Czech billionaire Daniel Kretinsky wins his takeover bid for Fnac Darty

Enrique Martinez, CEO of Fnac Darty, expressed satisfaction over Daniel Kretinsky becoming the controlling shareholder with 69.3% of the capital after a public buyout offer. The offer, which values Fnac Darty at over 1 billion euros, is still open until November 25, potentially increasing Kretinsky's stake. This move follows Kretinsky's ongoing investment in Fnac Darty since 2021, where he has supported the company's strategic roadmap towards 2030, focusing on expanding service sales across Europe. His recent activities include co-financing the acquisition of Unieuro, contributing to significant revenue growth.
