KKCG Maritime Seeks More Time for Tender Offer Documentation in Bid for Ferretti Stake

An update from Ferretti S.p.A. ( (IT:YACHT) ) is now available.

KKCG Maritime, through Czech company Azúr a.s., has launched a voluntary conditional partial tender offer for up to 52,132,861 shares of Ferretti S.p.A., equivalent to 15.4% of its subscribed and paid‑in share capital. The move underscores strategic interest in gaining a significant minority stake in the Italian luxury yacht maker, potentially reshaping its shareholder base.

Under Hong Kong’s Takeovers Code, the offer document should have been sent to shareholders within 21 days of the 19 January 2026 notice, but KKCG Maritime has requested an extension to 3 March 2026 due to additional timing requirements under Italian law. The Hong Kong Takeovers Executive has indicated it is inclined to grant the extension, delaying formal offer details but keeping the proposed transaction on track pending publication of the offer document.
