CVC Capital Partners has entered into a deal with the owner of Hempel to acquire a 30% stake in the Danish protective coatings supplier, according to a company statement on Wednesday.
The transaction, whose value was undisclosed, is expected to close in the second half of the year, subject to regulatory approval, the statement added. The Hempel Foundation, parent company of Hempel, will continue to be a majority shareholder following the deal.
CVC has invested in Hempel through its Strategic Opportunities platform, which was established to invest in businesses over longer periods that may not suit a traditional private equity mandate.
The enterprise values of the companies in which the strategy invests are typically between 1 billion euros ($1 billion) and 5 billion euros ($5.3 billion) and more, with a longer holding period of around six to 15 years, according to CVC’s website.
“The Hempel Foundation has been the sole owner of Hempel for 75 years and has an ongoing commitment to secure Hempel’s financial base and ensure its future growth. After careful consideration, the Hempel Foundation has decided to welcome a minority investor that brings both unique experience and capital to support Hempel’s accelerated growth journey,” said Richard Sand, Chair of the Hempel Foundation Board of Directors in the announcement.
This investment will aid Hempel in developing new technology and executing potential acquisition opportunities, per the deal announcement.
Founded in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1915, Hempel is a global supplier of coatings and paints in the protective, marine, decorative, container, and yacht industries.
CVC is a Luxembourg-based private equity and investment advisory firm with approximately 186 billion euros ($199 billion) of assets under management.
Last month, the buyout firm went public on Amsterdam’s stock exchange after a long-delayed listing process. CVC’s shares soared on debut, amassing over $2 billion for the company and its investors.
