@fischli: Danke für den Tipp. Da ich wahrscheinlich nicht der einzige bin, der nicht alle Beiträge im Goldboard liest, sollte man das wohl auch mal hier reinstellen in den einzigen Thread, der unter Normandy läuft. Unter http://www.franco-nevada.com/pdf/Fnl%2011-14-01.pdf findet man also den Grund. Das wichtigste für Normandy-Aktionäre ist dabei natürlich das folgende: For Immediate Release For Immediate Release For Immediate Release For Immediate Release NEWMONT TO CREATE WORLD’S LARGEST GOLD PRODUCER WITH ACQUISITIONS OF NORMANDY MINING AND FRANCO-NEVADA MINING Denver, Adelaide, Toronto, November 14, 2001 – Newmont Mining Corporation (NYSE: NEM), Normandy Mining Limited (AUS: NDY) and Franco-Nevada Mining Corporation Limited (TSE: FN) today announced transactions which provide for Newmont to acquire Normandy and Franco-Nevada, creating the world’s largest gold producer. The resulting company will be: •#1 in gold reserves (97 million ounces) •#1 in gold production (8 million ounces per year) •#1 in leverage to gold among majors •#1 in trading liquidity •#1 in EBITDA Newmont intends to make a recommended offer of 0.0385 shares of Newmont common stock for each Normandy common share. In addition, Newmont will pay A$0.05 per Normandy common share in cash if the Newmont offer is accepted by holders of at least 90% of the Normandy common shares, as described further below. Newmont also agreed to acquire Franco-Nevada in a stock-for-stock transaction, in which Franco-Nevada common shareholders will receive 0.8 of a share of Newmont common stock (or exchangeable shares, exchangeable for Newmont common stock) for each share of Franco-Nevada common stock pursuant to a Canadian Plan of Arrangement. The respective transactions have been approved and are recommended by the boards of directors of all three companies. The offer for Normandy, including the conditional cash component assuming 90% acceptance, represents A$1.70 per share based on closing stock prices and the exchange rate on Tuesday, November 13 and A$1.78 per share based on the volume average weighted average price of Newmont over the previous five days. The offer substantially represents a premium of 21% over the current value of the offer for Normandy announced by AngloGold Ltd. on September 5, 2001. Franco-Nevada, which owns 446 million shares (19.9%) of Normandy common stock, has granted to Newmont the right to acquire its block of Normandy common shares, exercisable at Newmont’s discretion, at the exchange ratio in its bid for Normandy. |
