Wood Group’s shareholders vote Oct. 23 on a £216M Dubai takeover amid financial turmoil and leadership change.
Wood Group, an Aberdeen-based engineering firm, faces job uncertainty as shareholders prepare to vote on a £216 million takeover by Dubai’s Sidara, with CEO Ken Gilmartin stepping down after the vote.
The deal, reduced from an initial offer, comes amid financial struggles, including a debt breach and delayed 2024 results due to audit issues.
Iain Torrens, the interim CFO, will succeed Gilmartin as CEO.
A special meeting on October 23 aimed to lift borrowing restrictions to keep the takeover viable.
The outcome will determine the company’s future in Scotland and the North Sea.
