Off-market takeover of Powerwrap by Praemium (ASX:PPS)
Henslow has advised Powerwrap (ASX:PWL) in relation to the $70.0m off-market takeover by Praemium (ASX:PPS). The merger will create one of Australia’s largest independent specialist platform providers with combined funds under administration of over $28.8bn. The transaction provides Powerwrap shareholders with greater liquidity and marketability through exposure to a company with a target market capitalisation and benefits from a valuation re-rate. Henslow acted as the sell-side advisor to Powerwrap, supporting the Board through the entire sale process, from the initial strategic review and takeover defence, through to the Board reaching unanimous support for Praemium’s offer and full divestment.
