China LED chip maker Sanan Optoelectronics drops bid for Dutch firm after U.S. security review
Chinese LED chip maker Sanan Optoelectronics has abandoned its planned acquisition of Dutch technology company Lumileds Holding after opposition from U.S. authorities. Its Malaysian partner, Inari Amertron Berhad, withdrew a $239 million cash offer after the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States cited “unresolvable” national security risks. Sanan said CFIUS asked for the filing to be withdrawn and the deal to be abandoned, and both sides halted the process.
