Business Wire
Netshoes (Cayman) Limited (NYSE: NETS) announces that it
has received on May 28, 2019 a revised unsolicited proposal from
Grupo SBF S.A., a sociedade anônima incorporated under the laws of
Brazil and with shares listed in the Brazilian stock exchange (B3)
under ticker “CNTO3” (“Centauro”), for purchase of all of the
outstanding common shares of Netshoes through a merger transaction
pursuant to which Netshoes shareholders would receive a payment in
cash of US$3.50 for each share of Netshoes common stock. Centauro’s
offer also set forth other features to address specific concerns
previously raised by Netshoes as to its prior offer.
As previously announced, on May 26, 2019, following approval
from the Netshoes’ board of directors, Netshoes entered into an
amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 29, 2019
with Magazine Luiza S.A. and its wholly-owned subsidiary located in
the Cayman Islands, pursuant to which Magazine Luiza S.A. would
acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Netshoes at a price
of US$3.00 per share in cash for each common share (as amended, the
“Merger Agreement”).
Netshoes today notified Magazine Luiza S.A. of the receipt of
the revised Centauro proposal. In accordance with the terms of the
Merger Agreement and its fiduciary obligations under the laws of
the Cayman Islands, and in consultation with its financial and
legal advisors, Netshoes’ board of directors will carefully review
Centauro’s revised proposal to determine the course of action that
it believes is in the best interest of the Netshoes’ shareholders.
Pending the completion of such review, the Netshoes board has not
made any determination as to whether Centauro’s revised proposal
constitutes a superior proposal under the terms of the Merger
Agreement. Accordingly, the board reaffirms its existing
recommendation of the transaction with Magazine Luiza S.A. without
qualification.
In order to allow the Company to evaluate these latest
developments and advise Netshoes’ shareholders as to the superior
offer and recommended course of action with adequate time prior to
the upcoming shareholders’ meeting, which was called to be held on
Thursday, May 30, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. (São Paulo time) (10:00 a.m.
Eastern time), Netshoes and Magazine Luiza S.A. have mutually
agreed that no business shall be transacted at such meeting.
Netshoes and Magazine Luiza S.A. expect to agree on a new date for
the shareholders meeting in the coming days.
