Google to own 5.94 per cent in Lenovo post-Motorola deal

Internet giant Google Inc will own a 5.94 per cent stake, worth $750 million, in China's Lenovo Group Ltd once Lenovo's deal to buy Google's Motorola handset division closes, according to a disclosure on the Hong Kong stock exchange.

Google would take 618.3 million Lenovo shares at $1.213 per share, the stock exchange said late on Thursday.

Lenovo agreed to buy Google's Motorola handset division last week for $2.91 billion in a cash and stock deal.
