Beauty is now in \u2018the eye of the acquirers\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

The M&A market for beauty products has reached a tipping point – \u2018acquire, or be acquired\u2019. Consolidation is being driven by large strategic players, who are systematically acquiring smaller players as they emerge. Private equity is also ramping up investments and boosting valuations. The \u2018Global 30\u2019 enjoy a massive buying advantage over the rest of the market, which is made up of mainly small businesses with specialized offerings. These giant groups have a genuine need to add growth assets to their portfolios, and are eager buyers of innovation, creativity, potential for geographic expansion, and digital and social connections. (They struggle to foster innovation themselves, and rarely create brands from the ground up any more.) Meanwhile midcaps are acquiring for scale and new capabilities in related categories that can be added to product portfolios.<\/p>\n

Key insights:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
    \n
  • Growing market: The global beauty market grew by 5% in 2016 and is growing at a 10-year CAGR of 4%, thanks to growth in emerging markets and demand for \u2018premium\u2019. The hottest segment is currently make-up, which grew by 8.4% in 2016. Other trends to watch out for include \u2018natural & organic\u2019, \u2018active beauty\u2019, and \u2018sustainable choice + ultra performance\u2019.<\/li>\n
  • Market power is lopsided: the \u2018Global 30\u2019 beauty companies represent some 63% of the global market, while the rest is made up of mainly small actors (ie. brands). This has created a ripe environment for deal-making and market consolidation, as small players often require growth capital, while the largest players tend to lack the necessary innovation, creativity and digital-media savvy of the younger upstarts.<\/li>\n
  • The M&A market is booming , supported by large strategic groups, but also by midcaps and increasingly private equity. Europe is seeing the most deals, with 36% of all worldwide transactions in the last five years.<\/li>\n
  • Deal drivers : Deals are being designed to broaden product portfolios in specific segments, and to access new customers and geographies. The dynamic make-up segment is highly sought after, and brands with large followings on social media (You Tube, Instagram). The rise of the \u2018influencer\u2019 is a game-changer, as these online stars with millions of followers now have the power to make or break brands.<\/li>\n
  • Valuations for dedicated beauty players are generally high \u2013 the listed players are averaging 13.3x EBITDA, while the Investec Transaction Database shows that double-digit multiples are common in the midcap space, with mid-teens and higher possible for best-in-class brands.<\/li>\n
  • Private equity has become an active market participant, on the lookout for attractive growth categories (eg. natural & organic), and also consolidation plays within mature market segments \u2013 eg. in France, the fragrances segment is widely fragmented, and the industry is increasingly seeking partners with growth capital.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
