In our last review of this footwear and clothes retailer we suggested there might be more to come from the current takeover bid from Affinity Equity Partners. Its $4.50 offer was too low and has been increased to $4.70, which now includes the payment of a 53 cent fully franked special dividend. We think the new bid is still too low, but the board doesn’t and has recommended it. Affinity has also waived some of the conditions and extended the offer to 22 September, with further extensions likely.

The share price has increased slightly since our last update, in issue 204/Jul 06 (HOLD—$4.60), but is still below the takeover price. Taking into account the special dividend, the offer proceeds are worth slightly more than the current share price.

While a higher bid is now unlikely, we suggest you continue to HOLD, with a view to accepting once Affinity gains control of the company.
