施耐德電氣在中國設(shè)立合資公司致力于低壓產(chǎn)品

Beijing, China, December 18, 2006 - Schneider Electric (Euronext: SCHN) signed an agreement with Delixi Group for the formation of a Joint Venture dedicated to the manufacturing, marketing and distribution of Low Voltage products.

北京12月18日消息——施耐德電氣與德力西集團(tuán)簽署合作協(xié)議，成立合資公司，致力于生產(chǎn)、推廣和銷售低壓產(chǎn)品。

Delixi Group is one of the local leaders in the Chinese electrical distribution field employing about 14,000 employees across China. Delixi is recognized as one of China's famous brands.

德力西集團(tuán)是中國電力配送領(lǐng)域的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)廠商之一，在中國國內(nèi)擁有大約1萬4千名員工。德力西品牌被認(rèn)證為中國名牌之一。

This new Joint-Venture will be named Delixi Electric and will be incorporated in Wenzhou (Zhejiang Province) as soon as the conditions precedent and regulatory approvals are satisfied. Schneider Electric will own a 50% interest in the company while Delixi Group will hold the other 50%.

該新的合資公司將命名為德力西電氣，一旦滿足前期條件和獲得常規(guī)批準(zhǔn)，公司將馬上在浙江溫州成立。施耐德電氣持有公司的50％股份，德力西集團(tuán)則持有另外的50％股份。

Russell Stocker, Executive Vice President, Schneider Electric Asia Pacific Operating Division, commented: "This new partnership will inaugurate a new business model for Schneider Electric which will add up to its existing approach based on prescription, services and solutions offering through value adding partners. Indeed, Delixi Electric will market independently a specific and complete offer of Low Voltage products, through a specific large network of more than 1,000 retail outlets. It will offer a different value proposition from Schneider Electric with a distinct market approach."

施耐德電氣亞太運(yùn)營部執(zhí)行副總裁Russell Stocker評論道：“這項新的合作將為施耐德開辟一個全新的商業(yè)模式，通過合作伙伴帶來的價值在公司現(xiàn)有渠道基礎(chǔ)上，制定策略、拓展服務(wù)、增加解決方案。事實上，憑借自身獨(dú)特的超過1000家的龐大零售網(wǎng)絡(luò)，德力西電氣將在低壓電器產(chǎn)品市場提供獨(dú)立而完善的銷售。這將在施耐德電氣卓越的市場拓展模式之外，提供一個不同的盈利方式?！?

The Joint Venture will focus on addressing the Chinese market needs, and, through an exclusive relation with Schneider Electric, will also expand its specific business model into other targeted countries.

合資公司將致力于滿足中國市場的需要，并借助與施耐德電氣的專有合作，拓展其獨(dú)特的商業(yè)模式，進(jìn)入其它目標(biāo)國家市場。

The Joint Venture is expected to generate in 2007, on a pro-forma basis, revenues of around €220m on a full year basis with an EBIT margin of approximately 10%. It would employ around 4,000 persons.

合資公司預(yù)計將在2007年建成投產(chǎn)，預(yù)計全年產(chǎn)值將達(dá)到2.2億歐元，息稅后利潤率約為10%，將雇用員工約4,000人。

Delixi Electric's business model will be particularly adapted to capture the double-digit market growth in China's new urban development areas and to seize export opportunities in other emerging countries.

德力西電氣的商業(yè)模式將特別適用于在中國新興的城市發(fā)展領(lǐng)域奪得兩位數(shù)的市場增長，以及奪取出口其它快速發(fā)展國家的機(jī)會。

Schneider Electric expects that this partnership will meet its Return on Capital Employed criteria within 3 years from completion.
