Saudi Arabia’s NEOM invests in Technogym

Saudi Arabia’s NEOM invests in Technogym
December 4, 2023

Saudi Arabia NEOM Investment Fund (NIF) - the strategic investment arm of NEOM Company - announced late last week it will hold 6% of Technogym share capital after a €111.1 million investment, intending to be a long-term minority shareholder in the Italian-based fitness equipment manufacturer.

In a reverse accelerated bookbuilding (RABB) operation, NIF bought 8.8 million shares at €9.20 each from other investors and entered a derivate solution for the purchase of a further 3.3 million ordinary shares, the statement said.

Shares at Technogym were up 6.1% at 8.48 euros per share at 1150 GMT, after closing last thursday at €7.99 per share. The price paid by NIF represents a 15% premium compared to Thursday's Technogym closing price.

JP Morgan acted as sole bookrunner for the transaction, while Rothschild acted as financial advisor to NIF.
