Omda AS (Euronext Growth Oslo: OMDA) today
announced the acquisition of Saab's Public Safety Solutions.
With this acquisition, Omda's footprint within the UK public sector is
expanding significantly. At the same time, this substantially
strengthens Omda's offering across the entire emergency care value chain,
creating a uniquely comprehensive platform at an international scale.
"The right step for Saab, one giant leap for Omda," said Sverre Flatby,
CEO of Omda.
Based in Hull, United Kingdom, and Gothenburg, Sweden, Saab Public
Safety Solutions is renowned for its high-quality, accurate products
that perform reliably in the most challenging conditions.
"As we strategically prioritise addressing the evolving needs of our
defence customers, we anticipate that Public Safety Solutions will find
even greater opportunities for growth and success within Omda. This
decision is in line with our strategic objectives and aims to provide
Public Safety Solutions with the optimal conditions to advance," says
Carl-Johan Bergholm, head of Saab's business area Surveillance.
Omda and Saab have collaborated successfully for several years and have
also completed transactions together in the past.
"Based on our long-term relationship, we are confident that Omda is
well positioned to ensure a strong and positive outcome for both
employees and customers," Flatby says.
"Current and new customers will gain access to a unique, integrated
software suite that supports the entire value chain across healthcare,
police, and fire services," Flatby concludes.
Through the transaction, Omda will assume around 75 employees and a
revenue base of around SEK 80 million, in addition to a significant
expected order intake. The acquisition is structured as
an asset transaction, with Omda paying SEK 15 million upfront,
in addition to an earn-out component limited to 45 MSEK linked to the
realisation of profitable order intake. Completion of the divestment is
subject to certain conditions typical for transactions of this type.
Closing is expected to take place in Q4 2026.
