Excelpoint’s Scheme Meeting on 10 August, IFA’s Opinion

By Arun George

  • Unsurprisingly, the independent financial advisor (IFA) considers WT Microelectronics (3036 TT)‘s S$1.93 offer for Excelpoint Technology (EXLP SP) to be fair and reasonable. We think that IFA’s valuation approach is sound. 
  • The key condition is approval from shareholders and regulatory authorities (Taiwan pending). The scheme meeting is scheduled for 3:00 pm on 10 August. 
  • We continue to think that offer is attractive. At the current price and for the 15 September payment date, the gross and annualised spread is 0.5% and 3.1%, respectively.
