| Beauty M&A may be slow Stateside, but global IPO season is about to kick off — again.
Initial public offerings were rife in the European beauty space in 2024. Galderma Group, Puig and Douglas Group all floated, with two of those ultimately ranking among the year’s largest IPOs.
Now, 2025 is gearing up to be active on the global stage, with listings in countries such as Saudi Arabia, Australia and South Korea. Helping fuel the momentum are improving economic confidence, plus the dearth of investments or acquisitions on the part of large strategics and private-equity funds, particularly in the U.S. In today's WWD, European Beauty Editor Jennifer Weil looks at who could IPO in 2025 and what lessons they could learn from last year's crop.
Also in today's WWD, TikTok darling Sacheu Beauty lands investment and Urban Skin RX is acquired. — Kathryn Hopkins, Senior Beauty Editor, WWD and Beauty Inc |
