Nota de Prensa


Santander anuncia una oferta de adquisición por el 25% de su filial en Brasil

  • La operación se pagará en acciones de Banco Santander y supondría un número máximo de aproximadamente 665 millones de acciones, equivalente a 4.686 millones de Euros.
  • Esta oferta demuestra la confianza de Santander en su filial brasileña y en su potencial de crecimiento a largo plazo.
  • La oferta, que es voluntaria, no está condicionada a un nivel mínimo de aceptación.
  • La oferta es atractiva para los accionistas de Santander Brasil, que reciben una prima del 20%i.
  • Y para los accionistas de Santander, ya que aumenta el beneficio por acción desde el primer año.
  • Santander Brasil seguirá cotizando en la bolsa de Sao Paulo. Santander mantiene su política de operar a través de filiales autónomas en capital y liquidez y, a ser posible, cotizadas.
  • Las acciones de Banco Santander cotizarán en la bolsa de Sao Paulo.

Madrid, 29 de abril de 2014. El consejo de administración de Banco Santander ha aprobado la realización de una oferta para la adquisición de la totalidad de las acciones de Banco Santander Brasil que no son titularidad del Grupo Santander y que representan, aproximadamente, el 25% del capital de Banco Santander Brasil. Banco Santander ofrecerá una prima del 20% sobre la última cotización. El importe de la operación, que se espera esté culminada en octubre de este año, será pagado en acciones de Banco Santander.

La oferta es voluntaria, de manera que los accionistas minoritarios de Santander Brasil podrán acudir o no a la misma, y no está condicionada a un nivel mínimo de aceptación. Santander adquirirá todas las acciones que acepten la oferta y no tiene intención de excluir de cotización a Santander Brasil ni en la bolsa de Sao Pauloii ni en la de Nueva York. Las acciones de Banco Santander cotizarán en la bolsa de Sao Paulo en forma de Brazilian Depositary Receipts (BDRs).

Los accionistas que acepten la oferta recibirán, en forma de BDRs o de American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), 0,70 acciones nuevas de Banco Santander por cada unit o ADR de Santander Brasiliii.

Si acudiera a la oferta la totalidad del capital que está en manos de inversores minoritarios, Banco Santander tendría que emitir aproximadamente 665 millones de acciones, lo que equivale a un 5,8% del capital actual (4.686 millones de eurosiv).

Esta oferta es una demostración de la confianza de Banco Santander en Brasil y en su filial en este mercado así como en su potencial de crecimiento a largo plazo. Santander ofrece a los accionistas de Santander Brasil la oportunidad de canjear sus acciones con una prima del 20% o continuar como accionista de Santander Brasil.

La operación es buena tanto para los accionistas de Banco Santander Brasil como para los de la matriz, Banco Santander. Para los inversores minoritarios de Banco Santander Brasil, puesto que reciben una prima del 20%, lo que supone un múltiplo de precio sobre beneficios (PER) mayor que el de sus competidores, según el consenso de mercado. Además, lo perciben en acciones de Banco Santander, por lo que van a poder seguir beneficiándose de las ventajas de la exposición a Brasil y de un valor con elevada diversificación y perspectivas de crecimiento.

También es positiva para los accionistas de Banco Santander, puesto que incrementará su beneficio por acción (BPA) desde el primer momento. El consenso de mercado prevé que Santander Brasil obtenga un beneficio cercano a los 6.400 millones de reales brasileños en 2015 (equivalentes a aproximadamente 2.000 millones de euros) de los que, con la participación actual, el Grupo Santander se atribuiría alrededor de 1.500 millones de euros. Por tanto, si acudiera la totalidad del capital en manos de los minoritarios, Santander Brasil aportaría al Grupo Santander aproximadamente 500 millones de euros más en dicho año, incrementando un 1,3% el BPA, incremento que sería del 1,1% en 2016. El impacto en capital sería prácticamente neutral, ya que en el caso de acudir la totalidad de los minoritarios aportaría tres puntos básicos al core capital.

La oferta estará sujeta a las condiciones habituales de este tipo de operaciones, incluyendo la obtención de las correspondientes autorizaciones regulatorias y su aprobación por la junta general de accionistas de Banco Santander.

  • A oferta, que é voluntária, não está condicionada a um nível mínimo de aceitação.
  • A oferta é atraente para os acionistas do Santander Brasil, que recebem um prêmio de 20%i.
  • E para os acionistas do Santander, visto que aumenta o lucro/benefício por ação desde o primeiro ano.

Madrid, 29 de abril de 2014. O conselho de administração do Banco Santander aprovou a realização de uma oferta para a aquisição da totalidade das ações do Banco Santander Brasil que não sejam de titularidade do Grupo Santander e que representam, aproximadamente, 25% do capital do Banco Santander Brasil. O Banco Santander oferecerá um prêmio de 20% sobre a última cotação. O montante da operação, que está prevista para ser concluída em outubro deste ano, será pago em ações do Banco Santander.

A oferta é voluntária, de modo que os acionistas minoritários do Santander Brasil poderão aceitá-la ou não, e não está condicionada a um nível mínimo de aceitação. O Santander adquirirá todas as ações que aceitem a oferta e não possui a intenção de que o Santander Brasil deixe de ser listado na BM&FBovespaii tampouco na bolsa de Nova York. As ações do Banco Santander serão negociadas na BM&FBovespa na forma de Brazilian Depositary Receipts (BDRs).

Os acionistas que aceitarem a oferta receberão, na forma de BDRs ou de American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), 0,70 novas ações do Banco Santander para cada Unit ou ADR do Santander Brasiliii.

Se a totalidade do capital que está nas mãos de acionistas minoritários aderir à oferta, o Banco Santander deverá emitir aproximadamente 665 milhões de ações, o que equivale a 5,8% do capital atual (4.686 milhões de eurosiv).

Esta oferta é uma demonstração da confiança do Banco Santander no Brasil e em sua filial neste mercado, assim como em seu potencial de crescimento a longo prazo. O Santander oferece aos acionistas do Santander Brasil a oportunidade de permutar suas ações com um prêmio de 20% ou permanecer como acionista do Santander Brasil.

Esta operação é vantajosa tanto para os acionistas do Banco Santander Brasil quanto para os da matriz, Banco Santander. Para os acionistas minoritários do Banco Santander Brasil dado que receberão um prêmio de 20%, o que implica um múltiplo de preço por lucro (PER) maior do que o dos seus concorrentes segundo consenso no mercado. Além disso, receberão em ações do Banco Santander, em razão do que poderão continuar se beneficiando das vantagens da exposição ao Brasil, bem como de um ativo com alta diversificação e perspectivas de crescimento.

Também é positiva para os acionistas do Banco Santander, visto que aumentará o seu lucro/benefício por ação (BPA) desde o primeiro momento. Há consenso no mercado em prever que o Santander Brasil obterá um lucro próximo a R$ 6.400 milhões em 2015 (equivalentes a aproximadamente EUR 2.000 milhões) dos quais, com a participação atual, cerca de EUR 1.500 milhões seriam atribuídos ao Grupo Santander. Portanto, se a totalidade do capital nas mãos dos minoritários aderir à oferta, o Santander Brasil trará ao Grupo Santander EUR 500 milhões a mais neste ano, com um aumento de 1,3% do BPA, aumento esse que será de 1,1% em 2016. O impacto da operação no capital seria praticamente neutro, visto que, se todos os acionistas minoritários aderirem à oferta, isso traria três pontos base ao core capital.

A oferta está sujeita às condições usuais deste tipo de operação, incluindo a obtenção das autorizações regulatórias correspondentes e sua aprovação pela assembleia geral de acionistas do Banco Santander.
