On 2 March, Klövern’s Board decided to complete the offer for Dagon, and at the same time extended the acceptance period until 2 April. The preliminary acquisition analysis is based on the shareholders who have accepted the offer as well as assuming that the remaining shareholders will decide to accept the offer with the distribution 30 per cent in cash and 70 per cent in preference shares. The value of the consideration to the shareholders who have accepted the offer amounts to SEK 455 million in cash and SEK 1,039 million in preference shares, based on the closing share price on 2 March. The total value of the offer for Dagon with 100 per cent acceptance amounts to SEK 1,510 million, which has been used in the calculation below.


Klövern considers that all assets and liabilities in the preliminary acquisition analysis have been listed at their fair value. Klövern is not aware of any contingent liabilities or contingent assets in Dagon. The acquisition-related transaction costs are estimated at SEK 8 million, of which SEK 1.5 million have been expensed as central administration during 2011. The issuance costs for the preference share are estimated at SEK 2 million and will be reported against equity.

The acquisition is reported as a business combination, which means full deferred tax and goodwill. When preparing this report, Klövern did not have access to detailed information about Dagon. The estimates are based on Dagon’s year-end report as at 31 December 2011 and are thus preliminary pending the business acquisition report.
