Reuters•3 days agoTurmoil at Thyssenkrupp marks battle for Germany's economic identity
When Thyssenkrupp CEO Guido Kerkhoff announced plans to list its prized elevators unit last week, he set off a battle for the conglomerate's future that could test Germany's brand of "social market" capitalism. Kerkhoff had little choice but to think the unthinkable when the company's share price sank to a 15-year low on May 8. Now Thyssenkrupp's future is in play, with activist investors on the one side baying for a restructuring of the group to drive up value, and its top shareholder - the charitable Krupp foundation - and workers on the other side with a mandate to protect the unity of the company and jobs.

Reuters•4 days agoThyssenkrupp shares rise on hopes of deal with Finland's Kone
Shares in Thyssenkrupp rose as much as 7.2% on Thursday after Reuters reported Finnish company Kone is assessing the viability of a bid for the German conglomerate's 14 billion euro (12 billion pounds) elevators division. Thyssenkrupp last week dropped plans to spin off its capital goods business after months of shareholder criticism, and opted instead to list elevators, its most profitable division. Four people familiar with the matter said it was not clear if Kone could fund an all-cash bid and whether or not the deal would face significant anti-trust hurdles similar to Thyssenkrupp's failed steel joint venture with India's Tata Steel.

Thyssenkrupp's elevator unit posts margin drop ahead of IPO
FRANKFURT/DUESSELDORF, Germany (Reuters) - Thyssenkrupp's elevator business, the conglomerate's crown jewel that it plans to list, saw operating margins fall in the second quarter due to higher material costs that also hit Swiss rival Schindler. The unit, which also competes with Finland's Kone and United Technologies Corp's Otis, is Thyssenkrupp's prize asset and investors have long demanded that it needs to be listed, merged with a peer, or sold. Adjusted operating profit (EBIT) margins at the division, however, fell to 10.6% in the second quarter, down from 11.6% a year earlier, Thyssenkrupp said on Tuesday.
