ArcelorMittal purchases European laser welded activity from Noble International



ArcelorMittal is pleased to announce the completion of the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares of Noble European Holdings B.V. (“Noble BV”), a Dutch private limited liability company engaged in laser welded blanks operations primarily in Europe.
On 8 May 2009, ArcelorMittal signed a definitive purchase agreement with Noble BV’s parent Noble International, Ltd., which has filed for reorganization under the bankruptcy laws of the United States on 15 April 2009.

[AngusYoung]

Does anyone know if NOBLQ has a ticker symbol for preferred shares? I am wondering if there is a possibility of commons being wiped out in the future. It happened with GM so it crossed my mind. I hope not because I own tons of this stock.

EU approves acquisition of Dutch company by ArcelorMittal
Submitted by admin4 on 8 July 2009 - 12:51pm.

Economy
International
By EuAsiaNews,

Brussels : The European Commission , the EU’s executive boy, announced here Wednesday that it has cleared under the EU Merger Regulation the proposed acquisition of Dutch company Noble European Holdings B.V., a subsidiary of Noble International Ltd. of the US, by ArcelorMittal of Luxembourg.

After examining the operation, the Commission concluded that the transaction would not significantly impede effective competition in the European Economic Area (EEA) or any substantial part of it.

ArcelorMittal is a global company active in the production, distribution, marketing and sale of steel products and, to a lesser extent, of first transformation steel products. ArcelorMittal is also active in the mining business.

Noble European Holdings is the holder of several companies producing tailor welded blanks (TWBs). TWBs are largely used in the motor vehicle industry and are produced by cutting to size and welding together various individual pieces of uncoated and/or coated sheet, enabling complex shapes embodying steel of different grades and thickness to be produced.

The Commission's investigation showed that the parties' activities in the TWB business do not overlap in the EEA and would lead only to a small overlap in TWB activities worldwide.

As Noble European Holdings already receives almost all of its supplies from ArcelorMittal, the Commission’s investigation confirmed that the merger would not lead to any significant change in the EEA market structure and the merged entity would continue to face several competitors in the flat carbon steel markets.

GUIDE TO EU MERGER PROCESS

DEADLINES:

The European Commission has 25 working days after a deal is filed for a first-stage review. It may extend that to 35 working days, to consider either a company's proposed remedies or an EU member state's request to handle the case.

Most mergers win approval but occasionally the Commission opens a detailed second-stage investigation for up to 90 additional working days, which it may extend to 105 working days.

SIMPLIFIED:

Under the simplified procedure, the Commission announces the clearance of uncontroversial first-stage mergers without giving any reason for its decision. Cases may be reclassified as non-simplified -- that is, ordinary first-stage reviews -- until they are approved.

[AngusYoung]

These are NOT related. Absolutely not in any way.

IT says on news that the idiots have cut off the loans from the govt. for auto parts companys -- very bad -- IMO --

Noble international related to NYMH?

I find it odd that a company that owned gold mine claims was folded into Nymet, now I see Nobel International selling off its metal assets and it too also has a large gold mine claim. Now this Nymh metal trading holding company related to Noble?

Tidalwave Holdings, Inc. announced that the company closed its acquisition of Noble Metals LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company and metal recovery industry operator. The definitive agreements include the acquisition of 100% of Noble Metals LLC, its metals processing plant, and its interest in the Mariposa County, CA Triumph Mine.

Perihelion Global Completes Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan, Receives Storm Water Construction Permit for Patented Utah Gold Mine

Posted on: Thursday, 27 March 2008, 09:00 CDT
The Patented Gold Mine is located at high elevation and has been affected by above average seasonal snowfall limiting access during the past winter months. With spring approaching and temperatures rising, the Company anticipates resuming work at the mine to prepare for operations under the Storm Water Permit. The Company completed construction of an approximate 8,000 ft roadway over Federal Lands after receiving the Right of Way Grant from the US Dept. of Interior, Bureau of Land Management last year to allow for transportation to and from the mine over Federal Land. Successful development of the Patented Gold Mine remains a primary business objective for the Company, and management continues to believe the financial climate for metals prices will remain attractive through the development of this property.

[Land Agent]

WHAT does that mean for the little shareholder in NOBL ??? -- Or, can you guess ?? -- Please do comment if you will -- THANKS -- LAND --

[AngusYoung]

I work for Mittal. Found out through my union prez. Look on Yahoo finance and you will find the major holders. Many of us at Mittal have HUGE holdings in it.

[windsinger]

How do you know he bought 12% after the bankruptcy where do you find that?

[AngusYoung]

Mittal bought 7mill shares of this in early 08 for over $15 pps then bought another 12% after the bankruptcy. Believe me when I say that Mr. Mittal does NOT lose money in bad investments. He has plans for this company and when he restructures it and pulls it out of bankruptcy then look out. I anticipate this to be several dollars a share over time.JMO.

[windsinger]

I would think with 23 million shares the shares holders should get somthing looks like some are biding on this and that is not done yet. Don't know how it all will come out but they are moving on it quick you won't have to wait 2 or 3 years.

[Land Agent]

If they gave away 23 millions to the parent company that is FRAUD -- there was 23 million shares and the overseas plants were worth 23 milllions to the shareholders -- also, there is over 11 millions available in USA plants according to filing -- at least $1. to $2. per share due shareholders if they treat shareholders fairly -- IMO --

[windsinger]

Land Agent you have got me I think we are the only ones here, so if you don't know anything we are BOTH in trouble. I don't even know why it went up just got in for the rebound I hope is coming.

[Land Agent]

Did thet receive 23 millions from sale of overseas plants?? -- What are they going to do with this money?? -- Or, did they just give the overseas plants to the parent to screw the USA shareholders ???? -- Something may be rotten in Denmark ???? -- IMO --

[windsinger]

For a stock that went from .13 to .75 and back down to .14 not a lot of people here whats the problem??

[Land Agent]

did they get 23 millions in cash ?????

[RonnieD]

yea they waited until they sold the European assets to MT, just to be safe.. should get back to .10 now

not as interesting anymore with Euro assets sold

Yep, this actually has a better chance of running as a pinkie after the initial drop. I will keep a close eye on this one.

I agree...bring on da "Q"

waiting for the Q also.

they appealed to the Nasdaq delisting.

We have to wonder if MT has anything up their sleeve here.

They control the desitiny of NOBL.

[Cowboy]

Seems Internation is bored today flashing .121 and .12

[Cowboy]

I would love to see a good dip. I think the Q was factored in already...same happened over on ERPL...they announced the BK and the stock dropped and today they got their Q and its doing just fine.

[OTC BB King]

Yes, very strange. I was wondering what has taken so long to delist and add the Q. I guess when that happens, there may be another bout of selling, but this should have a bounce at some point IMO.

[Cowboy]

What I liked about this article was the bidding price starting at 11 million...thats about 4 times what we are currently trading at.

[Cowboy]

Good question..its not like it hasn't been announced and the warnings have come out from NYSE.

[OTC BB King]

Cowboy, why does NOBL not have a "Q" and why has it not been delisted yet? Thanks bud.

Auto supplier Noble says Patriarch "stalking horse"
Mon May 4, 2009 3:47pm EDT

By Phil Wahba

NEW YORK, May 4 (Reuters) - Bankrupt auto parts supplier Noble International Ltd (NOBL.O) said in a court filing that an affiliate of investment firm Patriarch Partners LLC has put in an $11 million "stalking horse" bid for its assets.

Noble, which filed for bankruptcy protection for its North American operations on April 15, is seeking permission to sell its assets to Patriarch unit Noble Intentions LLC, citing "liquidity concerns and in an effort to maximize the values," according to documents filed on Friday in federal bankruptcy court in Michigan.

A "stalking horse" makes the lead bid at a bankruptcy auction and creates a floor for the bidding, in exchange for certain protections that often include break-up fees.

A sale hearing is set for May 22.

In its bankruptcy filing in April, Noble cited a steep decline in auto production and tight credit.

The Troy, Michigan-based company, which makes laser-welded blanks and roll-formed products and other steel components, has supplied parts to General Motors Corp (GM.N), Ford Motor Co (F.N) and Chrysler LLC.

Noble provides steel structural components to the auto industry, including parts that increase vehicle body strength and reduce weight. Customers also include Daimler AG (DAIGn.DE), BMW (BMWG.DE), Fiat SpA (FIA.MI) and Honda Motor Co Ltd (7267.T).

The case is in Re: Noble International Ltd et al, U.S Bankruptcy Court, Eastern District of Michigan, No. 09-51720. (Reporting by Phil Wahba; editing by Carol Bishopric)
