RATIONALE FOR THE MERGER Sample Clauses

RATIONALE FOR THE MERGER. ‌ In recent years, the banking sector is experimenting a process of restructuring and progressive concentration, caused by the need for banks to improve their efficiency and optimise operating costs in a climate of long-term reduction of interest margins as a result of negative interest rates and the economy’s deleveraging process. Although the current global COVID-19 pandemic has reaffirmed the fundamental role of banks in supporting families and companies, which in many cases have seen their sources of income drastically cut, this crisis will cause interest rates to remain at very low levels, or even negative, for a period longer than expected. It will also cause a rise in defaulting and bad debt provisions, negatively impacting on the profitability of banks. This backdrop requires seeking larger scales in the banking sector. In recent years, CaixaBank and Bankia have positioned themselves as the second and fourth biggest credit entities in Spain, respectively, in terms of assets, while completing their conversion from savings to stock-listed banks, updating and improving their corporate governance, and adapting to the new regulatory framework arising out of Basel III, implemented in the EU with the Capital Requirements and Bank Resolution Directives. However, the current pandemic, along with other structural challenges faced by Eurozone banks (digital transformation, low profitability in the climate of interest rates described, etc.), make the proposed CaixaBank and Bankia merger a strategic opportunity for both entities. Thus, as stated by the Single Supervisory Mechanism on numerous occasions, a merger such as the one projected will enable tackling the above-mentioned structural challenges from a stronger position. In particular, it will enable reaching a greater number of clients with an optimised cost structure and allow the two entities to jointly make digital transformation investments, which will allow making new investments in a more efficient manner. The merger of the intervening companies is of great strategic value given (i) the strong brand recognition of both entities, (ii) their very sound liquidity structure, (iii) their consolidated solvency, and (iv) the opportunity represented by the fostering of concentration operations through the publication of proposed guidelines by the European Central Bank, which clears up certain major uncertainties on concentration operations regarding the capital requirements applicable to the resulting entity...

RATIONALE FOR THE MERGER. On 24 May 2021, the deed of merger by absorption of Quabit Inmobiliaria, S.A. (“Quabit”) into Neinor Homes, S.A. (“Neinor”) was registered with the Commercial Registry of Bizkaia. Since then, Neinor has held, directly or indirectly, the entire share capital of the Participating Entities, in accordance with the organisation chart attached hereto as Annex I. The corporate structure shown in the aforementioned schedule, which has been inherited by the Neinor group as a result of the absorption of Quabit, is based on the incorporation of virtually one company for each real estate development project carried out by the Quabit Group (“Quabit’s Structure”). Quabit's Structure, however, departs from the Neinor group's organisational strategy, which is based on corporate segmentation not by real estate development projects but by type of activity or geographical area of development. Hence, the property development activity is carried out by a small number of companies belonging to the group headed by Neinor, each of which groups together multiple real estate development projects throughout Spain (“Neinor’s Structure”). As a result of this structural divergence, the Neinor group's strategy and the evolution of its businesses justify simplifying and streamlining its corporate structure, particularly in view of its size and complexity following the absorption of Quabit, the parent company of a considerable number of subsidiaries that make up the inherited Quabit’s Structure. As indicated in section 12.1 of the joint merger plan of Quabit and Neinor, Neinor has made progress in the analysis of possible overlaps and duplications, as well as economies of scale and synergies arising from the merger by absorption of Quabit. In this regard, the Merger that is the subject of this Joint Merger Plan is the result of a process of rationalisation of the corporate structure of the Neinor group following the merger with Quabit, which is strictly the result of the aforementioned analysis of overlaps and duplications. As indicated above, the absorption of the Absorbed Companies contributes to the achievement of this objective, insofar as it would simplify their management, facilitate the efficient allocation of resources and reduce the administrative costs associated with the existence of the companies, whose activity could be carried out in a grouped manner in any of the development companies belonging to Neinor’s Structure. Indeed, the unification of the assets and activities of t...
RATIONALE FOR THE MERGER. ‌ The boards of directors of the Participating Entities have agreed to promote the merger of both Participating Entities through the Merger, pursuant to the terms of this Joint Merger Plan, with the objective of creating a group that maintains its position as leader in the Spanish development and residential sector in Spain with the aim of increasing its relevance in the Spanish construction market. The merger of the Participating Entities would lead to the creation of value by combining the management capabilities of both groups and operational and financial synergies. In this regard, the boards of directors of Neinor and Xxxxxx consider that there are several reasons favoring the merger of the Participating Entities, highlighting the following: – Combination of complementary businesses: the Merger would create an ambitious real-estate project, with a combined high quality land bank that would allow the construction of more than 16,000 dwellings by the entity resulting from the Merger within the framework of real- estate developments expected to be carried out in the medium term. The combination would also make it possible to integrate the aforementioned combined land portfolio under a well- defined property-development platform with a combined capacity to deliver housing. – Combination value drivers: the Merger would generate various additional benefits due to the integration, that the Participating Entities would not be able to achieve separately, including:
