中国石化新闻网讯 据WENews 网站11月13日休斯顿报道,美国通用电气(GE)周二表示,该公司将出售其在油田服务提供商贝克休斯中的部分股份,这是该公司筹集现金和偿还债务的最新举措。 通用电气在2017年7月收购了贝克休斯。为了降低其债务并将重点放在其核心业务喷气发动机、发电厂和可再生能源上,通用电气进行了组织和财务改革。 通用电气首席执行官拉里周一表示,该公司将“紧急”出售资产来减少高负债。通用电气股价日前重挫10%,其债务担保成本触及六年高位。 通用电气今年6月曾表示,该公司将在未来两到三年内出售所持贝克休斯的部分股份。作为交易的一部分,贝克休斯将回购通用电气的另一部分股份。通用电气目前持有贝克休斯的62.2%股份。 两家公司在一份声明中称,预计这些交易将使通用电气在贝克休斯的持股比例维持在50%以上。 李峻 编译自 WENews 原文如下: GE to Sell Portion of Stake in Baker Hughes WENews/November 13, 2018/Houston
General Electric Co is selling a portion of its stake in oilfield services provider Baker Hughes, the U.S. industrial conglomerate said on Tuesday, its latest move to raise cash and repay debt. GE, which bought Baker Hughes in July 2017, has made organizational and financial changes to lower its debt and focus on its core businesses of jet engines, power plants and renewable energy. On Monday, GE Chief Executive Officer Larry Culp said the company will sell assets with “urgency” to reduce its high debt, as GE shares tumbled as much as 10 percent and the cost of insuring its debt hit a six-year high. GE said in June it would sell its stake in Baker Hughes over the next two to three years. As part of the deal, Baker Hughes will buy back another part of GE’s stake. GE currently owns 62.2 percent of the company. The transactions are expected to maintain GE’s stake in Baker Hughes above 50 percent, the companies said in a statement.
