CVC Capital Partners has agreed to sell Japanese personal care company FineToday to Bain Capital for approximately 200 billion yen (US$1.29 billion). The deal follows FineToday’s failed IPO attempt in October, which did not meet CVC's valuation expectations. FineToday, created in 2021 from Shiseido's personal-care unit, markets brands like Tsubaki and Fino, with significant sales from overseas, particularly China. The company reported 107.3 billion yen in revenue for 2024 and an improved adjusted EBITDA margin of 21% in the first half of 2025.

Global M&A is set to maintain momentum in 2026, following a 40% rise to $4.9 trillion in 2025, according to Bain & Company's report. 80% of M&A executives anticipate sustained or increased deal activity, driven by technology disruption, geopolitics, and evolving portfolio strategies. AI adoption in M&A has more than doubled, with 45% of executives utilizing AI tools. However, high capital demand poses challenges, as M&A capital allocation is at a 30-year low. Bain outlines five strategies for M&A success in 2026, emphasizing the need for disciplined reinvention and value creation.

Bain Capital has made a binding offer for FineToday Holdings, a Japanese personal-care group, aiming to expand in Asia's beauty market. Competitors KKR and Blackstone have withdrawn from the bidding. FineToday, known for brands like Tsubaki shampoo, operates in 11 Asian markets, with China being a significant market. The company previously attempted an IPO but faced valuation issues. Japan's deal-making reached a record high in 2025, driven by corporate governance reforms and private equity interest.
