(CercleFinance.com) – Miramar, the company behind the public takeover offer for Micropole, sought reassurance on Tuesday in the face of the rejection of its project by the specialist in the transformation of businesses through data (‘ data’).
In a press release released in the morning, Sebastian Lombardo’s company said it wanted to be part of ‘a constructive approach and dialogue’ with all of Micropole’s representative bodies.
As such, Miramar indicates that it has contacted the directors of Micropole, with whom a meeting is being organized in order to present the project for the company to them.
Miramar specifies that it has already presented, last week, its development project for Micropole and answered questions from members of the company’s Social and Economic Committee (CSE), rejoicing at the welcome received and the particularly constructive exchanges carried out at the occasion.
These statements come as Micropole judged that the proposed public purchase offer submitted by Miramar Holding was ‘hostile’ and that it did not express the full value of the company.
Following the submission of its offer, Miramar indicates that it has acquired on the market more than 1.2 million Micropole shares, representing 4.2% of the capital.
As a reminder, Nextstage AM, Micropole’s largest institutional shareholder with 15.5% of the capital, and Dorval AM, which holds 5.4% of the capital, have committed to contributing all of their stakes to the offer.
At this stage, Miramar can therefore claim to control a total of 25.1% of the capital of Micropole.
