Thanks Bertrand, appreciate the summaries. Here is some basic general information FWIW.

Alcatel was established in 1898 as a publically-owned electric company. It was nationalized by the French Government in 1982 and then privatized in 1987. Alcatel has four principal product lines; telecommunications, which accounted for 44.3% of the company's 1997 sales; cables and related components, which accounted for 22.8% of the company's 1997 sales; energy and transport, which accounted for 18.4% of the company's 1997 sales; and engineering and systems, which accounted for 14.1% of the company's 1997 sales.

Alcatel has operations in over 100 countries and employs approximately 190,000 people. Alcatel is one of the largest French companies listed on the Paris Bourse.
