Swiss chemicals company Sika AG said Thursday that it would acquire MBCC Group from an affiliate of Lone Star Funds, in a transaction with an enterprise value of 5.5 billion Swiss francs ($5.99 billion).
瑞士化工公司西卡(Sika AG)週四表示，將從孤星基金(Lone Star Funds)的一家附屬公司手中收購MBCC Group，交易的企業價值為55億瑞士法郎(合59.9億美元)。
MBCC, formerly BASF Construction Chemicals, is based in Germany. The deal will be highly complementary across most of Sika's core technologies, applications, and solutions, Sika said.
MBCC前身為巴斯夫建築化工公司，總部設在德國。西卡表示，這筆交易將在西卡的大多數核心技術、應用和解決方案方面具有很強的互補性。
The Swiss company expects annual synergies between CHF160 million and CHF180 million from the deal. It will be accretive to Sika's earnings per share from the first full year post closing, slated for the second half of 2022, Sika said.
這家瑞士公司預計，這筆交易每年的協同效應在1.6億至1.8億瑞士法郎之間。西卡表示，從計劃於2022年下半年完成的第一個全年收盤開始，這將增加西卡的每股收益。
MBCC Group, based in Germany, has approximately 7,500 employees and operations in more than 60 countries. In 2021, the company is expected to generate net sales of CHF2.9 billion, according to Sika.
總部設在德國的mBCC集團在60多個國家和地區擁有約7500名員工和業務。據西卡稱，2021年，該公司預計將產生29億瑞士法郎的淨銷售額。
