RE:RE:RE:RE:New Press Release - Victoria Gold: Notice of Expiry of Offer for ATAC Resources
RE:RE:RE:RE:New Press Release - Victoria Gold: Notice of Expiry of Offer for ATAC ResourcesI don't think you have to disclose unless the offer is accepted. Today SBB and B2Gold disclosed that they had entered into an agreement for B2Gold to acquire SBB. Victoria is now making their offer public because it was rejected by ATAC Board and they are hoping that SBB shareholders will rebel.
I suspect that this was the reason for the huge BYN volume and price decline today.
M&A is heating up and we are vulnerable to a hostile takeover bid.
B2Gold is offering $1.1 billion in shares for SBB for a project that is forecast to produce 233,000 oz/yr over 15 years. But production is not until 2025 and $600 million in additional capital is required to complete construction.
Meanwhile Victoria is aiming to be producing at a similar rate by 2025 and we have a market cap of just over $600 million - what SBB needs just to complete construction.
