Private Equity Firms Reportedly Not Interested in Domain The $1.7 billion Domain Holdings Australia Limited (ASX:DHG is said to have been shopped to private equity firms far and wide to test their interest in taking a stake in the business.
None of them is keen, sources say. One interesting name that was mentioned among the possible suitors is John Wylie's Tanarra Capital Pty Ltd, which is also a shareholder in Nine Entertainment, Domain's majority shareholder. Tanarra sources have denied that it considered a purchase of the online real estate group, of which Nine Entertainment owns a 60% stake, despite speculation suggesting otherwise. Two private equity firms that have weighed a possible buyout of the country's second largest online real estate group are TPG Capital, L.P. and KKR & Co. Inc. (NYSE:KKR). Tillkännagivande • Feb 13

TPG Capital Reportedly Eyeing Domain Group Corporate activity appears to be ramping up among Australasian online classified advertising businesses, with suggestions TPG Capital, L.P. is eyeing Domain Holdings Australia Limited (ASX:DHG). Domain Group working on options for the Australian-listed business is Jefferies Australia. There has been talk its 60% owner Nine Entertainment Co. Holdings Limited (ASX:NEC) is understood to be weighing a move to privatise Domain with help from private equity. However, Nine is yet to appoint a chief executive, so there's not yet any key decision maker that a private equity firm can negotiate with. The US-based private equity firm TPG Capital is said to be back looking at the business after it approached the Fairfax board in 2017 with an offer to buy Domain and the key newspaper mastheads for $2.29 billion. Perhaps Hellman & Friedman LLC is also once again casting its eye over the company. Tillkännagivande • Oct 25
Nine Reportedly Looks to Bring Domain Back to the Fold in Bid to Diversify Earnings After canvassing the market for buyers for years without success, Nine Entertainment Co. Holdings Limited (ASX:NEC)'s next move could be to bring Domain Group (Domain Holdings Australia Limited (ASX:DHG)) back in house to diversify the business away from the volatile earnings of its television unit, sources say. DataRoom revealed this month that New York-based private equity firm Kohlberg Kravis Roberts is understood to have explored a buyout proposal for the $2 billion Domain in 2021, when the pair were also looking to partner to buy Property Exchange Australia. While a new Nine chief executive is yet to be appointed, sources are not ruling out mergers and acquisitions being on the agenda when former boss Mike Sneesby's replacement is eventually named. Acting CEO Matt Stanton is now shaping up well for the role and has impressed directors. While Mr. Sneesby was at the helm, it is understood that he had aspirations to venture into outdoor advertising. Mr. Sneesby looked at buying Quadrant's outdoor advertising business QMS, and he was keen to buy oOh!media, but the share price was too expensive. It is now far cheaper. There's questions whether oOh!media provides insight into its profit guidance amid what market experts believe are deteriorating conditions and at a time the group has been underperforming some peers. oOh!media's market value is $647 million and its $1.22 share price has never recovered from the pandemic. Nine is understood to be weighing a move to privatise Domain with help from private equity. Nine bought Fairfax around 2018 in a deal at the time worth about $2.1 billion but before that, in response to Fairfax fielding private equity approaches, Fairfax demerged Domain and retained 60%. Domain's share price is at the same level it was four years ago. Jefferies Australia is Nine's adviser. Tillkännagivande • Sep 19
