UK: Baugur Eyeing £150m Bid For Oasis – FT
Icelandic retail giant Baugur, which last year failed in a bid to buy UK fashion group Arcadia, was on Thursday reported to be in talks to buy high street clothing retailer Oasis Stores. The Financial Times reported a deal for the operator of more than 160 shops and concessions is likely to value the chain at more than £150 million, and could be announced in the next couple of weeks.
