The potential sale of Punch International’s share in Xeikon was first mooted at the turn of the year, with the potential suitor as-yet unnamed.

Punch International holds 65.68 percent of the shares in Xeikon, and said the party interested in acquiring its stake in Xeikon has offered €5.85 per share.

Talks are at an advanced stage and could be completed in the short term, Punch International added, but there is currently no security on all terms and conditions.

Xeikon said that if the acquisition of Punch International’s share interest is confirmed, the buyer will be obliged to make a mandatory offer for all remaining Xeikon shares.
