Reuters reported that German steel distributor Kloeckner & Co is not working on a bid for Thyssenkrupp¡¯s Materials Services unit. A spokesman for the company said in response to a media report that ¡°There are currently neither talks between Kloeckner & Co and Thyssenkrupp over a tie-up with the Material Services division nor are we preparing an offer for it.¡±
German monthly Manager Magazin earlier reported that Kloeckner CEO Gisbert Ruehl would soon propose a joint venture under the leadership of his company, taking advantage of growing shareholder criticism over Thyssenkrupp¡¯s slow turnaround.
Ruehl had said in October that parts of Thyssenkrupp¡¯s Materials Services, which generates more than twice the annual sales of Kloeckner, would be a good strategic fit.
About two thirds of Materials Services¡¯ EUR 13.8 billion in sales come from Thyssenkrupp¡¯s materials distribution business, which competes with Kloeckner, Salzgitter and U.S.-listed Reliance Steel & Aluminum.
