HAMBURG (dpa-AFX) - The financial investor KKR intends to acquire the remaining shares in the solar and wind farm operator Encavis. The offer is 17.50 euros per share, the company announced in Hamburg on Friday. The US financial investor already holds around 87.73 percent of Encavis and had announced its intention to acquire the remaining shares and delist the company from the stock exchange. A corresponding delisting agreement has already been concluded with Encavis, in which the company will apply for the delisting of the Encavis shares before the end of the acceptance period, it said.

A consortium led by KKR had submitted a voluntary public takeover bid in mid-March, also for EUR 17.50 per share. According to earlier information, the offer valued the Hamburg-based company at a good 2.8 billion euros in total./nas/stk
