(中央社記者吳靜君臺北18日電)公平會今天表示,李長榮公司擬與美商Kraton結合案,因整體經濟利益大于進行限制競爭的不利益,因此不禁止此結合案。公平交易委員會表示,李長榮化學工業股份有限公司擬透過持有100%股份的關系企業間接持有Kraton 50%的股份。而Kraton與李長榮公司結合后在苯乙烯熱塑性彈性體(SBC)市占率總和超過1/3;且民國102年度李長榮公司于我國異丙醇產品市占率超過1/4。公平會指出,此案的效應主要影響是SBC市場,屬水平結合型態。結合后參與結合事業于國內SBC市占率總和排名第1名,將成為SBC最大業者。公平會說,國內SBC市場還有3家從事SBC制造及銷售業務,且下游業者的需求也可從國外事業進口,參與結合事業結合后仍需面對市場競爭壓力。且未有特殊法令限制、產品制造也無取得特殊專利授權的必要,又我國對于SBC的進口并無關稅或非關稅的貿易障礙,潛在競爭者可自行制造或進口國外業者的產品,參與國內SBC市場競爭尚無明顯障礙。公平會認為,該案對整體經濟之利益大于限制競爭的不利益,所以不禁止李長榮與Kraton結合。1030618

The Fair Trade Commission (FTC) said yesterday that it approved an application by LCY Chemical Corp (李長榮化學) to merge its styrenic block copolymer (SBC) unit with Kraton Performance Polymers Inc of the US, in accordance with Article 12 of the Fair Trade Act (公平交易法).
On Jan. 28, LCY Chemical, whose businesses involve the manufacture and distribution of polypropylene, solvents and other chemical products, and Kraton announced that they had inked an agreement to form a new company with ownership split evenly between the two.
The two companies said in a statement distributed by PRNewswire that the transaction will combine LCY Chemical’s cost-effective and innovative SBC operations and Kraton’s broad product portfolio and innovation platform to form a US$2 billion venture.
The new entity will be based in Houston, Texas, and led by Kraton president and chief executive officer Kevin Fogarty, the statement said.
It will be incorporated in the UK and listed on the New York Stock Exchange, it said.
In a press release posted on the commission’s Web site yesterday, the FTC said the merger would not stop other companies from entering the SBC market.
“The merger is not expected to pose a significant threat to competition within the market, and the overall economic benefit of the deal is greater than the negative impact of restrictions on competition,” the commission said.
The deal, which is also subject to regulatory approvals in the US, China and Turkey, is expected to close in the fourth quarter of the year, LCY Chemical said.
