Nordic Telephone Company, developed by a consortium of private equity firms, has made a public tender recommendation for Denmark's leading telecommunications company, TDC. TDC's board of directors approved the take-private trade, and 88% of investors have accepted the offer.
Nordic Telephone Company's Bid for TDC Case Study Solution
Nordic Telephone must increase 90% of the shares of TDC to force compulsory redemption under Denmark law. Nonetheless, a pension fund that held 5.5% of the outstanding stock has rejected the offer. Should Nordic Telephone lower its acceptance threshold that is 90% and purchase TDC with no guarantee of complete possession, or should TDC walk away from the table?
