The transaction, originally approved by an overwhelming majority of shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on the 30th September, gives BMIT indirect ownership to a number of sites which host data centres, telecom exchanges, and technology-enabled commercial properties.
These assets are leased under long-term contracts to anchor tenants.

Ing. Christian Sammut, CEO of BMIT Technologies plc, commented: “The investment in MPC is a strategic leap forward. It aligns with our vision, enhances our financial profile, and positions BMIT for sustainable growth in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
“This investment is a pivotal step in our strategy to accelerate Malta’s digital infrastructure and reflects our ambition to build a future-ready business that is resilient and diversified, capable of delivering both leading IT solutions and critical digital infrastructure.”
He continued: “BMIT, through its investment in MPC, is strengthening the backbone that supports the country’s connectivity, cloud, as well as the delivery of digital and telecom services. Our focus is on enabling businesses to innovate and grow, underpinned by reliable, secure, and scalable infrastructure.”
Alexia Muscat, CFO of BMIT Technologies plc, added: “This transaction delivers immediate strategic benefits for BMIT and its stakeholders. MPC’s strong financial performance, with €5.6 million in rental income and €2.5 million in net profit for 2024, demonstrates the quality of the assets we are acquiring. The addition of these sites diversifies our income streams and enhances our ability to deliver long-term value to shareholders.”
The acquisition is expected to strengthen BMIT’s market position and operational resilience. By diversifying income sources and securing long-term commitments, BMIT says it will be better positioned to withstand dynamic market conditions and accelerated technological developments, to support future growth.
As a result, the transaction enhances BMIT’s ability to deliver advanced digital services, supporting the evolving needs of businesses and the wider economy.
