RWE AG (RWE.XE) said Wednesday it has acquired a 49% stake in Slovakia's Vychodoslovenska Energetika Holding AS, or VSEH, from Innogy SE (IGY.XE).

Both parties agreed not to disclose the sum, the German electric utility company said.

VSEH is a holding company whose subsidiaries mainly engage in electricity supply and distribution in Slovakia.

The Essen, Germany-based company struck an asset-swap deal last year with E.ON SE (EOAN.XE) to split the assets of Innogy, a RWE spinoff and subsidiary. The acquisition of the VSEH stake is part of the deal, RWE said.
