In June 2000 Merloni announced the acquisition of a 100% interest in Stinol for US$119 million. Renaissance Capital acted as financial advisor to the vendor. The transaction price implied an EV/Revenues multiple for Stinol in excess of 1.0 which exceeded Merloni’s own EV/Revenues ratio and that of other comparable Western producers.
Renaissance Capital facilitated all aspects of the transaction, including the global search for a strategic acquirer, company valuation, due diligence, deal structuring, sale negotiations, and coordination of all legal documentation.
