KKR left to recount beans in Australian deal: jgfarb
Hedge fund Manikay Partners on March 5 sent a letter to the board of Australian accounting software company MYOB urging it to reconsider its recommendation of a A$2 billion takeover bid from U.S. private equity firm KKR.
MYOB said on March 6 that it continues to unanimously recommend KKR’s offer. A vote on the proposal is scheduled for April 17. On Oct. 7, KKR offered A$3.70 a share, and later increased the bid to A$3.77. After conducting due diligence, KKR reduced the offer to A$3.40 a share, a price the board endorsed on Dec. 24 with the inclusion of a 60-day window for the company to seek competing proposals. That so-called go-shop period expired on Feb. 22.
“Our valuation of the company, which we are happy to discuss with the board and with our fellow shareholders, is well in excess $4.00 per share,” Manikay Managing Partner Shane Finemore wrote.
