Authentic Brands Group
Acquired: Boardriders
In March, Authentic Brands Group made a binding offer to purchase action sports and lifestyle company Boardriders, then signed a definitive agreement to purchase the company in April. The full portfolio— featuring Quiksilver, Billabong, Roxy, RVCA, DC Shoes, VonZipper, Honolua, and Element—will join Authentic’s roster of iconic brands. As a global brand development, marketing, and entertainment platform, New York-based Authentic represents over 40 brands, including Reebok, Ted Baker, and Aéropostale. The acquisition will accelerate the expansion of Boardriders’ shop-in-shops, branded retail stores, and global wholesale and e-commerce. The deal is expected to be finalized in Q3 2023 and is forecast to boost systemwide annual retail sales to over $27.6 billion.
