It is a sad moment, when a company is forced by circumstances to sell pieces of itself, particularly when that company has been involved in shipping for 127 years. In that vein, Camillo Eitzen & Co. (“CECO”) announced Tuesday the sale of its majority shareholding (74.43%) in dry bulk operator, Eitzen Bulk Shipping to Navieras Ultragas Ltda, a Chilean shipping company, for $92.9 million or $5.07 per share. Navieras will be required to submit a mandatory public offering for the remainder of the shares meaning Eitzen may hold the record for the shortest life as a public company having begun trading on the Copenhagen Exchange only last December.
