Gide advised Lynxeo Group on its acquisition by Latour Capital from Nexans

Gide advised the management of Lynxeo, a major player in technical expertise and cutting-edge technologies developing advanced cabling solutions for major industrial projects, on its acquisition by Latour Capital from Nexans.

Lynxeo is an entity resulting from the operational separation of Nexans’ specialized industrial cable activities, which was formalized in November 2024. With 2,000 employees and annual sales of more than €700 million, Lynxeo is positioned as a major player in the supply of cabling solutions for key industrial sectors such as rolling stock, rail infrastructure, industrial automation, shipbuilding, wind power, aerospace and medical equipment. This strategic autonomy aims to strengthen its capacity for innovation and respond to current energy and industrial challenges, while consolidating its global presence in Europe, Asia and the United States.

The Gide team, composed of Caroline Lan, partner, with Manon Volle-Lenoir and Léa Boutin, associates, advised Lynxeo on the corporate aspects of the management investment; Paul de France, partner, with Charles Ghuysen, associate, on tax aspects, and Pauline Manet, counsel; with Johanna Degraeve, associate, on employment law aspects. Callisto also advised the management of Lynxeo on the financial aspects of the transaction.

Latour Capital, an investment fund, was advised by Paul Hastings on the acquisition of Lynxeo together with Weil Gotshal on the finance aspects, and Bredin Prat advised Nexans.
