Rejects Danone. Yesterday, Lifeway Foods announced its Board of Directors rejected the unsolicited proposal made by Danone North America PBC to acquire all the shares of Lifeway that it does not already own for $25.00 per share. According to the Board, Danone’s proposal substantially undervalues Lifeway. Lifeway shares rose on the news, indicating investors may believe an improved offer may materialize.
Adopts Poison Pill. In addition, the Company adopted a Rights Plan that becomes exercisable if an entity, person, or group acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the outstanding shares of Lifeway common stock in a transaction not approved by the Board or if an entity, person or group that currently beneficially owns 20% or more of the outstanding shares of Lifeway common stock acquires any additional shares. Unless earlier redeemed, terminated, or exchanged pursuant to the Rights Plan, the rights will expire on November 4, 2025.
