Micropole: Miramar tries to calm things down

(CercleFinance.com) - Miramar, the company behind the takeover bid for Micropole, sought to calm the situation on Tuesday in the face of the rejection of its project by the data-driven business transformation specialist

.
In a press release issued this morning, Sebastian Lombardo's company stated its intention to pursue a "constructive approach and dialogue" with all of Micropole's representative bodies.

To this end, Miramar states that it has contacted Micropole's senior management, with whom a meeting is currently being organized to present the company's project.

Miramar adds that last week it already presented its development project for Micropole and answered questions from members of the company's Social and Economic Committee (CSE), expressing its delight at the welcome received and the particularly constructive discussions held on this occasion.

These statements come at a time when Micropole has judged Miramar Holding's proposed takeover bid to be "hostile" and that it did not express the full value of the company.

Following the filing of its bid, Miramar has indicated that it has acquired more than 1.2 million Micropole shares on the market, representing 4.2% of the capital.

As a reminder, Nextstage AM, Micropole's leading institutional shareholder with 15.5% of the capital, and Dorval AM, which holds 5.4% of the capital, have undertaken to contribute all their holdings to the offer.

At this stage, Miramar can therefore claim to control a total of 20.9% of Micropole's capital.
