It was predicted that Pearson would sell its share in Penguin Random House. Pearson CEO John Fallon estimated that the company would wait until at least 2017.[10] In July 2017, Pearson agreed to sell a 22% stake in the business to Bertelsmann, thereby retaining a 25% holding.[11][12] BrandingIn June 2014 Penguin Random House unveiled a new logo designed by Michael Beirut of Pentagram. The logo is a simple serif font with the words Penguin Random House bookended by orange (as a tribute to the original colors of Penguin).
