EQT Infrastructure VI has entered into a binding Scheme Implementation Deed to acquire 100 percent of Cleanaway Waste Management, the ASX-listed integrated waste management and resource recovery company, for A$3.095 cash per share. EQT says the price implies an enterprise valuation of approximately A$9.3 billion and a 32.1% premium to Cleanaway's undisturbed share price of A$2.37 on 12 August 2026. [01]
Cleanaway provides collection, recycling, treatment and disposal services to households, businesses, councils and communities across Australia. Its board unanimously recommends the scheme, in the absence of a superior proposal and subject to an independent expert's conclusion. The deal needs Cleanaway shareholder and Federal Court of Australia approval plus regulatory approvals, and is expected to be implemented by the end of March 2027. Samantha Hogg is Cleanaway's Chair, and Sam Franklin is a Managing Director at EQT Infrastructure. [01]
