Lernia has approximately 5,300 employees and had revenues of 3.5 billion kronor in 2023.
A mandate from the Riksdag to sell Lernia, the company formed by the old Amu group in the early 1990s, has existed previously.
"The company lacks a social mission decided by the Riksdag and operates on a well-functioning market. Therefore, there is no reason for the state to remain as owner," says Finance Minister Elisabeth Svantesson (The Moderate Party) in a press release.
