Coty today announced that it has entered into an agreement to transition the Gucci Beauty license back to Kering approximately one year ahead of the original license term, for a total consideration of approximately $400 million, in addition to proceeds from the sale of inventory.   Markus Strobel said: “This agreement delivers a favorable outcome to conclude the Gucci Beauty license, enabling Coty to redeploy capital and focus on our priority brands. It recognizes the substantial value created in Gucci Beauty under our stewardship and enhances our financial flexibility.”   Since 2019 we have grown Gucci Beauty revenues by more than 60%, building world-class global franchises including Gucci Flora, Bloom, Guilty, and Alchemist Garden. This agreement reflects the significant value created under our stewardship.   Proceeds will support debt reduction and continued investment in our core prestige fragrance and beauty portfolio, strengthening our financial flexibility as we focus on our strategic priorities.   Coty will continue to operate Gucci Beauty through at least June 30, 2027.   Read the full announcement here: https://lnkd.in/eQ5BySwQ #Coty #GucciBeauty #Beauty #Fragrance
