Allied goes unconditional on Nationwide
Allied Farmers has gone unconditional on its purchase of Nationwide Finance. Settlement is scheduled for May 1.
The conditions of the purchase agreement, including the approval of the Allied Farmers Limited shareholders, the consent of the trustee for Nationwide Finance, and completion of the audit of Nationwide’s financial statements for the six months to 31 December 2006, were all satisfied as expected on or before 30 April. More than 99% of the votes cast at the special meeting to ratify the deal were in favour of it.
The purchase price will be confirmed on completion of final settlement accounts but is expected to be around $30.5 million to reflect changes in net asset value from December 31 up to the date of settlement.
