6 Oct 2026Pendal GroupHeldPendal Group continues to hold Atlas Arteria Group (ASX: ALX), whose shares fell 3.1% after initial French budget discussions flagged a possible tripling of France's infrastructure tax. Pendal estimates this could create a headwind of up to 6 cents per share against Atlas Arteria's current 40 cents per share dividend. Pendal views this as the continuation of a seemingly never-ending series of government measures extracting value from French motorway assets, highlighting ongoing regulatory and fiscal risk for the toll road operator.

22 Jun 2026Pendal GroupHeldPendal Group continues to hold Atlas Arteria as IFM's takeover bid approaches its end point. The fund notes that IFM made its bid unconditional and signalled a higher bid price, describing it as final and expiring at the end of the week. Pendal highlights that IFM's current ownership stands at 38.5% and considers it a high probability that IFM will fall short of achieving control given the board continues to oppose the bid.

About Atlas Arteria Group

Industrials, Transportation Infrastructure

Atlas Arteria (ASX:ALX), a global toll road owner, has been the subject of a hostile takeover attempt by its largest shareholder. In June 2026, Pendal Group reported Atlas Arteria rejected IFM's takeover bid as undervalued, noting the bid did not appear to be a serious attempt to acquire the company, before IFM made its offer unconditional and final. Harvest Lane, acting as a merger arbitrage investor, backed Atlas Arteria amid the bid, noting it planned to sell assets to defend itself. Pendal said IFM built its stake to 35% using creep provisions. Atlas Arteria operates in the Industrials sector within the Transportation Infrastructure industry, and Thesis Tracker has captured 12 comments from 6 fund managers, including Pendal Group and Harvest Lane. Founded in 2009 and headquartered in Melbourne, Atlas Arteria owns and operates toll roads, including the APRR network in France, the Warnow Tunnel in Germany and the Dulles Greenway in the US.
