Anglo American (AGL, AAL): JSE Index Effects of Potential Takeover or Restructuring

European Event-Driven Analyst

Jesus Rodriguez Aguilar

<ul>
<li>On 27 April, Reuters reported that BHP is considering making an improved offer for Anglo American after its initial proposal was rejected. Anglo's shares trade at 0.3% discount to proposal.</li>
<li>BHP is not paying any control premium. Despite its robust portfolio and recent share price appreciation, Anglo trades at a 18% discount compared to the sum of its parts (3018p). </li>
<li>Interloper risk is high. Antitrust risk seems low. As a defence, Anglo may conduct some portfolio simplification to unlock value. I would be long at current prices.</li>
