TPG mulls listing of Grohe Group

A flotation could see the business, which TPG bought from BC Partners back in May 2004, valued at as much as €2.2bn.

TPG acquired the business in a €1.5bn secondary buyout from BC Partners in 2004, with an €800m debt package provided by Citigroup, Credit Suisse and Deutsche Bank. BC Partners delisted the Germany-based company in July 1999 for €1.13bn.

Grohe Group provides sanitary fixtures for bathrooms and kitchens, including taps, shower heads and toilet flush mechanisms. It is thought to have revenues of about €1.16bn.
