which contribute to safer roads and more efficient winter road maintenance as weather becomes more extreme, are well aligned with that focus.
“Klimator is clearly connected to our thesis on adaptation. We believe in the company for the long term and see our role as an engaged owner,” says Max Karlsson at Adapt Equity.
“I strongly believe in Klimator’s position and the opportunities ahead, and I view the opportunity to increase my ownership in the company positively,” says Anders Oscarsson, Board member of Klimator. Following the acquisition, Anders Oscarsson holds 674,779 shares, corresponding to approximately 1.9 percent of the capital and votes.
Jörgen Bogren and Torbjörn Gustavsson remain two of the Company’s largest shareholders, with 3,960,000 and 3,800,000 shares respectively, corresponding to approximately 11.3 and 10.8 percent of the capital and votes.
“Bringing in a long-term owner with a clear focus on climate adaptation is valuable for Klimator, and we are positive about contributing to making this possible. We remain major shareholders and are just as committed to the Company’s development,” says Jörgen Bogren and Torbjörn Gustavsson.
