Theiss’ offer of A$1.075 per share for MACA Ltd (MLD AU) has been declared unconditional despite acquiring 44.30% of outstanding shares, below the 50% threshold.
The offer has met with resistance from retail shareholders as it remains below NRW’s rejected offer, and there is a lack of clarity on franking credits. 
Thiess can restart on-market purchases from 27 September. The offer closes on 7 October. The shares are trading in line with the offer.


MACA’s A$1.075 Offer from Theiss Declared Unconditional

<ul>
<li>Theiss has improved its <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/maca-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:11390:1" rel="noopener">MACA Ltd (MLD AU)</a> offer from A$1.025 to A$1.075 per share. The offer is conditional on 90% minimum acceptances, FIRB approval and no prescribed occurrences.</li>
<li>Theiss increased its shareholding to 15.90% of outstanding shares due to acceptances from MACA founders and directors. This is a stumbling block to a potential <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/nrw-holdings-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:9271:1" rel="noopener">NRW Holdings (NWH AU)</a> scheme. </li>
<li>While the value of NRW’s default option remains higher than Thiess’ revised offer, it is increasingly unlikely that NRW will start a bidding war. </li>
