Catella sells majority stake in French valuation unit to Newmark

24 November 2025

Catella Group has sold its 66.1% stake in Catella Valuation Advisory SAS to Newmark Group Inc. The transaction is expected to contribute nearly SEK 50 million to Catella’s EBIT in the fourth quarter of 2025.

The divestment forms part of Catella’s strategy to streamline its service offering and focus more closely on Corporate Finance operations, while maintaining the subsidiary’s established local expertise in France. According to the company, the sale will allow Corporate Finance to strengthen its core advisory and transaction services.

“It is of course with mixed feelings we take this strategic step to divest Catella Valuation Advisory SAS, which has played an important role in establishing Catella’s local presence in France. At the same time, this move allows us to sharpen our transaction and advisory capabilities. Catella’s strong brand in France provides a solid foundation for accelerating our growth within property advisory services. I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to the Valuation team and wish them every success in their future endeavours,” said Daniel Gorosch, Head of Corporate Finance Europe.

France remains an important market for Catella, and Catella Valuation Advisory SAS has contributed significantly to building the Group’s position there. Following the divestment, Catella Corporate Finance in France will consist of Catella Property Consultants and Catella Residential Partners, with a continued focus on transaction and property advisory services.

The Corporate Finance business area plans to continue recruiting and developing key competencies to support client needs, strengthen profitability, and advance its pan-European growth strategy.
