Who wants to save KTM? In the battle for the restructuring of the bankrupt motorcycle manufacturer, at least one thing is becoming increasingly clear: a future for the company, which is apparently sitting on a mountain of debt of around two billion euros, is realistic. More than twenty investors compete for access to the global brand.
During the reporting meeting on December 20, 2024, restructuring manager Peter Vogl from KTM-AG reported to the regional court in Ried im Innkreis that there were three non-binding offers from investors. Four days before Christmas, Bajaj, CFMoto and FountainVest were in the running with hundreds of millions of euros. Bajaj is already a co-owner, the KTM Group has a joint venture with CFMoto to produce motorcycles and FountainVest is a Hong Kong investment company.
