Bayer: sales in sight for Monsanto deal

The group is preparing the sale of the dermatology division. Bloomberg's indiscretion causes the stock to slide on the Stock Exchange

(Teleborsa) – Bayer is traveling on several fronts between sales and acquisitions.

After having relaunched the offer on Monsanto, Bayer is reportedly considering the sale of its dermatological division. A non-core business to focus on the glyphosate group acquisition.

If the deal goes through, it would bring more than $1,1 billion into Bayer's coffers. The indiscretion reported by Bloomberg causes the stock to slide on the stock exchange, which falls by 1,25%.
