Context

H.I.G. Capital has completed the acquisition of a 73.78% majority stake in ALA from AIP Italia (the vehicle of founders Fulvio Scannapieco and Vittorio Genna).

Following the completion of the 73.78% acquisition in October 2025, H.I.G. launched a mandatory takeover bid (OPA) to acquire the remaining floating shares and proceed with the delisting.
