Boohoo had £331m cash on their books for the end of year 28 February 2023. Boohoo said in their accounts they were looking for acquisitions.
Boohoo need REVB to grow profits. REVB's revenue is about £200m at present. Boohoo could grow this to £2bn. They did it with Boohoo so they can do it with REVB. Warpaint, the same type of company as REVB make 10% net profit from their revenue. Skincare is where you make the most profit. REVB is omni channel and not just online. REVB is now in Walmart stores from early 2023.
Boohoo grew the Boohoo share from 22p to over £4, 20 times, in 5 years. The reason the Boohoo share price is down is because of the competition from Shein and Temu.
I think Boohoo will buy REVB and will need to pay about 60p a share to get it.
Less than 10% of REVB's shares are held by small private investors. The rest is held by the founders, Boohoo and institutional investors. Boohoo will have to pay at least 60p a share to get REVB.
Plus I would think THG, ASOS and others may well want to buy REVB.
This would cost Boohoo £140m to buy REVB because Boohoo already own nearly 90m REVB shares.
