After several weeks of tension, ZIM announces an agreement with a group of dissenting shareholders to end a confrontation focused on governance and concerns related to a potential delisting operation. The compromise rests on a key point: the expansion of the board of directors to 10 members and an adjusted voting sheet at the meeting scheduled for December 26.

In this new arrangement, the company proposes the re-election of a bloc of outgoing directors, while also integrating two new profiles: Ron Hadassi and Ran Gritzerstein. A third candidate initially supported by the dissidents, Dr. Keren Bar-Hava, withdraws from the race but obtains an observer role on the board.

The group of shareholders behind the pressure — led notably by Mor Gemel Pension, Reading Capital, and Sparta 24 — is said to hold about 8% of the capital. Their message: vigilance on asset valuation and potential conflicts of interest. The management, for its part, insists on the importance of staying focused on the ongoing “strategic review,” while seeking the best value creation for all shareholders.
