The purchase of the shares of FBSerwis will be financed with own funds of Budimex.

 

The purchase of FBSerwis shares and taking the control over the company is of a long-term nature and falls within the implementation of the development strategy of the Budimex Group which is based on building value for shareholders through the diversification of construction activities and the development of service business.

 

FBSerwis was founded in 2012 as a joint venture of Ferrovial Services (Ferrovial Group service division) and Budimex.

A. with its registered office in Madrid, Spain, which indirectly holds 55.14% share in the share capital of Budimex and indirectly holds 100% share in the share capital of FSI.

 

Since the purchase of the shares of FBSerwis is concluded between affiliated entities, Budimex, guided by the principle of transparency, decided to appoint an independent expert, PwC Advisory spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością sp.k., to obtain a fairness opinion on the financial terms of the transaction. Prior to the conclusion of the Agreement, Budimex obtained a favourable opinion of the expert, enclosed with this current report.

 

The value of the contract, considered as the Price together with a commitment to guarantee the repayment of loans by FBSerwis, exceeds the threshold of PLN 147,743 thousand net.
