Alpha Lithium (NEO: ALLI) is set to be fully acquired by Tecpetrol, following the approval by shareholders of a privatization plan at a special meeting.
The privatization will see the remaining shareholders of the company receive one redeemable preferred share for each share of Alpha currently held. The preferred share will then automatically be redeemed for cash consideration of $1.48 per each, following the completion of the acquisition of Alpha by Tecpetrol.
The go-private transaction follows a tender offer program that enabled Tecpetrol to acquire a 67.4% stake in the lithium explorer. The successful tender, which occurred at $1.48 per share, follows a prior offer that was rejected by the company at a price of $1.24. Following an increase in late September of its offer, the board of Alpha Lithium recommend the deal, which followed a major shareholder also endorsing the transaction.
