ArcelorMittal completes acquisition of strategic stake in Vallourec
06 August 2024, 07:30 CET
ArcelorMittal today announces that following the signature of a Share Purchase Agreement on 12 March 2024, and after the approval of relevant antitrust authorities and clearances under foreign investment regulations, it has completed the acquisition of 65,243,206 shares, representing c.28.41% equity interest in Vallourec, for €14.64 per share from funds managed by Apollo Global Management Inc., for a total consideration of approximately €955 million, subject to successful completion of the settlement.
Following completion of this transaction, the appointment of Mr. Genuino Magalhaes Christino (Chief Financial Officer, ArcelorMittal) as director of Vallourec will become effective, Keith Howell (Chief Operating Officer, ArcelorMittal USA) will be appointed as director of Vallourec, and Aditya Mittal as observer of Vallourec, subject to successful completion of the settlement.
ArcelorMittal does not intend to launch a tender offer for Vallourec’s remaining shares over the next six months and will inform the market should this intention change.
Commenting, Aditya Mittal, CEO, ArcelorMittal, said:
“Vallourec is well established as a producer of high-quality tubular products, holding a prime position in an attractive market segment that has potential for growth from new, clean energy markets. The strategic stake is a welcome addition to our investment portfolio, and we look forward to supporting Vallourec’s management team in their efforts to drive further performance improvement.
“It also supports our ongoing efforts to grow our business. The acquisitions we have made in recent years in Brazil and the US are performing well and progress with our suite of organic growth projects continues apace, with several due to complete this year. These initiatives will significantly strengthen our business, expanding our product capabilities and emerging markets exposure while enhancing our earnings capacity.”
