Subject: [sharechat] Otter gold and
takeover offer
Interesting
news for otter and GPG shareholders.
As a GPG shareholder its good to see. They
had written off their
investment in otter, it now looks like they will
be getting something back.
Needs 50.1% backing to go ahead. Will
GPG be accepting or
holding out for more?. They dont have 50%
but what they decide is
sure to 8nfluence other otter
shareholders.
Heres part of the extract
below.
Nick
Normandy NFM today announced its intention to launch a takeover offer
for
Otter Gold Mines, whereby 1.9 Normandy NFM shares are offered for every
100
Otter shares. Based on the last sale price for Normady NFM
yesterday of
$9.30 this offer values each Otter share at 17.67cps.
This represents a
premium of 68% to yesterday's closing price for Otter
shares of 10.5c.
Normandy NFM will also make a nominal cash offer for the
outstanding listed
and unlisted options.
