Statement re Proposed Recommended Cash Offer

3 Feb 2017 15:51

RNS Number : 0295W
NetDimensions (Holdings) Limited
03 February 2017
 

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

NetDimensions (Holdings) Limited

("NetDimensions" or the "Company")

 

Statement re Proposed Recommended Cash Offer

 

The board of directors of NetDimensions ("Board") notes the announcement made on 3 February 2017 ("Announcement") by Learning Technologies Group Plc ("LTG") and is pleased to confirm to NetDimensions shareholders that it has reached agreement on the terms of a proposed recommended all cash offer by LTG at 100 pence per share (the "Offer") for the entire issued and to be issued share capital of the Company.

 

The Offer represents a substantial premium of 118.6 per cent. to the closing mid-market price of 45.75 pence per share on 4 October 2016, being the day prior to the Board's announcement that it had received an unsolicited approach. The Board has since been engaged with interested parties regarding a potential transaction and is pleased to be moving forward with LTG, as reflected in the irrevocable undertakings to accept the Offer given by those directors who also hold shares in the Company. These undertakings, given in respect of a total of 8,964,027 shares and representing approximately 17.48 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital (as set out in the Announcement), demonstrate the strength of the commitment to and support for the Offer of the relevant directors in light of the premium referred to above.

 

The Offer is also well supported by certain other major shareholders of the Company, who have provided irrevocable undertakings to accept the Offer on the terms set out in the Announcement in respect of a further 20,027,480 shares in aggregate, representing approximately 39.06 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital.

 

Commenting on the Offer, Graham Higgins, Chairman of NetDimensions, said:

 

"The board of NetDimensions is very pleased to have reached agreement on the terms of a proposed recommended cash offer by LTG, a business we know well, having collaborated on customer assignments with them in the past. The Offer, once made, will present an opportunity to crystallise value and provide liquidity for our shareholders as a whole."
