DGAP-Adhoc: GERRY WEBER acquires franchised HOUSES of GERRY WEBER in Norway

Gerry Weber International AG / Key word(s): Miscellaneous 03.06.2014 07:34 Dissemination of an Ad hoc announcement according to § 15 WpHG, transmitted by DGAP - a company of EQS Group AG. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ad-hoc release pursuant to section 15 WpHG GERRY WEBER acquires franchised HOUSES of GERRY WEBER in Norway (Halle/Westphalia, 3 June 2014) GERRY WEBER International AG has agreed to acquire eight well established HOUSES of GERRY WEBER as well as 17 multi-label stores in Norway. Under the transaction structure, GERRY WEBER will acquire 100 percent ownership of the Norwegian company operating the stores. The purchase price amounts to a total of NOK 115.75 million (approx. EUR 14 million). In addition, the parties have agreed an earn-out clause providing for a maximum of NOK 20 million in extraordinary payments subject to the attainment of certain pre-defined sales and earnings targets in the financial year 2018. The first franchisee-operated HOUSE of GERRY WEBER was opened in Norway in 2005 and the retail concept was steadily expanded in the ensuing years. All eight stores acquired as well as the 17 multi-label stores operated under the "Chantal" name are in prime locations in Norway. The acquired companies will be fully consolidated by the GERRY WEBER Group as of 1 June 2014. As of this date the vertically integrated stores will fully count towards the Group's Retail segment. Local management will remain in the competent hands of our proven Norwegian partner who will continue to support our ongoing expansion in Norway. This transaction is consistent with the GERRY WEBER Group's strategy of expanding its own Retail operations in selected core markets across Europe. "We see substantial potential for our three brand families - GERRY WEBER, TAIFUN and SAMOON - in the Norwegian market. Between 10 and 15 new HOUSES of GERRY WEBER are to be opened in Norway over the coming years. During this time we will also expand the GERRY WEBER spaces in the acquired multi-label stores and assess their potential for conversion into branded GERRY WEBER Group stores," says Ralf Weber, the Managing Board member in charge of Retail operations at GERRY WEBER International AG.
