Orion Properties confirms revised takeover offer from Kawa at $2.75/share

PHOENIX - Orion Properties Inc. (NYSE:ONL) announced Thursday it has received a revised unsolicited acquisition offer from Kawa Capital Management, Inc. to purchase all outstanding shares not already owned by Kawa for $2.75 per share in cash.

The revised bid represents a 10% increase from Kawa’s previous offer of $2.50 per share submitted on June 20, which Orion’s Board of Directors rejected on July 9.

Orion’s Board will review the new proposal with its independent legal and financial advisors to determine the best course of action for the company and its shareholders, according to a press release statement. The company said shareholders do not need to take any action at this time.

Orion has retained Wells Fargo as its financial advisor and Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP as legal counsel during this process.

The company does not plan to comment further until its Board completes the review of the revised offer.
