The average premium for the new deals announced (or first discussed) in September was ~26% and the YTD average premium for all deals discussed on Smartkarma (106 all-in) is 33%.  The average for all deals discussed on Smartkarma in 2019 (145 deals all-in) was 31.5%.

At present, it is difficult to gauge what level of control premium the acquirer will be willing to pay for Allcargo Logistics (AGLL IN) and it is unlikely that we will find the answer until the RBB process is complete. 

The Offer(s) for British bookmaker William Hill (WMH LN) are as yet not official. 


The charts below provide a snapshot of deals YTD discussed on Smartkarma. Where the deal is a merger of equals or similar, I've assigned no premium.
