Warrego Energy: Reinhart Disses Strike’s “Superior” Offer

By David Blennerhassett

  • After the Gina Reinhart-backed Hancock bumped its Offer for Warrego Energy (WGO AU) to A$0.28/share, in cash, Beach Energy (BPT AU) declined to match the revised Offer.  
  • With Hancock seemingly in the driver’s seat, Strike Energy (STX AU), with 19.9% of shares out, proposed a one-for-one scrip Offer, with an indicative price of A$0.335/share.
  • Hancock has responded that its Offer provides certainty, with cash, whereas Strike’s proposal does not. Now 15.84% of the register has come out in support of Hancock’s Offer.
