You can the brand soon, namely buy. No…Not on ebay…
Traditiemerk Aston Martin is considering, according to Bloomberg a corridor to the fair. As we recently told is the ipo of Ferrari, a ridiculous success. The current owners of the old competitor from England have undoubtedly been given. They hope, therefore, a huge hit by selling their shares in the British brand.
Aston Martin is currently largely in the hands of investment companies Tejara Capital and InvestIndustrial out of Kuwait, respectively, Italy. The two parties think that Aston Martin has around three billion Dollars worth. That seems optimistic, but do not forget that also everyone Sergio laughed when he claimed that Ferrari 12 billion Euros was worth. Sergio was right, because now is the Ferrari on the stock exchange are even higher valued. Bags and Colognes sell pays off well once properly these days.
Former owner Ford sold the British brand at the end of 2007, incidentally, for 925 million Dollars to a group of investors under the leadership of David Ricards of Prodrive. At least, David and his crew paid just 848 million Dollars, but Ford kept a small stake of 77 million Dollars.
In 2012, InvestIndustrial, however, an interest of 37.5 percent in the brand for just 150 million Pounds. Two years ago, it turned out that there is still some extra money invested had to be the old range of models to give an impulse. InvestIndustrial and Tejara stopped at that time together another 275 million Euros extra in Aston for the DBX to be able to develop.
Nevertheless, it would be a nice return for the parties if they manage to Aston Martin for the perfect price to sell. It would be after a dozen or so takers also probably the first time that someone really deserves to the property of the great brand.
