ROLLS-ROYCE HOLDINGS PLC
OBTAINS FINAL APPROVAL FOR ACQUISITION OF ITP
Rolls-Royce has obtained the approval of all the relevant
authorities for the acquisition of the outstanding 53.1%
shareholding in Industria de Turbo Propulsores SA ("ITP") owned by
SENER Grupo de Ingeniería SA ("SENER"). Approval from the
authorities in Spain paves the way for Rolls-Royce to conclude the
acquisition, which was originally announced on 11 July 2016.
On 28 November 2016, Rolls-Royce confirmed the valuation of EUR
720m for the 53.1% shareholding, following due diligence.
Consideration will be settled over a two-year period following
completion in eight evenly spaced instalments of equal value. The
agreement with SENER allows flexibility to settle each tranche of
the consideration either in cash or in the form of Rolls-Royce
shares as preferred by Rolls-Royce.
Completion is expected before the end of 2017. The first payment
will be made 16 business days post-closing in early 2018 and the
consideration will be in the form of shares. The decision on the
form of subsequent payments will be determined as each individual
payment falls due.
