The merger reasoning
Major objective – creation of the large single national operator on the machines building market should lead through integration and synergy to a company value growth multiplied, as opposed to a share addition of both values
Shareholders of PM are set to benefit from a large value growth potential hidden in UHM and PM business integration
Interros takes all risks by swapping its shares on UHM shares, giving a free-of-charge option for the PM shareholders either to swap their shares or to keep shares of PM
The final objective is to create an additional value for shareholders, based on UHM share
Reasons for that – a longer history of UHM being a public company, a significant range of capital market instruments in operation (prime savings for PM shareholders)
