Details
Jamieson Wellness announced that following an unsolicited inbound proposal to acquire the company, its Board has initiated a
process to enhance shareholder value and is in discussions with interested parties relating to a potential transaction. There is no
assurance that the process will result in any transaction and the company does not intend to comment further until required.
Implications
Fundamentally, we have been impressed by management's execution across each of the company's key markets since we assumed
research coverage of Jamieson Wellness in late 2024. However, despite solid execution, growing momentum across the U.S. and
China through 2025 into 2026 and structural tailwinds for VMS, the valuation has been largely stagnant at ~10x-11x FTM EV/
EBITDA, below the company's long-term average of 13.5x and precedent transactions on average in the mid-teens. A potential
sale of the company has been a key investor debate, and given the company’s recent execution and valuation levels, we are not
overly surprised by the news, which we view as positive for the shares at current levels. In our view, the pool of potential acquirers
likely includes both private equity and strategics and for context, the shares are currently trading at 10.8x FTM EV/EBITDA (each
multiple point for JWEL equates to approximately $4.50/share).
