Ilkkas associerede selskab sælger sit datterselskab til Keskisuomalainen

By Roni PeuranheimoAnalyst
Ilkka

Summary

  • Arena Partners Oy, et associeret selskab af Ilkka, sælger Arena Interactive Oy til Keskisuomalainen Oyj, hvilket styrker Ilkkas Q1-resultat med cirka 1 MEUR.
  • Salget har ingen indvirkning på Ilkkas justerede EBIT, men bidrager med en betydelig engangspost i forhold til det estimerede resultat før skat på 5,4 MEUR for 2026.
  • Ilkka har fokuseret på at blive et marketing- og teknologiselskab, og salget af Arena Interactive er en del af en strukturel forenkling.
  • Handlen anses for at have lille betydning for Ilkkas overordnede investeringscase, men præciserer strukturen for det associerede selskab Arena Partners.

Ilkka meddelt tirsdag, at dets associerede selskab Arena Partners Oy sælger hele aktiekapitalen i Arena Interactive Oy til Keskisuomalainen Oyj. Vi anser nyheden for at være af mindre betydning for Ilkka. Den cirka 2,0 MEUR store salgsgevinst, som Arena Partners opnår fra handlen, vil styrke Ilkkas Q1-resultat via associerede selskaber med cirka 1 MEUR (ingen indvirkning på det justerede EBIT fra egen drift).

Arena Partners er et udviklingsselskab ejet af Ilkka (45,16 %), Keskisuomalainen (45,20 %) og Hilla Group (9,64 %). Efter salget af Arena Interactive Oy vil selskabet fortsat eje Adfore Technologies Oy, som tilbyder lokations- og situationsbaserede samt realtidsannonceringsløsninger.

Ilkka har i de seneste år skærpet sin profil som marketing- og teknologiselskab ved at frasælge traditionelle medie- og printforretninger. I denne sammenhæng er rollen for associerede selskaber som Arena Partners blevet mindre i koncernmålestok, og de har en meget lille vægt i vores sum-of-the-parts-beregning. Salget af Arena Interactive til en af Arena Partners' hovedejere forenkler til en vis grad strukturen i det associerede selskab og er en fortsættelse af Ilkkas strukturforenkling. Samlet set er handlens betydning for Ilkkas investeringscase lille, men i forhold til vores estimerede resultat før skat på 5,4 MEUR for 2026 er en salgsgevinst på cirka 1 MEUR dog en betydelig engangspost på rapporteret niveau. Vi vil inkludere handlen i vores estimater før Q1-regnskabsmeddelelsen.
