The German group Rheinmetall has paid in full the sum of 138,034,320.47 euros for the industrial platform of Mangalia Shipyard and has signed the sale and purchase agreement. However, the transaction has not been finalized, as the transfer of ownership depends on obtaining the approvals and authorizations required by law.

Rheinmetall Real Estate România SRL won the auction organized on October 9 by judicial administrator CITR, after submitting the 10% deposit. On Monday, November 9, the company paid the remaining 124.2 million euros, excluding VAT, and the agreement was signed.

According to CITR, this is the largest transaction carried out to date in Romania for a company undergoing insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings. The money was reportedly deposited into an escrow account and will remain blocked until the contractual conditions are fulfilled.

Finalizing the takeover requires approvals from the Competition Council and the institutions responsible for the environment, water management, and installation safety. Until these are obtained, ownership is not transferred. CITR maintains that the transaction creates the conditions for revitalizing industrial activity in Mangalia.

Context: de la falimentul Mangalia la licitații eșuate și disputa dintre creditori

Înainte de tranzacția cu Rheinmetall, Șantierul Naval Mangalia intrase în faliment în aprilie 2026, după ce planul de reorganizare a fost respins de creditori. Ulterior, tribunalul a aprobat vânzarea accelerată a activelor, iar șantierul a trecut prin mai multe licitații fără cumpărători, prețul de pornire fiind redus de la aproximativ 184 de milioane de euro la circa 138 de milioane de euro.

În paralel, principalul creditor, Damen Holding BV, a contestat în instanță modificarea procedurii și reducerea prețului, contestația urmând să fie analizată de Tribunalul Constanța. În același timp, Rheinmetall (împreună cu grupul MSC) a anunțat că vrea preluarea activelor și transformarea amplasamentului într-o facilitate cu utilizare duală, capabilă să construiască atât nave militare, cât și nave comerciale.
