Vitale advised the shareholders of Plurima on the disposal of a 100% stake to Poste Italiane

On 18th March 2022, Poste Italiane S.p.A. signed a binding agreement for the acquisition of 100% of Plurima from the Group's shareholders for an Enterprise Value of € 130 million.

Plurima is leader in Italy in hospital logistics and document management services mainly for private and public hospitals. The Group operates with a fleet of about 290 vehicles and has a widespread presence in the regions of central and northern Italy.

In 2021, the Group generated around € 60 millions in aggregated revenues and around € 10 millions in EBITDA. The transaction has a strong strategic rationale as it will allow Poste Italiane to continue its repositioning process as a wide-ranging logistics operator.

In the context of the transaction, the Marconi family will reinvest part of the proceeds in order to maintain a 30% stake in Plurima, while the fund Siparex will entirely sell its share, previously acquired in 2018.

Vitale acted as financial advisor to the shareholders of Plurima S.p.A., supporting them in the selection of the preferred partner, due diligence process, in structuring the transaction and in the negotiation phases.
