Caissargues, June 5, 2025

Bastide Groupe announced today the disposal of its Belgian subsidiaries, Dorge Medic, which specializes in the sale and rental of medical equipment and products for homecare and orthopedics, and Dyna-Médical, specialist in the manufacture, fitting and sale of custom-made medical devices including bandages, orthotics, abdominal belts, compression stockings and orthopedic footwear.

In 2023-2024, Dorge Medic and Dyna-Médical, respectively acquired in 2013 and 2014, generated combined revenue of €9.6 million.

Both subsidiaries have been sold to Aqtor!, a Belgium-based specialist in technical orthopedics and subsidiary of Groupe Eqwal, international leader in the disability support sector.

The transaction, settled in cash, will have an accretive impact on margins and will contribute to reducing Bastide Groupe's net debt. It is part of the Group's strategy of focusing its efforts on developing its value-added and synergistic businesses with high growth potential.

Following this disposal, Bastide remains present in Belgium in the buoyant respiratory care market.

The Group is continuing to examine the possibility of selling assets that no longer align with its strategy or with a view to externalizing its value creation.
