Further to the announcement made on 5 January 2021, Mondi confirms that all conditions have been satisfied and it has completed the acquisition of 90.38% of the outstanding shares in Olmuksan International Paper Ambalaj Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S (“Olmuksan” or the “Company”) from International Paper for a total consideration of €66 million. The implied enterprise value on a 100% basis would amount to around €88 million.

We look forward to welcoming the Olmuksan team to Mondi."
