Semperit: Statements from the Executive Board and Supervisory Board on the
B&C takeover bid have been published
Vienna, May 4, 2026 – In a statement released today, the Executive Board
of Semperit AG Holding addresses what they consider to be the key
arguments for and against accepting the voluntary take-over offer made by
B&C Holding Österreich GmbH. The aim is to provide shareholders with a
framework to guide their individual decision-making. The Executive Board
refrains from making a definitive recommendation regarding whether to
accept or reject the offer. The Supervisory Board concurs with this
statement.
Among the factors considered in the decision to accept the offer is the
fact that the offer price of EUR 15.00 per share represents a premium of
25.2% over the unaffected closing share price as of 17 March 2026 (prior
to the announcement of the offer). In addition, the offer price is above
historical average prices and allows for the sale of the shares regardless
of current market liquidity.
Arguments against accepting the offer include the fact that the offer
price is below the carrying amount per share of EUR 20.20 per share as
well as below current analyst estimates of up to EUR 22.00 per share, and
thus does not reflect the full medium- to long-term potential for value
appreciation. Furthermore, by accepting the offer, shareholders forgo
potential future earnings opportunities.
Whether the offer is advantageous for a shareholder depends on the
individual circumstances, particularly the purchase price, investment
horizon, liquidity needs and tax considerations. In addition, the future
performance of the company, developments in the general capital market
environment and other external factors, must be taken into account. The
Executive Board and the Supervisory Board therefore recommend that
shareholders also give due consideration to their individual tax and
financial circumstances before making a decision and, if necessary, seek
expert advice.
