Glatzova & Co. has again acted on some standout M&A deals in the past year. In the first competitive public offer in the history of the Czech Republic, the firm is representing multinational pharmaceutical company Sanofi-Aventis in its €1.3 billion bid for Czech rival Zentiva. The offer was launched in July 2008, and involves competition from a member of the Czech investment company PPF. The firm has also been active in the private-equity field, advising Warburg Pincus International in two acquisitions of internet portal operators. The first, in November 2007, was for the Czech and Slovak subsidiaries of Centrum, and the second was for the Czech and Slovak subsidiaries of Atlas in February 2008. The deals featured Jiří Sixta, who was promoted to partner in July 2008. The firm showed that it's not just the international firms that win all the cross-border mandates, when it was mandated to work alongside German firm Hengeler Mueller to advise on Czech elements of Eaton Corporation's acquisition of the Moeller Group. The US industrial manufacturer paid €1.55 billion for the German electrical-components gorup.
