Ningbo Shanshan mantiene interés por Pampa Calichera

Intel ID : 243124
Synopsis

Ningbo Shanshan (SSE:600884), a China-based manufacturer and seller of garments and lithium battery materials, is said to retain an interest in acquiring a majority stake in Chile-based Sociedad de Inversiones Pampa Calichera (BCS:CALICH), reported La Tercera on 5 December 2016, citing sources close to the company.

According to the report, the China-based company, which is said to have abandoned the sale in August (see related intel), would be the favorite candidate to acquire 88.9% of Pampa Calichera, which, in turn, holds approximately 23% of SQM (BCS:SQM-A, SQM-B; NYSE:SQM), a Chile-based chemical and mining company.

Specifically, Ningbo would now be planning to bid USD 2.5bn for Pampa Calichera and, should the acquisition be successful, it would later sign a joint action agreement with Potasios de Chile (BCS:POTASIO), which holds another 12% of SQM, to become, together, the largest shareholders of the company, the report stated.

Meanwhile, China-based Tianqi Lithium, whose interest in Pampa Calichera was made public in September (see related intel), would be farther from the acquisition.

Ningbo Shanshan (SSE:600884), empresa china dedicada a la fabricación y venta de indumentaria y materiales de baterías de litio, aún estaría interesada en adquirir la mayoría accionarial de la chilena Sociedad de Inversiones Pampa Calichera (BCS:CALICH), ha publicado La Tercera el 5 de diciembre de 2016, citando fuentes cercanas a la empresa.

Según lo publicado, la empresa china, que se habría bajado del proceso de venta en agosto (ver intel relacionado), sería la favorita para adquirir 88,9% de Pampa Calichera, que, a su vez, tiene alrededor de 23% de SQM (BCS:SQM-A, SQM-B; NYSE:SQM), empresa química y minera chilena.

En concreto, Ningbo ahora planearía ofertar unos USD 2.500m por Pampa Calichera y, de ser exitosa la adquisición, fimaría luego un pacto de acción conjunta con Potasios de Chile (BCS:POTASIO), que tiene un 12% de SQM, para juntas convertirse en las mayores accionistas de la empresa, de acuerdo con la información.

Por su parte, la china Tianqi Lithium, cuyo interés en Pampa Calichera se ha hecho público en septiembre (ver intel relacionado), estaría cada vez más alejada de la adquisición.
