Transaction highlights

Cenergy Holdings SA (Cenergy Holdings) is currently engaged in a cross-border merger with two Greek listed companies, Corinth Pipeworks Holdings S.A. (Corinth Pipeworks) and Hellenic Cables S.A. Holdings Société Anonyme (Hellenic Cables).

Upon completion of such cross-border merger, Cenergy Holdings portfolio will include companies active in the fields of steel pipes and cables production, distribution and trade. Corinth Pipeworks represents the steel pipes segment and is a supplier of choice for oil and gas companies and international construction companies. Hellenic Cables represents the cables segment and is one of the largest cable producers in Europe.

The cross-border merger will enable Corinth Pipeworks and Hellenic Cables to group their financial leverage and business outreach, and thus to provide to the underlying industrial companies in Greece and abroad solid sponsorship and reliable reference when bidding for demanding international projects or seeking access to restricted international financing. As a listed company, both in Brussels and Athens, Cenergy Holdings will present the international investor community with an opportunity to invest in a promising business sector under conditions of increased visibility and scrutiny. The ability of the company to access the international financial markets will help consolidate the underlying industrial Greek companies’ achievements and secure long-term employment for their highly qualified workforce. It will also help enhance their competitiveness and confirm their development and investment prospects.

Completion of the cross-border merger is subject to the approval of the shareholders’ meetings of all three merging companies which are scheduled to take place on 7 December 2016 for Cenergy Holdings, and on 8 December 2016 for Corinth Pipeworks and Hellenic Cables.
