SYNERGY POTENTIAL OF THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION Sample Clauses

SYNERGY POTENTIAL OF THE PROPOSED ACQUISITION. The Fnac Board believes that the Proposed Acquisition will result in compelling financial benefits to the Combined Group, including total annual pre-tax cost savings of at least €85 million per annum. This amount is premised upon Fnac’s intention to maintain separate Fnac and Xxxxx brands, stores and e- commerce platforms following the completion of the Proposed Acquisition. It does not include any revenue synergies that may arise from the Proposed Acquisition and does not take account of the impact of any remedies that may be imposed by the relevant anti-trust authorities. The actual completion date of the Proposed Acquisition will be dependent in part on the extent of the review procedures of the relevant anti-trust authorities. Assuming the Proposed Acquisition completes by no later than September 2016, approximately 10 per cent. of these synergies would be realised in 2016, rising to 60 per cent. in 2017, 95 per cent. in 2018 and 100 per cent. thereafter. The one-off costs to deliver these savings, including additional capital expenditures, are expected to total approximately €65 million. The aggregate annual amount of synergies of at least €85 million referred to above is expected to be split as follows:  approximately half of the identified savings are expected to arise from purchasing synergies in the retail categories of xxxxx goods, grey goods and small domestic appliances in which both Fnac and Xxxxx operate; and  the other half of the identified savings are expected to arise notably from optimisation of warehousing and transport activities, from the integration of certain headquarter and support functions within the UK, France and Belgium, and from savings in procured services. The statements above of estimated cost synergies relate to future actions and circumstances which inherently involve risks, uncertainties and contingencies. Accordingly, the cost synergies referred to may not be achieved within the time periods specified or may be achieved in a different form to that which is currently envisaged by the Fnac Board. Appendix 6 includes reports in connection with the Quantified Financial Benefits Statement from Ernst & Young and Rothschild, pursuant to the requirements of the City Code. Ernst & Young and Rothschild have given and not withdrawn their consent to the publication of their respective reports in the form and context in which they are included. These statements are not intended to be a profit forecast and should not be interprete...
