i dont think there is any limit to the number of extensions they can do. They can simply do it all the way, and the price will always be capped

They are playing the waiting game... see who burge first, them or retail investors. I think they are betting on investors, who at the end, may feel they had enough and accept the offer to get back their cash.

Write to those today/business times forum column... Should make it publicly known that such actions of unlevel playing feild our world class exchange  cannot condone. SGX/MAS cannot condone any such behaviour of its member taking advantage of its minority shareholders.      |

I see. If that' s true, then MVN is actually helping minority shareholders' cause. Hopefully Fincantieri will wake up and realise the repeated extensions is not going to help them at all. But seriously SGX should do something about this sorry state of affairs.

Write  to SGX got use meh ????  SGX can' t be bothered  with minority shareholders interest. SIAS voice out in article, nothing happen also so far. ' Dissenting' minority shareholders need to find its own way to voice our unhappiness! Put up some kind of petition to end this nonsense - extension and extension to no end again! Or just throw in the towel to them and forget about the whole thing is a waste of time at the end nothing going to be heard or done to change the situation.

as expected another extension... why not just just put it to infinite date better until they are happy . SGX anyway is sleeping ! This is obviousy a loophole . Why SGX never query can like that extension forever. Isn' t any SGX provision stating a limit to such extension. Only our world class exchange will  allows minority shareholders to be taken advantage like this. Sigh !!! SGX regulators is a failure !

Hi cumulus, the definition of " associate" under the Takeover Code includes " investment company" or " a holder of 5% or more of the shares" Believe this is why MVN has to disclose and why Offeror does not need to increase offer price. MVN and Offeror are not concert parties.   |

Another extension.   Till 10 March.   Think Fincenteri really dying to take VARD private.   This is likely to push price higher again. |

I would not assume that MVN is a hedge fund acting for its own interest and trying to make a quick buck out of this situation. After all the dealings disclosure states that it is an associate of Vard. Rule 21 of Takeover Code states that " If an offeror or any person acting in concert with it buys securities in the offeree company at above the offer price (being the then current value of the offer during the offer period), it must increase its offer to not less than the highest price paid for any securities so acquired." If I am interpreting this correctly, doesn' t it mean that Fincantieri has to raise its offer price given that MVN is an associate of Vard and Vard is a subsidiary of Fincantieri (given its > 50% stake). That should qualify as " acting in concert" doesn' t it? I have written/called SGX and MAS on this. Let' s see what they say. I encourage other minority shareholders here to do the same. The regulators are obviously not doing their job. |
