Carlyle is offering SNP shareholders an offer price of € 61.00 per SNP share in cash. The offer price includes an attractive premium of 13.4% on the XETRA price of the SNP share at the close of the day’s trading on December 20, 2024, the final day of trading before the announcement of the submission of the offer. Furthermore, the offer price corresponds to a premium of 17.2% on the volume-weighted three-month average share price prior to the announcement of the launch of the offer. SNP shareholders have the opportunity to accept the offer until March 7, 2025, at 12:00 a.m. (Frankfurt am Main local time).

Carlyle secured the support of the offer by the shareholders of SNP by means of a share purchase agreement with the majority shareholder, Wolfgang Marguerre, for 65.19% of SNP shares and irrevocable tender agreements with other shareholders, who together represent 11.06% of SNP’s total share capital. Through this support and the additional acquisition of shares on the open market, Carlyle has thus already secured 77.55% of the total share capital of SNP.

The completion of the offer is subject to the usual antitrust and foreign trade approvals. After the offer has been completed, Carlyle intends to delist the company from the stock exchange.
