Halcyon Agri (HACL SP): Board Recommends Conditional MGO
- The IFA opines that China Hainan Rubber Industry (601118 CH)‘s MGO at S$0.413 per share is fair and reasonable. The Halcyon Agri (HACL SP) Board recommends accepting the offer.
- Since the offer opened on 24 February, there have been no acceptances. Perhaps minorities held off until the full-year results and the IFA report. Board recommendation should drive acceptance.
- The 50%+ minimum acceptance condition requires around 40% of minorities acceptance rate (47% excluding the Gondobintoro Family). This remains achievable. At the last close, the gross spread is 2.0%.
Heavy Lifting
- The heavy equipment dealership industry, known for its lucrative opportunities, has consolidated significantly in recent years, with major players acquiring smaller dealerships.
- Alta Equipment, based in Michigan, has emerged as a beneficiary of this trend, expanding its geographic reach and gaining access to trained technicians, giving it a competitive advantage over smaller players.
- However, as the industry continues to consolidate, will Alta be able to maintain its momentum, or will it face challenges from larger rivals?
