Financials Market: Porsche completes Rimac stake sale for €1 billion
Porsche AG has finalized the sale of its shares in Bugatti Rimac and the Rimac Group, generating approximately €1 billion. The transaction, approved by authorities on Wednesday, follows contracts signed in April. Porsche will use €250 million of the proceeds to fund pension obligations, with the remaining amount supporting its focus on core operations amid a cost-cutting program. The sale is part of Porsche's broader strategy to divest non-core assets, including its e-bike business and consulting subsidiary MHP. The company has revised its 2026 net cash flow margin forecast for the automotive segment upwards to 5.5-7.5 percent, from a previous range of 3-5 percent.
