US investor Elliott walks away from offer for UK's Currys

LONDON (Reuters) -U.S. investor Elliott Advisors does not intend to make an offer for Currys, saying the board of the British electricals retailer would not engage with it. Shares in Currys, which last month rejected an improved 757 million pounds ($973 million) proposal from Elliott, were down 9% in early trading. "Following multiple attempts to engage with Currys' board, all of which were rejected, it is not in an informed position to make an improved offer for Currys on the basis of the public information available to it," Elliott said on Monday.

UK's Currys rejects $951 million bid from US suitor Elliott

LONDON (Reuters) -Britain's Currys said it rejected an improved 757 million pound ($951 million) bid from U.S. investor Elliott Advisors, in the latest twist in a potential takeover battle with a rival Chinese suitor for the electricals retailer. China-based online giant JD.com has said it is also considering an offer for Currys, but it has yet to show its cards. Currys said on Tuesday that Elliott's second approach came in at 67 pence, compared to the U.S. investor's initial 62 pence bid, but the company said that was not enough.

Analysis-With Currys buyout, China's JD.com could get hungered short-cut to Europe expansion

BEIJING/LONDON (Reuters) -If JD.com does acquire British electronics retailer Currys, the Chinese ecommerce giant would get the store and warehouse network it needs to expand rapidly in the UK and Europe at a bargain-basement price. JD's interest in the struggling retailer, unveiled on Monday, underscores the Chinese firm's efforts to deepen its overseas presence as a counterweight to weak demand and cut-throat competition in its domestic market, analysts said.
