Düssel­dorf — Network Corpo­rate Finance has advi­sed the share­hol­ders and manage­ment of the LUTZ Group as debt advi­sor on the struc­tu­ring and imple­men­ta­tion of a complex new group financing.

As part of the realignment of the Group, in which one of the two main share­hol­ders has left and a complete relo­ca­tion of opera­ti­ons is being under­ta­ken, exten­sive finan­cing has been struc­tu­red. The flexi­ble and cost-opti­mi­zed concept consists of acqui­si­tion finan­cing, sale-and-lease-back finan­cing of the new plant, and a leasing solu­tion (off-balance) for the new machi­nery and equipment.

The LUTZ Group is Europe’s largest manu­fac­tu­rer of special tech­ni­cal blades for indus­try, medi­cal appli­ca­ti­ons and crafts. The company was foun­ded in 1922 and now employs over 300 people at its two sites in Solin­gen and Nysa (Poland). www.lutz-blades.com
