Offer Timetable Suspension24 Oct 2021 10:04
From the extract of the RNS quoted bellow one can infer that GFL are very confident that they will receive the Mexican authority's approval otherwise why urge investors to accept the offer the soonest? In any case, why investors would accept the offer now and render themselves unable to sell if circumstances change or simply, they change their minds and want to be out? Could the announcement be a way of avoiding the weekly reports of acceptance? ("The Panel has further confirmed to Ganfeng that Ganfeng's obligation under Rule 17.1(a)(i) of the Code (to make announcements on every seventh day following Day 21 setting out, among other matters, the number of Bacanora Shares for which acceptances of the Offer have been received) has been suspended until such time as the Mexican Antitrust Clearance Condition is satisfied or waived and the Offer timetable has been resumed.")
"2 Action to be taken
Notwithstanding the suspension of the Offer timetable referred to in this announcement, Bacanora Shareholders who have not yet accepted the Offer are urged to do so as soon as possible in accordance with the following procedures:
· if you hold your Bacanora Shares, or any of them, in certificated form (that is, not in CREST), you should complete and return a Form of Acceptance in relation to such certificated Bacanora Shares as soon as possible; and
· if you hold your Bacanora Shares, or any of them, in uncertificated form (that is, in CREST), you should ensure that an Electronic Acceptance is made by you or on your behalf, and that settlement occurs, in relation to such uncertificated Bacanora Shares as soon as possible."
