    Peel bidder group · 15 October threshold disclosure [7]

    As reported · 15 Oct 2026

The 187p offer became unconditional on 29 September 2026 and Peel nominees replaced the board on 2 October. At 1pm on 1 October, 66.47% was held by BidCo and concert parties; 67.39% included valid acceptances; 69.72% additionally included agreed unsettled purchases. The last figure is not an ordinary settled ownership percentage. An exact current stake, acquisition of 100% and completed delisting have not been established; the 13 October share-admission notice does not establish those later steps. Historic minority snapshots no longer describe current control. FTSE Russell's 15 October 2026 notice reports a Peel shareholding in excess of 75% and schedules Harworth's FTSE 250 removal for 20 October. This index change is distinct from stock-exchange delisting; exact current settled ownership, acquisition of 100% and completed listing cancellation remain unverified. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
