Temasek-backed Cuscaden announces offer for SPH

Two options were elaborated in their announcement.

Cuscaden Peak Pte. Ltd. entered into an Implementation Agreement with Singapore Press Holdings (SPH) to acquire all the issued and paid-up ordinary shares in the capital of SPH.

Under the Cuscaden Scheme, each SPH shareholder can choose between an All Cash Consideration or a Cash and Units Consideration, with both options having a consideration value of up to $2.4001 per share.

SPH recognised this offer as superior to the Keppel Scheme with a consideration value of up to S$2.351 per share. This led the SPH Independent Directors to view against the Keppel Scheme and voted in favour of the Cuscaden Scheme.

The transaction is expected to be completed by February 2022.

A chain offer may also be triggered in compliance with the Take-Overs and Mergers Code, which, if Cuscaden and its parties hold more than 30% of SPH REIT units. If put into effect, the minimum offer price will be $0.964 per SPH REIT Unit.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
