Axa PE given green light for Club Med takeover
French regulatory body AMF has authorised Axa Private Equity and Fosun's joint bid for listed French holiday resorts group Club Méditerranée.
The takeover offer will run from 17 July to 30 August. As announced earlier, the bidders will offer €17.5 per share, which would value Club Med at around €554m.
Axa PE and Chinese conglomerate Fosun initially planned on offering of €17 per share to Club Med shareholders – they later revised their bid to €17.5, an offer welcomed by the company's board at the end of June.
Axa PE and Fosun have been shareholders in Club Med for two and three years respectively, holding a combined 19% stake in the business prior to the deal.
