GA_P advises Andritz on the acquisition of the Salico Group

icon 30 of June, 2025

Gómez-Acebo & Pombo has advised the Austrian listed company Andritz AG on its acquisition of the Salico Group, a company specialized in the design and manufacture of finishing equipment for flat metal strips, with operations in Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States, and India

The agreement signed by Andritz, which has annual revenues of over €8 billion, strengthens its strategy to expand its global presence and enhance its technology portfolio in the downstream segment, which is key for industries such as steel and aluminum. The transaction is expected to close in the coming weeks.

The GA_P team was led by Mónica Weimann, partner in the Corporate/M&A team, together with Cristina Sánchez Weickgenannt and Guillermo Menéndez Herrero, associates. They were supported, among others, by Delia Castaños, Iratze Arrigain García, Paula García Cuevas, and Andrea González-Novo, associates from the Labour, Intellectual Property, Public Law, and Banking & Finance teams, respectively.

Irregularities in public sector staffing. Jurisdiction and/or substantive law
When a serious irregularity is found in administrative contracts owing to their employment character, jurisdiction lies with the employment branch of the court system. However, if the administrative route is not outside the scope of the law, jurisdiction lies with the judicial review branch of the court system.

Despite classifying the association as a commercial relationship and not an employment relationship, compensation amounts for termination of contract are allowed if they match those accepted by the insolvency practitioners, just as remuneration amounts are allowed if said practitioners had decided to accept remuneration in some months but not in others.

Notarial enforcement of pledges. Is Article 1872 of the Civil Code mandatory? In what sense?
The clause agreed upon must comply, for greater certainty, with the provisions of the new judicial enforcement procedure. It will be necessary to agree on an appraised value, which is not required in Article 1872 CC, because otherwise the award would be similar to a ‘forfeiture proviso’ (pactum commissorium), which the Civil Code neutralised with the drastic imposition of extinguishment of the debt in its entirety.

Jurisdiction of national courts of States party to the Agreement on a Unified Patent Court in respect of actions relating to classic European patents during the transitional period
During the transitional period of the Agreement on a Unified Patent Court, national courts retain jurisdiction to hear cases concerning classic European patents, without the need for the proprietor to have exercised the opt-out option, i.e. without the need to have excluded the jurisdiction of the Unified Patent Court over such patents. However, the Venice Court ruling discussed here considers that national courts may only be used if the opt-out has been exercised, contradicting the provisions of Article 83 of the Agreement.

Incompatibility between practising a healthcare profession and having a pecuniary interest in the manufacture or sale of medicinal products or medical devices
Royal Legislative Decree 1/2015, of 24 July, approving the recast version of the Medicinal Products and Medical Devices (Guarantees and Rational Use) Act, prohibits healthcare professionals with prescribing powers from having a direct pecuniary interest in activities related to medicines. This prohibition does not extend to indirect interests, as distinguished in Article 4 of said legislative decree. Judgment no. 483/2025 of the High Court of Justice of the Basque Country concludes that mere membership of a group of companies does not entail incompatibility if each entity retains real autonomy.

Excessive extension of the Bolar clause in the 'pharmaceutical legislative package'
The Bolar clause allows studies and trials necessary to obtain marketing authorisations for medicinal products to be carried out without infringing patents. Its scope has grown during the passage of the pharmaceutical legislative package, incorporating more actors and more activities, to include participation in public tenders before the patent expires. This extension raises questions about compatibility with the TRIPS Agreement, which only allows limited exceptions to patent rights. Participation in tenders could be considered an offer to sell, thus violating the limits set by that agreement.
