Holders of nearly 79 percent of shares at Inmarsat approved Friday a $3.4B takeover offer from a consortium of private equity firms and two Canada-based pension funds, Reuters reported Friday.
The vote came after the U.K.-based satellite telecommunications firm’s board backed the $7.21 per share cash bid from Apax Partners, Warburg Pincus, Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and Ontario Teachers™ Pension Plan Board.
The consortium said its bid was driven by Inmarsat™s long-term communications contracts with government agencies and the potential of the firm™s broadband connectivity services business supporting airlines.
Inmarsat expects a scheme of arrangement for the takeover to take effect in the fourth quarter.
