KPMG Law Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH (KPMG Law) and KPMG AG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft (KPMG) advised Diehl Defence on the acquisition of the Tauber Group.
KPMG Law provided legal support to Diehl Defence and KPMG provided tax support with cross-location teams on the acquisition of the Tauber Group.
The Diehl Defence subgroup, based in Überlingen on Lake Constance, bundles the business activities of the Diehl Group, a globally active German family-owned company based in Nuremberg, in the field of defense technology. The Tauber Group, also a family-run German company, specializes in services in the fields of explosive ordnance disposal as well as system and special civil engineering. With almost seven hundred employees, it recently achieved an annual turnover of around 100 million euros.
Diehl Defence already entered into a strategic partnership with the Tauber Group last year when it founded the joint venture TD Services GmbH together with the latter. KPMG Law also provided legal advice at that time. With the acquisition of the Tauber Group, Diehl Defence has now taken over the entire range of services of the Tauber Group, including geophysical detection, recovery, defusing and professional disposal of explosive ordnance as well as technically demanding civil engineering projects such as tunnel and pipeline construction, shoring systems and ecological water treatment.
