Sika hopes to complete acquisition of MBCC Group in the first half of 2023

Switzerland/UK: Sika says it plans to complete its planned acquisition of MBCC Group in the first half of 2023 following the decision by the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) to further investigate the merger. Previously the construction chemicals company intended to close the transaction by the end of 2022. Sika signed a deal to buy MBCC Group, formerly BASF Construction Chemicals, in November 2021.

Thomas Hasler, the chief executive officer of Sika, said "Sika has already received unconditional regulatory approval across a number of jurisdictions, including Japan, China, Brazil, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Thailand. For a transaction of this magnitude a detailed analysis is not unusual. The adapted timeline for the closing does not impact the strategic attractiveness of the transaction. It remains highly accretive, and our expectation that it will generate annual synergies of Euro160m - 185m is unchanged."
