Following the Italian-shipbuilder’s announcement of bankruptcy this past January, Perini Navi’s assets are to be auctioned off at a baseline auction price of €62.5 million.

Additional assets such as real estate holdings will also be auctioned.
The future of the shipbuilder remains uncertain since it originally alluded to financial troubles in May 2020, having reported losses of more than €80 million in 2019. Though an investment restructuring plan was offered, bankruptcy judges were unable to conclude the deal, leaving Perini Navi in a precarious position.
