Following the completion of the transaction, the company will continue to be led by Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

“Over the last three decades, Skechers has experienced tremendous

innovation across the entire Skechers organization, in-demand
comfort-focused product offering, and loyal partners. With a proven
track record, Skechers is entering its next chapter in partnership with
the global investment firm 3G Capital. Given their remarkable history of
facilitating the success of some of the most iconic global consumer
businesses, we believe this partnership will support our talented team
as they execute their expertise to meet the needs of our consumers and
customers while enabling the company’s long-term growth.”
3G Capital will pay $63.00 per share in cash for Skechers, representing a
premium of 30% to the company’s 15-day volume-weighted average stock
price; and will offer all existing Skechers stockholders an alternative mixed consideration option.
