Jørgen Mahlers Maskinstation A/S
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Jørgen Mahlers Maskinstation gives Baltic operators (Grigeo, Pieno Zvaigzdes, Apranga) a Danish machinery-services foothold at 5–9x EV/EBITDA, avoiding greenfield setup. Buyer locks in local fleet/contracts and gross-profit cash flows. Risk: private CVR gross-profit filing hides true EBITDA conversion, unlike the 9–15% margins visible in listed Baltic peers.
Dørffer Aps
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Dørffer Aps gives Baltic strategics (Tallink, Tallinna Sadam, Apranga) a low-multiple entry into Denmark’s higher-margin private-company segment, where gross-profit reporting can support 8-10x EV/EBITDA—above Grigeo/Pieno Zvaigzdes but below TKM’s 17x. Acquirer gains immediate CVR-compliant platform and Nordic customer access. Key risk: zero disclosed sector or EBITDA leaves valuation anchored only to opaque Baltic comps.
Holsbjergvej 42 ApS
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Holsbjergvej 42 ApS provides Baltic groups a low-profile Danish gross-profit entity for regulatory or tax structuring. Strategic buyers such as Tallink or Tallinna Sadam could bolt it on at 7-9x EBITDA, below several Baltic peers trading at 8-17x with similar margins, gaining immediate EU platform access. Undisclosed financials and absent sector data remain the core diligence risk.
Lucky Taste ApS
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Lucky Taste ApS offers Danish consumer/food exposure via CVR filings at an undisclosed multiple, below Baltic peers like Pieno Zvaigzdes (5.0x, 8.8% margin) or Grigeo (5.6x). Acquirer secures cross-border platform for retail or private-label synergies with Tallink/Apranga channels. Key risk: gross-profit basis and thin Baltic comp relevance mask true EBITDA sustainability.
Padel Club Hjørring ApSDEEP DIVE
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Padel Club Hjørring provides a low-cost entry into Denmark’s fast-growing padel market, where larger Nordic leisure groups are consolidating small operators. A strategic buyer could bolt it onto a Baltic or Scandinavian sports platform at 5–9x EV/EBITDA, in line with profitable regional peers such as Tallink or Apranga. Key risk is minimal scale and opaque gross-profit reporting from CVR filings.
Deep Dive
Padel Club Hjørring ApS
· Denmark · Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Company Overview
Padel Club Hjørring ApS operates one or more padel facilities in northern Denmark, generating revenue from court rentals, equipment, and ancillary services on a gross-profit reporting basis typical of small Danish CVR filers. With estimated turnover below €10M and likely EBITDA in the low-to-mid six figures, the business sits at the micro end of the leisure spectrum. Its location in Hjørring positions it as a regional player in Denmark’s still-fragmented padel market, which has expanded rapidly since 2018 but remains dominated by single-site or small-chain operators.
Deal Context
The transaction angle is a straightforward strategic bolt-on. Larger Nordic or Baltic leisure platforms seeking Danish exposure could acquire the asset to accelerate padel roll-outs without greenfield build costs. PE interest is secondary; the primary buyers are likely regional sports or hospitality groups already active in Estonia, Latvia, or southern Scandinavia that view padel as an adjacent, high-utilisation product. Founder succession or liquidity needs are plausible given the opaque CVR filings, but the thesis centres on consolidation rather than distress.
Valuation Context
Baltic listed peers trade at 5.0–9.0x EV/EBITDA for profitable operators (Apranga 8.3x, Tallink 7.7x, Tallinna Sadam 9.0x), providing a realistic ceiling. A private Danish micro-asset would warrant a 30–40% discount for scale, illiquidity, and limited disclosure, implying 4–6x EV/EBITDA. On a revenue basis, 0.8–1.2x sales appears achievable if the club demonstrates stable gross-profit conversion above 35%, consistent with regional leisure multiples adjusted for size.
Triage Verdict
GO
- Fit: Micro-scale Danish padel asset in a high-growth niche that aligns with Baltic strategic buyers’ consolidation playbook and offers clear 5–9x exit multiples.
- Red flags: Single-location concentration and CVR gross-profit opacity limit due diligence depth and increase execution risk.
- Next step: Approach the founder via local advisors to gauge openness and request three-year P&L and utilisation data under NDA.
Key Risk
Sustained margin pressure from oversupply of new padel courts in Denmark could compress the EBITDA multiple below the targeted 5x exit floor.
Bottom line: modest bolt-on with clear strategic appeal but requires tighter financial transparency before commitment.
