HanseYachts AG Completes Change of Ownership Faster Than Expected

Greifswald, 04th July 2025

Croatia Yachting is happy to announce that just three weeks after signing the Share Purchase Agreement (SPA), the ownership transition of HanseYachts AG has been successfully completed.

With today’s closing, Andreas Müller becomes the new majority shareholder of HanseYachts AG. Together with CEO Hanjo Runde, he is acquiring the shares previously held by ‘Aurelius’.

The swift completion of the transaction was made possible by a constructive agreement with financing partners, the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, and other stakeholders.

Hanjo Runde, CEO HanseYachts AG, stated:
“We would like to thank all parties involved for the efficient and focused cooperation. We will continue to pursue our strategic direction with determination. The new framework conditions –particularly the replacement of previous bank liabilities– now give us significantly more entrepreneurial flexibility and open up new opportunities for the development of our company.”

Andreas Müller, Müller-Verwaltung, added:
“HanseYachts is facing a promising future. I look forward to working closely with Hanjo Runde. We
are united by the entrepreneurial pragmatism of the mid-sized sector and a shared vision of
sustainable, family-driven entrepreneurship.”
