Max Stock Limited Reports Significant Share Sale by Controlling Shareholder Moose Holdco Ltd.

Max Stock Limited, one of Israel's leading retail companies, has recently announced a notable shift in its shareholding structure following the sale of shares by Moose Holdco Ltd., a major controlling shareholder. On June 30, 2025, the company disclosed that Moose Holdco sold 7,792,208 shares, equivalent to approximately 5.6% of Max Stock's overall share capital and 20% of Moose Holdco's total holdings in the company, in a private transaction that took place off the standard stock exchange.

Prior to the transaction, Moose Holdco held a significant position in Max Stock, owning 39,350,594 shares which accounted for about 28.2% of the company's share capital. After the sale, they retain 31,558,386 shares, translating to roughly 22.6% of the company’s share capital when assessed on a fully diluted basis. This sale was executed at a unit price of ILS 15.40 per share, reflecting strategic movement amidst changing market conditions.

Moose Holdco remains a key player in Max Stock’s operations alongside Ori Max, the company's CEO and another controlling shareholder, with whom Moose Holdco has a formal shareholder agreement governing their corporate relationship. This development draws attention not only to the financial aspects of the sale but also to the governance dynamics within the company. Moose Holdco is indirectly owned by AMI Opportunities, a private investment fund registered in Guernsey, which holds significant influence over corporate decisions.

AMI Opportunities itself is entirely controlled by AMI Foundation, also based in Guernsey, and managed by its councilors Carl Hermann Konrad Friedlaender and Bruce Stephen James, along with guardian Robert Edward Alistair Eden. According to available information, AMI Foundation receives advisory support from Apax Partners Israel Ltd., further entwining investment strategies and governance.

This shift in shareholding comes as Max Stock continues to expand its presence in the retail market, boasting 64 stores across Israel. The company has made a mark as a leading extreme value retailer, providing a diverse range of quality products at competitive prices, adhering to its motto of enabling customers to 'Dream Big, Pay Small.' As potential investors and stakeholders analyze these developments, the focus will likely remain on how this change impacts shareholder dynamics as well as day-to-day operations.

Looking ahead, the retail landscape in Israel remains competitive, prompting companies like Max Stock to adapt to fluctuations in share ownership and market strategies. Investors will keenly observe how Moose Holdco's reduced stake affects the company’s operational decisions and its overall market positioning.

Max Stock’s commitment to offering value and quality will be put to the test as it navigates these transitions within its corporate governance. The continual management and growth of investments in such turbulent economic times will be critical for sustaining its competitive edge in the burgeoning consumer market.
