US EditionBaker Hughes bets on LNG, data center demand with $13.6 billion Chart Industries deal
UNITED STATES, JUL 28 – Baker Hughes offers a 22% premium to acquire Chart Industries, aiming to boost its natural gas and LNG business and surpassing Flowserve’s earlier $19 billion merger plan.
- Earlier this month, the Financial Times reported Baker Hughes is nearing a $13.6 billion cash acquisition of Chart Industries, though the deal is not final and may change.
- That pact, struck last month, would be displaced by the Baker Hughes deal, sources said.
- Following the FT report, Chart Industries' stock rose more than 17% to $202, with a deal valued at $210 per share, a 22% premium.
- Following the bid, Chart Industries' board terminated its deal with Flowserve, sources said, after Baker Hughes' higher bid prompted reconsideration.
- In the coming days, the deal is likely to be announced, and it would strengthen Baker Hughes' industrial and energy technology business unit, a major profit contributor.
