HONG KONG - Haier, the world’s biggest maker of household appliances, is planning a major restructuring that will see its main unit Haier Smart Home list in Hong Kong to take another group company valued at $7.7 billion private, two people with direct knowledge of the matter said.
Financial advisers have been hired to work on the deal, which would give Haier Smart Home access to cash at Haier Electronics, the sources said, declining to be identified as negotiations were private. Haier Smart Home currently owns 45% of Haier Electronics and unlisted parent Haier Group Corp holds 12%, while minority shareholders include Vanguard Group, Norges Bank Investment Management and BlackRock, according to Refinitiv data.
