Tender Offer
Further, the Company announces the result of its Tender Offer, which was announced on 3 September 2024. The Tender Offer was taken up in full and as such, the Company will purchase a total of 19,738,338 Ordinary Shares at the Tender Price of 88.59 pence per share (equivalent to the Company's NAV as at 30 August 2024).
19,438,134 Ordinary Shares were tendered in applications that will be met under the Basic Entitlement of Shareholders and a further 300,204 Ordinary Shares were tendered by Shareholders wishing to share in the Basic Entitlements which were not taken up by others (the Excess Applications).
Eligible Shareholders who validly tendered a percentage of their Ordinary Shares equal to or less than their Basic Entitlement shall have all tendered Ordinary Shares purchased in full under the Tender Offer. Eligible Shareholders who validly tendered Excess Applications shall have their Basic Entitlement and a pro rata proportion of their Excess Applications purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer.
Subject to the remaining conditions under the Repurchase Agreement having been met, Singer Capital Markets will purchase 19,738,338 Ordinary Shares by means of an on-market purchase from tendering Shareholders. Subject to Singer Capital Markets requiring the Company to repurchase such Ordinary Shares in accordance with the terms of the Repurchase Agreement, Singer Capital Markets will then sell the tendered Ordinary Shares acquired by it on to the Company pursuant to the terms of the Repurchase Agreement. All Ordinary Shares acquired by the Company from Singer Capital Markets under the Repurchase Agreement will be cancelled.
As previously announced, it is anticipated that the proceeds payable to Shareholders whose tendered Ordinary Shares are held through CREST accounts are expected to be made on 30 September 2024 and that cheques and balance share certificates for the certificated Ordinary Shares purchased under the Tender Offer will be despatched on 30 September 2024.
Total Voting Rights
Following the completion of the Tender Offer, the Company will have 97,848,021 Ordinary Shares in issue, with 179,569 Ordinary Shares held in treasury. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 97,668,452 and this figure may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
Defined terms used in this announcement have the meanings given in the Tender Circular unless the context otherwise requires.
