AkzoNobel’s largest shareholder has increased the pressure on the Dulux and Polyfilla owner to enter takeover talks with American rival PPG Industries.
American paints behemoth PPG Industries has upped the stakes in its pursuit of rival AkzoNobel by increasing its takeover offer by around £2bn, in a proposal which Akzo activist investor Elliott Advisors said may be PPG's last attempt to engage in "friendly discussions".
To most people, “the Netherlands” and “paint” means Rubens, Rembrandt or Vincent van Gogh. In looking to splurge 1.4 billion euros on Finnish coatings peer Tikkurila, aggressively crashing U.S. rival PPG Industries’ s planned takeover,
A merger of the two oil giants would allow significant cost cutting and balance-sheet flexibility. But the differences between them could be a problem. And then there’s the name of the new company.
The sale of Akzo Nobel’s specialty-chemicals business for $12.6 billion will create a pure-play coatings company potentially attractive to U.S. paint giants Sherwin-Williams and PPG Industries.
AkzoNobel traded lower in Amsterdam Tuesday after an arbitration panel in the Netherlands rejected an attempt by PPG Industries PPG to force a shareholder vote to oust its chairman.
