BBX Capital Announces Intention to Commence a Cash Tender Offer
for Shares of its Class A Common Stock
FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida November 15, 2023 BBX Capital, Inc. (OTCQX: BBXIA) (PINK: BBXIB) (the Company) announced today that it intends to commence a cash tender offer to purchase up to 500,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock at a purchase price of $8.00 per share. The closing price of the Companys Class A Common Stock on November 14, 2023 was $7.75 per share.
If the tender offer is commenced and completed, the total purchase price for the shares proposed to be purchased would be $4,000,000. If more than 500,000 shares are tendered in the tender offer, then, subject to the terms and conditions of the tender offer, the Company will purchase shares from shareholders who properly tender shares on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate number of shares tendered.
The terms and conditions of the tender offer will be described in an offer to purchase and related letter of transmittal that will be mailed to the Companys shareholders shortly after commencement of the tender offer. The tender offer will be subject to certain conditions described in the offer to purchase. The Company currently anticipates commencing the tender offer within five business days. The tender offer will be held open for at least twenty business days following its commencement. To be valid, tenders of shares must be made prior to the expiration of the tender offer period and otherwise in accordance with the instructions for tendering shares to be set forth in the offer to purchase and related letter of transmittal.
None of the Company or its Board of Directors, the Information Agent for the tender offer or the Depositary for the tender offer will make any recommendation to shareholders as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering their shares in the tender offer. Shareholders must make their own decision as to how many shares they will tender, if any.
