BWGI Initiates Tender Offer for Verallia
On April 24, 2025, BWGI filed a draft offer document with the French financial markets authority, AMF, for a tender offer to acquire control of Verallia. BWGI, holding 28.8% of Verallia's share capital, proposed to purchase shares at 30 euros each, including the 2024 dividend. The offer aims for over 50% capital or voting rights without necessitating delisting. Verallia's Board of Directors is set to review this on April 27, 2025, with insights from an independent expert.
Verallia is working with its lenders to maintain current financing under changed ownership, aiming to amend agreements to bypass prepayment clauses. Meanwhile, a bridge loan agreement with a banking syndicate is in place to refinance should amendments fail. Verallia also plans to engage bondholders regarding their put options to ensure compliance post-tender offer.
