  "account": "The board of Azkoyen has appointed Lazard as an independent financial advisor for the takeover bid by the Ohmnia Electronics group, which is controlled by Talgo and Sidenor president José Antonio Jainaga, in collaboration with the Basque Government, BBK Foundation, Kutxabank and the Carmen Lequerica holding, according to the company's notice filed with the CNMV. The takeover bid aims to acquire the entire 100% of Azkoyen, a Navarre-based company specialized in vending machines, payment terminals and access control systems, for a total of 244.5 million euros. The operation is deemed friendly by Azkoyen's board, and will only proceed if the proposal receives at least half of the shareholders' approval. The offer values each share at ten euros, a price to which they have been devalued since reaching 11.45 euros on the day Jainaga announced the launch of the OPA. The financing will come from a capital increase in Ohmnia, to which current partners will join with BBK Foundation and Kutxabank, the latter through its Indar Kartera fund, supplemented by two 122.25 million euro loans from CaixaBank and Banco Sabadell, as detailed in the document submitted to the CNMV.",
