Following the deal, Nestle said it would own 20.1% of L’Oreal.
The packaged foods maker also said its board had decided to buy back 20 billion Swiss francs ($21.63 billion) worth of shares between 2022 and 2024, adding that it would adjust this program should it make sizable acquisitions.
Nestle said it would terminate its current share repurchase plan by the end of the year, having bought back shares for 12.7 billion Swiss francs or almost two-thirds of the program volume.
L’Oreal around four years ago had underscored its readiness to buy Nestle’s 23% stake in the cosmetics maker if the Swiss company was to sell it.
