Soul Patts-Brickworks Simplification Seen as a Key Positive -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
06/03

0148 GMT - The removal of a complex cross-holding is seen by Macquarie analysts as a key positive in the proposed merger between Brickworks and Washington H. Soul Pattinson. They write in a note that the combination will simplify a structure under which Brickworks owns 26% of Soul Patts, and the investment manager owns 43% of the building-products manufacturer. The analysts stay neutral on Brickworks, observing that much of its post-announcement rise was fueled by a jump in Soul Patts' shares, which are trading at a 40% premium to the underlying value of the company's net assets. Macquarie lifts its Brickworks target price 24% to A$32.20. The stock is down 2.1% at A$34.37. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
