Flight Centre Travel Group To Divest Pedal Group Stake

Flight Centre Travel Group has entered a binding agreement to divest its shareholding in the Pedal Group cycle joint venture to the Turner Collective; the transaction is subject to Flight Centre shareholder approval and regulatory clearance. The announcement disclosed no financial terms or closing timeline. The deal reduces Flight Centre's exposure to the cycling retail JV and, absent disclosed proceeds, is unlikely to materially move the group's earnings or valuation.
