This excerpt taken from the C 10-Q filed May 4, 2007. Tender Offer for Nikko Cordial On April 26, 2007, Citigroup completed its successful tender offer to become the majority shareholder of Nikko Cordial Corporation in Japan. Approximately 541 million shares were tendered for approximately $7.7 billion. Following the May 9, 2007 scheduled closing date Citigroup will own a total ownership stake in excess of 60%. Once the tender offer is closed, Citigroup will consolidate Nikko and its operations with the minority stake disclosed as Minority Interest. This acquisition accelerates Citigroup's growth strategy in the world's second largest economy and is intended to provide a broad base of global products and services to Nikko Cordial's client network. |
