iDealwine secures investment from LM Holding

iDealwine and LM Holding, a company owned by May-Eliane de Lencquesaing, have just signed an agreement whereby LM Holding takes a stake in the capital of iDealwine in order to accelerate its international growth. Both partners share a vision on the evolution of the grand crus market and their strategic association aims at creating a world's leadership in the online auction and fine wine market. A budget of 2 million euros will support this ambitious plan.

This partnership brings into iDealwine's capital a major figure of the wine industry: May-Eliane de Lencquesaing. May-Eliane has been in charge of the family vineyard Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande in Pauillac for 30 years. This partnership between May-Eliane de Lencquesaing and the directors and founders of iDealwine.com is intended to consolidate the leadership position of the website iDealwine.com, an electronic platform where wine lovers can buy and sell their top wines, and estimate the value of their cellar.

iDealwine.com, a company set up in 2000 and already present in France and in Asia, launched an online platform helping amateurs to value their own cellars as well as to buy and sell valuable bottles. Offering both online auctions and fixed price sales (bottles with set prices sourced directly from wine estates or merchants), the company quickly established itself as a major player in the online market. iDealwine.com successfully brought the fine wine market into the 21st century introducing 100% online auctions through its subsidiary INTERNATIONAL WINE AUCTION. In addition, iDealwine.com set up a wide range of services for wine connoisseurs and professionals: an information database, a recognized wine rating system, a range of fine wine indexes grouped under WineDex, as well as a variety of market analysis tools.

Over 350'000 amateurs worldwide are now members of iDealwine.com.

Arthur de Lencquesaing - grandson of May-Eliane de Lencquesaing - who worked into the world of wine and Champagne firstly in Asia, then in Europe within the LVMH Group, has joined iDealwine to manage the international expansion from iDealwine’s new office located in London.

Adamas advised IDEALWINE.COM and its directors on corporate matters under the supervision of Jean-Marie Tocchio (Partner) with the assistance of Valentin Martinez, while tax aspects were handled by Nicolas Julien, Partner at Julien- Jeulin & Associés.

LM HOLDING was advised on the financial aspects of the transaction by Yves Marguerat, Partner at Fidex Audit SA in Lausanne. Legal assistance was provided by Marie-Isabelle Carlhian from Chaintrier Avocats in Paris and Jean-François

JD Capital, National Equities Exchange and Quotations listing

On April 23 2014, JD Capital Co., Ltd. (“JD Capital”, stock code: 430719) was successfully launched on the National Equities Exchange and Quotations (“NEEQ”).

JD Capital consequently became the first PE firm listed on NEEQ and hence securitized in China.

While it was listed, JD Capital managed to raise approximately 3.537bn yuan through a private offering, marking the single largest transaction since the inception of NEEQ.

JD Capital, whether in terms of equity or market capitalization, is beyond any doubt the No. 1 stock on NEEQ.

A Dacheng team led by senior partner Li Shoushuang conducted due diligence and advised JD Capital on ownership restructuring, listing and the private offering. Mr. Li was assisted by associate Li Xue and paralegals Lin Fangfei, Wang Xiaoxiao and Chai Yuan. LM
