In April 2024, a consortium led by Apollo Global Management and Rettig Oy Ab, a Finnish family office with 61.8 percent ownership in Purmo, made a voluntary tender offer for shares in Purmo Group. In July, Haier Smart Home made a competing offer with a higher offer price. The deal value in Apollo’s bid was €456 million, whereas Haier’s bid was €577 million. In late July 2024, Purmo announced that despite Haier’s higher bid, Purmo’s board of directors had decided to uphold its recommendation for Apollo’s bid. The board of directors justified its decision by arguing that the risk of non-completion due to potential failure to obtain regulatory approvals for Haier’s bid did not seem to be material, but was not insignificant and was notably higher than in Apollo’s bid. In addition, Purmo’s board of directors noted that it had not received sufficient comfort from the major shareholders that would indicate their support for Haier’s bid. Eventually, the consortium gained ownership of more than 90 percent in Purmo. White & Case acted as the lead legal advisor to Haier.
