 Danone Plays Down Rumor of a Takeover by PepsiCo - New York Times
PARIS, July 21 -Executives of Danone said Thursday that they were not in contact with PepsiCo over a rumored hostile takeover, but the statement did little to defuse a national furor over the possibility.

Danone's overall profit plummeted 37 percent, to 347 million euros ($422 million) primarily to write down the value of a water cooler business in the United States.

At their peak last week, Danone shares had climbed 32%—to 96.25 euros on July 20 from 72.7 euros on June 30—amid three weeks of persistent rumors that the company was about to be acquired by PepsiCo.
And Danone is one of the biggest purveyors of bottled water in Europe and Asia, while Pepsi is the largest in the U.S. But the mere suggestion that a big American conglomerate could be interested in taking over a French “jewel” had politicians up in arms in Paris.
Danone’s chairman, Franck Riboud, who took over management of the company from his father, has also expressed his desire to keep Danone independent.

 PepsiCo play for Danone sparks rally - Breaking News - Business - Breaking News
Volumes in Danone have soared - peaking at 12 million shares on July 19 versus an average daily volume of 1.3 million - since July 7 when takeover talk honed in on PepsiCo, which has absorbed its Quaker Oats buy and is investing in bottled water via its Aquafina brand.
"Danone is attractive due to its product positioning in health and its geography in emerging markets and in east and western Europe, whereas Danone is weakish in the United States," said the analyst at the US bank.
"(Otherwise) Danone will have to convince investors that maybe there is a short-term profit to be made by handing over shares to somebody else, but that through value creation this company should be able to get you there and even higher by remaining independent," the analyst said.
