Mineral Resources (MIN AU) has launched an all-scrip off-market takeover offer at 1 MIN share for every 1,367 Norwest Energy Nl (NWE AU) shares, a 33.3% premium to undisturbed price.
There is no minimum acceptance condition, and the offer is only subject to prescribed occurrences. The timing is opportunistic and motivated by recent Perth Basin consolidation activity. 
While the offer implies a premium to historical prices, the gross exchange ratio is unattractive. MIN’s key aim is privatisation, and a bump is likely required to achieve that goal.
