100%-lise osaluse omandamine France Style Lingerie S.A.R.L.-is
Message
AS Silvano Fashion Group (“SFG”) sõlmis müügilepingu 100%-lise osaluse omandamiseks Prantsusmaal registreeritud piiratud vastutusega äriühingus France Style Lingerie S.A.R.L. („FSL“). Tehingu maksumus on 2 miljonit eurot (31,3 miljonit Eesti krooni), millest 50% kuulub tasumisele viie tööpäeva jooksul alates tehingu lõpuleviimisest. Tehingu viiakse lõpule lähinädalatel, eeldusel, et pooled täidavad tehingu lõpuleviimise eeltingimused. Ülejäänud 50% ostuhinnast tasutakse hiljemalt 31. detsembril 2008. a. FSL on müügijuhtimisega tegelev valdusühing, millel on muuhulgas oluline müügi- ja brändijuhtimise kogemus naistepesu valdkonnas. FSL omab 49%-list osalust Valgevene äriühingus SOOO «Torgovaja Kompanija Milavitsa» (“TKM”), mis haldab SP ZAO Milavitsa (“Milavitsa”) toodete jaemüügiketti Valgevenes. Milavitsa on SFG tütarühing ja juhtiv pesutootja Valgevenes ja Venemaal. 1. juuli 2008. a seisuga oli TKM-i hallata 26 Milavitsa jaemüügipunkti Valgevenes. Juba enne FSL-i omandamist omab Milavitsa 51%-list osalust TKM-is. FSL-i omandamise tulemusel saab SFG grupil olema TKM-is enamusosalus. Lisaks on FSL-il 25%-line osalus pesutoodete hulgi- ja jaemüügiga tegelevas Venemaa äriühingus ZAO «Stolichnij Torgovij Dom Milavitsa» (“STD”), mille hallata on 30 pesutoodete müügipunkti Venemaal, nendest 27 kaubamärgi Milavitsa all. Sama suurt, 25%-list osalust STD-s omab juba praegu Milavitsa. Ülejäänud 50%-line osalus STD-s jääb selle juhatuse omandisse. FSL-i omandamise kaudu saab SFG laiema juurdepääsu STD kui Venemaa suurima Milavitsa toodete edasimüüja äritegevusele ning saab võimaluse koordineerida selle tegevust ZAO Linret tegevusega - viimane on SFG gruppi kuuluv äriühing, mis tegeleb “Oblicie” and “PTA” toodete edasimüügiga Venemaal. FSL-i omandamine aitab kaasa SFG grupi, eriti Milavitsa toodete levitamisele ja jaemüügile. Omandamine ei oma olulist mõju SFG grupi kogukasumile ja -käibele. FSL-i omandamine kindlustab samuti SFG õigust kasutada kaubamärki „Alisee“ (Milavitsa poolt kasutatav pesutoodete kaubamärk), mida hetkel kasutatakse FSL-ilt saadava litsentsi alusel. FSL-i müüjad on Suurbritannias registreeritud piiratud vastutusega äriühing Fashion Management & Retail Associates Ltd ja hr Remi Pilat. Remi Pilat, SFG juhatuse liige, omab FSL-is 10%-list osalust ja osaleb tehingus müüjana. Remi Pilat on ühtlasi FSL-i juhataja ja jääb sellesse ametisse ka pärast tehingu lõpuleviimist. Kooskõlas müügilepinguga on Remi Pilatil õigus saada oma osaluse eest FSL-is 200,000 eurot, tehingu kogumaksumus on 2 miljonit eurot. Seega on SFG juhatuse liikmel Remi Pilatil isiklik huvi tehingu vastu ning osaluse omandamine Remi Pilatilt on käsitletav tehinguna seotud isikuga. Peale ülaltoodu ei ole SFG juhatuse ja nõukogu liikmetel tehingu osas isiklikku huvi. FSL-i omandamise tehing ei ole oluline tehing Tallinna Börsi reglemendi tähenduses.
