Swoop Holdings (ASX:SWP) has launched an off-market takeover offer to acquire all remaining shares in Vonex Limited not already owned by it. The offer lacks a cash component, prompting Vonex's Board to prefer an alternative offer from Maxo Telecommunications. Swoop plans to secure financing to include a cash alternative in its offer, intending to surpass the MaxoTel offer of $0.044 per Vonex share.
Swoop Holdings is making strategic moves to acquire the remaining shares of Vonex Limited, with an off-market takeover bid. The company is actively seeking financing to add a cash component to its offer, hoping to present a more attractive alternative to the existing MaxoTel offer. Swoop plans to issue a supplementary bidder's statement and allow Vonex shareholders to reconsider their choices if the offer conditions change. Despite these efforts, there is no certainty that the necessary financing will be secured. The company is focused on providing competitive terms and enhancing shareholder value as part of its long-term corporate strategy.
The Swoop Board remains committed to pursuing the Vonex acquisition and is actively seeking financing to enhance the offer's attractiveness to Vonex shareholders. We aim to provide a superior alternative to the current MaxoTel offer.
