WOOD Flash – Mytilineos: new group structure and merger with METKA

Yesterday (14 December), Mytilineos announced a major corporate restructuring, with the merger into a single entity of all the main group companies. The main part of the deal is the merger of 50% subsidiary METKA (HOLD, PT EUR 7.6/share) with Mytilineos. In our view, the merger should be welcomed by Mytilineos’ shareholders, and we expect a positive market reaction in today’s trading. For METKA, we expect the shares to converge today to the price of Mytilineos; thus, we should see some pressure in the stock price today. Longer term, we believe that the new group structure will be very positive as it should simplify the structure, create operational synergies and improve funding costs.
