JOINT ASX /MEDIA RELEASE
Macmahon Holdings Limited last week announced an unsolicited takeover offer for all of the shares in Ausdrill Limited (ASX Code: ASL).
The Ausdrill Board has conducted an initial review of the proposed all scrip offer and believes that the offer is inadequate and opportunistic. Ausdrill has appointed Lazard Carnegie Wylie and Argonaut Capital Limited as corporate advisors and Cochrane Lishman as legal advisors.
The Board will continue to review the proposed offer with its advisors and will provide further advice to shareholders in due course. Meanwhile shareholders are encouraged to take no action.
