“The board of Clarion fully supports Faurecia’s tender offer and recommends its shareholders to tender their shares to Faurecia’s offer,” said a Faurecia statement.
“Pursuant to the agreement signed on October 26, 2018, Hitachi committed to tender all of its shares, representing 63.8% of the share capital of Clarion, to Faurecia’s offer.
“Faurecia intends to implement a squeeze-out procedure to acquire all the remaining shares of Clarion, to the extent needed after the tender offer process.”
With the acquisition of Clarion, Faurecia intends to create a new Business Group headquartered in Japan, to be known as Faurecia Clarion Electronics, regrouping Clarion, Parrot Faurecia Automotive and Coagent Electronics.
