Waterkotte GmbH
Waterkotte GmbH is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Germany under HRB 9537 Bochum, and its current status with Handelsregister (Commercial Register) is active. Its registered address on file is Bochum, Germany. 5 shareholders are on record for Waterkotte GmbH, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Handelsregister (Commercial Register) and was last updated on 13 October 2026.

Shareholders
5
Five shareholders are currently on record for Waterkotte GmbH, held on the Gesellschafterliste (shareholder list), filed under §40 of the GmbHG.
The largest of these is NIBE Industrier AB (publ), holding 82% — a majority holding — followed by NIBE Industrier AB (publ) at 8.1%; the remaining 3 shareholders shown hold smaller stakes.
The register reports 6 shareholders in total, though only the top 5 by holding are shown in this view.
Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

Officers
5
Two of the 5 officer records shown for Waterkotte GmbH are current appointments, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Andreas Jung (appointed 2004-11-12) and Claus-Rainer Fischer (appointed 2008-02-26) both serve as Officer. The remaining 3 records shown (Klemens Waterkotte Jr, Kurt Tilly and 1 other) are former appointments that have since been resigned.
The register reports 8 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.
Management authority at Waterkotte GmbH sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.
The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.
Group Structure
Waterkotte GmbH sits 1 level below its ultimate parent, Nibe Industrier AB, registered in Sweden. 2 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 2 jurisdictions. The full chain up to Nibe Industrier AB is derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions; no link in it is independently corroborated by Waterkotte GmbH's own shareholder record. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.
Those 2 subsidiaries span Germany, Austria jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear.
