In making their recommendation, the Independent Directors have carefully considered a full range of expert advice available to them. Therefore you should take no action. The principal reasons for recommending that shareholders do not accept are: _ Having regard to a full range of expert advice now available to the Independent Directors (including the Independent Adviser’s valuation range of $1.28 to $1.57 per FPA Share), the Independent Directors consider that the Offer of $1.20 per FPA Share does not adequately reflect their view of the value of FPA based on their confidence in the strategic direction of the Company; and _ FPA is in a strong financial position and, as the Independent Adviser notes, FPA is at a “relatively early stage of implementation of the company’s comprehensive rebuilding strategy”.

  • Complaint : U. S. V. AB Electrolux, Et
    Case 1:15-cv-01039 Document 1 Filed 07/01/15 Page 1 of 15 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, U.S. Department of Justice, Antitrust Division, 450 Fifth Street NW, Suite 4000, Washington, DC 20530, Plaintiff, v. AB ELECTROLUX, S:t Goransgatan 143, Stockholm, Sweden 10545, ELECTROLUX NORTH AMERICA, INC., 10200 David Taylor Drive, Charlotte, NC 28262, and GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY, 3135 Easton Turnpike, Fairfield, CT 06828, Defendants. COMPLAINT The United States of America, acting under the direction of the Attorney General of the United States, brings this civil action to enjoin the proposed acquisition by Defendants AB Electrolux and Electrolux North America, Inc. (collectively “Electrolux”) of Defendant General Electric Company’s assets relating to its appliance business unit. The United States alleges as follows: Case 1:15-cv-01039 Document 1 Filed 07/01/15 Page 2 of 15 I. INTRODUCTION 1. General Electric and Electrolux, which owns the “Frigidaire” brand, have long competed to sell major cooking appliances (ranges, cooktops, and wall ovens), which are an essential part of the American household and among consumers’ most significant purchases. Electrolux, through the proposed acquisition, would stop that competition and take out an important rival in General Electric. If not enjoined, the proposed acquisition would combine two of the leading suppliers of major cooking appliances sold in the United States. The result likely would be less competition, higher prices, and fewer options for millions of Americans who buy major cooking appliances each year. 2. The proposed acquisition would create a duopoly in the supply of major cooking appliances to American home builders, property managers, and other contract-channel appliance purchasers.

  • AMBA 660 Case Study Haier's North America
    AMBA 660 Case Study Haier’s North America Expansion Mohamed Ezz, MD, DM (UMUC) Collegiate Professor, Business and Management Department University of Maryland University College Haier Group www.haier.com Reuters: “Haier Group said it would buy General Electric Co.'s appliance business for $5.4 billion, the Chinese company's latest attempt to boost its presence in the lucrative United States market. Haier, which made an abortive attempt in 2008 to buy the business, has a negligible presence in the U.S. white goods market, dominated by Whirlpool Corp, Sweden's Electrolux AB and GE. The news comes weeks after GE walked away from a deal to sell the business to Electrolux for $3.3 billion, following months of opposition from U.S. antitrust regulators. The deal with Haier is unlikely to draw intense antitrust scrutiny, according to some antitrust experts, but may get a hard look from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS)” (Ajmera, 2016, para 1-4) Chinese Companies Going Global China is rising as a globally influential economic and political power. China has achieved an average growth rate of almost 10% over the past 20 years, making it one of the world’s largest economies and trading powers. This rapid economic development has enhanced China’s international competitiveness. Chinese blue chip companies have realized the limitations of their local market, and worked on becoming global players. Many of these companies have quietly started their own international expansion; examples include Haier, HiSense, ad Gree. And while the Chinese government encourages the global expansion of Chinese companies, it has not yet developed policies and frameworks to govern such expansion.

    JOINT INDUSTRY COMMENTS on WEEE2 Draft Implementing Regulation establishing a Common Methodology for the Calculation of “the weight of EEE placed on the national market in each Member State” and a Common Methodology for the Calculation of the “Quantity of WEEE Generated by Weight in each Member State” Brussels, 7 February 2017 In view of the upcoming vote on 13th February 2017 of the members of the Technical Adaptation Committee, we would like to provide the following observations on the latest draft Commission Implementing Regulation establishing a common methodology for the calculation of “the weight of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) placed on the national market in each Member State” and a common methodology for the calculation of “the quantity of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) generated by weight in each Member State”: • We thank the Commission for its efforts to establish common methodologies both for the calculation EEE POM and WEEE generated collection targets. On the one hand, these methodologies are crucial to ensure a clear and harmonised implementation of the collection target in each Member State. On the other hand, it is essential that the methodologies lead to fair targets, which are based on objective, clear and transparent criteria. Member States are of course free to choose, which of the two approaches they use to demonstrate the achievement of the collection rate from 2019 onwards. • We fully support the following changes made by the Commission compared to the 2015 draft version: o Calculation of the weight of EEE placed on the market of a Member State (POM) – Article 3 of the Draft Implementing Regulation: it is now clear that the first source of information is the information provided by the producers.

  • CECED Comments on ACER FG on Electricity Balancing
    25 June 2012 CECED input to the Consultation on ACER’S Framework Guidelines on Electricity Balancing Smart Grids are considered one of the key investment areas for a sustainable future: they are a tool for optimising energy production and usage by exploiting flexibility in the supply and demand of electricity. On the demand side, household appliances count for about 30% of energy consumption in residential premises, therefore they are one of the best candidates to become “smart”, i.e. built to interact with Smart Grids. CECED1 represents the household appliance industry, a relevant partner in the development of Smart Grids in Europe. We believe that as more and more appliances become smart, a significant curtailment of consumption will be possible upon request at collective or individual level. It implies a contribution to grid balancing through implementation of Demand-Response programs. In short, if well managed, smart appliances can allow the consumer to play a significant role in controlling the demand side with minimum impact on his/her needs and habits in a properly designed smart grid. CECED is convinced that demand-side resources will play a major role in the stability and performance of future European energy networks if relevant decisions are taken with respect to system requirements. Such decisions will have significant implications, at political, technical, and economic levels for consumers and the development of demand side resources’ market in Europe. The rules for trading the provision of system balancing services, including power reserve rules, should allow for demand side response, while ensuring effective competition and benefit for customers.

  • Joint Industry Letter on Ecodesign
    Brussels, Monday, October 24, 2016 Dear President, Dear Vice-Presidents, Dear Commissioners, We understand that you will discuss in the coming weeks the future of the Ecodesign Framework. Our industry organisations, representing the heating, cooling, refrigeration, ventilation, household appliance and ICT & consumer electronics sectors, strongly support Ecodesign and Energy Labelling which, for several product groups, have proven very successful and contributed to the EU’s energy and climate goals by pushing and pulling the market towards more energy efficient products. However, to ensure that this success story continues, we would like to emphasize some key points which, in our view, require urgent attention: First, we urge you to publish without delay already voted Ecodesign measures, such as Lot 21 and omnibus Regulation on tolerances, at the very latest with the Winter Package. Indeed, the delay in publication in the Official Journal of already voted Ecodesign measures creates an unmanageable situation for industry, including SMEs, which invests considerable resources to improve the energy efficiency of products and needs legal certainty to re-design them and comply with the new requirements. Second, complement the current Ecodesign and Energy Labelling policies with measures to support the market uptake of efficient products. For example, raise consumer awareness about the benefits of energy efficiency and help them make investments; in the EPBD revision, promote inspections of installed appliances which can lead to planned replacements. Finally, Ecodesign measures have been effective because they have regulated measurable, verifiable parameters of the whole system, such as the energy consumption in use on the basis of a clear and transparent methodology.
