تستعد شركة L'Occitane International S.A. للتحول إلى شركة خاصة بعرض من المساهم المسيطر بعلاوة كبيرة.
L’Occitane International S.A. announced that its controlling shareholder, L’Occitane Groupe S.A., has proposed to privatise the company by acquiring all outstanding shares في بيان صحفي.
The offer, at HK$34.00 per share in cash, represents a 60.83% premium over the 60-trading day average price prior to the announcement. The total equity value of the buyout stands at €6.0 billion.
This transaction, intended to delist L’Occitane from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, is designed to provide the flexibility necessary for long-term growth without the pressures of public market operations.
The offer is final, backed by financing from Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank, along with Blackstone Inc. and Goldman Sachs Asset Management International.
Currently, shareholders representing 25.79% of the disinterested shares have committed to accept the offer, with an additional 12.17% expressing support. The transaction hinges on achieving a minimum 90% acceptance from disinterested shareholders by 26 August 2024.
An Independent Board Committee and Somerley Capital Limited are evaluating the offer’s fairness to minority shareholders. A composite document will soon be published to officially commence the offer period.
