Summary
Flight Centre Travel Group Limited (FLT) announced its decision to divest a 47% stake in Pedal Group to the Turner Collective, a consortium linked to its managing director, Graham Turner, for $61.7 million. This move is part of FLT's strategic realignment towards its core travel business, simplifying its portfolio. The Pedal Group, which includes 99 Bikes and Advance Traders Australia, is well-positioned for continued growth under the Turner Collective. The sale is subject to shareholder approval at an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) on May 14, 2026, and an independent expert's report has concluded that the terms are fair and reasonable. If completed, the sale is expected to result in a $15 million accounting gain with no cash tax impact. This transaction follows FLT's previous divestments, reinforcing its focus on core travel platforms.
