A takeover approach has propelled shares of Polish parcel-locker operator InPost SA to their strongest weekly gain on record, turning one of Europe’s biggest underperformers of 2025 into its leading stock. Topping the Stoxx Europe 600 Index with a 38% jump, InPost said it received “an indicative proposal ” for a possible takeover. Buyout firm Advent International LP — which owns 6.5% of the firm — is in talks to team up with InPost founder Rafal Brzoska and Czech investment company PPF Group NV on a potential buyout of the logistics company, Bloomberg News reported . “InPost is one of the most misunderstood and undervalued stocks in European midcaps,” said Adam Montanaro, fund manager at Montanaro Asset Management. “We would hope for a premium that recognizes the substantial value of the business that has not been accurately reflected in the market recently.” After a 37% drop last year, the stock is trading at around 19 times forward earnings — well below its peak of around 49 times. One of Poland’s most outspoken businessmen , Brzoska sought to challenge the country’s state-run postal monopoly with a more convenient delivery model built via automated parcel lockers. After listing InPost predecessor Integer.PL SA in Warsaw in 2007, the firm delisted ten years later, weighed down by heavy debt to fund overseas expansion. Riding a pandemic-fueled e-commerce boom, Brzoska returned to the market with InPost’s 2021 Amsterdam debut. Since then its market value has declined and its shares remain mired below the IPO price — even as the company’s effort to expand its network across Europe and the UK has lifted parcel volumes and roughly tripled adjusted profit.

Cardano (CRYPTO: ADA) sometimes seems like a cryptocurrency with huge potential that keeps tripping over itself. It's a dependable cryptocurrency with the technical answers to many of the challenges the industry faces. It's just never quite managed to attract the same attention as Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) or Solana (CRYPTO: SOL) in terms of applications on its ecosystem and commercial adoption. Image source: Getty Images. That may change this year. Charles Hoskinson, the main figure behind Cardano, has been pushing the rollout of partner chain, Midnight (CRYPTO: NIGHT) , as a way to give the smart-contract blockchain a new lease on life. He told Altcoin Daily in December that Midnight may make people see the ecosystem differently and argued it might boost both projects. Continue reading
