Ogier has advised Lenta Limited in relation to the all cash
offer for Lenta by Severgroup LLC.
Lenta is listed on the Official List of the London Stock
Exchange (LSE) and the offer price implies a value of approximately
US$ 1.75 billion for 100% of Lenta.
It was announced on 30 April 2019 that Severgroup had acquired a
holding of 41.9 % in Lenta, the hypermarket chain, from TPG Capital
and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development.
Following the closing of that acquisition, Severgroup's
unconditional all cash offer for the remaining securities in Lenta
has now been made.
Ogier advised Lenta on its initial public offering on LSE in
2014, which made it the largest listed BVI company at that time,
and has continued to advise the company since then.
Ogier's BVI Practice Partner, Ray Wearmouth, led the Ogier
team which included David Mathews and partners Michael Killourhy
and Grant Carroll.
Ray said "Having advised on the IPO five years ago it is
good to see the continued growth of the company. Public company
offer mandates are always interesting and demand a real team
effort. We are very pleased to have been involved."
