Portuguese to English: CADE conditionally clears the sale of Liquigás General field: Other Detailed field: Journalism
Source text - Portuguese Cade aprova venda da Liquigás com restrições
Negócio envolveu três atos de concentração distintos, autorizados mediante assinatura de ACC
A venda da Liquigás, subsidiária da Petrobras e líder no mercado nacional de distribuição de Gás Liquefeito de Petróleo (GLP), popularmente conhecido como gás de cozinha, foi autorizada nesta quarta-feira (18/11) pelo Conselho Administrativo de Defesa Econômica (Cade). O negócio abrange três operações distintas envolvendo as empresas Copagaz, Itaúsa, Nacional Gás Butano (NGB) e Fogás. O aval foi condicionado à assinatura de um Acordo em Controle de Concentrações (ACC).
De acordo com o relator do caso, conselheiro Mauricio Oscar Bandeira Maia, a operação foi notificada ao Cade no modelo fix-it-first. “Ou seja, uma operação que, antecipando a análise concorrencial do órgão regulador, já apresenta remédio embutido com o objetivo de sanar eventuais problemas concorrenciais identificados”, esclareceu.
Nesse sentido, as empresas informaram ao Cade que a Copagaz passará a ser a nova controladora da Liquigás, junto com a Itaúsa – que deterá de 45% a 49,99% do capital social e votante da Copagaz. Já a participação da NGB e da Fogás no negócio, segundo as requerentes, teria como objetivo solucionar possíveis preocupações concorrenciais observadas em alguns estados brasileiros, segundo critérios estabelecidos pelo Cade no julgamento da venda da Liquigás para a Ultragaz, vetada pelo órgão antitruste em 2018.
Bandeira Maia explicou também que o ato de concentração corresponde a um novo projeto de desinvestimento da Liquigás e faz parte do plano de otimização de portfólio do Sistema Petrobras. Em seu voto, ressaltou que a estrutura do mercado brasileiro de distribuição de GLP, seja envasado ou a granel, consiste em um oligopólio formado por quatro empresas: Liquigás, Ultragaz, NGB e Supergasbrás. Segundo o conselheiro, elas dominam cerca de 80% do setor há mais de uma década.
Translation - English CADE conditionally clears the sale of Liquigás
The transaction involved three different M&As granted upon a merger control agreement
This Wednesday (18 November), the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) conditionally cleared the sale of Liquigás, a subsidiary of Petrobras and market leader in the Brazilian distribution market of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), also known as cooking gas. The deal concerns three different transactions involving the firms Copagaz, Itaúsa, Nacional Gás Butano (NGB) and Fogás. The approval was conditioned to the signing of a Merger Control Agreement (ACC in its acronym in Portuguese).
According to the rapporteur commissioner of the case, Mauricio Oscar Bandeira Maia, the transaction has been reported to CADE by a fix-it-first remedy. "That is, a transaction that, prior to the antitrust analysis, already presents a remedy aiming at mitigating potential competition issues," he explained.
Thus, the firms reported to CADE that Copagaz will be the new holder of Liquigás along with Itaúsa that will hold from 45% to 49.99% of the share capital and voting stock of Copagaz. According to the petitioners, the shareholdings of NGB and Fogás aimed at mitigating potential competition concerns evidenced in some Brazilian states, in accordance to criteria established by CADE during the adjudication on the sale of Liquigás to Ultragaz not cleared by the agency in 2018.
Rapporteur Bandeira Maia also clarified that the transaction regards a new divestiture project of Liquigás and is part of the portfolio optimisation plan of Petrobras System. In his vote, Maia stressed that the structure of the Brazilian market of LPG, either bottled or bulked, consists of an oligopoly established by four companies: Liquigás, Ultragaz, NGB and Supergasbrás. According to the commissioner, the firms have around 80% of the market share for more than a decade.
