Exor and Royal Philips jointly said that they have entered a
relationship agreement, with Exor picking up a 15% stake in Philips
for an undisclosed sum, but worth around 2.58 billion euros ($2.82
billion).
Investment company Exor, which holds stakes in a number of
companies such as car makers Ferrari and Stellantis, said Monday
that its investment is fully supportive of Dutch health-technology
company Philips' leadership, strategy and value creation potential,
and gives it the ability to nominate one member to Philips'
supervisory board.
As of Friday's closing, Philips had a market cap of around
EUR17.18 billion.
Exor said it was committed to being a long-term minority
investor, and while it doesn't plan to buy more shares in Philips
in the short-term, over time the agreement allows for Exor to
increase its participation to a maximum limit of 20% of Philips'
outstanding share capital.
"Exor's investment in Philips, their long-term outlook and
increased focus on healthcare and technology, fit well with our
strategy and substantial value creation potential," Philips Chief
Executive Roy Jakobs said.
