KPN rejects takeover speculation

Ian Bickerton writes in FT.com:

KPN, the Dutch telecoms company, on Monday rejected suggestions it had become vulnerable to a take-over as consolidation gathers pace in the wake of Telefónica of Spain’s £17.7bn ($30.8bn) bid for O2, of the UK.

In remarks directed at analysts who increasingly view the company as potential prey, Ad Scheepbouwer, KPN chief executive, told the FT: “We can take care of ourselves very well, thank you.”
