RE:Cogeco in play

autofocus111 wrote: Implications to the telcos? RCI will become bigger and stronger if they manage to get full control of CGO/CCA Canadian assets. Videotron looks like the loser here, but BCE may face increased competition as well. or is it less competition, as there's one less player in the Canadian telecommunications oligopoly? The Quebec/Canadian governments will probably frown on this development.

>>>Cogeco is being targeted for a takeover by Altice USA Inc. in partnership with Rogers Communications Inc. – and the proposal is already running into resistance. According to a press release Wednesday morning, Altice USA presented an offer to buy Cogeco Inc. (CGO) and Cogeco Communications Inc. (CCA) for $10.3 billion. That purchase price includes the value of Cogeco shares already owned by Rogers. Under the arrangement proposed by Altice USA, it would take control of Cogeco’s Atlantic Broadband operations in the United States and sell Cogeco’s Canadian assets to Rogers. In an effort to win support for the proposal from Cogeco executive chairman Louis Audet, Atlice said it’s offering “a sizeable premium” on the multiple-voting shares held by the Audet family. Altice is otherwise offering $106.53 per subordinate voting share of Cogeco and $134.22 per share of Cogeco Communications.
