12:01 PM EDT, 09/04/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Viva Wine Group (VIVA.ST) said Friday it applied to delist its shares from Nasdaq Stockholm as Riesling Ventures prepares for the compulsory redemption of the remaining Viva Wine shares it does not own. Riesling on Monday declared its public takeover offer to the Swedish wine group as unconditional after securing acceptances for 96.4% of Viva Wine shares. Settlement is expected on Friday, while shares tendered during the extended acceptance period, which closes on Sept. 11, will be paid on Sept. 18. In June, Riesling offered 38.5 kronor in cash for each Viva Wine share, valuing the latter's share capital at 3.45 billion kronor.
