Mutlangen/Munich, 15.12.2021

Quantum Capital Partners ("Quantum") announces that Xandor Mürdter Automotive GmbH, a subsidiary of Quantum Opportunity Fund II GmbH & Co. KG, has acquired 100% of the shares in the Mürdter Group ("Mürdter" or "the company") from the Mürdter family. The transaction was managed by the Quantum team in Munich.

Based in Mutlangen, Germany, Mürdter is a leading automotive supplier of plastic injection-molded parts with complex geometries involving assembly, bonding, and welding processes. The company's product range includes both surface parts and structural/functional parts supplied to a long-standing and renowned OEM and tier-1 customer base. Additionally, the company operates its own toolmaking facility, where tools are designed and manufactured for internal injection molding as well as for external customers. Mürdter operates in the plastic injection molding and toolmaking sectors at four locations in Germany and the Czech Republic. The company currently employs approximately 585 people. Together with Xandor Automotive's Plastics Division, a company with production facilities in the United Kingdom (formerly known as Rosti Automotive and acquired by Quantum in January 2020), Xandor Mürdter will offer its customers international production capabilities with an annual turnover of over 200 million EUR. Norman Mürdter and Robert Mürdter have led the Mürdter Group operationally for almost 30 years, advancing the company. Due to the lack of a succession solution, they have decided to integrate the Mürdter Group into a larger automotive supplier. They will continue to manage Mürdter's day-to-day business under the leadership of Gunther Hiller, CEO of Xandor Connectors and Plastics Division.

Steffen Görig, CEO of Quantum Capital Partners: "The Mürdter family has built a leading automotive supplier known in the industry for its high-quality and technically sophisticated product portfolio of injection molding components and assemblies. Together with the current management team of Xandor Automotive and the Mürdter management, we look forward to further developing the business within Xandor Mürdter and realizing its full growth potential."
