Kansas City Southern sticks with CN Rail, rejects new Canadian Pacific offer

Seeking Alpha2021-08-13

  • Kansas City Southern says its board has determined that the latest unsolicited proposal from Canadian Pacific Railway does not constitute a superior proposal, and reaffirms its support of a merger with Canadian National Railway.
  • The company says it will wait for the U.S. Surface Transportation Board to make a ruling on the deal before a shareholder vote.
  • Earlier this week, CP submitted a new $300/share offer that values KC Southern at $31B.
  • Under the terms of the Canadian National deal, KC Southern shareholders would receive $200 in cash and 1.129 CN common shares for each KSU common share.
  • The consensus view points to alikely rejection of the KSU-CNI deal by the STB.
