Intesa Sanpaolo stock now has a formal MPS offer timetable after Consob approved the offer document. Shareholders can tender from November 24.

What Consob approval changes

Regulatory clearance moves Intesa Sanpaolo's MPS transaction into the shareholder acceptance phase.
The offer combines newly issued Intesa shares with a cash component, leaving execution and investor take-up as the next focal points.
A possible reopening in February could extend the timetable after the initial acceptance period.

Consob has approved the offer document for Intesa Sanpaolo's public tender and exchange offer for all shares of Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena. The decision, reported by Il Sole 24 Ore on Sunday, November 8, removes a major regulatory step before MPS shareholders can decide whether to tender their shares.

Intesa Sanpaolo's Investor Relations page lists the acceptance period from Tuesday, November 24, 2026, through Friday, January 22, 2027, inclusive of the start and end dates unless the period is extended. The prospectus is scheduled for publication on Tuesday, November 10, according to the report.

Offer terms enter decisive phase

The consideration consists of 1.664 newly issued Intesa Sanpaolo shares and 1.25 euros in cash for each MPS share tendered. The exchange ratio was raised from the initial 1.600 shares after Intesa approved a 22-cent interim dividend, a change intended to neutralize the effect of the dividend detachment on the offer terms. The cash component had previously been increased by 25 cents.

Settlement is expected on January 29, 2027, with the exchange of tendered shares and payment of the cash component. If the conditions for a reopening are met, a further five-day window is scheduled from February 1 to February 5. That timetable gives investors several distinct dates to monitor rather than a single closing event.

For Intesa shareholders, the transaction combines potential strategic expansion with issuance of new equity. The share component makes the final economics sensitive to Intesa's share price, while the cash element provides a fixed amount per MPS share. For MPS investors, the decision will depend on the balance between immediate cash, exposure to Intesa shares and the prospects for the combined banking group.

Intesa Sanpaolo stock traded at 6.28 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 12:12 CET on Monday, November 9, 2026. Investors can follow the real-time quote of Intesa Sanpaolo stock as the offer timetable advances.
