Virgin Australia has officially marked its return to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) following a successful initial public offering (IPO) that raised $439 million, signaling a major step in the airline’s post-restructuring comeback. This IPO marks the airline’s second listing after its 2020 voluntary administration and subsequent ownership change under Bain Capital.
Capital A, the Malaysian aviation group and parent company of AirAsia, is actively exploring the possibility of listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange as part of its long-term strategic objectives. This initiative is driven by the company’s ambition to expand its access to global capital markets and better position itself for future growth and investment opportunities.
SAS (Sweden) is exploring the possibility of returning to a publicly listed company through an Initial Public Offering (IPO), according to CEO Anko Van der Werff. This move is being considered in light of Air France-KLM’s current decision to maintain its existing stake in the airline rather than increasing it.
