MV Agusta

Purchase and sale by Proton

Kenyataan di bawah dipetik dari website Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MV_Agusta

Heavily indebted, the manufacturer was bought by Malaysian carmaker Proton in December 2004 for 70 million euro. In December 2005 however, Proton decided to cut its ties with MV Agusta and sold it to GEVI SpA, a Genoa-based financing company related to Carige, for a token euro excluding debt.

In 2006 that financing company, GEVI SpA, with 65% of the share capital, had refinanced MV Agusta, and by so doing allowed the company to continue, and brought MV Agusta ownership back to Italy.

Husqvarna sale to BMW

In July 2007 MV Agusta Motor S.p.A, sold the Husqvarna motorcycle brand to BMW Motorrad for an undisclosed amount. Accorting to MV Agusta president Claudio Castiglioni, the sale was a strategic step to concentrate all of the company's resources in order to expand MV Agusta and Cagiva presence in the international markets having more financial resources for new models development.

Persoalannya, adakah tepat / betul nilai MV Agusta hanya 1 euro ?

Walau bagaimanapun setakat ini, penulis masih belum menemui amaun sebenar pihak BMW membeli MV Agusta ini.

Wallahualam.
