(AOF) – Showroomprivé has been informed of the completion on August 31, 2022 of the acquisition by David Dayan of the balance of the stake held by Thierry Petit (directly and through TP Invest) in the capital of the Company, i.e. 13,932 .963 SRP Group shares.
This acquisition was carried out by way of an off-market transaction at the price of one euro per share, financed by means of a loan taken out by Ancelle in the amount of 10 million euros and, for the balance, carried out by means of exchange for shares in an unlisted company in which TP Invest and Ancelle both hold a stake.
This acquisition was the subject of a decision by the Autorité des marchés financiers to waive the filing of a public offer published on August 1, 2022.
In accordance with the agreements announced on June 21, 2022, this acquisition constitutes the last part of the sale of SRP Groupe shares by Thierry Petit, following the purchase of 4 million shares by SRP Groupe from TP Invest at the price of one euro per share and the acquisition by Eric Sitruk at the same price of 3 million shares of the company from TP Invest.

The serious European adjustment of the Internet giants
An agreement was reached on March 24 on the supervision of Internet giants, with new legislation on digital markets, the Digital Markets Act (DMA). This text aims to regulate the anti-competitive practices of the main players. With the DMA, the European Commission sets a framework to be respected, the sector now being subject to regulations similar to those of the energy, banking or telecommunications sectors. The scale of fines has also been adapted to the economic power of the players: in the event of an infringement, they may represent 6% to 20% of global turnover. In the event of a repeat offence, business transfers may be imposed. On the other hand, in the United States, the regulatory process has still not succeeded despite the authorities’ determination.
