4. | rationale for amalgamation/ | With a view to accelerate growth of the business, |
merger | improve operational efficiencies and explore | |
strategic choices for its business, ZAHL has been | ||
exploring various strategic options with the help of | ||
leading investment advisors to create synergy in the | ||
operations of its business. ZAHL initiated the process | ||
to look for strategic and/or financial partners who | ||
share the same values and growth ambition for the | ||
business with an intention to invite them to take | ||
equity stake in ZAHL. In the process, to explore | ||
merger or combination of its business with such | ||
partner, for sale of part of the securities, assets or | ||
business or any other form of strategic / financial | ||
alliance. | ||
During the process, ZAHL realized that the preference | ||
of the investors was to get majority or total and | ||
absolute control of the business of its Animal | ||
Healthcare Established Markets Undertaking (rather | ||
than becoming a significant minority partner in | ||
ZAHL). | ||
In view of the foregoing, ZAHL found it commercially | ||
prudent to transfer the Undertaking to the | ||
Purchaser. | ||
ZAHL will continue to pursue business opportunities | ||
in US and certain European countries through Animal | ||
Healthcare Emerging Markets Undertaking. | ||
