Media conglomerate Vivendi and investment firm Amber Capital, the two largest shareholders in French media group Lagardere , have formed a pact to seek boardroom seats at Lagardere.
Lagardere posted a first-half loss in July and for several years has been tussling with hedge fund Amber Capital, which has criticised the firm’s strategy and performance, while Vivendi recently swooped in to buy shares in Lagardere.
“Vivendi and Amber Capital, respectively the first and second largest shareholders of Lagardere with 23.5% and 20% of the share capital, will initiate steps in this framework with Lagardere to each seek a minority Supervisory Board representation of three members for Amber Capital and one member for Vivendi,” Vivendi said.
Its portfolio of businesses, including publishing house Hachette and travel retail operations, has nevertheless attracted the attention of some of France’s richest investors.
