2014 was a mixed bag for consumer goods and retail M&A. On one
hand, the retail space experienced a string of billion dollar buyouts,
including Signet’s $1.4Bn acquisition of Zale’s Corp., Men’s Warehouse’s $1.8Bn
purchase of Jos. A. Bank, as well as the $6Bn sale of Neiman Marcus to the
Canada Pension Plan Investment Board. Conversely, aggregate private equity
investment in B2C companies dropped from $107.9Bn in 2013 to $95.2Bn in 2014.
How will these trends impact the deal space in 2015?
Please tune into Merrill DataSite’s
upcoming webinar, where we’ll discuss the health of the consumer goods M&A
sector and trends for 2015: http://bit.ly/1CbLpRX
