海航投資Global Eagle未獲美國監管機構放行

Chinese conglomerate HNA Group’s planned $416 million investment in a US in-flight entertainment and Internet-services provider collapsed after the two companies failed to get approval from Washington, in a setback for the acquisitive group.

由於未能獲得華盛頓方面的批准，中國綜合企業集團海航集團(HNA Group)計劃對一家美國機上娛樂和聯網服務提供商投資4.16億美元的交易失敗了，這傢俱有收購意識的集團遭到了一次挫折。

The proposal for HNA’s Beijing Shareco Technologies to invest in Global Eagle Entertainment Inc. was terminated after failing to obtain the go-ahead from the Committee on Foreign Investment, Global Eagle said in a regulatory filing late on Tuesday US time. The investment was first announced in November.

Global Eagle Entertainment Inc.於美國時間週二晚間提交監管文件稱，海航旗下的北京喜樂航科技股份有限公司(Beijing Shareco Technologies)對其投資的提議被終止，因爲該交易未能獲得美國外國投資委員會(CFIUS)的放行。該投資計劃最早於去年11月對外公佈。

“On July 25, 2017, the company and Shareco terminated the Shareco Investment Agreement as a result of the parties’ inability to obtain the required approval of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) prior to the outside date under the Shareco Investment Agreement,” Global Eagle said.

“2017年7月25日，由於無法在喜樂航投資協議規定的最後日期之前從美國外國投資委員會獲得批准，本公司與喜樂航終止了喜樂航投資協議，”Global Eagle表示。

Based in the Chinese island of Hainan, the company’s $40bn deal spree in recent years — it became Deutsche Bank’s largest shareholder by building up to a 9.9 per cent stake — has brought increased scrutiny from Beijing and Washington.

海航的總部位於中國海南省，該公司近些年來高達400億美元的大肆併購——海航累計收購德銀(Deutsche Bank)9.9%的股權，成爲該行最大股東——已引發了中美兩國政府的更多審視。
