KNDS will proceed with its IPO preparations for a summer listing despite requests from Berlin to delay the transaction. The tank manufacturer is maintaining its original schedule, which narrows the timeframe for Germany to acquire a pre-IPO stake. This move forces a decision on national security oversight as Europe accelerates its defense spending.
