MHP SE has entered into a binding agreement to acquire up to 100% of shares in Th. Nitsiakos AVEE. The transaction remains subject to customary regulatory approvals and other closing conditions. Under the terms of the agreement, MHP will acquire 70% of the Th. Nitsiakos AVEE share capital in three sequential tranches.
