Tender Offer

Whitbread plc Ordinary 76 122/153p Shares

Type:
Tender Offer
Shareholder action required:
Yes
Status:
Cash due
Details (last updated 28 Jun 2019)

What is happening?

 

Whitbread plc has opened a Tender Offer to buy up to 24.99% of its Shares, for a total cost of up to £2 billion. The offer allows Whitbread to buy Shares at a ‘purchase price’ to be set, which will be the lowest price between an upper and lower limit at which they can accept tenders totalling up to £2 billion.

 

What does this mean?

 

The Tender Offer has the following features:


• The eventual purchase price will be based on an average price of the ordinary Shares over the 5 days to 19 July 2019. This is known as the volume-weighted average price (VWAP). The minimum price will be the VWAP and the maximum price will be the VWAP plus 4%, capped at £50.
• You can decide what price you want to tender (i.e. ask to sell) your Shares at within the limit set, i.e. VWAP, VWAP +1%, VWAP +2%, VWAP +3% or VWAP +4%. Or you can tender at the purchase price, i.e. whatever price is ultimately set.
• If you tender your Shares for an amount less than or equal to the eventual purchase price, you will receive the purchase price for any shares successfully sold.
• If you tender your shares for more than the purchase price your instruction will be rejected and your Shares will be returned to you.
• If you tender your shares at a price lower than the eventual purchase price it is expected that your election will be satisfied in full. If you tender at the eventual purchase price you may not sell all of the Shares you ask to tender.

 

What are my options?

 

All instructions must be received in this office by noon on Thursday 18 July 2019. Cash in respect of successful tenders is expected to be paid from 30 July 2019.

 

Option 1 – Tender a number of Shares. You can choose to tender at a price between the VWAP and the VWAP plus 4% (in increments of 1% of the VWAP), or you can tender at the Purchase Price. Any election must state the number of Shares you wish to tender.

 

Option 2 – Do nothing. You don’t have to take part in the offer. If you don’t, you’ll retain your current holding.

 

If you wish to split a tender between different prices please phone us on 0117 900 9000 to give your instruction.  

 

Full details of this event will be sent to Qualifying Hargreaves Lansdown clients by either post or secure message. Please note that any instruction you give must be based on the full details provided in the letter and not on the summary information outlined above.

The London Stock Exchange does not disclose whether a trade is a buy or a sell so this data is estimated based on the trade price received and the LSE-quoted mid-price at the point the trade is placed. It should only be considered an indication and not a recommendation.

Trades priced above the mid-price at the time the trade is placed are labelled as a buy; those priced below the mid-price are sells; and those priced close to the mid-price or declared late are labelled ‘N/A’.
