Shares in Puma SE fell in early trade Tuesday after French
luxury-goods conglomerate Kering sold a 5.9% stake in the company
for roughly 655.6 million euros ($772.7 million).
The French company retains a 9.8% stake in Puma following the
sale, which took place via an accelerated bookbuilding process.
At 0728 GMT shares in Puma traded 3.1% lower at EUR75.68, after
falling 3.7% shortly after the open.
Kering sold the stake in the German sporting-goods company to
investment company Artemis, it said Tuesday. Artemis holds a stake
of just over 40% in Kering.
"Kering and Artemis have entered into a lock-up agreement
relating to Puma's shares, which is expected to end after a period
of 90 calendar days from the settlement date of the shares," Kering
said.
