Steyr Motors AG Board Backs Red Cat's Purchase Offer

The Management and Supervisory Boards of Steyr Motors AG advise shareholders to accept Red Cat Holdings' purchase offer priced at EUR 39.00 per share. This offer represents a 29% premium over the share's trading price before the announcement. The audit firm PwC has confirmed the offer's financial fairness.

A key shareholder, B&C Holding, along with CEO Julian Cassutti, has agreed to tender shares, signaling trust in the offer. Red Cat Holdings, through its subsidiary SMOT Acquisition GmbH, plans to retain Steyr Motors' operations and workforce in Austria, committing to preserve the company’s identity.

The acceptance period for this offer ends on December 18, 2026. The boards believe this deal benefits Steyr Motors by providing growth opportunities and financial security without additional debt burden.
