Anta Sports Reportedly Exploring Bid for Puma Chinese sportswear maker ANTA Sports Products Limited (SEHK:2020) is among firms exploring a potential takeover of German sportswear brand PUMA SE (XTRA:PUM), Bloomberg News reported on November 27, 2025. Hong Kong-listed Anta has been working with an adviser to evaluate a bid for Puma, and the company may team up with a private equity firm if it decides to move forward with an offer, the Bloomberg report said, citing people familiar with the matter. Other potential bidders could include Chinese sportswear group Li Ning Company Limited (SEHK:2331), which has been discussing financing options with banks as it takes an early look at Puma, according to the report. Puma may also attract interest from Japanese sportswear company ASICS Corporation (TSE:7936), the report said. Anta Sports, Puma, and Asics did not immediately respond to Reuters‘ requests for comment. Li-Ning said in an emailed statement to Reuters that the company “has not engaged in any substantive negotiations or evaluations regarding the transaction mentioned in the news”, adding that the company continues to focus on the growth and development of its brand. Puma’s biggest shareholder Artemis, the privately-owned holding company that controls Gucci owner Kering, has said it is considering all options for its 29% stake, though a source close to the firm told Reuters in September it would not sell at the market value then. Puma’s market valuation is currently at EUR 2,520 million ($2,920 million), according to LSEG data. The Pinault family, which controls Artemis, acquired its Puma stake in 2018 from Kering when the luxury group transformed into a pure luxury player focused on brands like Gucci and Saint Laurent.

Pinault Family Reportedly Seeks Potential Buyers for Puma The Pinault family has reached out to potential buyers of PUMA SE (XTRA:PUM) after the German sports brand lost about half of its market value in the past year, according to people familiar with the matter. The billionaire family, which owns a 29% stake in Frankfurt-listed Puma through Artemis, is working with advisers, possibly with a view to triggering a sale of the company, the people said, asking not to be identified because the deliberations are private. They have reached out to prospective bidders including ANTA Sports Products Limited (SEHK:2020) and Li Ning Company Limited (SEHK:2331) to gauge interest in buying Puma, the people said, adding they have also sounded out other sportswear firms in the US, as well as sovereign wealth funds in the Middle East. Puma shares surged as much as 20% in German trading following the report, the most since October 2001. It has a market value of about EUR 3.3 billion. The family is likely to seek a sizable premium in any deal, the people said. Artemis is also the controlling shareholder of Kering. Deliberations are ongoing and there is no guarantee a transaction will happen, the people said. A spokesperson for Puma declined to comment, while representatives for Artemis, Anta and Li Ning didn't respond to requests seeking comment. Declared Dividend • Aug 25
