    <summary>Investment firm Mutares has completed its acquisition of the German thermal-process engineering specialist from Japan's IHI Group.

The announcement date of the deal is not documented here, so the entry date is the completion day (Mutares via Oslo Børs, 15 Oct 2026). — Source: https://newsweb.oslobors.no/message/684170</summary>

    <summary>Japanese group Seven &amp; i Holdings (7-Eleven) confirmed on 17 July that it is in talks about taking a stake in Polish convenience chain Żabka (around 10,000 stores). No binding decision has been made; figures of several billion USD are reported (unconfirmed). Second source: money.pl. Outcome (25 July 2026): Seven &amp; i Holdings ended the talks about a stake in Żabka without a result. The company said it had been unable to agree terms with the seller that in its view would be in the best interests of Seven &amp; i's shareholders and partners — according to Polish reporting, price was the sticking point. The negotiations thus ended after around eight days; Seven &amp; i still intends to pursue European expansion. Żabka's share price had risen 15.9% at one point on 16 July, to a record level, on news of the talks. — Source: https://www.rp.pl/handel/art44885611-koniec-rozmow-o-przejeciu-zabki-japonska-firma-wycofuje-sie-z-inwestycji</summary>
