PRESS RELEASE
EURAZEO SELLS ITS STAKE IN CAPZANINE TO AXA SA
Paris, January 24, 2019 - Eurazeo has announced the sale to AXA of its 22%
stake in Capzanine, an independent European management company specializing in
private investment.
Since entering Capzanine's share capital in October 2015, Eurazeo and AXA have
helped Capzanine accelerate its growth in the debt and equity sectors and
develop international partnerships.
During this period, Capzanine has significantly expanded its business,
increasing assets under management from EUR1.1 billion to EUR2.5 billion.
This transaction is accompanied by the assumption by AXA and other investors of
all Eurazeo commitments in funds managed by Capzanine, excluding an EUR8
million commitment in Capzanine Situations Spéciales.
The transaction amount is approximately EUR82 million. This includes shares in
the management company on which Eurazeo realizes a multiple of just over 3x the
initial investment and fund shares recently subscribed by Eurazeo.
