The transaction is expected to be wrapped up by October this year, subject to regulatory nod. JTC expects the deal to be “immediately earnings enhancing”.
The initial deal consideration is €16m, of which 69% will be paid in cash and the remaining through the issue of new JTC shares.
The earn-out, if payable, would depend on Van Doorn’s 2018 performance and paid in cash next year.
The deal forms part of JTC’s growth plans revealed at its IPO in March this year. JTC will finance the cash portion of the deal using its existing facilities and operating cash flows.
