Sweden – Poolia receives greenlight from registration office for Uniflex merger

12 October 2018

The Swedish Companies Registration Office (Bolagsverket) approved the merger between Swedish staffing firms Poolia and Uniflex.

The registration office is expected to register the merger on 31 October 2018. Uniflex will then be dissolved and all its assets and liabilities will be transferred to Poolia. As a result of the Swedish Companies Act's permit and future registration of the merger, Uniflex will be ‘derecognised’ from Nasdaq Stockholm. The last day for trading in Uniflex B shares at Nasdaq Stockholm is expected to be 26 October 2018 with the final delisting on 1 November 2018.

The companies first announced in June that they would agree to merge, thereby creating a Nordic staffing powerhouse. The boards from each firm unanimously decided on the merger and plan to have each share in Uniflex replaced with 1.7 new shares in Poolia.

The merger was then approved by Sweden’s Financial Supervisory Authority, Finansinspektionen in July.
