Helloworld Launches A$0.90 Per Share Cash Bid for Webjet

Helloworld Travel Limited (ASX:HLO) announced on 19 November 2025 a cash offer to acquire all outstanding shares of Webjet Group Ltd (ASX:WJL) at A$0.90 per share, representing a total deal value of approximately A$340 million based on Webjet's issued capital. The proposal aims to combine Helloworld's extensive retail network with Webjet's strong digital B2B platform, with Helloworld highlighting expected synergies in technology and market reach. No formal response from Webjet has been issued yet, and the offer remains subject to regulatory approvals and shareholder votes. This follows Helloworld's recent MTA acquisition integration progress, positioning the move as part of broader consolidation efforts in the fragmented Australasian travel sector.
