Ceconomy CEO states no decision reached on Fnac Darty stake sale

Ceconomy CEO Kai-Ulrich Deissner stated on Wednesday that the firm awaits a formal offer from Daniel Kretinsky. No decision on the stake sale has been made.

Insights:
Ceconomy AG , based in Germany DEDE, has announced that it has not yet made a decision regarding its approximately 22% stake in the retailer Fnac Darty S.A. , which operates primarily in France FRFR. The company stated on Wednesday that it will only determine its course of action after receiving a concrete and detailed offer from Daniel Kretinsky, who has launched a public takeover bid for the retailer through EP Group.
The takeover bid, which values Fnac Darty at approximately €1.1 billion, follows a public announcement by the EP Group, an entity based in the Czech Republic CZCZ. The decision by Ceconomy is considered pivotal because its stake of just under 22% is a significant factor in the outcome of the bid. Daniel Kretinsky currently controls about 28% of the retailer, meaning the choice made by Ceconomy will materially affect the progress and eventual control of the takeover process.
