Taylor Woodrow Share Discussion Threads

[8gamsby] 21/5/2007 19:48

PSN according to reports are not interested in TWOD because of USA exposure.Is it now a done deal or is anyone else interested.I would have thought with all the cash they generate that private equity might have shown some interest.

The share price on merger will be the TWOD price. Currently values WMPY at 698p.

[8gamsby] 18/5/2007 13:04

I think we need the JUDGE to cut short his holidays.Ive looked at the offer document and as far as i can see each WMPY SHARE WILL BE WORTH 1.3
TWOD shares.

Could anyone more knowledgable than I work out the share price on merger pls.

[markpun] 18/5/2007 07:40

Morning Folks,

Housebuilder George Wimpey gained 4.8 per cent to 627p as merger/arbitrage funds bet its proposed merger with Taylor Woodrow, up 0.1 per cent to 502p, would go ahead.

Concerns that the deal could be scuppered by a counterbid had seen the spread between the Wimpey share price and the implied value of the deal reach 17 per cent in the past week. However, yesterday's buying helped narrow the spread to around 12 per cent.

[markpun] 17/5/2007 16:11

I wish I had bought WMPY instead.

[8gamsby] 16/5/2007 20:15

Can anyone work out the probable share price if the merger goes ahead

[deanforester] 16/5/2007 17:33

The SPs of TWOD and WMPY are way out of line compared with the merger terms.

At the current levels, either WMPY ought to be about 700p, or TWOD should be about 440p. The equilibrium level isd no doubt somewhere between, but TWOD looks a bad buy if the merger goes ahead, compared with WMPY.

[8gamsby] 16/5/2007 12:13

Are they supposing now that a bid could be made for WMPY rather than TWOD? Either way i dont think that either of them would remain as a stand alone housebuilder.

[markpun] 16/5/2007 07:17

Housebuilder Wimpey rose 22 to 609p on persistent hopes that peer Persimmon could gatecrash its proposed £5.5bn tie-up with Taylor Woodrow. Persimmon was 15p higher at £14.10 and Taylor Woodrow rose 10¼ to 501¾p.

8GAMSBY,

There is still time, if nothing by month end imo then a done deal.

Have a good weekend.

[8gamsby] 11/5/2007 13:10

Looking like a done deal now TWOD/WMPY.

[8gamsby] 09/5/2007 20:10

MARKPUN sorry meant no other offers or interested parties.Ithink if no-one else comes forward TWOD SHARE PRICE WILL PLUNGE.WMPY valued at over £2.7 billion.I hope someone else comes forward.

[deanforester] 09/5/2007 10:51

Either TWOD has to go down. or WMPY has to rise, if the equilibrium of the merger is to be maintained. Currently, WMPY is way below the effective conversion price.

It looks like the only way is down if no bid materialises for TWOD.

[markpun] 09/5/2007 07:33

Morning Folks,

Here is apossible reason as to why we were down yesterday..

Hopes of a bid for engineer Tomkins faded, with the shares dropping 13½ to 289p. Dealers were also disappointed that a mooted bid for housebuilder Redrow from peer Persimmon did not emerge over the weekend. Redrow fell 22 to 621p. Meanwhile, Persimmon eased 22p to £13.83 and Wimpey shed 18 to 587p as dealers braced themselves for a possible rise in UK interest rates at tomorrow's Monetary Policy Committee meeting.

8GAMSBY,

Judge away on holiday, I'm still very much around.

[8gamsby] 08/5/2007 21:07

No sign of anyone else.

[8gamsby] 05/5/2007 21:01

Thanks for that just hope they join in and so make it better for the smaller .shareholders

[8gamsby] 05/5/2007 18:47

MARKPUN where did you get the info from on your last post.

[markpun] 05/5/2007 10:11

"Taylor Woodrow added 9¾p at 496¼p amid revived gossip that Persimmon (11p easier at 1375p) is about to bid for TW and so ruin its plan to merge with George Wimpey."
