LVMH Takes Control of Bulgari in Merger Deal

 

LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton is joining forces with Italy’s Bulgari SpA — catapulting the French luxury giant’s critical mass in the watch and jewelry category and making the Bulgari family the second largest family shareholder in LVMH after that of chairman and chief executive Bernard Arnault.

LVMH said it concluded an agreement Sunday night that would issue 16.5 million shares in exchange for the 152.5 million Bulgari shares currently held by the jeweler’s founding family.

The French luxury conglomerate agreed to purchase the Bulgari family’s 50.4 percent stake for 1.86 billion euros, or $2.6 billion at current exchange, in stock and will make a tender offer for the rest at 12.25 euros, or $17.12 per share, at a 59.4 percent premium on the closing price of Bulgari shares on March 3. The Rome-based firm will be delisted upon completion of the offer.

As part of the deal, Bulgari ceo Francesco Trapani is to join the executive committee of LVMH and take the management helm of the French group’s watch and jewelry division in the second half of 2011, bumping out incumbent Philippe Pascal, who “will be given new responsibilities within the group,” LVMH stated.

The Bulgari family is also entitled to have two representatives on the LVMH board of directors. Paolo and Nicola Bulgari will remain chairman and vice chairman of the Bulgari board, respectively.

“This is a significant step for our family as well as for Bulgari, occurring at a time of strong revenue growth,” said Trapani. “Our entrance into LVMH will allow Bulgari to reinforce its worldwide growth and to realize noteworthy synergies, in particular in the areas of purchasing and distribution.”
