Takeover News/Rumours - Part 42

[Vincemac]

Unlikely. The deal will most likely be priced in sterling, with a locked in Euro equivalent in the contract. That gives KLD some potential risk, but a) that can be hedged and b) the exchange movement is unlikely to be material with currency bought forward.

Not long now

just an uneducated guess here, but maybe the announcement may have implications for legal and/or tax reasons, maybe being beneficial to register the sale/ takeover in 2021 rather than 2020? If so I'm sure we can wait another week or so, I'm sure there's a good reason. Again, purely a guess, but hopefully very soon.

December 2020 and January 2021 are the same year, tax-wise.

Not long now

If it's a race between this deal and the Brexit one, they'd better get a lick on.

In the U.K., not France (although as the buyer I’m not sure what the impact to KLD would be unless he’s selling shares or property or something to part finance the deal).

For anyone who puts any credence into what Alan Nixon says he said on twitter tonight he thinks it will happen

Said it’s positive and working on the numbers but wouldn’t put a timescale on it

 

[naughtynose]

Me too.

 

[KLD]

Said it’s positive and working on the numbers but wouldn’t put a timescale on it

Said tonight he thinks it will happen. Well that it looks positive it will happen

 

[Abu Dhabi Red and White]

Watch this space.I personally think the fans will be happy with the outcome.

Anything different to what has already been put forward?

Genuiely, how would he have a clue to give an update like that? His replies to any question on his Twitter read like he has a book of "acceptably vague responses to questions".

Could brexit or exchange rates be a cause of delay? I’d expect exchange rates to somehow be hedged?

not with Sartori but possibly with KLD.

it means nothing as usual, probably Donald is dithering and fuck all has been agreed, unfortunately the £2.7 free money can help him to dither for longer

its bollocks mate anyone could say what he has

 

[Abu Dhabi Red and White]

Mate f***ing everything has been put forward on here.

Aye, but the consistent one is the French lad, Juan, Stewie and Charlie. Anything different to that?

Yeah literally what I said. Just put it on there so others didn’t have to check his tweets. One below it says still working on the numbers.

KLD's nationality is a bit of a mystery. He could be French, Swiss or both. The family and its business are based in Geneva. so that's where he's most likely to be a taxpayer.

 

[KLD]

Yeah literally what I said. Just put it on there so others didn’t have to check his tweets

So as i said he seems to be of the opinion it will happen
