An Offer. After disclosing a 5.4% equity holding in GEE Group back on January 22nd and announcing a desire to engage in merger discussions, Star Equity upped the ante yesterday, announcing a proposal to acquire GEE for $0.30 per share or about $33 million. The proverbial ball is now in GEE’s Board of Directors collective hands. We believe the combination makes sense from a strategic viewpoint, with the elimination of public company costs an added benefit.
Details. Star, subject to terms and conditions, is offering to acquire 100% of GEE’s common shares for $0.30 a share, with the purchase price paid in Star’s 10% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred stock (NASDAQ: STRRP). The proposed price represents an approximate 40% premium to GEE’s January 21st stock price. As part of the deal, Star expects GEE’s top management to forego change in control payments, but the executives would receive payment of a year’s salary and target bonus, also in STRRP shares.
