Livingstone Partners a agi en tant que conseiller exclusif en fusions-acquisitions de <\/strong>Inspecs Group plc<\/strong><\/a> (\u00ab Inspecs \u00bb) pour l’acquisition du principal lunetier allemand <\/strong>Eschenbach Holding GmbH<\/strong><\/a> (\u00ab Eschenbach \u00bb), une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 en portefeuille d’<\/strong>Equistone Partners Europe<\/strong><\/a> (\u00ab Equistone \u00bb), ainsi que pour le financement en fonds propres et en dette de la transaction. <\/strong><\/p>

Fond\u00e9e en 1913, Eschenbach est l’un des leaders allemands de l’optique et de la basse vision. La soci\u00e9t\u00e9 propose des montures optiques et des lunettes de soleil et est pr\u00e9sente dans toute l’Europe ainsi qu’aux \u00c9tats-Unis. Eschenbach allie un design prim\u00e9 \u00e0 une qualit\u00e9 \u00e9prouv\u00e9e, qu’il s’agisse de lunettes d’exception, d’aides visuelles ou de jumelles. Cet engagement en faveur de la qualit\u00e9 et du design se traduit par les \u00ab Red Dot Awards \u00bb et les \u00ab German Design Awards \u00bb d\u00e9cern\u00e9s aux collections de lunettes d’Eschenbach au cours des trois derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es. Les marques d’Eschenbach comprennent Marc O’Polo, Humphrey\u2019s, Mini Eyewear, Titanflex, Freigeist, Tura et Ted Baker. En 2019, le chiffre d’affaires du groupe Eschenbach a atteint 143 millions d’euros.<\/p>

Fond\u00e9 au Royaume-Uni en 1988 par Robin Totterman, Inspecs est un concepteur, fabricant et distributeur multinationale de montures optiques et de verres. Le groupe produit une large gamme de montures optiques, solaires et de s\u00e9curit\u00e9, sous sa propre marque ainsi qu’en OEM. Inspecs est ainsi l’un des rares fournisseurs en mesure d’offrir \u00e0 ses clients (parmi lesquels figurent des cha\u00eenes internationales d’optique et de grande distribution, des distributeurs et des opticiens ind\u00e9pendants) une offre int\u00e9gr\u00e9e. Le r\u00e9seau de distribution de l’entreprise s’\u00e9tend sur 80 pays, compte environ 30 000 points de vente et dispose de filiales au Royaume-Uni, au Portugal, en Scandinavie, aux \u00c9tats-Unis et en Chine, ainsi que de sites de production au Vietnam, en Chine, au Royaume-Uni et en Italie.<\/p>

En se rapprochant d’Eschenbach, Inspecs poursuit avec force le renforcement de sa position sur le march\u00e9 international de l’optique.<\/p>

\u00ab Le rapprochement de ces deux acteurs majeurs du secteur donnera naissance au 6e groupe d’optique mondial et permettra au nouvel ensemble d’accro\u00eetre sa p\u00e9n\u00e9tration sur des march\u00e9s cl\u00e9s au niveau mondial, tout en diversifiant nos portefeuilles clients et produits combin\u00e9s \u00bb,<\/em> d\u00e9clare Chris Kay, Directeur Financier d’Inspecs Plc.<\/strong> \u00ab L’\u00e9quipe de Livingstone a jou\u00e9 un r\u00f4le d\u00e9terminant dans le bon d\u00e9roulement de l’op\u00e9ration. Leurs conseils, leur accompagnement et leur expertise ont \u00e9t\u00e9 essentiels pour mener \u00e0 bien la transaction et les n\u00e9gociations. \u00bb<\/em><\/p>

Michael Westhoven<\/strong><\/a>, Associ\u00e9 chez Livingstone D\u00fcsseldorf<\/strong>, commente : \u00ab Apr\u00e8s son introduction en bourse en f\u00e9vrier de cette ann\u00e9e, nous sommes tr\u00e8s heureux d’accompagner \u00e0 nouveau Inspecs dans cette \u00e9tape d\u00e9cisive pour devenir l’un des premiers groupes mondiaux du secteur de l’optique et sommes impatients de suivre le d\u00e9veloppement futur de l’entreprise. Selon nous, Inspecs et Eschenbach repr\u00e9sentent le mariage parfait de deux acteurs id\u00e9alement compl\u00e9mentaires. \u00bb<\/em><\/p>

La transaction Inspecs est la troisi\u00e8me r\u00e9alis\u00e9e avec succ\u00e8s par Livingstone dans le secteur de l’optique, apr\u00e8s celles d’ic! Berlin<\/a> et Mykita.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":95875,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"client-type":[],"region":[],"sector":[],"service":[],"transaction-type":[],"class_list":["post-92630","transaction","type-transaction","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"team_members":[93344],"date":"20201123","client_type":3158,"type":[3248],"region":[3175,3181,3174],"services":[3185,3184],"sectors":[3270,3271],"related_transactions":"","related_testimonials":[93749],"contacts":""},"yoast_head":"\nLivingstone
