Silicon Products: ASE’s acquisition price is unreasonable
Taiwan packaging and testing manufacturer ASE’s intention to acquire Silicon Products has made new progress. Silicon Products' board of directors and review committee met on January 7 to discuss and came to the following two conclusions.
First, ASE’s acquisition price of NT$55 per share is unreasonable, and believes that the reasonable stock price of Silicon Products should be between 56.33 yuan and 68.6 yuan; secondly, given that both companies belong to the packaging and testing industry and Both occupy a large market share, so the merger of the two companies may face antitrust investigations by competent authorities in various countries or regions around the world. The board of directors of Silicon Products has reservations about this, and shareholders should decide for themselves whether to participate in the transaction.
It can be seen from the opinions given by Silicon Products that currently Silicon Products has not completely rejected ASE’s acquisition proposal. Could it be that Silicon Products has loosened its attitude? You must know that the board of directors of Silicon Products has been opposed to being completely acquired by ASE. After ASE launched its first hostile takeover, it also introduced the "white knight" Hon Hai Precision to fight against it. Or Silicon Products wants to make ASE quit by raising the acquisition price, because most of the funds in the cash acquisition plan of NT$55 per share and a total of NT$128 billion proposed by ASE need to be borrowed. Raising.
Of course, no matter what, Sipin’s statement is a response to ASE’s repeated urgings. Next, we will see whether ASE will meet Sipin’s demands.
