DEUTZ AG Acquires FFG Flensburger Fahrzeugbau in Strategic Expansion

DEUTZ AG has announced an agreement to acquire FFG Flensburger Fahrzeugbau Gesellschaft mbH. This transaction involves a cash payment and issuance of new DEUTZ shares representing up to 29.9% of DEUTZ's expanded capital. Acquiring 100% of FFG's shares, DEUTZ aims to integrate FFG's robust market presence in military land and special-purpose vehicles.

The acquisition's total value is set at €1.6 billion, comprising a €1.0 billion cash component funded by international bank financing, and a €0.6 billion equity component through new shares. An Extraordinary General Meeting is slated for August 2026 to approve the share issuance.

This move aligns with DEUTZ's 'Next DEUTZ' strategy, enhancing its Defense segment. The transaction, pending regulatory and shareholder approvals, is expected to close by late 2026 or early 2027.
