Finnish Government Plans Posti IPO to Raise €89 Million Ending State Monopoly
Finland's national postal service operator, Posti Group, is preparing for an initial public offering (IPO) on the Nasdaq Helsinki stock exchange, with trading expected to begin on October 14, 2025, under the ticker symbol "POSTI." The Finnish government will maintain a majority stake of approximately 70.5% in the company after the IPO, which aims to raise up to €89 million by offering around 11.6 million shares priced at €7.50 each, valuing Posti at about €300 million. Retail and institutional investors have defined subscription periods, with employees eligible to purchase shares at a 10% discount. The IPO reflects a broader trend of government asset monetization and is seen as an opportunity to expand Posti's ownership base and enhance financial flexibility. Despite speculation about restructuring due to declining letter mail volumes, Posti will list as a single entity encompassing e-commerce, delivery, warehousing, logistics, and traditional postal services. The offering is not available to investors in certain jurisdictions, including the United States, and aims to leverage Posti's strong market position and delivery network to create future shareholder value.
