(彭博社)“赫斯公司最大股东之一 HBK 资本管理公司计划在雪佛龙公司以 530 亿美元收购这家石油公司的交易中放弃投票。

 该公司的合伙人之一尼科斯·帕纳吉奥托普洛斯(Nikos Panagiotopoulos)在接受采访时表示,该对冲基金同意机构 股东服务公司(Institutional Shareholder Services Inc.)的观点,即股东不应投票赞成该交易。

帕纳吉奥托普洛斯表示:“无证股东承担了所有仲裁风险,并且应该因仲裁对他们不利或耗时比预期更长的可能性而获得补偿。”

Panagiotopoulos 表示,HBK 拥有超过 800 万股 Hess 股票的经济权益。根据彭博社汇编的数据,这可能使赫斯成为该基金的第四大持有人。 HBK Capital Management 管理着超过 70 亿美元的资产。

赫斯没有立即回应置评请求。雪佛龙表示,“我们期待赫斯获得成功的股东投票并完成交易。”

雪佛龙股价下跌 0.9%。赫斯下跌 0.5%。

(Bloomberg) – HBK Capital Management, one of the biggest shareholders in Hess Corp., is planning to abstain from voting on the oil company’s $53 billion acquisition by Chevron Corp.

The hedge fund agrees with Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. that shareholders should not vote in favor of the deal, one of the firm’s partners, Nikos Panagiotopoulos, said in an interview.

“Hess shareholders are taking all the arbitration risk and should be compensated for the possibility that arbitration goes against them or takes longer than expected,” Panagiotopoulos said.

HBK has economic interests in more than 8 million shares of Hess, Panagiotopoulos said. That likely makes the fund Hess’s fourth-biggest holder, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. HBK Capital Management manages more than $7 billion in assets.

Hess didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment. Chevron said, “we look forward to Hess obtaining a successful shareholder vote and completing the transaction.”

Chevron shares fell 0.9%. Hess declined 0.5%.
