Yatra Board Urges Rejection of $1.10 Tender Offer, Calls It Undervalued
YTRA sits 34% above its 52-week low of $0.722 on light trading volume (0.1× avg).
Summary
Yatra's board unanimously recommends shareholders reject Magna Holdings' $1.10 per share tender offer for up to 31% of the company, stating the price substantially undervalues the firm. This follows the board's earlier evaluation of the unsolicited offer and the company's recent financial struggles, including a return to losses and a Nasdaq delisting threat. The board's stance signals confidence in a higher intrinsic value, but the offer remains a 13% premium to the current $0.97 share price. Shareholders now face a decision between accepting the premium or backing management's view that the company is worth more.
