    BASF, LetterOne Sign Agreement to Merge Wintershall, DEA

    ...

    BASF, LetterOne Sign Agreement to Merge Wintershall, DEA
    09.28.18
    BASF and LetterOne signed a definitive transaction agreement to merge their respective oil and gas businesses in a joint venture, which will operate under the name Wintershall DEA.

    “With Wintershall DEA we create the leading independent European exploration and production company with international operations in core regions. By combining the two German-based entities, BASF and LetterOne lay the basis for further profitable growth,” said Dr. Hans-Ulrich Engel, vice chairman of the board of executive directors and CFO of BASF SE.

    In the medium term, BASF and LetterOne envisage listing Wintershall DEA through an Initial Public Offering.

    The closing of the transaction is expected in the first half of 2019, subject to approvals of merger control and foreign investment authorities as well as mining authorities and the German Federal Network Agency. Until closing, Wintershall and DEA will continue to operate as independent companies.

    In 2017, the combined business of Wintershall and DEA had pro-forma sales of €4.7 billion, income from operations before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of €2.8 billion and net income of €740 million. In 2017, pro-forma hydrocarbon production of Wintershall and DEA totaled 210 million barrels of oil equivalent; this equals a production of around 575,000 BOE per day. The joint venture will have a regionally more balanced footprint with growth opportunities in the core regions and strives for a daily production of 750,000 to 800,000 BOE between 2021 and 2023. Through the merger, synergies of at least €200 million per year are expected as of the third year following the closing of the transaction.

    Mario Mehren, CEO of Wintershall, has been determined to be the chairman of the management board and CEO of Wintershall DEA. Maria Moraeus Hanssen, CEO of DEA, has been determined as the deputy CEO and COO of the joint venture. In addition, Thilo Wieland, member of the board of executive directors of Wintershall, and Hugo Dijkgraaf, managing director of Wintershall Norge, will be on the five-member Management Board of Wintershall DEA. The appointment of the CFO will take place at a later date.

    LetterOne will contribute all its shares in DEA Deutsche Erdöl AG into Wintershall Holding GmbH against the issuance of new shares of the company to LetterOne. Wintershall will then be renamed Wintershall DEA, which will be headquartered in Kassel and Hamburg. BASF will initially hold 67 percent and LetterOne 33 percent of Wintershall DEA’s ordinary shares reflecting the value of the respective exploration and production businesses of Wintershall and DEA. To reflect the value of Wintershall’s gas transportation business, BASF will receive additional preference shares. No later than 36 months after closing but in all cases before an IPO, these preference shares will be converted into ordinary shares of the company Wintershall DEA. This will result in a total shareholding of BASF in Wintershall DEA of 72.7 percent.
