CPC Europe Fund III Announces AS Adventure Group Acquisition

Carson Private Capital Europe Fund III, LP has announced its participation in the 100% acquisition of AS Adventure Group by Lion Capital (London) in a transaction valued at €263 million. AS Adventure is the fourth platform investment for Carson Private Capital Europe Fund III.

AS Adventure is a leading specialty retailer of branded outdoor equipment and clothing with a total of 90 stores in Belgium, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.

The Company has an impressive track record of growth since its inception in 1995, and a distinctive retail concept that capitalizes on the European consumer trend towards a healthier lifestyle focused on outdoors leisure activity. AS Adventure is the #1 market leader in Belgium and the Netherlands, and the #2 leader in the UK.

Lion Capital brings a significant breadth of experience investing in specialty retailing formats (Jimmy Choo and La Senza), and is uniquely positioned to unlock the business's vast potential for further growth, both within its current store portfolio and through further penetration of its core markets through new store openings.
