The Pinewood Studios Group was subject to a hostile takeover approach in 2011. Manchester-based [[The Peel Group]] acquired a 73% stake, but [[Warren James Jewellers]] retained a 27% stake, so preventing a full takeover. In 2012 [[Financial Services Authority (United Kingdom)|Financial Services Authority]] considered cancelling the stock market listing because nearly all the shares are held by two groups.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Peel takeover cost Pinewood £2.4m |url=http://www.how-do.co.uk/north-west-media-news/other-media/peel-takeover-cost-pinewood-%C2%A32.4m-20120229100956657 |work=How Do |date=29 February 2012 |access-date=18 March 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120608232738/http://www.how-do.co.uk/north-west-media-news/other-media/peel-takeover-cost-pinewood-%C2%A32.4m-20120229100956657 |archive-date=8 June 2012 |url-status=dead |df=dmy-all }}</ref> In June 2016, five new stages and 10 new workshops were opened at Pinewood.<ref name=heritage/>
