- Exor also completed the divestments in GEDI, Lifenet and NUO and reached an agreement to sell its stake in Welltec. The Welltec deal will return a MOIC of approximately 2.4x and bring Exor's deployable cash to around €4 billion
- NAV per share declined 3.9% in the first half of 2026, compared with an 11.8% increase in the MSCI World Index

"The reshaping of our portfolio has continued. We are pleased with this year's divestments and the returns they have delivered, and equally pleased to have found good homes for these companies with owners who can take them forward into their next phase of growth," Exor CEO John Elkann said. "Our shares meanwhile continue to trade at a substantial discount to NAV and, in addition, don't reflect our assessment of the intrinsic value of our portfolio. As share purchases are a crucial part of our capital allocation strategy, we are launching a buyback program of up to €500 million," he said.
