- J&J (JNJ) highlighted that mini-tender offers target acquiring less than 5% of a company’s total outstanding shares, thereby bypassing SEC disclosures and other regulations.
- “The SEC has alerted investors that certain bidders initiating mini-tender offers at rates lower than market prices are ‘hoping to catch investors off guard in case they fail to compare the offer price with the current market price,'” J&J (JNJ) stated in a press release.
