Grupa Azoty has submitted a counteroffer regarding the acquisition by ORLEN of shares in Grupa Azoty Polyolefins S.A. (GAP). The value of the counteroffer is identical to ORLEN’s offer and amounts to PLN 1.022 billion. The counteroffer remains valid until 28 March 2026 and—like ORLEN’s offer—assumes completion of the transaction by 30 June 2026.

The Management Board of Grupa Azoty Polyolefins, a subsidiary of Grupa Azoty, has decided to initiate restructuring proceedings under a Restructuring Approval Procedure (PZU), with the arrangement date set for 28 November 2025. This decision follows the company’s loss of ability to service its current liabilities and was preceded by an analysis of available corrective tools intended to enable the company to continue operating.

In the first three quarters of 2025, Grupa Azoty recorded revenues of PLN 10.04 billion, an increase of approx. 2.1% compared with PLN 9.83 billion in the corresponding period of 2024. The Group’s EBITDA improved from PLN -299 million to PLN 312 million, representing an increase of PLN 611 million. EBITDA excluding Grupa Azoty Polyolefins improved from PLN -186 million to PLN 346 million, an increase of PLN 532 million.
