Stocks of integrated energy firm Petroteq Energy Inc (TSXV:PQE) catapulted by 8.8 per cent to close at C$ 0.185 apiece on Wednesday, August 4, 2021, with nearly 1.3 million shares exchanging hands.
The jump likely came in the backdrop of a possible takeover by an unnamed client managed by German firm Uppgrad Konsult AB. The takeover offer was filed on April 16, 2021, in the German Federal Gazette, Petroteq informed in a statement on Tuesday.
To achieve a majority, a minimum holding of 200 million shares of Petroteq was offered, which was later increased to 270 million shares at a premium of €0.50 apiece.
The Canadian legal counsel, Gowling WLG (Canada) LLP, would discuss the possibilities of the friendly takeover soon.
