Tiens ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Date: Thu, Apr 7, 2011 at 11:50 PM Subject: Fwd: LVMH fund to aim at Indonesian luxury retail chain Following the WSJ reports on the expansion plan of the world's largest luxury goods conglomerate, LVMH (Louis Vuittion Moet Hennessy) Group in Asia, chats among certain Asian emerging markets fund managers got heated recently. As the LVMH plan in tapping the burgeoning disposable income and rising aspirations of Asians got their way, L Capital Asia, the private equity arm of LVMH for more than $650 million, is fielded in the hunting ground for the best deal in Southeast Asia. One of the recent best deals strucked in November is the purchase of 20 per cent stake in once Singaporean local shoe retailer, Charles & Keith, for more than $ 30 million. Being left still with significant ammo for some other acquisition target, L Capital Asia move has become an intense scrutiny of Asian equities players willing to take the ride. One of the most talked next move including the stake at PT Mitra Adiperkasa Tbk in the darling of emerging market, Indonesia. Owning more than 854 retails stores in 25 major cities of the fourth most populous country and being positioned to become the country upper class lifestyle retailer, Mitra Adiperkasa seems to be more than a perfect target for LVMH. The fact that LVMH is actively pursuing market for its high street brands will just be served by securing some of the prospective Mitra Adiperkasa marketplace. Forty six per cent surge in operating profit for full year 2010 alone of Mitra Adiperkasa must have also added some flavor into LVMH taste. Source close to the potential deal and Mitra Adiperkasa described the prospective encounter between LVMH and Mitra would bring an excellent synergy on mutual business of both interest. While, LVMH will gain more massive presence in the awakening giant of emerging market Indonesia through Mitra Adiperkasa marketplace, Mitra on the other hand will also benefit from the possible involvement of LVMH influence in the board in expanding some key high brands and luxury outlets selling throughout the country. No further specific mentioning on the Size of ownership at offer nor fund range to be deployed. source: Retail M&A Chatter
