SLC - prior $500m takeover bid from QIC 2019
"Board unable to agree to a transaction"
one for the archives here, that previoulsy Superloop recived a $1.95 per share take over bid during 2019.
As is my recollection and referred to here, the Board of Superloop at the time did not agree to the takeover offer.
so we have:
- a Founder and Chairman with a very significantly valued holding
- members of the Board who using current day as a litmus test tend to hold reasonably sized portfolios of shares by everyday person standards
- interest from an Investment Company
that the Board effectively did not agree that $1.95 per share was the value to accept the offer for.
Were they correct or incorrect in hidsight ? only time will tell.
But as I've posted in my Top20 review, nearly everyone since this time has increased the number of shares they hold.
My takeout from this is that at the time the Board saw the company as having a greater future value than the $1.95 per share in hand represented in May 2019.
At the moment with a Share Price of $1.00 with the extra 44% of issued shares, I'm tipping towards the Board as having good insight and look forward to the upcoming Half Yearly results on the 23rd of Feb 2020.
