OPERATING UNIT — Last-mile electric vehicle manufacturer, in Spain

INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY | ACQUISITION OF AN OPERATING UNIT — LAST-MILE ELECTRIC MOBILITY

■ THE OPPORTUNITY

For sale, as a going concern, the business unit of a European company in the last-mile electric mobility sector: own factory, approved product range, active customers. This is not a liquidation: the hard part of this sector — years of development, type-approval and market positioning — has already been done, in a market driven by low-emission zones and EU regulations.

The transaction is carried out through a pre-pack insolvency procedure (arts. 224 ter et seq. TRLC), under the supervision of the independent expert appointed by the competent Commercial Court.

Confidentiality: anonymized publication profile. The company’s identity and location are disclosed only after signing the non-disclosure agreement (NDA).

■ WHAT THE OPERATING UNIT INCLUDES (scope configurable according to the bidder’s interest)

• Infrastructure and real estate: recently built open-plan industrial warehouse, with steel structure and access suitable for heavy vehicles; large storage, maneuvering and parking areas, wastewater treatment plant and test track/proving ground.

• Industrial equipment: machinery and facilities in operation for vehicle manufacturing.

• Product and fleet: proprietary range of EU type-approved electric vehicles for urban delivery, with several models, and an owned fleet linked to operations.

• Industrial and intellectual property: international portfolio with patents covering the vehicle’s core technology (registered in Europe, the U.S. and China, with PCT pending), utility models, industrial designs and trademarks registered in key markets (EU, U.S., United Kingdom).

• Positioning and after-sales: well-regarded brand in the sector and an established after-sales service network.

• Customer portfolio: active contracts with major parcel, logistics, food distribution and industrial operators.

• Human team: qualified workforce available for transfer, with strong know-how in engineering, production and sales.

■ LIABILITIES AND ENCUMBRANCES 

The transfer is carried out free of the group’s liabilities: trade and financial debts and litigation are not transferred. The bidder decides what to assume in its offer — the employees it takes on and the encumbrances on the assets included, with the property mortgage transferable or cancellable with the price. All of this is subject to the Expert’s acceptance and court approval.
