Baudroie's fourth-largest shareholder has agreed to tender his full 3.93% stake into BCPE Neon Cayman's ¥2,970-a-share buyout, adding to a founder share sale struck at a lower price as the offeror works toward a two-thirds squeeze-out vote.
Baudroie corrected its MBO filing to show its ¥2,970 offer carries just a 3.81% premium to the pre-deal close, versus a 41.8% median premium in the 115 comparable Japanese buyouts the company cites to defend the price.
Baudroie's board has cancelled its planned ¥10.10 year-end dividend for the year to February 2027, contingent on Bain Capital's ¥2,970-a-share tender offer, which runs through October 5, to take the Tokyo Prime IT firm private, with founder-executives selling their 54.65% stake at a discounted ¥2,350 a share to stay on and roll over into the new owner.
