- Tuesday, January 12, 2010, 2:28 PM Italy's Ferrero drops out of plans to join a Hershey (HSY) bid for Cadbury (CBY), reportedly as it's "not in line with the family's strategy." 1 Comment
- Monday, January 11, 2010, 7:13 AM Ferrero is talking to banks to secure a syndicated loan of around $4.5B to finance a possible joint bid with Hershey (HSY) for Cadbury (CBY). Ferrero has until Feb 2. to make a counteroffer to Kraft's (KFT) bid. Comment!
- Thursday, January 7, 2010, 9:36 AM Shares of Cadbury (CBY) dip below Kraft's (KFT) £10.6B bid price for the first time. Reports of a possible counterbid from Hershey (HSY) were largely dismissed after Cadbury said it was not looking for a white knight bidder, and amid doubts Hershey could finance a deal. KFT -1.2%. CBY -0.3%. Comment!
- Thursday, January 7, 2010, 8:04 AM The deal is far from sealed, but the European Commission approves Kraft's (KFT) proposed takeover of Cadbury (CBY) as long as Kraft sells Cadbury's Polish and Romanian chocolate businesses. Meanwhile, Cadbury is reportedly meeting with Hershey (HSY) to encourage a rival offer. Comment!
- Wednesday, January 6, 2010, 7:36 AM It's tough to be Kraft (KFT); Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) voted against Kraft's planned share issuance and just a paltry 1.5% of Cadbury (CBY) shareholders have accepted Kraft's bid so far. Meanwhile, Hershey (HSY) is still deciding whether it wants to make Cadbury a better offer. 1 Comment
- Monday, January 4, 2010, 7:30 AM Kraft (KFT) may face competition as it preps to sweeten its hostile £10B takeover bid for Cadbury (CBY). Reports say Italian confectioner Ferrero has met with Hershey (HSY) and several private equity firms about a possible joint bid for the British confectioner. Comment!
- Thursday, December 10, 2009, 11:50 AM British and Irish Cadbury (CBY) workers are launching a campaign to help fend off a hostile takeover bid from Kraft (KFT), warning of job losses and pay cuts along with a giant debt burden for the U.K. confectioner if it goes through; for now, the union isn't focused on a possible competing bid from Hershey (HSY). Comment!
- Friday, December 4, 2009, 8:08 AM Kraft (KFT) plans to launch its £9.8B ($16.4B) hostile bid for Britain's Cadbury (CBY) Friday, one business day ahead of the Monday deadline, sources say. Under U.K. takeover rules, Kraft has until day 46, or the middle of January, to raise its bid, while Cadbury will have until day 14 to publish its defense. Hershey (HSY) is thought to be mulling a $17B bid for Cadbury - an offer the U.K. confectioner has indicated it would prefer. Comment!
- Wednesday, December 2, 2009, 11:17 AM With Monday's deadline approaching for Kraft (KFT +0.9%) to submit its offer documents in a $16.2B hostile bid for Cadbury (CBY +0.5%), the conglomerate appears to be sticking to its slow-and-steady plan despite potential pressure from Ferrero or Hershey (HSY +0.9%). "There would be no point in Kraft changing the offer until someone else shows their hand," says an analyst. (recently: I, II) Comment!
- Saturday, November 28, 2009, 4:34 AM Cadbury (CBY) chief executive Todd Stitzer signals some support for a Hershey (HSY) acquisition bid, saying the companies have similar cultural values - which Cadbury might lose if the British confectioner were acquired by Kraft (KFT). 1 Comment
- Wednesday, November 25, 2009, 11:47 AM The Hershey Trust (HSY) reaches out to Pennsylvania's attorney general - who has broad power to regulate charitable trusts - likely to smooth political issues that might hinder a potential sole Hershey bid for Cadbury (CBY). Comment!
- Monday, November 23, 2009, 10:49 AM Cadbury (CBY +2.3%) CEO Roger Carr says he would prefer a merger with Hershey (HSY -0.8%) rather than Kraft (KFT +0.7%), but added all bids could fail if they're not sweet enough. Sources say Kraft is considering increasing its bid or offering more cash. Comment!
- Sunday, November 22, 2009, 5:46 PM Not to be left out, Nestle (NSRGY.PK) is thought to be considering a bid for Cadbury (CBY) to challenge Kraft's (KFT) $16.7B hostile offer and a potential counterbid by Hershey (HSY). One analyst says Nestle could "blow Kraft out of the water" if it ops to execute an option to sell its majority stake in Alcon (ACL) to Novartis (NVS) for more than $20B come January. 3 Comments
- Saturday, November 21, 2009, 8:00 AM Hershey (HSY) may go it alone on a $17B bid for Cadbury (CBY), without potential partner Ferrero. But Hershey is controlled by the Hershey Trust, a charitable group thought to have scuttled deals before. Key boardmembers may be pushing the trust to this change of heart. (previously) Comment!
- Friday, November 20, 2009, 4:12 PM Hershey Trust (HSY) pushing for a $17B bid for Cadbury (CBY) - which would top Kraft's (KFT) $16.7B offer and include more cash. CBY up 1.4% AH. (WSJ) Comment!
- Friday, November 20, 2009, 8:38 AM Ferrero and Hershey (HSY) would probably break up Cadbury (CBY) into separate businesses if the takeover bid the two companies are mulling for the U.K. candy maker should succeed. Ferrero is reportedly interested in Cadbury's lucrative candy and gum business. Comment!
