Brazil's Burger King owner snubs Mubadala bid | Reuters
The owner of Burger King Brazil, Zamp SA (BKBR3.SA), said on Wednesday its board of directors opposes Abu Dhabi state investor Mubadala Capital LLC's takeover bid for the firm, voicing its objection weeks before shareholders decide on the deal.
Zamp, previously known as BK Brasil Operacao e Assessoria a Restaurantes SA, is the master franchisee of the Burger King brand in Brazil, operating around 850 stores.
In early August, Mubadala launched a tender offer to purchase 45.15% of Zamp at 7.55 reais per share, which would lift its stake in the company to 50.1%. read more
In a securities filing, Zamp said it hired investment bank BTG Pactual as its financial adviser on the deal, which has established that a fair price would be in the range of 9.96 to 13.47 reais per share.
