Independent Experts Report
Unfair
-
Fairness was calculated using a comparison between the offer price and the value attributed to the securities under offer.
-
The rights issue offer price of A$0.045 was a midpoint of the previous month trading range of A$0.041 to A$0.05. In the opinion of the independent expert, the transaction is unfair because the offer price should have been higher.
-
The proposal would be fair to shareholders if the issue price was greater than or equal to the implicit value of the shares in Globe currently on issue.
Reasonable
- The rights issue is reasonable because the offer price meets the Company objectives as outlined in the rights issue offer document, and that equity funding in the current market is difficult.
==> picture [94 x 35] intentionally omitted <==
- An offer can be reasonable even if not fair if there are sufficient grounds to accept in the absence of any higher bid. 11
