Sept 13 (Reuters) - U.S. private equity firm Advent
International is set to clinch its 4 billion pound ($4.99
billion) takeover of defence and aerospace group Cobham Plc
after Advent received support from more than 75% of
shareholders, the Financial Times reported on Friday.
The tally is based on the number of proxy votes already cast
ahead of a crucial shareholder vote on Monday, the FT reported https://on.ft.com/31kBOgj,
citing people familiar with the situation.
Cobham and Advent did not immediately respond to requests
for comment on the report.
