AB InBevs non-controlling interest in AB InBev Efes BV
23 October 2024 As previously announced, AB InBev (ABI) and Anadolu Efes have been in discussions regarding ABIs non-controlling interest in AB InBev Efes BV, and in December 2023, they announced that Anadolu Efes had agreed to acquire the entirety of that interest. That transaction was subject to required governmental and
other regulatory approvals which were not obtained. ABI and Anadolu Efes have now agreed that Anadolu Efes will acquire ABIs interest in the Russian business and ABI will acquire the interest of Anadolu Efes in the Ukraine business. The
transaction, including the purchase price and other terms, is subject to required governmental and other regulatory approvals.
There can be no
assurances on when and whether these approvals will be obtained.
