A month ago, known active (and occasional activist and concentrated investor) Effissimo Capital Management announced an unsolicited partial Tender Offer to purchase 4,834,343 shares of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/sanken-electric-co-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:6073:1" rel="noopener">Sanken Electric (6707 JP)</a> to take it from 9.97% to 30.00% at ¥5210/share. The announcement was deliberately couched in terms to make it seem friendly. Effissimo is not going for negative control, or seeking to interfere with management in any way. They say they just want more stock. The shares, which had recently traded from the area of the Tender Offer Price down to sub-¥4500/share, immediately bounced, trading 10% through terms on the first full day of trading after going limit up on Day 1.<section class="figure"><figure class="editor-figure mceNonEditable"><img src="https://static-prod.smartkarma.com/images/media/000/192/998/original/Screenshot+2021-03-09+at+3.51.32+PM.png?1615276314" class="editor-image img-responsive" data-smartkarma-image-id="192998"></figure></section>Since then, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/allegro-microsystems" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:29707:1" rel="noopener">Allegro MicroSystems (ALGM US)</a> shares - Sanken's 52% subsidiary which it listed in November (and the key value driver for Sanken Electric), have fallen nearly 20% from just under US$31/share on 8 Feb the day after the announcement to US$25.14 yesterday.And Sanken itself has fallen back down to ¥5300/share, ~1.7% above the Tender Offer Price.In my first insight on the deal, I did not address "the stub trade" (Sanken's holding in Allegro, which was originally Sanken North America) and where I thought it should trade - as such - in the insight because frankly, it's difficult.

Effissimo, Sanken, and Allegro - Thinking About the Future

Effissimo Capital Management today after the close announced it would launch a partial Tender Offer to purchase up to 4,834,343 shares of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/sanken-electric-co-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:6073:1" rel="noopener">Sanken Electric (6707 JP)</a> to take it from 9.97% to 30.00%. It was non-solicited, and Effissimo did not contact the company about it, but the Tender Offer is being presented as very friendly, and only conducted so as to make it more efficient to buy a large volume of stock. The Tender Offer is priced at ¥5,205/share - a 17.1% premium to last - and will start 9 February 2021 and go for 30 business days, ending on 24 March 2021.Effissimo first showed up on the shareholder register with a large shareholder filing on 19 December 2018 showing a 5.06% position. It reported larger positions in May, June, then July 2019 to get to 9.58%. Their position has always been for the purpose of 純投資 or "pure investment". We do not know Effissimo's in-price, but looking at the chart below, we can suppose it is probably in the ¥2,000-2,500/share range.<section class="figure"></section><section class="figure"><figure class="editor-figure mceNonEditable"><img src="https://static-prod.smartkarma.com/images/media/000/187/436/original/Screenshot+2021-02-08+at+7.16.40+PM.png?1612783058" class="editor-image img-responsive" data-smartkarma-image-id="187436"></figure></section>Another activist (Oasis) showed up in November 2019 with a 5+% position, with a purpose of "portfolio investment making important proposals", and they upped their stake in February last year to a 6.47% position.

The above does not include the US$0.2bn SPA for amaysim Australia (AYS AU) discussed in Amaysim To Be Wound-Up After Mobile Sale.

Technically, China Biologic Products (CBPO US) was first mentioned on Smartkarma 14 months ago - but now we have a firm offer.


The average premium for the new deals announced (or first discussed) in November was ~29% and the YTD average premium for all deals discussed on Smartkarma (139 all-in) is ~31.5%.  The average for all deals discussed on Smartkarma in 2019 (145 deals all-in) was 31.5%.



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.

Late on 4 November, a press release by an entity called サンシャインＨ号投資事業組合 or Sunshine H Investment Partnership, sponsored by notable Japan-based activist investment manager Strategic Capital and a relatively unknown investment advisor called UGS Asset Management noted their intention to launch a Tender Offer to acquire 10.2061mm shares in Keihanshin Building (8818 JP), a building leasing and management company based in Osaka.
