\n\tPARIS \u2014 The Arnault family has outlined a plan to simplify the companies through which it controls LVMH Mo\u00ebt Hennessy Louis Vuitton to ensure its continued control over the world\u2019s biggest luxury group.<\/p>\n
\n\tCompressing a chain of holding structures into just one entity, the project involves merging the Arnault family holding company Agache with its operational investment subsidiary Financi\u00e8re Agache.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe resulting entity would then merge into Christian Dior, which holds the bulk of the family\u2019s voting rights and equity stake in LVMH, Christian Dior said in a statement on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
\n\tChristian Dior would be converted into a limited joint stock partnership and be renamed Agache.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe new company would hold a direct 49.76 percent stake in LVMH, representing 65.55 percent of its voting rights, with LVMH chairman and chief executive officer Bernard Arnault continuing as managing partner of the surviving entity.<\/p>\n
\n\tAs a result of the change, the Arnault family would launch a cash tender offer for the Christian Dior shares it does not already own, representing about 2.44 percent of the company and valued at about 1.63 billion euros.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe transactions would require shareholder and regulatory approval, including from France\u2019s financial markets authority, with votes expected in December and the tender offer potentially opening in the first quarter of 2027.<\/p>\n
\n\tThere would be no forced buyout: shareholders could either sell their shares in the offer or remain invested in the newly created Agache, listed on the Paris Stock Exchange.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe Arnault family has taken advantage of a market slump to snap up shares in the group, which owns more than 75 brands including Louis Vuitton, Dior, Tiffany & Co., Sephora and Mo\u00ebt & Chandon. In February, it crossed the threshold of 50 percent ownership.<\/p>\n
\n\tLVMH shares have fallen by more than 38 percent this year, causing the group to lose its crown as France\u2019s most valuable company to L\u2019Or\u00e9al, and pushing Bernard Arnault off the top 10 of the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.<\/p>\n
