PedersoliGattai in the financing of Fulgard’s acquisition by Seven2
The acquisition of the entire share capital of Fulgard by Seven2’s midcap private equity fund (formerly Apax Partners) from current shareholders, including Argos Wityu and minority managers, has been completed.
The transaction included issuing a senior secured bond by a special purpose vehicle controlled by Seven2 to finance the acquisition and refinance existing debt. The bond was subscribed to by funds managed by Partners Group and LGT Capital Partners.
Partners Group and LGT Capital Partners were advised by PedersoliGattai, with a team led by Gian Luca Coggiola (partner) and Davide Stracquadanio (associate). Tax aspects were handled by Alban Zaimaj (senior counsel) and Valentina Buzzi (counsel), under the supervision of Cristiano Garbarini (partner).
PedersoliGattai also assisted Banca Finint, acting as Issuing Agent, Paying Agent, Security Agent, and Noteholders’ Representative, with a team led by Emanuela Campari Bernacchi (partner) and Carlotta Antonelli and Francesca Scarabello (associates).
