Sibur Russian Tires could be sold to strategic investor or float a stake on Western stock exchange by year-end 2007
The media reported quoting Vice President of Sibur Dmitry Konov that Sibur Russian Tires could be either sold off to a strategic investor or its stake could be floated on a Western stock exchange by year-end 2007.
For the record, Sibur’s tire division includes Yaroslval Tire Plant, Voltire-Prom, Omskshina, Uralshina and JV consisting of Matador and Sibur Russian Tires – Matador-Omskshina. At present, Sibur is restructuring its assets and all the company’s plants are to be listed on the balance sheet of Sibur-Russian Tires by year-end 2005.
This news draws attention to the stocks of these companies. We expect to see significant improvements in the company’s financials as part of pre-sales preparation, in particular, its margins, as Yarshina, Voltire and Omskshina posted losses in their 2004 RAS financials. In addition, Sibur’s tire assets accounted for 40.9% of the Russian tire market in 2004, which could considerably drive up the investment appeal of Sibur Russian Tires stocks in the eyes of the company’s large international competitors.
