Life Storage Inc. said Thursday that its board of directors has
rejected a takeover offer from competitor Public Storage.
The owner and operator of self-storage properties said its board
considered that the unsolicted offer submitted by Public Storage on
Feb. 5 "significantly undervalues" its growth potential.
Public Storage's takeover proposal had an implied value of about
$126.14 per share or unit, or an equity value of around $11 billion
as of Wednesday's market close, it noted.
"The board believes Life Storage will deliver greater
risk-adjusted total shareholder returns as a standalone company
than through the proposed transaction," Non-Executive Chairman Mark
G. Barberio said.
Life Storage's share price fell 0.45% to $299.56 in regular U.S.
trading on Thursday.
