I have sold and moved on to Wincanton who are now at bargain price of 262p

You're welcome, I agree it is most likely to go ahead, but personally I can easilly see TDG surviving on its own, and prospering, and I intend to vote NO.

Not that my few will make much difference.

but there is plenty of time for another bidder to emerge.

Thanks RBCRBC. I can't believe it wont happen but now I see why the share price is so far off the bid.

It may not happen:


"To become effective, the Scheme requires the approval of a majority in number of Scheme Shareholders who are present and vote either in person or by proxy at the Court Meeting and who represent 75 per cent. or more in value of all Scheme Shares held by such Scheme Shareholders".


+ 3 months interest

"Latest date for consideration to be posted to TDG Shareholders (if Scheme becomes effective on1 October2008) 15 October2008"

Has anyone got any idea why :-
The offer for tdg is 250 and you can buy for 241. On the face of it there is more free money on offer.
I have sold but a quick perchase of say 20000 would net nearly 2 thousand quid.
Whats the catch ??

The company looks to be doing well. Laxey are getting a good deal.

-----------------

LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Logistics company TDG Plc., which has agreed to
a 250 pence per share takeover offer from Laxey Partners Ltd., said trading so
far this year remains ahead of its previous expectations and well ahead of the
comparable period in 2007.
The results reinforce its confidence in the group's strategy, and it is
confident of further good progress in 2008, the company added.
In Ireland, the company said it is exiting a loss-making facility in Dublin,
which has served FMCG contracts where trading has been difficult for a number of
years.

There is definitely a good fit between TDG and Wincanton. I would suggest it is very much in Wincanton shareholders best interests to persue a merger/take over. We will see but I reckon Laxey will get it at a knockdown 250p. I would speculate that they make a huge profit from selling it on in a year or so. They has already been large scale consolidation in the industry. That will continue in my view.

Another week to wait.

-------
Following representations made by the advisers to TDG, and having consulted with the advisers to Laxey Partners, the Panel Executive has
ruled that the deadline by which Laxey Partners must either announce a firm intention to make an offer for TDG under Rule 2.5 of the Code or
announce that it does not intend to make an offer for TDG should be extended to 5.00pm on 27 June 2008. No extension to the revised deadline
will be granted, except with the consent of the Panel Executive.

Wincanton says will not proceed with offer for TDG




LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Wincanton Plc. said it will not proceed with
its offer for TDG Plc. as it does not believe it is not in the best interests of
its shareholders.
The company had made an indicative cash offer of 281.25 pence per share for
fellow logistics company TDG on May 9, trumping a rival approach from offshore
investment group Laxey Partners.
The offer -- less the dividend of 8.75 pence -- was at a premium of about 30
percent to TDG's closing share price on Feb 26, the day before Laxey made its
offer.

Midas share tips: Specialist haulier TDG

2 December 2007

TDG transports everything from paint to petrol and from Bailey's Irish Cream to vacuum cleaners. The company has 1,200 lorries and works for a wide range of businesses, including Tesco, ICI and drinks giant Diageo:



TDG used to be known as Transport Development Group and was a combination of lots of different haulage and storage businesses, all of which worked independently, often in competition with each other. But the company has been rationalised and restructured to become a single entity, operating primarily in Britain and on the Continent.
The transportation industry is highly competitive and many of the key players have joined up to create huge outfits capable of shifting masses of goods around the world. TDG is not like that and it does not want to be.

Chief executive David Garman is keen instead to focus on specialist areas that require greater expertise and are a lot more profitable than the basic movement of goods.

The company is building a presence in four sectors --chemicals and hazardous products, temperaturecontrolled distribution, paper and packaging, and transcontinental transportation.

The first three require particular types of lorries and the last one also demands advanced logistical skills. The markets in all four areas are growing and there is a particular need for companies with the ability to transport goods from Asia and the Middle East to Europe.

TDG is actively looking for partners to help expand its presence in these regions, but it already works with Sainsbury's and Morrisons, who import goods from China.

Shares in TDG have fallen since the summer on fears that any downturn in consumer confidence will mean fewer products to transport. TDG is less exposed to this than many peers, however, as it focuses on industrial areas such as chemicals that should be less affected by the economic cycle.

Garman has a clear view of what he wants to create - an international distribution business that is big enough to do what customers want but small enough to be nimble.

•• Midas verdict: TDG shares trade at 209p and the dividend yield is nearly seven per cent. Brokers believe the shares are substantially undervalued. Buy.
