Candidate case for simplified procedure

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2017/C 42/08)

1.

On 2 February 2017, the Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertaking Rockwell Collins (USA) acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation control of the whole of the undertaking B/E Aerospace (USA) by way of a purchase of shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

—

Rockwell Collins is a manufacturer and supplier of aviation and integrated solutions for both commercial and government applications. Its principal products include flight deck avionics, cabin electronics, mission communications, simulation and training, and information management for commercial airliners and business jets,

—

B/E Aerospace is a manufacturer and supplier of aircraft cabin interior products, including aircraft cabin seating, lighting systems, oxygen systems, food and beverage preparation and storage equipment, galley systems, and modular lavatory systems.

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.
