SPAIN – CAI-backed Imaginarium to list on MAB
Children's toy retailer Imaginarium, backed by the Caja de Ahorros Inmaculada private equity arm, CAI Desarrollo Empresarial, is due to list on the alternative market in Madrid, the Mercado Alternativo Bursátil (MAB).
The flotation follows a capital increase among existing shareholders.
The shares have been priced at EUR 4.94 -EUR 5.79 which would give the Saragossa-based toy manufacturer a market cap of EUR 84-98.5m. The offer targets qualified investors in Andorra, the UK, Germany and Portugal. The deal would also see the CAI divest its 19% stake in the company.
In July 2002, the private equity arm of luxury group LVMH, L-Capital, acquired a 40% stake in Imaginarium's holding company, Step Two. A further 25% stake was acquired by 3i. Both 3i and L-Capital exited their investments in a EUR 80m buyback in 2006.
