Report: Apax Considers Bid For Adidas

Adidas could be the next activewear company to be scooped up by a private equity firm. Apax Partners Worldwide - which owns Tommy Hilfiger – is reportedly considering an investment into the German brand.

The takeover rumor follows the announcement last week that PPR is making a $7.2 billion bid for Puma.

Blacks’s Take: Any cash injection into Adidas should first be focused on helping the company integrate its 2005 buy of Reebok.
