Tortuous process justified by the result

Article Abstract:

The purchase of Vianova Resins by Morgan Grenfell private equity was a very complicated deal due to the various locations of company buildings, the sale of Herberts a major customer of Vianova, and the unpredicable financial markets. Vianova had operating profits of 77 million deutschmarks in 1977. Herberts was also sold at a later date to DuPont. Hoechst was selling the two businesses as part of a major restructuring exercise due to a decline in profits, to a forecasted 900 million deutschmarks in 1999, from 2 billion deutschmarks in 1996. MGPE planned to support the management in the deal.
