Regulatory News:
Reference is made to the September 23 announcement by DBAY
Advisors (“DBAY”) (Paris:SQI), holding 28.6% of the capital and
26.7% of the voting rights1 of SQLI (the “Company”) of its
intention to file a tender offer, through a dedicated vehicle, for
the SQLI shares that it does not already own.
Following signature of an undertaking to tender to the offer and
in order to foster a positive outcome, DBAY announces that the
price of the tender offer is set at 31 euros per share,
representing an increase of 3,3% against the previous price of 30
euros per share. This price is firm and final.
DBAY intends to implement a squeeze-out if it holds 90% of the
share capital and voting rights following closing of the offer. No
additional price would be paid in connection with the
implementation of the squeeze-out.
The revised price of 31 euros per share values 100% of SQLI's
share capital at approximately 143 million euros.
This revised price represents a premium of 40% over the average
closing share price weighted by daily volumes for the last twelve
months and a 27% premium for the last six months preceding the
announcement date.
A shareholder representing 9.4% of the share capital has
irrevocably undertaken to tender its shares into the offer.
The filing of the offer remains conditional upon the issuance by
the Board of Directors of SQLI of a positive opinion confirming
that the offer is in the interest of SQLI, its shareholders and its
employees, which will be prepared based on the report of the
independent expert and the consultative opinion of the social and
economic committee.
