"The acquisition of Siber marks another milestone in the targeted expansion
of our regional residential ventilation business. The complementary nature
of customers and products, together with regional strength and a strong
capacity for innovation, make Zehnder and Siber a perfectly complementary
combination," said Matthias Huenerwadel, CEO of Zehnder Group. "We warmly
welcome the 120 new colleagues to Zehnder Group and look forward to
realizing the joint growth potential."

For the 2024 financial year, Siber expects sales of around EUR 37 million,
with an EBIT margin on a par with Zehnder Group's ventilation segment.
Siber's focus is on complete ventilation systems for new buildings. The
company has broad market access in Spain and Portugal.
