Pernod Ricard SA, the owner of Chivas Regal whisky and Absolut vodka, has reached a $223 million deal to buy Castle Brands Inc.
"Bourbon is a key category in the U.S., which is our single most important market," Pernod Ricard Chief Executive Alexandre Ricard said in a statement, singling out Castle Brands' Jefferson's bourbon whiskey.
"As with our American whiskies Smooth Ambler, Rabbit Hole and TX, we would provide Jefferson's a strong route to market and secure its long-term development, while remaining true to its authentic and innovative character," Mr. Richard said.
Under the terms of the agreement, Pernod Ricard would buy New York-based Castle Brands through a subsidiary. Castle Brands shareholders would receive $1.27 in cash for each outstanding share. Castle Brands stock closed Thursday at 67 cents and traded at $1.18 in after-hours trading.
The deal is expected to close in the fourth quarter.
