Intrepid Mines Limitedâs (ASX:IAU) share price advanced by 28.75 percent on 19 September 2018 after the company announced that it has entered into takeover implementation deed in respect of an off-market takeover offer to be made by Intrepid for all the issued ordinary shares in A1C (AIC Resources Ltd).
Under the takeover bid, Intrepid is offering 1 Intrepid share for every three shares of A1C. Under the ASX Listing rules, this transaction is classified as âreverse takeoverâ and it is also subjected to the approval of Intrepid shareholders.
This offer will provide several benefits to both A1C and Intrepid, as the combined entity of both companies will have a large contiguous land holding which is highly prospective for base metals and gold in Western Australia. The combined entity will also be benefited from strong cash balance and the general and administration costs will also reduce which will allow the entity for more ground expenditure. This offer is subject to various conditions like receipt for acceptance of minimum 90% of A1Câs shares, successful competition of Mumbwa and Kitumba copper projects of Intrepid, and approval of intrepid shareholders.
