tender offer statement

A tender offer statement is a formal proposal made by an individual or company to purchase some or all of the outstanding shares of another company’s stock, typically at a premium price. This offer is made directly to shareholders, bypassing the company's management. It outlines the terms of the purchase, the reason for the offer, and any conditions that must be met. Tender offers are often used in mergers and acquisitions to gain control of a company. Shareholders can accept or reject the offer, and the process is regulated to ensure transparency and fairness.
