Re-structuring in a group operating in the creative sector

Oehlandt & Co advised a leading Finnish group active in the creative sector in a restructuring, in which the minority holdings in the group’s subsidiaries were converted to ownership in the parent company.

At the same time as the re-structuring, the group’s many brands were harmonized into one and its different knowledge areas were formed into new business units. The transaction was carried out through a share exchange based on valuations of the subsidiaries and the group.

The re-structuring and brand reform created a structure that integrates the interests of the minority owners and the group for the benefit of the group’s growth and future.

The transaction was carried out during 2018.
