ESLOY Essilor Luxottica (PK)

   By Nathan Allen 
 

Essilor International SA's (EI.FR) board of directors has called the first shareholders' meeting for EssilorLuxottica, in anticipation that its merger with fellow eyewear maker Luxottica Group SpA (LUX.MI) will go ahead before July 25, the French company said Friday.

Essilor said it will submit resolutions that will give it "the means to implement its development projects as quickly as possible."

If the deal hasn't closed before then the company said it will reschedule but keep the same agenda.

Essilor and Italy's Luxottica agreed to merge in March via a complex share-swap deal that will create a company with a combined market value of about 46.3 billion euros ($54.23 billion).
