Aspo’s subsidiary Leipurin completes the divestment of its
Russian operations
Aspo Group’s subsidiary Leipurin has completed the transaction
of selling its Russian subsidiaries to Mr. Timur Akhiyarov. The
transaction will not significantly impact the reported EBITA result
of Aspo Group.
Leipurin signed a binding preliminary agreement to sell its
Eastern operations to Mr. Timur Akhiyarov in January 2023. In
year-end 2023 all net assets, incl. translation differences of
Leipurin East were written down, generating a negative impact of
EUR 5.4 million to the reported EBITA of Aspo. Aspo has not
included Leipurin East in its consolidated financial statements
anymore in 2024. The completion of the transaction was prolonged
due to required authority approvals.
“This transaction finally completes Aspo’s exit from Russia. This
costly and time-consuming exit process has tied up significant
management resources. Now we are in a position where we can fully
focus on implementing our profitable growth strategy in western
markets”, says Rolf Jansson, CEO of Aspo Group.
