Pierre-Antoine Vacheron, CEO of Worldline, stated: “The closing of the Mobility & e-Transactional services transaction marks a key milestone in the execution of our North Star plan, achieved on schedule despite the complexity of the operation. We are now fully refocused on our core business and expertise: payments in Europe. Our ambition is, more than ever, to become the leading partner for merchants and financial institutions, supporting them in an increasingly demanding environment in terms of security, regulation, and technological performance.” Worldline will continue to provide certain technology and software services to the Magellan Partners Group to ensure business continuity during a transition period. The net cash proceeds from the transaction amounts to approximately €280M, within the previously indicated range of €250M–€300M. The difference of around €120M between the enterprise value and the net proceeds is primarily attributable to separation costs related to the perimeter, pension costs, other debt-like items, and capital gains tax. The net cash proceeds also exclude approximately €40M of cash held by the entity. The combined net cash proceeds[1] from all the announced disposals (Mobility & e-Transactional Services, Worldline North America, Cetrel, PaymentIQ, Worldline Merchant Services India, Worldline New Zealand and ANZ Worldline Payment Solutions Australia) are estimated at €590M-640M. The funds should be received in 2026, strengthening the Group’s financial profile, enhancing strategic flexibility and supporting the redeployment of capital towards core activities. Worldline welcomes the completion of this strategic transaction led by Magellan Partners and wishes them every success in the future development of this business.
