Vista Global has signed a definitive agreement for an equity investment of $600 million from a consortium led by RRJ Capital, an Asian investment firm. This move marks another significant milestone in Vista's growth journey and validates the confidence in the group's strategic vision and business model.
This investment will optimise the group's capital structure, enhance free cashflow generation and reduce indebtedness. This is in line with Vista's commitment to accelerate deleveraging, diversify its investor base and further strengthens its financial position.
Commenting on the announcement, Vista's founder and chairman, Thomas Flohr says: “This announcement is a strong endorsement of our strategy and long-term vision for the future, while also providing us with great partners for years to come. We are excited to welcome RRJ Capital and the rest of the consortium to join our existing carefully curated investor base and look forward to working with Richard and the rest of the team to support Vista's next phase of growth.”
RRJ founder and CEO Richard Ong adds: “RRJ is very pleased to become a long-term partner to Vista, the leading private jet company in the world. With over 20 years of industry innovation and a global presence across all markets, this strategic investment in Vista marks an exciting new chapter in our shared journey.”
Andalusian Private Capital and others will participate alongside RRJ Capital in bringing a broad range of expertise and expanded global network. They join existing shareholders, including Rhône Group, who have been longstanding investors in Vista. The transaction is expected to close before the end of March 2025.
