Couldn't see any discussion of this on any existing threads.
Interesting to see that in the last ~month Driscoll's has taken a decent stake (just below the <5% substantial holding) in Costa at an average price of $2.66. Obviously no ASX announcement given the 5% threshold has not been breached. For those unaware, Driscolls is a Californian based unlisted berry producer and one of the larger berry growers globally. Costa has a licence to sell/market Driscoll's berry variants and has a partnership with Driscoll's relating to R&D/farming practices.
Don't wat to read too much into potential M&A activity given there could be a range of interpretations for a strategic stake, but at the very least it is a vote of confidence by a sophisticated industry player that there is value at these price ranges for Costa.
