On 3 July 2023, Mr. Werner Dubach announced his intention to acquire all publicly held shares of Datacolor AG (“Datacolor”) by way of a public tender offer. Werner Dubach, current major shareholder and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Datacolor, is offering CHF 760.00 in cash per Datacolor share. The total volume of the transaction amounts to approximately CHF 15.2 million.
Comparing the offer price of CHF 760.00 with the closing price prior to the public pre-announcement of the transaction of CHF 750.00 results in a premium of 1.3%. The volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) over the last 60 trading days at the same time was CHF 660.50, which reflects a premium of 15.1%.
With this offer, Werner Dubach underlines his strong commitment to the company, which is active in the field of color management solutions for the textile, apparel, paint, coatings and plastics industries and the growing consumer market worldwide. Following the acquisition of the remaining public shares, Werner Dubach intends to delist Datacolor shares from the Swiss stock exchange.
