W.R. Grace & Co.
Industrial conglomerate Standard Industries Holdings Inc. has acquired specialty chemicals maker W.R. Grace & Co. in a $7 billion all cash deal.
Plastics-related products made by Columbia, Md.-based Grace include polyolefin catalysts for the production of polypropylene and polyethylene resins, as well as surface modifiers for thin polymer films.
Grace also licenses Unipol-brand gas phase PP process technology for production of a broad range of PP resins. Grace acquired the Unipol PP technology from Dow for $500 million in 2013. Unipol originally was developed by Union Carbide Corp.
Under terms of the agreement, New York-based Standard will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Grace common stock for $70 per share in cash. That price represents a premium of almost 60 percent over Grace s closing stock price of $44.05 on Nov. 6. That was the last trading day prior to the announcement of 40 North Management LLC s initial proposal to acquire Grace.
