The cancellation of the energy infrastructure company's admission to trading on AIM will precede the May 7 closing of the ongoing takeover of the company by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., d/b/a KKR, through Sienna Bidco. Sienna Bidco declared its takeover proposal unconditional on March 22 and started the compulsory acquisition of Smart Metering Systems' shares not already tendered for acceptance of the offer on March 25.공시 • Mar 25Smart Metering Systems Applies for Shares Cancelation on LSESmart Metering Systems plc board announced that it has made an application to the London Stock Exchange for the proposed cancellation of the admission to trading of SMS Shares on AIM (the "Cancellation") in accordance with Rule 41 of the AIM Rules for Companies. Under the AIM Rules, the Cancellation can only take place after the expiry of a period of twenty business days from the date on which notice of the Cancellation is given. The Cancellation is, therefore, expected to take effect at 7.00 am (London time) on 25 April 2024 (being 20 clear business days from the date of this announcement).공시 • Mar 18Smart Metering Systems Provides Delisting UpdateSmart Metering Systems plc Shareholders are reminded that, as stated in the Offer Document, assuming the Takeover Offer becomes or is declared unconditional and Bidco has, by virtue of acceptances of the Takeover Offer or otherwise, acquired, or agreed to acquire, the company Shares carrying not less than 75% of the voting rights then exercisable at a general meeting of the company Shareholders, it is intended that the admission to trading of the company Shares on AIM will be cancelled. If Bidco receives acceptances of the Takeover Offer in respect of, and/or otherwise acquires or unconditionally contracts to acquire, 90% or more of the company Shares by nominal value and voting rights attaching to such shares to which the Takeover Offer relates and the Takeover Offer has become or been declared unconditional, Bidco intends to exercise its rights pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 3 of Part 28 of the Companies Act to acquire compulsorily the remaining the company Shares in respect of which the Takeover Offer has not been accepted on the same terms as the Takeover Offer. It is also intended that, following the Takeover Offer becoming or being declared unconditional and Bidco, by virtue of acceptances of the Takeover Offer or otherwise, having acquired, or having agreed to acquire, the company Shares carrying not less than 75% of the voting rights then exercisable at a general meeting of the company Shareholders, the company will be re-registered as a private limited company. Such cancellation of admission to trading on AIM of the company Shares and re-registration of the company as a private limited company would significantly reduce the liquidity and marketability of any the company Shares in respect of which the Takeover Offer has not been accepted at that time and their value may be affected as a consequence. Any remaining the company Shareholders (unless their SMS Shares are acquired by Bidco pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 3 of Part 28 of the Companies Act) would become minority shareholders in a majority controlled private limited company and may therefore be unable to sell their SMS Shares. There can be no certainty that SMS would pay any further dividends or other distributions or that such minority SMS Shareholders would again be offered an opportunity to sell their SMS Shares on terms which are equivalent to or no less advantageous than those under the Takeover Offer.공시 • Jan 18Smart Metering Systems plc Affirms Earnings Guidance for the Fiscal Year 2023Smart Metering Systems plc affirmed earnings guidance for the fiscal year 2023.

공시 • Apr 23Smart Metering Systems Set to Delist from London's AIM Amid Takeover by KKRSmart Metering Systems plc is expected to delist from the London stock exchange's AIM on April 25, 2024, according to April 23, 2024 filing. The cancellation of the energy infrastructure company's admission to trading on AIM will precede the May 7 closing of the ongoing takeover of the company by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., d/b/a KKR, through Sienna Bidco. Sienna Bidco declared its takeover proposal unconditional on March 22 and started the compulsory acquisition of Smart Metering Systems' shares not already tendered for acceptance of the offer on March 25.
공시 • Mar 25Smart Metering Systems Applies for Shares Cancelation on LSESmart Metering Systems plc board announced that it has made an application to the London Stock Exchange for the proposed cancellation of the admission to trading of SMS Shares on AIM (the "Cancellation") in accordance with Rule 41 of the AIM Rules for Companies. Under the AIM Rules, the Cancellation can only take place after the expiry of a period of twenty business days from the date on which notice of the Cancellation is given. The Cancellation is, therefore, expected to take effect at 7.00 am (London time) on 25 April 2024 (being 20 clear business days from the date of this announcement).
공시 • Mar 18Smart Metering Systems Provides Delisting UpdateSmart Metering Systems plc Shareholders are reminded that, as stated in the Offer Document, assuming the Takeover Offer becomes or is declared unconditional and Bidco has, by virtue of acceptances of the Takeover Offer or otherwise, acquired, or agreed to acquire, the company Shares carrying not less than 75% of the voting rights then exercisable at a general meeting of the company Shareholders, it is intended that the admission to trading of the company Shares on AIM will be cancelled. If Bidco receives acceptances of the Takeover Offer in respect of, and/or otherwise acquires or unconditionally contracts to acquire, 90% or more of the company Shares by nominal value and voting rights attaching to such shares to which the Takeover Offer relates and the Takeover Offer has become or been declared unconditional, Bidco intends to exercise its rights pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 3 of Part 28 of the Companies Act to acquire compulsorily the remaining the company Shares in respect of which the Takeover Offer has not been accepted on the same terms as the Takeover Offer. It is also intended that, following the Takeover Offer becoming or being declared unconditional and Bidco, by virtue of acceptances of the Takeover Offer or otherwise, having acquired, or having agreed to acquire, the company Shares carrying not less than 75% of the voting rights then exercisable at a general meeting of the company Shareholders, the company will be re-registered as a private limited company. Such cancellation of admission to trading on AIM of the company Shares and re-registration of the company as a private limited company would significantly reduce the liquidity and marketability of any the company Shares in respect of which the Takeover Offer has not been accepted at that time and their value may be affected as a consequence. Any remaining the company Shareholders (unless their SMS Shares are acquired by Bidco pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 3 of Part 28 of the Companies Act) would become minority shareholders in a majority controlled private limited company and may therefore be unable to sell their SMS Shares. There can be no certainty that SMS would pay any further dividends or other distributions or that such minority SMS Shareholders would again be offered an opportunity to sell their SMS Shares on terms which are equivalent to or no less advantageous than those under the Takeover Offer.
