Why the register-only number matters

A Swiss acquisition becomes public twice: once when someone writes about it, and once when the commercial register publishes the change of control. The second always happens; the first often does not. 3 of June’s 23 transactions never made the press — they are in this list because ValIndex reads the register itself, every publication, every week.

Where the deals were

Canton is on record for 19 of 23 transactions.

    AK Group AG (Apfelkiste.ch and MAREIN)

    acquired by Mobilezone Holding AG (SIX: MOZN)

    Closing completed 1 June: mobilezone paid CHF 180M cash (EV) for AK Group — Apfelkiste.ch (60,000-SKU phone-accessory/lifestyle e-tailer, founded 2011) plus retail-branding arm MAREIN. 2025 revenue over CHF 100M, EBITDA ~CHF 20M, ~100 staff — 1.8x revenue / 9x EBITDA. Founder Pierre Droigk rolls into a 5.18% mobilezone stake, becoming its largest individual shareholder, with a 2027 board seat proposed. PE seller Invision exits. Group 2026 EBITDA guidance lifted to CHF 50-57M.

    LEYAT

    acquired by Flisch Group

    FELCO owner Flisch Group (Flisch Holding SA, Les Geneveys-sur-Coffrane NE) acquired LEYAT, Switzerland's oldest secateur maker — founded 1917 in Valais, now headquartered in Bevaix NE with ~20 employees. Announced 1 June; price undisclosed. Pure brand-and-craft consolidation in Swiss garden tools: Flisch plans to internationalize LEYAT, until now sold almost exclusively in Switzerland. Niche Swiss manufacturing heritage keeps getting absorbed by family-held strategics, not funds.

  3. 2026-06-02SGPress-reported

    Grob Kies AG

    acquired by KIBAG

    Textbook succession: the Grob family sells its ~160-year-old Toggenburg gravel/concrete firm (3 gravel pits, 4 concrete plants, 50 staff, all retained) with no family successor. Split sale — building materials, transport and recycling go to KIBAG per July 2026; the construction unit goes to local E. Weber AG per August. KIBAG (family-owned, Zurich, founded 1926, 2,000+ employees, 14 gravel works and 25 concrete plants) keeps consolidating aggregates — strategics move fast on pit assets where PE rarely competes.

    Sustainable Real Estate AG

    acquired by Patrimonium Holding AG

    Patrimonium Holding AG (Baar) takes over Sustainable Real Estate AG, Zurich (MDs Klaus Kämpf and Marco Scheurer) effective 1 July 2026. SRE manages the SIX-listed SRES fund — CHF 475M across 30 sustainable Swiss residential properties; Patrimonium AM (CHF 5B AUM, CHF 3.7B+ Swiss real estate) becomes fund manager 1 January 2027 pending FINMA, and inherits advisory ties to Quadoro's ~EUR 785M German funds. Sub-scale FINMA asset managers are sellers — consolidation continues.

    Wecan Group

    Yfood

    acquired by Nestlé S.A.

    Nestlé announced 3 June it buys out the remaining ~51% of Munich meal-replacement brand Yfood from co-founder-CEOs Benjamin Kremer and Noël Bollmann (transfer effective 3 July 2026), having held 49% since 2023. Bloomberg pegs the implied valuation at ~€450M on 2025 sales of ~€150M with double-digit growth. Both founders exit; Nestlé's Jolanda Schwirtz takes over. First acquisition under new CEO Philipp Navratil — staged minority-to-control exits remain the corporate playbook PE must price against.

    additiv AG

    acquired by Temenos AG

    Deal of the Week: SIX-listed Temenos buys the AI-orchestration wealthtech it needs for the mass-affluent market. Founder Michael Stemmle stays; additiv runs standalone. See the full analysis above.

    Compet Medical AG

    acquired by Healthcare Holding Schweiz

    Healthcare Holding Schweiz added Compet Medical to its medtech portfolio — a continuing Swiss medical-device roll-up. The buyer is assembling a portfolio of niche Swiss device makers; each tuck-in widens distribution and regulatory scale that independents struggle to fund alone.

    Zigmo Engineering

    acquired by Implenia AG

    Switzerland's largest construction group Implenia acquired engineering-and-planning firm Zigmo, deepening the design capability it increasingly bundles with build. Construction majors are moving upstream into engineering to capture margin and lock in project pipelines.

    Japan's LOTTE made its healthcare CVC's ninth investment — and its FIRST in European biotech — leading the pre-seed of Basel ADC startup ClearideBio (founded Dec 2025, next-gen antibody-drug conjugates for solid tumors).

    Xella International

    Outbound. Zug-headquartered building-materials group Holcim agreed to acquire Xella, the German aircrete and calcium-silicate maker, in a deal reported at roughly CHF 1.7 billion. The week's largest Swiss-linked transaction, and a Swiss buyer expanding abroad rather than a Swiss target changing hands. We surface it as acquirer intelligence.

    Bad Rheinfelden AG, the operating company behind the Aargau thermal-spa resort, absorbed its own parent, Parkresort Rheinfelden Holding AG (roughly CHF 11.5M net assets), filed 19 June, dated 15 June. A structural simplification that folds the holding into the operating business.

How this list was built

Every week ValIndex reviews all Swiss commercial-register publications (SOGC/SHAB) and the Swiss business press, and records transactions involving an operating Swiss company. This page is the June 2026 slice of that record. Transactions are deduplicated on the target–acquirer pair and dated to the publication or announcement, not to signing. Coverage of the register is complete for this month; press coverage is necessarily selective, which is the point of the register-only count.
