National Express happy to ride solo but Stagecoach remains on radar
(Reuters) -National Express does not necessarily need to buy rival Stagecoach to boost revenue and profit, although it is still considering its options after it was outbid by a new suitor this week, the transport company said on Thursday. National Express' attempt to buy Stagecoach, Britain's biggest bus and coach operator, hit a setback on Wednesday after a European fund trumped its 445 million pound ($585 million) all-stock offer with a higher, potentially more attractive cash-only proposal, which was welcomed by Stagecoach. "As a diligent board we consider our options, but I have to say that unlike our competitor we are a very well diversified business," National Express Chief Executive Ignacio Garat said in an interview.
