Carnegie acted as exclusive financial adviser to Topdanmark in the acquisition of Oona Health, owned by AnaCap Financial Partners and several minority investors, for a purchase price of DKK 2.25bn.
Oona Health is a specialised Danish health insurance company and is the largest provider (#1) of healthcare insurance in Denmark. Through its brand Dansk Sundhedssikring, the company provides health insurance to 530,000 individuals, primarily through its 15,000 commercial customers.
Topdanmark is a focused non-life insurance company aiming to create profitable growth in its core business. Health solutions are core products on the non-life insurance market, and the acquisition of Oona Health is an important investment in delivering the best products and services to Topdanmark’s customers. At the same time, Topdanmark secures a strong position in a fast-growing market with high customer loyalty.
Oona Health will continue as a separate legal entity post completion of the acquisition with senior management members and other key employees as minority shareholders (2-3% of Oona Health).
This marks the second Topdanmark M&A transaction with Carnegie as adviser within the last twelve months.
