Puig acquisition of Isdin

Overview

Puig has reached a definitive agreement to acquire the remaining 50% stake in the Spanish dermocosmetics brand Isdin from Corporación Químico-Farmacéutica Esteve. The total transaction is valued at 1.2 billion euros, marking the conclusion of a 50-year joint venture between the Puig and Esteve families that began in 1975.

The payment structure involves an initial 900 million euro payment upon closure, followed by a 300 million euro deferred payment scheduled for the first quarter of 2029. Puig intends to finance the deal through internal resources and financial debt. The transaction is expected to finalize by the first quarter of 2027, pending regulatory approvals.

This acquisition is a strategic move for the Barcelona-based beauty group to expand its presence in science-led skincare and dermatology, diversifying beyond its traditional focus on fragrance, fashion, and makeup. Isdin reported net revenues of €647.7 million in 2025.
