Boreal
Boreal is one of the largest players in the Norwegian public transport market.
The company operates contracts granted by local Norwegian Public Transport Authorities in 4 segments: bus, car ferry, fast ferry and light rail. The group enjoys strong infrastructure characteristics operating attractive, index-linked, mid to long-term contracts with public authorities across Norway.
Cube acquired Boreal in 2011, in partnership with its management team, and supported the company’s growth through new contract wins, strategic add-on acquisitions and the strengthening of the existing concession contract portfolio. The result was an increase in Boreal’s revenues by nearly 50% while its EBITDA grew by approximately 285% between 2010 and 2017 under Cube’s ownership.
Cube successfully sold Boreal group to Everbright Overseas Infrastructure Investment Fund in 2018.
