The Seoul Central District Court on Thursday ruled in favor of local private equity firm Hahn & Company, demanding the chairman and the owner family of Namyang Dairy to hand over the controlling stake under agreed terms.
Hahn & Company signed a share purchase agreement (SPA) in May last year to acquire a 53 percent controlling stake in Namyang Dairy held by former chairman Hong Won-sik and his family members for 310.7 billion won ($220 million) but the dairy company called off the deal on September 1.
Hong¡¯s representatives claimed that they terminated the contract because Hahn & Company interfered with management and violated the confidentiality clause.
The court, however, ruled that the terms of the contract were valid and effective.
After the ruling, Hong¡¯s representatives announced that they plan to immediately appeal the decision.
Another case Hong filed against Hahn & Company seeking damage of 31 billion won for liability in the collapse in the deal remains pending.
Shares of Namyang Dairy closed down 5.33 percent at 417,500 won on Thursday.
