FedEx reports, InPost, a leading European e-commerce solutions provider specializing in out-of-home delivery and automated parcel lockers, has agreed to a recommended all-cash public offer valuing the company at approximately EUR 7.8 billion. The offer is being made by a consortium comprising funds managed or advised by Advent International, a subsidiary of FedEx, A&R Investments, and PPF Group.
Under the terms of the proposed transaction, shareholders would receive EUR 15.60 per share, representing a significant premium to InPost’s undisturbed share price. The transaction has been unanimously approved and recommended by InPost’s boards following a review conducted by a special committee, and is supported by shareholders representing approximately 48% of the company’s outstanding shares.
The consortium plans to support InPost’s existing growth strategy, including further expansion of its automated parcel locker network across Europe and continued investment in consumer-centric digital delivery solutions. InPost will continue to operate as a standalone company under its existing brand, with headquarters in Poland and management led by founder and CEO Rafał Brzoska, who will retain an indirect stake in the business through the consortium.
Following completion of the transaction, which is expected in the second half of 2026 subject to regulatory approvals, the consortium will be structured with Advent and FedEx each holding 37%, A&R holding 16%, and PPF holding 10%. PPF will sell its current stake in InPost and reinvest a portion of the proceeds to retain minority ownership in the consortium.
InPost operates a network of approximately 61,000 automated parcel lockers and has expanded rapidly across Western Europe, quadrupling parcel volumes between 2020 and 2025. The company is positioned to benefit from continued growth in European e-commerce, driven by demand for faster, more convenient, and more sustainable last-mile delivery solutions.
