08/10/2003 10:24 | PARIS (AFX) - EU competition commissioner Mario Monti said his team will examine the planned merger of Groupe Air France SA and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines NV in a constructive manner, in an interview with french radio Europe 1. "This is a very interesting case," Monti said. "Obviously, we are going to examine it in a constructive manner, because we recognize the need for more consolidation" in the airline sector, Monti said. Concerning the French government's planned 3.2 bln eur rescue package for the ailing engineering group Alstom, to be investigated by the EU Commission, Monti said the Commission "is not trying to push Alstom into bankruptcy." "Europe allows financial aid and restructuring plans, as long as they conform" with EU rules on state aid, he said. The Commission blocked an original rescue package proposed by the French government, since it would have seen the state take a direct 30 pct equity stake in Alstom before the Commission had ruled on the legality of the aid. Monti also said that in the case of Bull, which has yet to repay a 450 mln eur loan from the French government that was due last Summer, the company had already received restructuring aid from the government in the past. "One strict condition is the non-repetition of financial aid," Monti said. "We do not allow the permanent use of life support" for companies. "You can imagine what kind of situation the French and European economies would be in if each state could grant aid without any restrictions," he added. The European Commission said earlier this month it plans to take the French government to the European Court of Justice to recover the 450 mln eur rescue aid package for Bull. paris@afxnews.com js/jc | maywillow | |
03/10/2003 18:47 | PARIS (AFX) - Thales SA chief executive Denis Ranque denied rumours of an imminent shake-up of the group's shareholding structure, saying neither the state nor Alcatel has expressed an interest in selling their stakes soon. "The rumours surrounding Thales are not justified," Ranque said in an interview with the Journal des Finances magazine, to be published tomorrow. "I think that it's up to each of our shareholders to make their own decisions but, for the moment, neither Alcatel, nor the state has shown any interest in seeing their stakes change in the short term," he said. Alcatel holds a 9.5 pct stake in Thales and the French state has 31.8 pct. Dassault Aviation holds a 5.9 pct stake, while Thales holds 5.6 pct of its own shares as treasury stock. The remainder, 47.4 pct, is traded on the stock market. Ranque has stated in the past that he eventually hopes to see the French government divest its stake. He reiterated in the Journal des Finances interview that "Thales needs shareholders, like any company, but it is not vital to have support from industrial partners" as shareholders. "I bet that the evolution of Thales' shareholding structure will be surprising. The best things are prepared in secret," he added. Ranque also repeated his aim of developing its naval activities, but refused to comment directly on Thales' interest in the potential acquisition of the German shipyard Howaldtswerke Deutsche Werft AG (HDW), owned by Bank One Corp unit One Equity Partners. "We do not need to own a shipyard to be a big player in the naval business," he said. "The essential thing is to avoid creating a monopolistic structure, which would exclude us from certain contracts and keep us from remaining a major player in this market." Earlier this week, Thales's Francois Lureau, director of the group's Defence unit, said the company is in talks with France's state-owned Direction des Constructions Navales (DCN) to link the companies' naval activities. paris@afxnews.com js/jsa | maywillow | |

26/9/2003 07:49 | RNS Number:2097Q Alstom 26 September 2003 26 September 2003 ALSTOM SELLS ITS TRANSMISSION & DISTRIBUTION ACTIVITIES TO AREVA FOR Euro950 MILLION ALSTOM has reached an agreement to sell its Transmission & Distribution activities to Areva, for an entreprise value of Euro950 million, which is another key step in its continuing disposal programme. The Transmission & Distribution Sector sells products, systems and services for the medium and high voltage markets. The Sector's Power Conversion activities are not part of the transaction and will remain within ALSTOM. In the last financial year, ALSTOM's Transmission & Distribution Sector (excluding the Power Conversion activities) generated sales of Euro3.2 billion, accounting for 15% of ALSTOM's revenues. It employs 25,000 people in 70 countries. Commenting on the planned sale, Patrick Kron, Chairman and CEO of ALSTOM said: "This transaction constitutes another key step in implementing the action plan I launched on 12 March 2003. I also believe that T&D has a bright future in the Areva Group." The transaction is subject to normal closing conditions, including regulatory clearances and the completion of employee consultations. Closing is expected in January 2004. | ariane | |

23/9/2003 11:51 | PARIS (AFX) - Share prices were lower in midday trade as Wall Street's losses, the dollar weakness and disappointing French consumer spending figures weighed on sentiment, with Alstom among the biggest decliners, dealers said. At 12.06 pm the CAC-40 index was 19.29 points lower at 3,263.66. Volume was 1.4 bln eur. On the Matif, September CAC-40 futures were trading down 23.0 points at 3,263.0. The euro stood at 1.1490/95 against the dollar compared with 1.1465/69 usd in late trade yesterday. The index opened higher, reversing gains in morning trade on the dollar's continued woes, and as investors digested news that French household consumption of manufactured goods fell 2.7 pct in August compared with a 1.1 pct rise in July, and expectations of a 0.3 pct increase, dealers said. "Any bad news is just panicking the market," said a dealer in Paris. "There's quite a bit of profit-taking going on. There was a feeling the market needed to come off a bit, with a dip followed by a further wave. Investors want to have a bullish tendency," he said. "There's little news, and portfolio managers have not been very active this morning," said another Paris-based dealer. Among the decliners, Alstom plummeted 0.1 eur or 3.6 pct to 2.69, reversing initial sharp gains, as news it expects to report a first-half net loss of 500 mln for its 2003/2004 fiscal year and an operating margin of "just over" 1 pct took the shine off the approval of the revised rescue package, dealers said. Analysts at Oddo Pinatton said Alstom's financial situation is becoming "increasingly tense," and noted that Alstom has issued a "massive profit warning" of "catastrophic" results for the current financial year. Alstom said last night the revised financing package with the French government and its creditor banks has been increased to 3.2 bln eur from 2.8 bln. In the pharmaceutical sector, Aventis was down 0.21 at 47.10 after a downgrade to 'neutral' from 'outperform' by CSFB. And rival Sanofi was down 0.1 at 54.35 after the same broker downgraded the stock to 'underperform' from 'neutral'. Suez, one of the few CAC-40 gainers, rose 0.09 to 14.17. Earlier Morgan Stanley raised its price target to 18.50 eur from 16.50 eur and its fair net asset value estimate to 23.0 eur from 20.5 eur on the back of the group's cost cutting efforts to lower its debt load. Atos Origin was also trading in positive territory, rising 1.5 or 2.9 pct to 53.15, following yesterday's acquisition of Schlumberger's IT services unit, and as JP Morgan raised the group's price target to 52 eur from 40. But Vivendi Universal was off 0.09 at 15.62 in line with the overall market trend and ahead of tomorrow's first-half results. Among telecoms stocks, France Telecom gave away 0.13 to 21.32, reversing earlier wins, inspired by news last night that Moody's raised its outlook for the Baa3 long-term debt ratings for the French incumbent and its Orange subsidiary to positive from stable, dealers said. paris@afxnews.com sr/cmr | grupo guitarlumber |
