Take-Two to EA: take that
Posted by Andrew on Wednesday, 18th June 2008 @ 11:28AM
Take-Two Interactive Software today responded to Electronic Arts announcement that it is extending for a fourth time its unsolicited conditional tender offer to acquire all of Take-Two's outstanding shares.
As reported by EA, only 6,139,824 of Take-Two's outstanding shares, or approximately 7.9% of the total, tendered into EA's offer as of a few hours ago.
"The latest extension of EA's unsolicited, highly conditional tender offer does not alter the fact that their proposal still significantly undervalues Take-Two, a fact that is reflected in the overwhelming number of stockholders who still have not tendered their shares," said Strauss Zelnick, Chairman of the Board of Take-Two. "Our Board of Directors remains in unanimous agreement that the proposal is contrary to the best interests of Take-Two stockholders, and the Board continues to recommend that stockholders not tender their shares to EA."
