PRESS: Three Firms Explore Bid For De La Rue's Authentication Arm

Mon, 11th Nov 2019 06:58

(Alliance News) - Private equity firms are evaluating a takeover offer for bank note printer De La Rue PLC's product authentication unit, the Daily Mail newspaper reported on Sunday.

According to the newspaper, three private equity firms – one headquartered in the UK and two US firms with London offices – are weighing up a bid for the product authentication division, which creates tracking software and physical labels to help prevent trade in fraudulent items, from cigarettes to official football shirts.

According to the Daily Mail, citing one analyst, the product authentication unit could be worth up to GBP200 million.

De La Rue currently has a market capitalisation of GBP162.8 million.

Talks within the private equity firms regarding a bid for the company's product authentication unit are currently at an early stage, the Mail reported.

In the year to March 31, the product authentication unit contributed GBP5.7 million to De La Rue's GBP60 million total profit.

Sunday newspaper round-up: China, Facebook, Petropavlovsk

(Sharecast News) - Britain will lose billions of pounds of investment and thousands of jobs unless it reverses its hostility to China, an influential lobby group for Chinese businesses has warned. In the most stark public intervention yet, the China Chamber of Commerce in the UK - which represents companies including Huawei, ZTE and Air China - said there could also be a consumer backlash against British companies such as Jaguar Land Rover and Burberry, which are heavily reliant on China's middle-class customers. Relations between China and the UK are at their lowest ebb in decades, hit by Beijing's power grab in Hong Kong and Donald Trump's trade war with President Xi Jinping. - Sunday Times
