Cimpor-Cimentos De Portugal, Sgps, S.A MATERIAL INFORMATION CIMPOR - Cimentos de Portugal, SGPS, S.A. (CIMPOR), informs that its subsidiary Cimpor Chengtong Cement Corporation, Limited (CCCC), signed today a binding agreement, subject to several conditions precedent, for the acquisition of 100% of the share capital of the Chinese company Liyang Dongfang Cement Co. (Liyang). Liyang, incorporated in the end of 2003, owns a clinker production line with a capacity of 900.000 tons per year, located near the city of Changzhou, in the Province of Jiangsu. In 2007, Liyang operated at its full capacity, reaching a turnover close to EUR 11 million. Liyang’s natural market covers the cities of Changzhou, Wuxi and Suzhou, in one of the most developed areas of the Yangtze delta. With this investment and the completion, during next year, of the projects under construction – a new integrated plant (Shanting) and two new grinding mills (Huaian and Suqian) – Cimpor Chengtong will increase to more than 6 million tons its annual cement production capacity with own clinker. The agreed sale price for this transaction is of only CNY 210 million (around EUR 25 million) to be adjusted on the closing of the acquisition according to the net profit of Liyang in the current year. That value corresponds to an asset valuation of around EUR 31 per ton of clinker production installed capacity, which is an attractive multiple taking into consideration other acquisitions in the cement sector, even in emerging markets. Operating in Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Turkey, Brazil, Mozambique, South Africa, Cape Verde, Peru, India and China, CIMPOR Group increases with this acquisition its position in a market which not only is the biggest worldwide but that even so shows an attractive growth prospects. CIMPOR reinforces therefore its position among the main international cement players, pursuing a geographical diversification strategy as a way to guarantee its growth, increase of cash flow generation and sustainable shareholder value creation.

    OPINION OF CADE’S ATTORNEY GENERAL (Translated from the original version in Portuguese) Cimpor informs that it acknowledged today the opinion (ref. 209/2012) of CADE’s Attorney General (competition authority of Brazil), dated 15 May and concerning the Concentration Acts involving Camargo Corrêa S.A., Votorantim Cimentos S.A., Companhia Nacional de Cimento Portland (“Lafarge”), Cimpor – Cimentos de Portugal, SGPS, S.A. (“CIMPOR”) and its subsidiary Cimpor Cimentos do Brasil Ltda. In said opinion the following conclusions are proposed: “a) Approval of the concentration act 08012.002018/2010-07 [acquisition, by Camargo Correa S.A. of 31,8% of CIMPOR’s share capital], subject to the suggestions listed [below]”: “57. Firstly, there shall be a complete segregation between CCSA and any other company acting in the cement market. That is: CCSA may not have any crossed or joint company stake with any company that acts in the same cement market, and which may affect directly and indirectly the Brazilian market. 58. Additionally, there shall be the disposal of a set of integrated assets1 in the cement and concrete and gravel markets that may facilitate the entry of an economic agent, according to the terms recently set out by CADE (…). 59. The mere disposal of concrete assets, given the market situation already assessed by CADE, would not solve the competition problem. 60. Finally, the creation of the player CCSA/CIMPOR may be reversed in the event that CCSA is convicted of Cartel conduct, totally or in part, since, as suggested by SDE2, the penalty of asset disposal may be applied to undertakings convicted of cartel practices, with the sale of cement plants with excess capacity that enable the entry of new agents into the market.” “b) Disapproval of the concentration acts AC 08012.001875/2010-81 and 08012.001879/2010-60 [acquisition by Votorantim Cimentos S.A.

  • Effects Analysis in Abuse of Dominance Cases in China – Is Qihoo 360 V Tencent a Game-Changer?*
    Effects Analysis in Abuse of Dominance Cases in China – Is Qihoo 360 v Tencent a Game-Changer?* Adrian Emch Introduction In June 2014, the General Court of the European Union (EU) issued its judgment in the Intel case. The judgment created quite some controversy in antitrust circles. One of the reasons was that the General Court concluded, essentially, that a showing of actual anti-competitive effects was not required for Intel’s conduct to be illegal.1 This position contrasts with US antitrust law, where an analysis of competitive effects is generally required for monopolisation cases – ie, the equivalent to abuse of dominance cases in the EU.2 With these divergent EU and US approaches, this article examines where Chinese antitrust law positions itself on this key issue. In particular, the article focuses on two questions: (1) are Chinese antitrust authorities and courts required to examine effects before finding an illegal abuse of dominance; and (2) what kind of effects are examined? * A version of this article will appear in Philip Lowe, Mel Marquis and Giorgio Monti (eds), What is a Uniform Application of EU Competition Law? Hart Publishing (forthcoming). The author would like to thank Thomas Cheng and Liyang Hou for their invaluable comments on earlier drafts of this article, and Qing Lyu for her support in putting it together. 1 Case T-286/09, Intel v European Commission, 12 June 2014, [2014] ECR II-0000, paras 103–104, for example. 2 See, for example, United States v Microsoft Corp, 253 F.3d 34, 58 (DC Cir 2001) (en banc) (per curiam).
