Editis is a French group of publishing companies, subsidiary of Spanish group Planeta. It is the second-largest French publishing group after Hachette Livre.
History
Editis was created in January 2004 by the regrouping of approximately 60% of the publishing assets of Vivendi, the other part remaining to Lagardère Group.[1] Editis was during 4 years (until May 2008) part of Wendel, a financial investment group who had acquired it from Investima10 (a financial ad hoc structure holding Vivendi Universal Publishing assets after Lagardère's purchase in 2003). Wendel purchased this group of publishers for about 400 million Euros plus debt, and sold it to Planeta for about 960 million, realizing a very important profit. In May 2008, Editis integrated the Planeta Group, the main Spanish-speaking publisher.
