<\/strong>Egytrans completed its acquisition of 99.9% of the National Transport and <\/strong>Overseas Services Co. (Nosco)\u2019s EGX-listed shates<\/strong>, marking the first reverse merger on the Egyptian Stock Exchange through a share swap, the local logistics leader said in a statement (pdf)<\/a> on Thursday. Egytrans\u2019 takeover of the trucking firm had been in the works <\/span>since as early as March<\/a>2023<\/a> but was <\/span>pushed back at least twice<\/a> due to delayed regulatory procedures.<\/span><\/p>\n

The details:<\/strong> The acquisition was conducted through a swap of one Egytrans share for 0.0447 shares of Nosco, which resulted in an increase of Egytrans's total capital to approximately EGP 224.9 mn. The final ownership structure of the merged entity is 70.2% for Egytrans shareholders and 29.8% for Nosco shareholders, according to the fair value determined by independent financial advisor Archer Financial Consulting.<\/p>\n

Egytrans\u2019 Abir Leheta will be CEO of shared services for the merged entity<\/strong>, while Nosco\u2019s Mohamed Nadim will be CEO for commercial affairs and operations. Maged Shawky will continue as chairman.<\/p>\n

What they said:<\/strong> \u201cNosco brings long-standing expertise in project logistics and land transport, which complements Egytrans\u2019 diversified platform \u2014 enabling new solutions and services within Egypt and beyond and supporting growth rates above market averages,\u201d said Leheta.<\/p>\n

ADVISORS- <\/strong>Catalyst Partners acted as the investment bank and financial advisor for the transaction. Zaki Hashem and Partners provided counsel for the transaction, while Al Tamimi and Co. provided counsel on Egyptian Competition Authority requirements. Beltone Securities Brokerage executed the transaction.<\/p>\n

IN OTHER M&A WATCH UPDATES- <\/p>\n

GWC <\/strong>closes Ancla Logistik stake:<\/strong> Qatar's Gulf Warehousing Company (GWC) has finalized its acquisition of a 16.15% stake in German supply chain operator Ancla Logistik<\/a>, according to a disclosure<\/a> to the Qatar Stock Exchange. This follows up on GWC\u2019s agreement last month<\/a> to snap up the stake in the firm for a EUR 8.2 mn.<\/p>\n

What we know: <\/strong>GWC is using its own funds to acquire the stake. The investment isn't expected to significantly impact the company\u2019s financial results this year, it said last month.<\/p>\n

About Ancla:<\/strong> Established in 2006 and based in Wetzlar, Ancla Logistik provides contract logistics, freight forwarding, customs, and e-commerce fulfillment. Following a 2022 merger with Austria\u2019s Logsta, the company operates under the Quivo<\/a> network across Germany, Austria, the UK, France, and the US.<\/p>\n

GWC\u2019s ambitions beyond Qatar: <\/strong>Earlier this year, GWC launched<\/a> a wholly-owned subsidiary in Saudi Arabia \u2014 called GWC ENR \u2014 based in Dammam. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
