Reliant Resources to Sell Off European Assets at Loss

LCG, February 20, 2003Reliant Resources Inc. will sell energy-related European assets to Nuon at a loss of $900 million.

The Netherlands Nuon will purchase the assets for roughly $1.3 billion, in part comprised of $1.2 billion in cash receipts. $0.5 billion of the reportedly $0.9 billion loss is associated with goodwill impairment.

Reliant has 3,500 megawatts in electric capacity in the Netherlands as well as in commercial energy holdings.

The agreement will still require Dutch and German antitrust approval and is expected to be completed in half a year.

Reliant is based in Houston, Texas.
