Glass Lewis suggests Chiquita weigh alternatives to Fyffes deal

Reuters - UK Focus

SAO PAULO, Oct 21 (Reuters) - Shareholders of Chiquita Brands International Inc. should consider alternatives to a proposed merger with Irish produce firm Fyffes Plc (Other OTC: FYFFF - news) , proxy advisory firm Glass Lewis said on Tuesday.

Glass Lewis said Chiquita's board "continues to rely primarily on assumptions-driven analyses" of the combined entity's net present value.

On Monday proxy advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Services recommended Chiquita shareholders vote for a plan to merge with Fyffes and reject a counteroffer from Brazilian juice maker Grupo Cutrale and investment firm Safra Group. (Reporting by Guillermo Parra-Bernal; Editing by Chizu Nomiyama)
