BAHR – commercial advice from dedicated specialists

Uncertain times generate serious challenges. But they also present opportunities. The instinctive grasp of the market that follows from long experience can make the difference between success and failure.

BAHR’s private equity group has served the Nordic private equity industry since its inception. This has allowed us to build a deep understanding of the sector that, combined with our unparalleled expertise, has seen us assist numerous leading players in their most complex work, such as:

• Acting for US private equity firm, Abry Partners, on its offer for the shares in mobile communications provider, LINK Mobility, valuing LINK at c.NOK 3.4 billion.
• Advising on the sale of Spacemaker, an AI based prop-tech company with VC backers such as Atomico and Northzone, to US listed Autodesk, valuing the company at USD 240 million.
• Advising Norvestor on the sale of Norwegian mobile telecoms company Phonero to Telia for NOK 2.3 billion.

Consistently ranked top in Norway for private equity by Mergermarket, Kantar SIFO Prospera and other market observers,  our dedicated team has the knowledge and understanding of the industry to go one step further. We are the port of call for our clients across their funds’ investment cycle – from fund formations, buyouts, take-privates, co-investments and add-on acquisitions to successful exits. But we also appreciate the ways in which funds evolve and the complex relations between the managers, underlying investors and other key stakeholders, allowing us to identify challenges before they arise and also address global tax and regulatory issues that might affect them. And our integrated team structure means that advice is on hand when you need it most.
