Nexans has completed the acquisition of Reka Cables to consolidate its presence in the Nordic region, a market at the forefront of the global energy transition. This transaction aligns with Nexans' strategy to focus purely on electrification. By integrating Reka's local manufacturing footprint and premium brand, Nexans significantly strengthens its ability to serve the Nordic distribution grid and the booming onshore wind sector. The deal also reinforces the group's sustainability credentials, as Reka brings industry-leading carbon neutrality standards. Operationally, Reka Cables will be integrated into Nexans' "Distribution & Usage" business group, allowing for immediate commercial synergies across Scandinavia.

REKA CABLES, which reported an EBITDA margin of LOGIN in 2022, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of LOGIN, a level around LOGIN lower than the 10.5x average currently observed in the Industry & Manufacturing sector.
