Azimut Holding S.p.A. stock traded at EUR 35.62 at Lang & Schwarz on October 15, 2026 at 9:43 a.m. CEST, while the company had agreed on September 21, 2026 to acquire the remaining 49 percent of Kennedy Capital Management.

What does full ownership add?
The transaction places Kennedy Capital Management inside Azimut NSI, the group's US asset-management and distribution platform. The deal is planned as a cash acquisition with earn-out mechanisms, and closing is expected by the end of 2026, according to MarketScreener. The same report said Azimut NSI's assets under management had increased from USD 18.3 billion to more than USD 20.0 billion since its consolidation at the start of 2026.
Flows give the deal a wider setting
Azimut's operating backdrop also included EUR 683.00 million of net inflows in September 2026 and EUR 10.9 billion in total inflows during the first nine months. Repubblica reported that assets under management reached EUR 158.9 billion at the end of September, up 13.00 percent from the start of the year. Private markets contributed EUR 459.00 million to September inflows.
Three events mark the recent timeline
MarketScreener lists EUR 938.00 million of net inflows for August 2026 on September 8, first-half 2026 revenue of EUR 781.00 million on July 30, and the September 21, 2026 agreement for the remaining 49 percent of Kennedy Capital Management.
When is the next reporting date?
MarketScreener's company calendar lists November 5, 2026 for Azimut's third-quarter earnings release. The date gives investors a scheduled point for testing whether the inflow trend and the US platform expansion are translating into reported earnings.
