米兰，10月29日——两位知情人士向路透社透露，捷克亿万富翁米哈尔·斯特纳德已提出以300亿欧元收购Delfin。Delfin是德尔·韦基奥家族的投资公司，也是眼镜巨头依视路陆逊梯卡的关键股东。
MILAN, Oct 29 - Czech billionaire Michal Strnad has offered €30 billion to acquire Delfin, the Del Vecchio family's investment firm and the key shareholder in eyewear giant EssilorLuxottica, two people close to the matter told Reuters.
这一收购要约的消息最初由意大利报纸《Il Domani》报道，此时Delfin内部关系日益紧张，该公司的投资组合还包括在意大利金融领域的大量持股。
News of the offer, which was first reported by Italian newspaper Il Domani, comes amid growing tensions within Delfin, whose investment portfolio includes also large holdings in Italy's financial sector.
《Il Domani》公布了一封日期为10月20日的信函副本，其中概述了这一收购要约。
Il Domani published a copy of a letter dated October 20 outlining the offer.
据该报报道，斯特纳德在信中表示：“我正在寻找长期投资机会，目标是那些经营业务或投资业务处于其价值链顶端的公司。”信中还说，Delfin“完全契合我的投资方式和战略”。
"I am looking for long-term investment opportunities in companies operating in, or investing in, businesses positioned at the top of their value chain," Strnad said in the letter said, according to the newspaper. Delfin "perfectly fits my investment approach and strategy," the letter added.
AKIPIA负责监管斯特纳德在国防领域以外的一些投资活动，其发言人扬·奥苏赫表示，该集团不会“对市场猜测或潜在的商业谈判”置评。斯特纳德今年早些时候从中国中化手中收购了意大利轮胎制造商倍耐力14%的股份。
Jan Osuch, a spokesperson for AKIPIA, which oversees some of Strnad's investment activities outside the defence sector, said the group did not comment "on market speculation or potential business negotiations." Strnad earlier this year bought a 14% stake in Italian tyre maker Pirelli from China's Sinochem.
34岁的斯特纳德掌管着家族旗下的国防公司捷克斯洛伐克集团（CSG），该公司今年早些时候在阿姆斯特丹上市。
Strnad, 34, heads the family's defence company Czechoslovak Group (CSG) which listed in Amsterdam earlier this year.
Delfin股东莱昂纳多·玛丽亚·德尔·韦基奥证实，他最近获悉一家外国投资者向该公司提出了收购要约。他是已故雷朋亿万富翁莱昂纳多·德尔·韦基奥的六个子女之一。
Delfin shareholder Leonardo Maria Del Vecchio, one of the six children of the late Ray-Ban billionaire Leonardo Del Vecchio, confirmed he had been recently informed of an offer for the company received from a foreign investor.
他在一份声明中说：“我父亲毕生的事业必须继续作为意大利遗产的一部分。”
"The work of a lifetime by my father must remain part of Italy's heritage", he said in a statement.
已故的陆逊梯卡创始人在米兰一家孤儿院长大，白手起家建立了自己的商业帝国。
The late Luxottica founder built his business empire from scratch having grown up in a Milan orphanage.
Delfin的所有权在德尔·韦基奥的八位继承人之间平均分配：他的六个子女、他的遗孀妮科莱塔·赞皮洛以及她前一段婚姻所生的儿子。
Delfin's ownership is divided equally among Del Vecchio's eight heirs: his six children, his widow Nicoletta Zampillo and her son from a previous marriage.
任何出售都需要继承人几乎一致的决定，而这些继承人之间的分歧已越来越大。
A sale would require a virtually unanimous decision from the heirs, who have become increasingly at odds with one another.
除了其在EssilorLuxottica的股权外，总部位于卢森堡的Delfin还持有意大利保险公司Generali以及贷款机构蒙特代帕斯基银行（MPS）和意大利联合银行（UniCredit）的股权，合计当前市值为430亿欧元。Delfin拒绝置评。斯特拉德的代表目前无法立即置评。
In addition to its stake in EssilorLuxottica, Luxembourg-based Delfin holds stakes in Italian insurer Generali and lenders Monte dei Paschi di Siena (MPS) and UniCredit, for a combined current market value of €43 billion. Delfin declined to comment. A representative for Strnad was not immediately available for comment.
