SMIT intends to sell its 50% interest in SmitWijs Towage
Rotterdam, 11 October 2006
SMIT has the intention to sell its 50% interest in SmitWijs Towage to the other shareholder SvitzerWijsmuller. Both shareholders are of the opinion that these ocean towage activities will have a stronger position towards the future when under control of one party.
The cyclical nature of ocean towage activities is not compatible with SMIT’s strategy of growth and stability.
The activities will be continued by SvitzerWijsmuller with the current team of Dutch officers.
SMIT will discuss the consequences of the above mentioned intention with the Unions and its Works Council.
Above mentioned intended transaction will not effect the results of SMIT.
