Air Liquide announces a public offer for SOAEO shares

Air Liquide announced today the submission to the French Financial Markets Authority of a prospective simplified public offering concerning SOAEO SA shares. Air Liquide already possesses 86.8 per cent of the capital and 92.3 per cent of the voting rights.

Principally, Air Liquide will propose that SOAEO’s shareholders exchange their shares for Air Liquide shares. The proposed parity is one Air Liquide share for one SOAEO share. As a subsidiary measure, SOAEO’s shareholders may also choose to sell their shares for a cash purchase offer at the price of 145 euros per share, capped at a total amount of 50 million euros.
