Canada Goose Receives Take-Private Bids

August 27, 2025

Canada Goose’s controlling shareholder, Bain Capital, has received bids to take the outerwear brand private at a valuation of about $1.35 billion, sources told CNBC.

Private equity firm Bain, which acquired Canada Goose in 2013, is looking to offload its holding, with Goldman Sachs advising on the sale, according to the report. However, the company is holding off on a decision until more offers arrive.

The report said that private-equity firms Boyu Capital and Advent International “have made verbal offers” that value Canada Goose at eight times its 12-month average EBITDA, which translates into a valuation of about $1.35 billion. Other interested buyers include Shanghai-based down jacket maker Bosideng International, and a consortium set up by private-equity firm FountainVest Capital and Anta Sports Product, CNBC added.
