The highly anticipated acquisition of STANLEY Security and Healthcare

contribution is expected to be generated through higher-margin technology and
solutions sales
• The acquisition supports Securitas’ strategy, adds resilience and creates a
significant platform for innovation as the company has the ambition to drive and

On December 8, 2021, Securitas announced it had signed an agreement to acquire
the Electronic Security Solutions business from Stanley Black & Decker Inc.
(“STANLEY Security”). Following customary regulatory approvals, the acquisition
is now complete, and the joint potential of the two businesses is unleashed.

Securitas holds a strong position within the security services market today and
has continuously built a robust platform within the technology and solutions
area to meet the increasing demand for smarter and innovative technology-based
security solutions. Strategic acquisitions in recent years, combined with
efficient business transformation programs and the acquisition of STANLEY
Security, enable Securitas’ ambition to emerge as an exceptional player in the
security industry.

The core of Securitas’ value proposition and growth strategy is a strong belief
that the future of security is built on global presence, connected technology
and intelligent use of data. By offering and combining these three assets with a
holistic approach across the whole security services value chain, Securitas can
position itself as an outstanding partner for its clients across the globe.

“We see an increasing client demand to complement our guarding and consulting
offering with technology-based solutions. As global challenges evolve rapidly,
safety and security solutions are essential to helping organizations protect
their people, safeguard their assets and optimize their operations. Together
with STANLEY Security and Healthcare, we are able to drive and redefine the
future of the security industry by providing a broad portfolio of integrated
tech-enabled solutions that help our clients focus on managing their core
business,” says Magnus Ahlqvist, President and CEO.

Headquartered in Indianapolis in the U.S., STANLEY Security has an inspiring
30-year history of protecting its clients worldwide through a portfolio of
tech-enabled security services. The company is trusted by customers across the
globe for its innovative SaaS technology, seamless installation and integration,
reliable maintenance, 24/7 monitoring and insightful analytics. Today, STANLEY
Security is a highly recognized provider of tech-enabled security services
worldwide, with approximately 8 000 employees operating through approximately
200 locations and 16 monitoring centers in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, United
Kingdom, France, Sweden, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Finland, Norway and
Ireland.

“Our combined offerings and global footprint enable us to solidify our expertise
in technology and unlock opportunities for innovative solutions. Together, we
will provide a comprehensive portfolio, enabling us to develop strong client
relationships and deliver more value to clients through an even higher degree of
innovation and technology, while strengthening our core capabilities,
competencies and geographical reach,” says Tony Byerly, Global President
Securitas Technology (formerly Securitas Electronic Security).

Securitas is on the path to achieving its ambition of becoming a stronger
business partner that provides holistic and integrated solutions with
outstanding quality and value to its clients. To achieve this, technology is key
and enables smarter security services and innovative solutions, from on-site
services to advanced monitoring, comprehensive risk prediction and advisory
services. Joining forces with STANLEY Security enables Securitas to accelerate
growth and build a strong innovation pipeline geared toward the advanced
security needs of the future. With over 500 000 existing, as well as new
clients, we anticipate significant commercial opportunities.

“Bringing together our two great companies is an industry-defining event, and
going forward approximately 50% of our profit contribution is expected to be
generated through higher-margin technology and solutions sales. Combining our
talent and expertise sets us up for stronger growth and gives us great
confidence for the future. Our shared values and high sustainability ambitions
enable us to utilize our potential to provide tech-enabled security solutions
that create long-term value for our clients, our shareholders and the society at
large,” concludes Magnus Ahlqvist.
