Case Study: How Private Equity Helped a Multi-Business Firm Improve Its Performance
One example of how private equity can help a multi-business firm improve its performance is the case of Newell Brands. Newell Brands is a global consumer products company with a portfolio of brands that includes Sharpie, Paper Mate, and Rubbermaid. In 2016, Newell Brands was struggling to grow sales and improve margins. The company's stock price had been declining for years, and the company was facing increasing competition from online retailers.
In 2017, Newell Brands hired a private equity firm to help improve its performance. The private equity firm worked with Newell Brands to develop a new strategic plan. The plan focused on improving operational efficiency, growing sales, and improving margins. The private equity firm also provided Newell Brands with funding to invest in new growth initiatives.
The new strategic plan has been a success. Newell Brands has improved its operational efficiency, grown sales, and improved margins. The company's stock price has also rebounded. In 2021, Newell Brands reported its highest sales and profits in the company's history.
The case of Newell Brands is just one example of how private equity can help a multi-business firm improve its performance. Private equity firms have a deep understanding of the factors that drive business performance, a track record of success in improving the performance of portfolio companies, and the ability to provide funding to help companies invest in new growth initiatives.
