Meridian shareholder plans to challenge takeover price
Article Abstract:
Meridian Technologies Inc.'s minority shareholder Global Strategy Investment Funds (GSIF) intends to ask the court to require Teksid SpA and Norsk Hydro Produksjon AS to pay more than C$11 per share for their 44% stake in Toronto, Ontario-based Meridian. The minority shareholder said that C$11 is at the low end of the price range recommended by RBC Dominion Securities Inc. GSIF said that the reasonable price would have been C$13 or C$14. John Sartz, vice president of investments at GSIF, said that they are ready to accept a price lower than C$13 or C$14 but not as low as C$11. GSIF will ask the court to fix a fair value for the shares. David Jackson, lawyer for Meridian, and Elvio del Sorbo, however, said that the consolidation was in accordance with the laws and regulations.

Husky Injection issues profit warning
Article Abstract:
Husky Injection Molding Systems Ltd has announced that its profit for FY1999 will be around 20 to 30 cents per share, far below the analysts' forecast of 48 cents. The company attributed the low earnings to its lower sales resulting from Brazil's curreny devaluation, the Asian economic crisis and overcapacity in Europe.
