PRESS: ValueAct Divests Entire Shareholding In Rolls-Royce

Fri, 07th Aug 2020 06:54

(Alliance News) - US-based activist investor ValueAct has sold its entire shareholding in jet engine maker Rolls-Royce Holdings PLC, the Financial Times reported on Friday, citing two people familiar with the situation.

According to FT, ValueAct built a 10% stake in Rolls-Royce in 2015 after it issued a string of profit warnings. The UK engineering company is currently evaluating a GBP1.5 billion to GBP2 billion capital raise to help restore its balance sheet.

ValueAct started reducing its stake - which peaked in 2017 at 11% - after the departure of Rolls-Royce's chief operating officer Brad Singer in December.

At the start of April, the hedge fund declared a 4.5% stake, which was largely sold later in that month, a person familiar with the situation told FT.

Sunday newspaper round-up: Nationwide, Direct Line, Rolls-Royce

(Sharecast News) - Nationwide's bid to create the UK's second-largest savings and loans group by taking over Virgin Money may be derailed if its members get a say on whether the deal goes through or not. It would take just 500 Nationwide members depositing £50 each one to convene a special meeting and ask for a vote on the deal. Furthermore, preparations for a vote would keep Nationwide from meeting the 4 April deadline for making a binding offer under Takeover Panel rules. However, the society says that its existing legal advice is that no vote is required. - Financial Mail on Sunday
