Cogentrix Puts Itself Up for Sale
LCG, Oct. 26, 2001--Cogentrix Energy Inc., the privately-owned independent power producer, has dropped plans for a public offering of its stock and has instead hired investment banker Goldman Sachs & Co. to find a buyer, Reuters news agency reported yesterday.With the nation's stock markets in the doldrums, Cogentrix has scrapped plans for an initial public offering and instead expects to realize between $1.5 billion and $2 billion in a direct sale to an energy company looking to broaden its base in independent power production.Cogentrix, which earned $51.5 million on revenues of $551 million last year, owns outright or has partial ownership in 28 power plants in 14 U.S. states. Its total generation capacity is about 7,800 megawatts.Because Cogentrix is privately owned, financial information about the company is not available through usual channels, but Reuters said documents detailing the company's financial position have been floating on Wall Street.At least three energy companies -- Dominion Resources Inc., Dynegy Inc. and El Paso Corp. -- are said to have expressed interest in Cogentrix.
