Vector announces sale of HRV

Friday 1st August 2025

Text too small?

Vector (NZX: VCT ) announces it has agreed to sell its HRV business to a consortium of current franchisees and management.

 

The sale, which was completed today, followed a competitive process with the sale price of $2.5 million which is below our materiality threshold.

 

We acquired the business, which provides ventilation, heat pumps/air conditioners, water filtration and home electric vehicle charging, in 2017. We wrote off the goodwill associated with this investment in 2019. HRV has struggled to achieve its performance targets and needs a significant turnaround. We believe this is a positive outcome for HRV and Vector as we focus on our core business.

 

We would like to thank HRV staff and management for their commitment and hard work for HRV customers. We wish them and the new owners all the best for the future as they take over a much-loved Kiwi brand.
