MAKEMYTRIP LIMITED AND IBIBO GROUP TO COMBINE

 

 

Investors are advised that terms have been agreed for Naspers Limited's Indian travel business, Ibibo Group (ibibo), to enter into a transaction with Nasdaq-listed MakeMyTrip Limited (NASDAQ:MMYT), which will combine the two businesses under MMYT to create one of the largest travel groups in India.

 

Naspers and Tencent (700: Hong Kong), through their jointly-owned holding company (91% owned by Naspers and 9% owned by Tencent), are selling 100% of ibibo to MMYT in exchange for the issuance of new shares by MMYT. Naspers and Tencent will become the single largest shareholder in MakeMyTrip, owning a 40% stake, and will contribute proportionate working capital upon closing.

 

The combination of ibibo and MMYT will bring together a bouquet of leading consumer travel brands, including MakeMyTrip, goibibo, redBus, Ryde and Rightstay. The Transaction is expected to unlock value for customers, supply partners and shareholders, by combining the complementary strengths of each travel group. MMYT brings its strong brand, robust mix of domestic and outbound hotels and packages business, and the strong position of its air ticketing business. ibibo, via its goibibo and redBus brands, comes with strong presence in the fast-growing hotel market, bus ticket-booking segment and a fast-growing air ticketing business.

 

The Transaction is expected to close by the end of December 2016, and is subject to approval by MMYT shareholders, and regulatory approvals.
