Exclusive: NXP Semiconductors nears deal for Freescale Semiconductor - sources

(Reuters) - NXP Semiconductors NV is close to a deal to acquire smaller peer Freescale Semiconductor Ltd in a $40 billion cash and stock merger that will reshape the semiconductor industry, according to two people familiar with the matter.

NXP is finalizing a deal to pay a little over Freescale's $11 billion current market capitalization, the people said. A deal has not been finalized and the negotiations could still fall apart, the people added.

The sources asked not to be identified because the negotiations are confidential. NXP and Freescale did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
