Genco Shipping says Diana Shipping withdraws bid for remaining shares
  • Diana Shipping withdrew its offer to buy the Genco shares it does not already own, ending months of takeover efforts.
  • Genco’s board sought consideration at net asset value with a control premium, citing an NAV of about USD 27.5 per share.
  • Advisers conveyed a framework of USD 27.5 per share in cash and three Diana shares, with Genco shareholders retaining dividends through closing.
  • Genco argued Diana overstated the value of its share consideration, citing dilution and a pro forma valuation near USD 1 per Diana share.
  • Genco said Diana planned to deduct Genco’s USD 0.8 per-share Q2 dividend, which it said would further reduce value.
