4.6.1 Free float restrictions include:
a) trade investments in an index constituent either by another constituent (i.e.,
cross-holdings) or non-constituent company or entity,
b) significant long term holdings by founders, their families and/or directors,
c) employee share schemes (if restricted),
d) government holdings.
e) Portfolio investments subject to a lock in clause, for the duration of that
clause
4.6.2 The following are not considered as restricted free float:
a) portfolio investments,
b) nominee holdings (including those supporting ADRs & GDRs), unless they
represent restricted free float as defined by 4.6.i above,
c) holdings by investment companies.
4.6.3 Free float restrictions will be calculated using available published information. The initial
weighting of a constituent in the index will be applied in the following bands.
a) free float less than or equal to 15%= see rule 4.6.4
b) free float greater than 15% but less than or equal to 20% = 20%
c) free float greater than 20% but less than or equal to 30% = 30%
d) free float greater than 30% but less than or equal to 40% = 40%
e) free float greater than 40% but less than or equal to 50% = 50%
f) free float greater than 50% but less than or equal to 75% = 75%
g) free float greater than 75% = 100%

its been free float adjusted since 2000



but it would appear the selection process is based on full market cap

question with RTR is can they include tradable canadian shares as free float

MIATA -- do you have a link to support that.

these guys have the full share capital as far as i can see

I am not sure, without going through the weighty prospectus, whether ThRts will just replace the RTR shares in the FTSE 100 or will they need to wait for the next election, but all the combined shares of ThRts will be in the FTSE 100 in due course on the basis of a dual listing

jarbie, thanks.

i estimate equity component of the offer equates to roughly 279p x 1238m shares or about £3.5bn. TOC equity cap i believe is $22.1bn (?) or about £11.1bn. on that basis RTR equity will be about 23% of combined.

not much of a freefloat, wonder if it could still be in the FTSE. anyone know the rules & likelihood?

Original merger valuation was 705p / share, based on:
Cash 352.5p
Shares 0.16 Thompson share (price then was Can$46.36)
Currency was £1 = Can$2.1936

Now Thompson share = Can$35.75

This suggests revised "valuation" would be approx 630p / share

Vote by shareholders is March 26th - if approved merger April 17th

the intervening period has massively devalued the offer, and US credit issues have impacted on Thompson share price, but at current share price I can still see this going thro'

don't forget final dividends = 10p / shares held as of march 25th / april 16th

thoughts anyone?

MERGER IS ON SCHEDULE, BUT AS THIS TAKEOVER IS CASH AND SHARES, THOMSON PRICE HAS FALLEN OVER 10% HENCE RTR HAS.

SIMPLE REALLY.

Only last week Devin sent out an internal memo stating who would would be doing what in the new TOC/RTR "senior management" team, so RTR clearly think it's going ahead.....Perhaps regulatory probs? Creating a situation where there are only two major players will certainly not leave much room for competition...

I'm sure the DOJ (U.S.) will be having a good look, just as they did when RTR bought what remained of Moneyline Telerate. I feel there may be some justified concerns by the authorities - the deal going through would mean an effective duopoly between RTR/TOC and Bloomberg.....
