Chiquita agrees to sell itself to Safra Group, Cutrale Group for approximately $681 million
– canadianbusiness.com
NEW YORK, N.Y. – Chiquita Brands International Inc. has agreed to sell itself to two Brazilian companies for approximately $681 million. The deal comes just days after the fresh produce company’s shareholders rejected plans to merge with Irish fruit importer Fyffes.
Chiquita said Monday that it will be acquired by the investment firm Safra Group and the juice company Cutrale Group for $14.50 per share, a 2 per cent premium to its Friday closing price of $14.16.
The companies put the transaction’s value at about $1.3 billion, including the assumption of Chiquita’s debt.
Chiquita’s board unanimously approved the deal, which is targeted to close by the end of the year or in early 2015. Chiquita will become a subsidiary of the Cutrale-Safra group once the transaction is complete.
On Friday Chiquita and Fyffes PLC gave notice to terminate their proposed merger agreement after Chiquita’s stockholders didn’t approve a revised transaction agreement between the two companies during a special shareholders meeting…

Get a discount on sale of no-dog condos

Own a dog? Thinking of having kids? Want to replace the carpet for hardwood? Then you better be careful what condo you buy.According to a recent study, published this year in the Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics, building restrictions in condos can dramatically impact the sale price.
The study analyzed resale condo restrictions and their respective selling prices for 22,000 condos sold in the Ft. Lauderdale, Florida area. The authors found that when housing prices fell, by in large, condos with restrictions were sold at a discount, compared to similar units with no restrictions.

According to Carter, a restriction on the age of the owner is seen as a benefit when real estate is doing well—prompting buyers to pay a premium for these condos—but the restriction appears to force a discount on the condo sale price when the housing market is suffering…
