The ACS group has announced a 2% capital increase and the sale of shares totaling 2.173 billion euros to boost its strategic plan focused on digital infrastructure.
ACS launched today a 2% capital increase equivalent to 5.4 million shares, together with the sale of 11.1 million shares previously reserved for management incentives. The total amounts to 16.5 million shares valued at 2.173 billion euros at 131.7 euros per share.
The main shareholders are participating actively. Florentino Pérez, through Rosán Inversiones, will subscribe to 1.2 million shares for 158 million euros. CriteriaCaixa will invest up to 536 million euros in a maximum of 4.07 million shares, provided its stake remains below 25% of the placed package.
The funds will support the development of data centers, semiconductor facilities and artificial intelligence-related infrastructure in markets such as the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia-Pacific. The accelerated placement, structured by Société Générale, will conclude tomorrow before market opening, when the final price will be announced.
ACS informed the CNMV that the equity swap transactions with Société Générale and CaixaBank have ended early, providing an additional approximately 1.100 billion euros. The group expects to present a new 2027-2029 strategic plan by the end of the year.
