Magna Recommends Rejection of "Mini-Tender" Offer

AURORA, Ontario, Aug. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Magna International Inc. (TSX: MG; NYSE: MGA) today reported that it has received notice of an unsolicited mini-tender offer made by TRC Capital Investment Corporation (“TRC Capital”) to purchase up to 2,000,000 Magna Common Shares, or less than 1% of Magna’s outstanding Common Shares, at a price of CDN $57.90 per share. Magna cautions shareholders that the mini-tender offer has been made at a price below recent market prices, representing a discount of 4.49% to the closing price of Magna’s Common Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) on July 29, 2024, the last trading day before the mini-tender offer commenced. Although the offering price represents a premium of 7.58% to yesterday’s closing price of Magna Common Shares on the TSX of CDN $53.82, the offer is highly conditional. TRC Capital’s offer states that it may withdraw its offer if, among other things, the market price of Magna Common Shares falls below CDN $57.58, for reference, the closing price on the TSX for Magna Common Shares on August 8, 2024, was CDN $53.82, which is already below this threshold; additionally, TRC Capital’s offer is not fully funded and is conditioned upon receipt of necessary financing on terms it deems reasonable in its sole discretion.
