Banco Sabadell reported this Tuesday that only 2.8% of the shareholders whose shares are deposited in the Catalan entity have attended BBVA’s takeover bid, according to the notification published in the National Securities Market Commission (CNMV). It is only equivalent to 1.1% of the bank’s total capital.
It has communicated these figures “in order to promote transparency and avoid speculation in the market” and has done so once it has received the final number of acceptances processed by Banco Sabadell clients before BBVA in its capacity as agent bank for the takeover bid.
It explains in the statement to the CNMV that the shares of Banco Sabadell whose holders have them deposited in this bank represent 30.8% of the share capital.
Of this percentage, 2.8% have accepted BBVA’s takeover bid with a number of shares that represent 1.1% of Banco Sabadell’s share capital. Therefore, the Vallesano bank highlights, 97.2% of these shareholders have not accepted the takeover bid.
