Guy Dolle was the CEO of Arcelor and its headquarter was in Luxembourg city. In 2005, Arcelor had revenues of $38.84 billion. Arcelorwas created through the merger of three companies: Arbed, Aceralia and Usinor

January 2006 : Mittal Steel offers the shareholders of Arcelor to create the world's first 100 million tonne plus steel producer.
The deal valued at $22.7 billion offer to Arcelors shareholders The deal was split between Mittal Shares (75 percent) and cash (25 percent)

But soon the deal landed into controversy

An Attractive Target: Arcelor had 71% pre merger revenue share from Europe while Mittal had only 34% While in North America The revenue share for Arcelor was only 9% but Mittal had 42% So they had complementary industrial and market footprint

Arcelor Management The management was extremely hostile to Mittal Steels bid The CEO of Arcelor dismissed Mittal Steel as a company of Indians European governments The French, Spanish and the government of Luxembourg was against the deal The French opposition was initially very fierce But It was criticized in the British, American and Indian media as double standards and economic nationalism in Europe

Deal was not getting pushed due to MITTALs Indian Nationality The then Commerce Minister KamalNath raised the issue through various forums But LN Mittal himself felt that there was no case of racism He emphasized that Mittal Steel was a European company and NOT an Indian one.

Deal finally clinched when the shareholders of Arcelor agreed to Mittal Steels offer In June 2006 Mittal raised its valuation of Arcelor to $32.9 billion.

The Mittal family holds 43 percent of the combined group.


The combined company holds 10 percent of the global market for steel.
