Hapag-Lloyd to Acquire <a href="https://laohu8.com/S/ZIM">ZIM</a> for $4.2 Billion

Hapag-Lloyd has signed an agreement to acquire 100% of ZIM Integrated Shipping Services for approximately USD 4.2 billion in cash, valuing each ZIM share at USD 35. The deal will be financed through Hapag-Lloyd’s cash reserves and up to USD 2.5 billion in external financing. Completion of the transaction is expected by the end of 2026, pending required regulatory approvals, approval from ZIM’s general meeting, and the consent of the State of Israel, which holds special rights in ZIM. As part of the process, certain ships and trade route assets will be transferred to a company controlled by FIMI Opportunity Funds, subject to Israeli authorities’ approval. Following the merger, ZIM will operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hapag-Lloyd.
