Soho House to Go Private in $2.7 Billion Deal
The $2.7 billion deal includes a 17.8% premium per share and aims to support Soho House's growth and financial recovery after share price decline since its 2021 IPO.
- On August 18, 2025, Soho House & Co announced it will be taken private in a $2.7 billion transaction spearheaded by MCR Hotels, a company based in New York.
- The move follows growing financial struggles despite revenue growth, with Soho forming a special board committee less than three years after its 2021 IPO.
- Apollo Global Management is backing the transaction with over $700 million in combined equity and debt funding, Ashton Kutcher will join the company's board, and the main founders will maintain majority ownership.
- Shareholders will receive $9 per share, a 17.8% premium over the $7.64 closing price on Friday, causing shares to rise as much as 16% in premarket trading.
- This transaction indicates investor confidence in Soho’s future and ends a turbulent market period that erased nearly half the company’s value post-IPO.
