Sept. 22 (Bloomberg) -- Siemens-Dresser Rand deal “may not
be the end” for Sulzer, which confirmed it was looking at
Dresser-Rand amid potential compressor M&A, Credit Suisse
analyst Julian Mitchell writes in note.
* DOV looking to expand fluids division via M&A
* SPW may also be interested in tie-up
* DRC value at ~14.5x 2015 EV/Ebidta by SIE GR, making IR’s
ongoing acquisition of CAM “look cheap”
* Transactions mark ongoing consolidation period in which
private equity/LBOs have purchased Sundstrand, GDI
businesses after SPW “came close to a deal”
* NOTE: Earlier, Sulzer says DRC talks terminated,
concentrating on other opportunities; Baird says DRC
unlikely to get competing bid
* NOTE: SIE GR bid for DRC at 14x consensus Ebitda: Bloomberg
