The board of Alternative Income REIT views a potential all‑share offer from AEW UK as potentially more attractive than Glenstone’s offer. AEWU’s proposed exchange ratio of 0.725 AEWU shares for each AIRE share implies a value of about 77.4 pence per AIRE share, representing a premium of around 10.6% versus Glenstone’s 70.0 pence, assuming an additional interim dividend. The board is still reviewing the terms and advises shareholders not to accept Glenstone’s offer or, if they have already accepted, to withdraw their acceptances where possible. AEWU has until 28 August to announce a firm intention to make an offer or to decline to do so. » More on de.investing.com

AEW UK REIT is considering a possible takeover in the form of a pure share exchange for Alternative Income REIT. Proposed exchange ratio: 0.725 AEWU shares for each AIRE share, based on the net asset values of both companies with a 6% discount to AIRE’s NAV. AEWU says the offer would likely be earnings-enhancing and points to its current annual dividend of 8 pence; a previous takeover attempt was abandoned in April. Glenstones’ announcement of a cash offer at a 15.4% discount has freed AEWU from City-Code restrictions; AEWU must announce its firm intention by 13 August 2026 and stresses that an offer is not certain and would be subject to shareholder approval. » More on de.investing.com
