BlackRock’s GIP nears
$38 bln deal to acquire AES Corp, shares surge - FT
Investing.com-- BlackRock (NYSE:BLK)-owned Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP) is close to sealing a
$38 billion deal to acquire U.S. utility group AES Corp (NYSE:AES), in what would rank among the largest infrastructure takeovers on record, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday.
Citing people briefed on the matter, the FT said GIP could announce the acquisition within days, though talks remain subject to change.
The deal would value AES at around
$38 billion, including its
$29 billion in debt, giving it an enterprise value far above its current
$9.4 billion market capitalisation, the report stated.
