Trading At Terms As Orecorp Rebuffs Perseus’ All-Cash Bid
- In OreCorp: Silvercorp Switches To Off-Market Bid, after Silvercorp Metals (SVM CN) switched to an off-market Offer for Orecorp Ltd (ORR AU), I expected Perseus Mining (PRU AU) to counter.
- Orecorp announced this morning Perseus (with 19.9% of shares out) has pitched an all-cash Offer of A$0.55/share, primarily conditional on getting to 50.1%
- Orecorp has responded by saying Perseus Offer is not superior to Silvercorp cash/scrip terms. Perhaps it’s Orecorp’s way of (temporarily) skirting the break fee and letting the market decide.
Quiddity Leaderboard ASX Mar 24: Exp ADDs Vs DELs Trade Successful; More to Come?
- In this insight, we take a look at the potential index changes for ASX 300, 200, 100, 50, and 20 in the run-up to the March 2024 index review.
- The conclusion of the Costa Group Holdings (CGC AU) M&A deal could trigger an index change in February 2024.
- Separately, there could be a “surprise” index change in March 2024 caused by a long-term trading suspension.
OreCorp (ORR AU): Perseus Rivals Silvercorp with an All-Cash Takeover Offer
- Perseus Mining (PRU AU)’s competing all-cash takeover offer for Orecorp Ltd (ORR AU) is A$0.55, a 4.0% premium to the implied value of the Silvercorp Metals (SVM CN) off-market takeover offer.
- The Board opines that the PRU offer is not superior. Since announcing the revised SVM scheme on 23 November, the PRU offer has averaged 3.0% lower than the SVM offer.
- The SVM offer, which closes on 23 February, has struggled to gain traction. PRU has the balance sheet to sweeten its offer and gain shareholder traction.
Fortescue Metals (FMG AU): 8% Yield At Spot Price With Risks, Wait For Better Entry Point
- In the world of 8-10% dividend-yielding commodities, Fortescue Metals (FMG AU) almost makes the cut. We would wait for a better entry point here despite iron ore strength.
- We are also mindful of the risks associated with capex in the green energy space to achieve zero emissions and ramp costs with the recent production increase.
- We believe numbers are at par, trading at 9.6x PE on the current spot price (130 USD/ton) with a 7% dividend yield ( assuming a 65% payout ratio).
Sovereign Metals Limited (SVM) – Monday, Oct 23, 2023
Key points (machine generated)
- Apple’s focus on carbon-neutral products and use of titanium in iPhone 15 Pro is driving interest in titanium resources.
- Sovereign Metals’ discovery of the world’s largest undeveloped natural rutile deposit has attracted the attention of Rio Tinto, which recently became the largest shareholder in the company.
- Titanium is considered a critical material due to supply shortages and China-controlled supply chains, with its use in Apple products highlighting its growing importance. Investment in Sovereign Metals offers an interesting opportunity, especially given the lack of upcoming funding requirements and a discount to Rio Tinto’s entry price.
