Pacific Smiles (PSQ AU), an operator of dental centers, has announced - and immediately rejected - a non-binding proposal from Genesis Capital Manager.
Genesis, holder of 18.75% of shares out, has offered A$1.40/share, by way of a Scheme. That's a less-than-inspiring 17.1% premium to last close. 
PSQ calls the Offer "opportunistically timed". That has merit, after the share price recently touched a multi-year low.  Separately, PSQ is seeking a new CEO after Mckenzie resigned in August.
