Wattyl Limited - Panel Publishes Reasons
The Takeovers Panel (the Panel) has today published the reason for its decision in relation to an application from AEP Financial Investments Pty Ltd dated 1 April 2006 (see TP06/22).
These are the Panel’s reasons for declining an application by Commander in relation to Volante’s target’s statement. The Panel considered that an undertaking from Volante to make additional disclosure about a number of issues, including its success in converting “preferred tenderer” status to confirmed contracts, and clarification concerning the proposed acquisition of a business, would correct any unacceptable circumstances as a result of Volante’s target’s statement.
