INWIT Shareholders Explore Takeover Amid Contractual Dispute

INWIT's leading shareholders, Ardian and Oak Holdings 1, are considering a private acquisition of the company through a buyout of minority investors. This move follows contractual disputes with INWIT's two largest customers, which are pressuring the company's business outlook and market valuation. Ardian holds 32% of INWIT, while Oak Holdings owns 39%, totaling 71% of the company's shares.

The proposed transaction would remove INWIT from the Milan stock exchange by acquiring shares held by minority shareholders. Mubadala is expected to participate in the plan as part of the transaction structure, though specific financing details and terms for minority shareholders remain undisclosed.
