ABC Technologies Submits Its Fifth All-Cash Proposal to Acquire TI Fluid Systems On 14 September 2024, the Board of TI Fluid Systems plc (LSE:TIFS) confirmed that it had received, and rejected, a highly preliminary and non-binding all-cash proposal from ABC Technologies Inc. ("ABC Technologies"), a company majority-owned by investment funds managed by Apollo Management IX, L.P., to acquire TI Fluid Systems at a price of 176 pence per share. This followed a previous proposal at 165 pence per share. ABC Technologies subsequently submitted further all-cash proposals to acquire TI Fluid Systems at prices of 188 and 195 pence per share, both of which were rejected by the Board. Following limited access to management, on 10 October 2024, ABC Technologies submitted its fifth all-cash proposal to acquire TI Fluid Systems at a price of 200 pence per share, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of pre-conditions, including completion of satisfactory due diligence and the agreement of definitive transaction documentation (the "Proposal"). The Proposal represents a premium of approximately: 51.9% to the volume weighted average price of 131.7 pence for the 90-day period to 13 September 2024, being the last business day prior to the commencement of the offer period; 53.4% to the closing price of 130.4 pence on 21 August 2024, being the last business day prior to ABC Technologies submitting its first proposal to the TI Fluid Systems Board; and 37.2% to the closing price of 145.8 pence on 13 September 2024, being the last business day prior to the commencement of the offer period. The Company remains confident in its strategy. However, having considered the Proposal and having consulted with its financial and legal advisers, the Board has confirmed to ABC Technologies that, should a firm offer be made pursuant to Rule 2.7 of the Code on the same financial terms as the Proposal, it would be minded to recommend it to shareholders. In order to allow ABC Technologies to conclude due diligence, finalise financing and for the negotiation of definitive transaction documentation, ABC Technologies has requested, and the Board of TI Fluid Systems and the Panel on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Takeover Panel") have consented to, an extension of the "Put Up or Shut Up" deadline. Consequently, in accordance with Rule 2.6(c) of the Code, ABC Technologies is now required, by not later than 5.00 p.m. (London time) on 8 November 2024 to either announce a firm intention to make an offer for TI Fluid Systems in accordance with Rule 2.7 of the Code or announce that it does not intend to make an offer, in which case the announcement will be treated as a statement to which Rule 2.8 of the Code applies. This deadline can be extended by the Board of TI Fluid Systems, with the consent of the Takeover Panel, in accordance with Rule 2.6(c) of the Code. There can be no certainty that a firm offer will ultimately be made for TI Fluid Systems by ABC Technologies. A further announcement will be made as and when appropriate. This announcement has been made with the consent of ABC Technologies. In accordance with Rule 2.5(a) of the Code, ABC Technologies reserves the following rights: a) to introduce other forms of consideration and/or to vary the composition of the consideration;b) to make an offer for TI Fluid Systems at a lower value or on less favourable terms than those described in this announcement: i) with the recommendation or consent of the Board of TI Fluid Systems; ii) if a third party announces a firm intention to make an offer for TI Fluid Systems on less favourable terms than the Proposal; and iii) following the announcement by TI Fluid Systems of a "whitewash" proposal; and c) to reduce its offer by the amount of any dividend that is announced, declared, made or paid by TI Fluid Systems after the date of this announcement and prior to completion. 공시 • Sep 18
