Graña y Montero announces new investment in Chile through the acquisition of DSD Construcciones y Montajes

LIMA, Peru--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 13, 2013--Today, Graña y Montero (“Graña y Montero” or the “Company”), the engineering and construction Peruvian company recently listed in the New York Stock Exchange, formalized the acquisition of a 100% stake in DSD Construcciones y Montajes S.A. (“DSD”), a Chilean engineering and construction company specialized in providing services to the energy, oil and gas, cellulose and mining sector in Chile and Latin America.

The announcement was made by Graña y Montero’s CEO, Mario Alvarado, after the subscription of the purchase agreement by which Graña y Montero acquired 100% of DSD´s shares from the Ferrostaal Group, through an investment of US$ 41 million.

According to Mario Alvarado, the Company’s investment in DSD, together with the purchase of a majority stake in Vial y Vives in late 2012, will enable the Company to strengthen its presence in Chile. The combination of the human capabilities from the different companies that are part of the Graña y Montero Group will generate a highly specialized services provider with a regional reach.

He also noted that this operation is a further step in the internationalization strategy of the leading engineering and construction group in Peru. "This is Graña y Montero’s third investment in Chile and it confirms our objective to grow in that country and in a regional level, in line with the objectives outlined in the recent capital raising process carried out in the New York Stock Exchange".
