On April 16th, we announced that SPARK Advisory Partners had advised Regent Gas Ltd on the recommended cash offer for TClarke for approximately £91m. We’re delighted to update that the transaction completed via a Scheme of Arrangement under the Takeover Code on June 25th. As an existing shareholder owning c.21.5 per cent. of TClarke shares, Regent has now taken control of the contractor through this £91m acquisition. Regent Gas, led by Deep Valecha, is a prominent British commercial gas supplier and provider of comprehensive natural gas connection and metering services. TClarke, established in 1889, is the UK’s leading engineering services company. The company serves as a first-choice contractor for building services. This M&A transaction follows SPARK’s advice to Morson on the sale to Onex and Unique X’s £64m private fundraise earlier this year. SPARK’s corporate finance & M&A team comprises over 125 years of transaction experience and has a track record of working with companies, providing unbiased, growth-focused advice to build great businesses.

It isn’t really enough for FPL to deny knowing that anything is happening, in my view. When controlling shareholders decide to change tack, things can go very badly for minority investors – think Sembcorp Marine and Boustead Projects. FPL’s board should be trying to ensure minorities are not left out in the cold; or, at least, that minorities are aware of what may be about to happen. Here’s the latest #MarkToMarket column, which ran in today’s edition of #TheBusinessTimes: https://lnkd.in/gZ8VqDa8

Bell Equipment and Sasfin are the latest companies to announce their departure from the JSE. 🚪 This follows a growing trend of South African companies seeking alternative avenues for growth and financing. Bell Equipment, a prominent player in the heavy equipment industry, is being taken private by its founding family. This move offers shareholders a significant premium but also signals a loss of a valuable listing for the JSE. Sasfin, a financial services group, is opting for a delisting as it refocuses its business. While minority shareholders are being offered a premium, it's another blow to the JSE's depth in the financial sector. These departures highlight the challenges facing the JSE in attracting and retaining listings. As the exchange competes with global markets, it's crucial to address the factors driving companies away.

Tratos announced the #acquisition of AFL Telecommunications Europe, based in #Swindon, #UK, and Endurance Telnet, based in #Zaragoza, #Spain. These acquisitions are crucial in our strategy to strengthen Tratos’ presence across Europe. Albano Bragagni, Tratos President, emphasizes the strategic choice of the UK and Spain for expansion. “These countries offer regulatory environments similar to Italy’s, facilitating quicker project implementation. In the UK, we’re expanding into the niche market of submarine cable components for telecom applications, while in Spain, our new production site will support a range of initiatives. Additionally, Germany remains a key market for our exports, and we have significant operations beyond #Europe, particularly in Brazil and China,” said Albano Bragagni.
