Esso Thailand: Ignore Bangchak Corp’s Takeunder

By David Blennerhassett

  • Back on the 11 January, refiner/retailer Bangchak Corporation (BCP TB)‘s board approved the purchase of a 65.99% stake in Esso Thailand (ESSO TB) from Exxon Mobil.
  • The purchase price remains indeterminate (the indicative price is Bt8.84/share), based on a pricing adjustment mechanism as it relates to Esso’s financial accounts at the close of the stake purchase.
  • Esso is down 17% since the announcement, and 37% from its recent (Oct-22) high. That seems excessive.
