Ina note to investors DNB Markets said it doesn’t expect to see a dealmaterialise due to the current valuation of the US LPG carrier owner’s NewYork-quoted stock but didn’t rule out the possibility altogether.

“We argue that a merger with Avance Gas is unlikelyto happen at the current valuation as we think the stock will revalue onceearnings and cash flow become more visible during 2015,” it told investors.
