RE:RE:RE:RE:There was never a serious offer, just a rumor of an offerPlease focus on the facts.
The facts are these failed rumoured buyout suitors were private equity apparently invited to the table by by the consulting investment banking outfit. Greenhill & Co?
And to add more relevant facts to this. Jordan Kupinsky, the "Lead Independent Director" at Concordia has some past and possible current relationship with Greenhill. Interesting?
He also seems to have a fair amount of experience with "private equity" as well.
