EGT Nevada Announces the Closing of the Tender Offer for Shares of Entertainment Gaming
14 Junho 2017 - 7:09AM
EGT Nevada Holding Inc. (“EGT Nevada”) announced today that it and
Melco International Development Limited (“Melco International”)
have completed the previously announced tender offer (the “Offer”)
for all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the
“Shares”) of Entertainment Gaming Asia Inc. (“Entertainment
Gaming”) (NASDAQ:EGT) that were not already owned by EGT Nevada and
its affiliates.
The Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 13,
2017. A total of 4,005,135 Shares (including 129,795 Shares
tendered by guaranteed delivery), representing 92.53% of the
outstanding Shares when combined with the Shares owned by EGT
Nevada and its affiliates, were tendered into and not withdrawn
from the Offer. According to the terms of the Offer, EGT
Nevada will deliver payment for the Shares validly tendered and not
properly withdrawn prior to the expiration date as promptly as
practicable.
As promptly as practicable without a vote of, or prior notice
to, Entertainment Gaming’s stockholders, EGT Nevada intends to
effect a “short-form” merger under Section 92A.180 of the Nevada
Revised Statutes, pursuant to which EGT Nevada will be merged with
and into Entertainment Gaming, and Entertainment Gaming will
continue as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned indirect
subsidiary of Melco International. In connection with such
merger, all Shares not validly tendered in the Offer, other than
Shares owned by EGT Nevada and its affiliates, will be cancelled
and converted into the right to receive the same cash price of
$2.35 per Share paid in the Offer. As a result, Entertainment
Gaming will become a privately-held company, and Entertainment
Gaming’s common stock will cease trading on the NASDAQ Capital
Market and will be delisted.
