Nike expects the transaction to be completed before the end of its current fiscal year. “We’re pleased to have reached an agreement for Bauer with strategic buyers who have a passion for hockey and are committed to continue to invest in Bauer’s long-term growth and brand leadership” said Nike, Inc. President and CEO Mark Parker. “Nike Bauer Hockey has been part of the Nike family for 12 years, and its team has done an incredible job. Selling this great hockey company was a tough decision but one that was in the best interests of Nike and Bauer as we each look to maximize our respective growth opportunities.” Bauer, hockey’s leading manufacturer, has delivered innovative products for over 80 years.

Alex Ovechkin Boosts Bauer Brand in Russian Play - the Globe and Mail 2015-12-16 5:28 PM
Alex Ovechkin boosts Bauer brand in Russian play - The Globe and Mail 2015-12-16 5:28 PM Alex Ovechkin boosts Bauer brand in Russian play Alexander Ovechkin is a goal-scoring machine, having led the National Hockey League three times in the past six seasons. But the Russian superstar found himself in a slump in 2010— enough of a dry spell, in fact, that he resorted to extreme measures. Frustrated with the CCM sticks he’d been using as part of a multimillion-dollar endorsement deal, Ovechkin began experimenting with other manufacturers. In the high-priced world of sports endorsements, where athlete and brand are contractually wedded, it was as close to infidelity as you can get. To avoid the possibility of legal problems, Ovechkin covered the rival companies’ sticks in black spray paint to obscure their logos. For Ovechkin, it was an act of desperation. For CCM, which is owned by Reebok, a subsidiary of Adidas AG, it was a branding nightmare. But for another company, it was a golden opportunity. And the timing couldn’t have been better. Bauer Performance Sports—CCM’s long-time rival in hockey equipment—was laying the groundwork for a major push into Russia and Eastern Europe. The imminent Sochi Olympics would be the perfect spotlight: Hockey, after all, is a Winter Olympics glamour sport. All Bauer needed was a spokesman for its Russian invasion. Ovechkin, a celebrity in Moscow, would do nicely. When the two sides sat down to discuss an endorsement in the summer of 2011, the talks culminated in a six-year deal for untold millions (Bauer won’t discuss financial terms).
