Munich, June 5, 2026 – Mutares SE & Co. KGaA (ISIN:
DE000A2NB650) has received an irrevocable offer from Reed Capital to sell Walor Precision Turning, a part of Walor Group. Closing of the transaction is expected in the summer of 2026, subject
to receiving the opinion of the employee representatives and other customary closing conditions.
Walor Precision Turning comprises three production sites located in Legé (France), Sfântu Gheorghe (Romania) and Irapuato (Mexico). The business is a leading supplier of high-precision turned metal components for automotive passive safety systems, in particular for seatbelt pretensioners and airbag inflators, with a successful selected diversification in high growth markets such as semi-active suspensions and datacenter solutions. In 2025 the business expects generated revenues of approximately EUR 55 million and employed around 420 people across the three sites.
During its ownership, Mutares supported the operational performance improvements of the precision turning activities from the Walor Group, while ensuring its commercial success and strengthened the business’ international footprint across Europe and North America. The exit reflects Mutares’ disciplined approach to value creation through operational repositioning and targeted carve-outs.
Johannes Laumann, CIO of Mutares, comments: “The sale of Walor Precision Turning marks another successful step in the execution of our strategy to actively manage our automotive portfolio and gradually reduce its weighting within our overall portfolio. Following the comprehensive financial and operational restructuring of the Walor Group, we believe Reed Capital is well positioned to further strengthen the company’s strong market position in automotive passive safety components and its new strategic product lines. The transaction underscores our ability to unlock value from complex industrial situations.”
