Akastor ASA (AKAST) has today received payment of USD 6.5 million following a settlement in respect of the right to earn-out payment under the share purchase agreement dated 13 July 2016 (the “SPA”) concerning the divestment of Managed Pressure Operations International Ltd (“MPO”). The SPA is formally with MHWirth AS (“MHWirth”) as seller of MPO, but the right to any earn-out payment was carved out from the merger involving MHWirth and SDS which was completed on 1 October 2021.
The net cash contribution to Akastor was USD 5.4 million after deducting for costs and back-to-back liabilities.
