BERLIN, 26. April 2023 – RAS Beteiligungs GmbH, LSW GmbH and SGW-Immo-GmbH, three companies around the XXXLutz Group ("XXXLutz"), have successfully completed the acquisition of home24 SE ("home24", the "Company"). A few days earlier, the EU Commission had already given its approval for the acquisition following the antitrust review. 

"We are looking forward to working together with our new shareholder. home24 now has a strong partner at its side to achieve our strategic and operational goals," says CEO Marc Appelhoff. home24 will continue to operate independently and expand its market position as a pure-play home & living e-commerce destination. To this end, also the integration of Butlers will be driven forward in the current year and the marketplace offering will be expanded in a targeted manner.

With the takeover of the majority of shares, the bidders around the XXXLutz Group are aiming for a corresponding position on the company's supervisory board at the next regular general meeting. Furthermore, as announced, the intention is to delist the home24 share from the stock exchange.
