InPost

InPost reported a Q2 net profit decline of 30% to 93 million PLN, while adjusted EBITDA rose only 4.4% to 1.04 billion PLN and the margin fell 330 basis points to 25%. Drivers were higher impairments on the parcel locker network, negative currency effects and an almost halved EBITDA performance in the United Kingdom due to ongoing restructuring measures. Revenue grew 18% to 4.18 billion PLN and parcel volume rose 16% to 380.9 million items; the international revenue share was 54% for the first time. For 2026 InPost lowers its guidance and now expects a mid-single-digit percentage decline in adjusted EBITDA, lower capex of 2.1 billion PLN and a higher leverage; for Q3 it forecasts a low single-digit volume increase. » Mere på de.investing.com

A consortium led by FedEx agreed an all-cash offer to buy InPost for €7.8 billion (~$9.2bn), valuing the company at €15.60 per share, a 50% premium to its Jan. 2 price. Under the deal FedEx and Advent would each hold 37%, A&R 16% and PPF 10%, while InPost will continue to operate as a standalone business with Rafal Brzoska as CEO. The investment aims to accelerate expansion of InPost’s out‑of‑home network of parcel lockers and pick‑up points across key European markets and integrate access to FedEx’s global air and ground network. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of the year, with a $78m breakup fee if InPost accepts a competing offer. » Mere på finance.yahoo.com

According to reports, Advent is exploring a partnership with InPost founder and CEO Rafal Brzoska and the PPF Group to potentially take the Amsterdam-listed logistics company private.

InPost confirmed receipt of a takeover offer and the formation of a special committee to review the bid, but did not disclose the buyer or the price. » Mere på de.investing.com
