(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Venlo, The Netherlands; Singapore 16 May 2011 - Océ N.V. and Singapore Post
Limited reached agreement on the sale and purchase of Océ's 30% stake in
DataPost Pte Ltd ("DataPost") based in Singapore for the amount of S$6.0 million
(approximately Euro 3.4 million).
DataPost is a provider of electronic printing and despatching services with
subsidiaries in Malaysia and Hong Kong and Joint Ventures in Thailand and the
Philippines. After completion of this transaction, Singapore Post Limited will
hold 100% of the shares in DataPost.
"We have decided to sell our stake in DataPost as we consider its activities too
far removed from our current core business. As 100% subsidiary of Singapore Post
Limited, DataPost may be better positioned to further develop its electronic
printing and despatching services business" said Rokus van Iperen, CEO of Océ
N.V.
