Statement from the Board of Directors of Jetpak Top Holding AB (publ) regarding the increased mandatory offer from Pak Logistik Intressenter AB
This statement is made by the Board of Directors of Jetpak Top Holding AB (publ) ("Jetpak" or the "Company") pursuant to section II.19 of the Takeover rules for certain trading platforms adopted by the the Stock Market Self-Regulation Committee issued on 1 January 2024 (the "Takeover Rules").
Background
On 7 June 2024, Pak Logistik Intressenter AB ("Pak Logistik Intressenter") submitted a public cash offer to the shareholders in Jetpak to tender all their shares in Jetpak at SEK 93.32 per share (the "Mandatory Offer"). On 19 June 2024, Notalp Logistik AB (name changed from Goldcup 35626 AB) ("Notalp Logistik" or "BidCo")[1] announced a voluntary cash offer to the shareholders of Jetpak to tender all their shares in Jetpak at an offer price in cash of SEK 98.00 per share (the "Voluntary Offer"), which on 6 September 2024 was increased to SEK 104.50 in cash per share. On 13 September 2024, the Board of Directors of Jetpak issued a statement regarding the increased Voluntary Offer where the Board of Directors, based on inter alia the independent fairness opinion from Deloitte AB ("Deloitte"), recommended the shareholders of Jetpak to accept the Voluntary Offer.
In light of the Voluntary Offer being declared unconditional on 23 September 2024, Pak Logistik Intressenter has announced that the offer price in the Mandatory Offer has been increased to the same offer price as in the increased Voluntary Offer of SEK 104.50 in cash per share.
Shares in tendered in the Mandatory Offer will be contributed to Notalp Logistik.
Statement from the Board of Directors regarding the increased Mandatory Offer
On 13 September 2024, the Board of Directors announced its recommendation to the shareholders of Jetpak to accept the increased Voluntary Offer of SEK 104.50 per share in light of, among other things, the independent fairness opinion from Deloitte that the offer was fair from a financial point of view. For the reasons included in the Board of Directors' recommendation regarding the increased Voluntary Offer, the Board of Directors recommend the Company's shareholders who have not accepted the Voluntary Offer to accept the increased Mandatory Offer.
Shareholders who have already tendered their shares in Jetpak at SEK 93.32 in cash per share will automatically benefit from the Increased Mandatory Offer Price of SEK 104.50 in cash per share.
Isabel Hummel is the Chair of the Board of Directors of Tuna Holding, a member of the Consortium, and is a member of the Board of Directors of Jetpak since the annual general meeting held on 11 June 2024. Consequently, Isabel Hummel has a conflict of interest pursuant to section II.18 of the Takeover Rules. In accordance with the Takeover Rules, Isabel Hummel has therefore not participated, and will not participate, in Jetpak's handling of or decisions regarding the Mandatory Offer.
