32. Acquisition of Dörries Scharmann Technologie GmbH<br />

On January 19, <strong>2011</strong> StarragHeckert Holding AG acquired 100 % of the shares of Dörries Scharmann<br />

Technologie GmbH based in Mönchengladbach, Germany, for a cash consideration of CHF 85.6 million.<br />

An additional CHF 3.6 million receivable due from the seller to Dörries Scharmann Technologie GmbH<br />

was also satisfied.<br />

During the period from the date of acquisition to 31 December <strong>2011</strong> Dörries Scharmann Technologie<br />

GmbH generated sales revenues of CHF 151.5 million and a net profit of CHF 2.6 million. If the company<br />

had already been consolidated as of 1 January <strong>2011</strong>, Starrag Group’s sales revenues would have<br />

been CHF 9.0 million higher and net profit CHF 0.4 million lower.<br />

Dörries Scharmann Technologie GmbH produces machining tools under the renowned brands Dörries,<br />

Droop+Rein, Ecospeed, Scharmann and Berthiez that are used for boring, turning, milling and grinding<br />

of mid-sized to large workpieces and it ranks among the industry’s technology leaders. This acquisition<br />

represents an ideal add-on to Starrag Group’s product portfolio. Thanks to the complementary product<br />

lines, Dörries Scharmann Technologie GmbH clearly strengthens Starrag Group’s position in its target<br />

markets of aerospace, energy, transport and industrial engineering.
