H.B. Fuller’s board unanimously rejected Ancora’s unsolicited, non-binding proposal to buy the Building Adhesives Solutions business.
Board said the USD 1.1 billion to USD 1.2 billion valuation materially undervalued BAS versus precedent transactions.
Management expects BAS to drive earnings, citing Q2 organic growth of 6% and a 10% EBITDA increase.
Board warned a BAS carve-out would create material dis-synergies due to shared manufacturing across more than 30 plants.
Board said leverage can return to its 2.5x–3.0x target within two years following the Advanced Medical Solutions transaction.
