Midweek M&A Madness
Now that the weather has finally warmed up, plenty of M&A bankers are hoping the market for deals will as well. We’ve noticed a few more targets coming to market in recent weeks and have compiled a list of some of those we’ve come across. Our sources are various news reports and the Buyouts “Seeking Buyers” list. The following companies (among many others) are either formally considering “strategic alternatives,” reported to be on the block or are rumored to be in sales talks. For prior lists, see below, and send any additions my way. Neo Material Technologies Inc., backed by Pala Investments AG, is believed to be an acquisition target, according to Dow Jones. Smith & Hawken, the luxury garden supply retailer owned by Scotts Miracle-Gro, will liquidate its assets. Noveko International Inc, a Canadian medical equipment maker, said it is considering all possible options for its Bolduc Leroux Inc unit.
