Well if this if is correct it is interesting that they have waited until the last possible minute to do it under the 6month creep rule 22nd Feb to 21st August, stalling as long as they could before showing their hand?
To me it really is a matter of when not if Bushveld takeover LMR there is no other plausible explanation for them wanting to buy another 5% of the company at a hefty premium to the vwap
and the sellers arent dumb as they have specifically included that clause that says they will get the higher price of the takeover in the event of a takeover

Yep, whether mandatory or not, we're now in takeover attempt mode. Should find out in the next week what that offer is.
