-- 法国汽车技术供应商Forvia(FRVIA.PA)将以18.2亿欧元的价格将其内饰业务集团出售给阿波罗管理的基金。此举将使这家法国集团能够削减债务,并专注于技术驱动型业务。 根据周一发布的消息,该业务部门在2025年将贡献这家汽车技术供应商18%的合并收入,其业务遍及19个国家的59个生产基地和8个研发中心。Forvia表示,新东家计划支持该内饰业务的发展和转型。 Forvia表示,此次出售是其在2月24日资本市场日上提出的“Ignite”战略实施过程中的重要一步。交易所得净收益将用于至少减少公司10亿欧元的净债务,这符合管理层重塑集团财务结构的计划。 德意志银行研究部表示:“关于出售Interior业务,此前在股东大会上宣布的预期债务削减计划已得到确认,预计将于2026年完成现金到账。我们认为,交易前景更加明朗是一个积极信号。总体而言,我们预计此次消息发布不会对市场普遍预期产生太大影响。” 该交易预计将于2026年底完成,但需获得相关监管机构的批准,并需与员工代表机构进行磋商。Forvia聘请Evercore担任首席财务顾问,法国农业信贷银行(Crédit Agricole CIB)担任财务顾问,贝克·麦坚时律师事务所(Baker McKenzie)担任法律顾问。 Forvia股价在上午交易时段下跌近2%。

Research Alert: Arc Resources To Be Acquired By Shell For Cad22b, Growing Lng Canada Synergies
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Shell plc (SHELL LN GBP33 ***) agreed to acquire ARC Resources Ltd. in a CAD22B cash-and-stock transaction at CAD32.80 per share, a 27% premium to ARC's April 26 closing price. ARC shareholders will receive 0.40247 Shell shares plus CAD8.20 cash per share, with the deal unanimously recommended by ARC's board. The acquisition strategically strengthens Shell's integrated gas business by adding high-quality Montney reserves and creating synergies with Shell's existing 40% stake in LNG Canada to accelerate export value. The transaction requires 66.67% shareholder approval at a July 2026 meeting and regulatory clearances, with closing expected in H2 2026. We believe the deal establishes a scaled Canadian growth platform with decades of resource runway while bringing deep Montney technical expertise to Shell's global organization. ARC's status as a top-quartile low carbon intensity producer aligns with Shell's "more value, less emissions" strategy. ARX trades flat year-to-date and down about 4% over 12 months.
