Coty Completes P&G Merger

2016-10-18 11:25:59


It’s a new dawn at 
Coty. With its merger now complete with P&G, the company takes on not only 41 brands to greatly expand its beauty portfolio and standing in the industry, but a new CEO as well.
 
The acquisition of Procter & Gamble’s fine fragrance, color cosmetics, salon professional and hair color and certain styling businesses, now makes Coty the third-largest beauty company in the world, with approximately $9 billion in revenue. As a combined company, Coty will also hold the No. 1 position in fragrances, and No. 2 and 3 positions in salon hair and color cosmetics, respectively.
 
As previously announced, following the completion of the merger, Camillo Pane is now the new chief executive officer of Coty. Commenting, Pane said, “It is my great privilege to take over the reins of leadership at such a transformational moment. Today marks a new chapter in Coty’s rich heritage. With this merger, we have brought together a powerful portfolio of much loved beauty brands and some of the world’s most talented people in beauty and consumer goods. I believe this combination, together with our distinctive entrepreneurial culture, focused and lean operating structure, and efficient earnings model, will enable Coty to be a challenger in the beauty industry. We aim to relentlessly pursue superior products and solutions, build brands that inspire and enable consumers to celebrate and liberate their own individual beauty.”
 
Bart Becht, chairman of Coty’s board of directors, said, “Coty is now better positioned as we aim to become, over time, a global industry leader by being a clear challenger in beauty, delighting our consumers and creating long term shareholder value. I am confident that we now have a much improved team, structure and culture to make the vision of this merger a reality. I look forward to continuing to work with the new leadership team in my role as Chairman to drive Coty to in-market success and profitable growth.”
