Prior notification of a concentration
(Case M.8240 — Dana/Brevini Fluid Power and Brevini Power Transmission)
Candidate case for simplified procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2016/C 447/10)






1.


On 22 November 2016, the Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which Dana Incorporated (United States of America) acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation control of parts of Brevini Fluid Power SpA and Brevini Power Transmission SpA (both of Italy, together referred to as the ‘Target’) by way of purchase of shares.










2.


The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:
—   for Dana: the supply of driveline, sealing and thermal-management products to manufacturers of light, medium/heavy and off-highway vehicles on a global basis,
—   for the Target: the supply of transmissions and hydraulic and electronic components for marine, mobile & infrastructure, heavy duty, industrial and stationary equipment, agriculture and renewable energy and waste management uses.










3.


On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of the Merger Regulation. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the procedure set out in this Notice.










4.


The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed operation to the Commission.
Observations must reach the Commission not later than 10 days following the date of this publication. Observations can be sent to the Commission by fax (+32 22964301), by email to COMP-MERGER-REGISTRY@ec.europa.eu or by post, under reference M.8240 — Dana/Brevini Fluid Power and Brevini Power Transmission, to the following address:
