AXA completes the acquisition of a majority stake in Prima
AXA announced today that it has completed the acquisition of a majority stake in Prima.
Under the terms of the transaction, and in line with the announcement made upon signing1 , AXA has acquired 51% of the company2 for a consideration of Euro 0.5 billion. Call/put options to be exercised at a price tied to Prima's earnings have been entered into between AXA and the minority stakeholders respectively for AXA to acquire the remaining stake, and are expected to be exercised in 2029 or 2030.
Including the re-capture of the business currently written by third party insurance carriers, the transaction is expected to result in an impact of -6 points3 on AXA Group's Solvency II ratio, in line with the expected impact announced at signing.
1 Announcement made on August 1, 2025.
2 AXA owns 51% of the MGA and a further stake up to 2% is expected to be acquired after closing as soon as practicable, on the same terms. AXA expects to recapture 100% of the premiums currently written in Italy and Spain by third party insurers.
3 The -6 points impact consists of (i) a -4 points impact upon closing, related to the cost for the 53% share, plus the net present value of the cost of acquiring the remaining stake in Prima in 2029 or 2030 through the put/call option agreements, in accordance with Solvency II requirements, and (ii) and estimated -2 points impact over time tied to the planned progressive re-capture of the premiums underwritten by third-party insurers, expected to start by the end of 2026 (subject to regulatory approval).
