Mike Ashley Takes 5.77% Stake in Puma and Confirms Role in JD Sports Shakeup Frasers Group founder Mike Ashley has become Puma’s second largest shareholder with a 5.77% stake, according to a March stock-exchange filing.
In a rare interview, Ashley openly acknowledged that he aimed to unseat former JD Sports chair Peter Cowgill, confirming his active involvement in UK sports retail power dynamics.
Ashley’s move into Puma comes against the backdrop of his long-running rivalry with JD Sports and its leadership.
This new stake brings a high-profile, highly competitive retail investor into Puma’s shareholder base, which could influence how the company thinks about wholesale relationships, distribution and brand positioning over time.
For investors, a key watchpoint is whether Ashley seeks greater influence or collaboration with Puma’s management, since shifts in governance or distribution strategy can affect the balance of risks and opportunities around the brand. Reported Earnings • May 02

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.

PUMA Unveils The Future of Fast for Tokyo World Athletics Championships 2025 PUMA has revealed The Future of Fast - a bold vision for innovation that will be brought to life through a series of athlete events and cutting-edge experiences in the Japanese capital. Featuring unique testimony from the fastest athletes in the world, and data-backed product analysis from the PUMA Innovation team, these moments will celebrate the athletes trailblazing their sports, and evidence how PUMA is collaborating with them to pioneer The Future of Fast. The NITRO™? LAB is home to a futuristic lineup of road running, and track & field concept cars, a fully functioning running economy lab, as well as newly released colourways of PUMA's fastest racingay products - including the most talked about racingay shoe of the year, Fast-R NITRO™? Elite 3. The NITRO®? LAB will open on Saturday, 13 September from 10:00 to 16:00. Address: 5-chome-4-48 Minamiaoyama, Minato City, Tokyo 107-0062, Japan. Fans will also be able to witness The Future of Fast in real time, as more than 140 PUMA athletes get set to compete in Tokyo. They include the reigning women's 100m Olympic Champion Julien Alfred, men's 400m hurdles world record holder Karsten Warholm, 13-time pole vault world record holder Mondo Duplantis, Japanese print-sensation Hakim Sani-Brown and reigning women's high jump world champion Yaroslava Mahuchikh. There will also be significant PUMA representation on the road, with German national record holder Amanal Petros leading the charge in the marathon, reaffirming PUMA's commitment to speed and performance across multiple disciplines. Since 1948, PUMA has been driven by innovation--working with athletes to develop new technologies and products that push the limits of speed and help them achieve their personal bests, on the world's biggest stages. This heritage has a significant connection to Japan, as the location of PUMA's first world record matching 100m print by Heinz Futterer (1954), and where the legendary Abebe Bikila became the first person to win back-to-back Olympic marathons (1960 & 1964). PUMA continues to build a legacy of firsts, shaping sports culture, and creating iconic moments in sports history - of which are certain to witness more over the coming weeks in Tokyo.

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.

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of German stocks, typically moving 8.1% a week.

It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Paying a dividend despite being loss-making.
