Peter Quick votes against GAIN Capital acquisition
As Finance Magnates reported, Quick was one of the few Directors who voted against GAIN Capital’s merger with INTL FCStone Inc, which shareholders have since voted 71 percent in favor of.
Quick and fellow director Chris Sugden believed that in light of the performance of GAIN since the signing of the Merger Agreement, which puts the company’s value at $6 per share, it is no longer reflective of the long term value of GAIN Capital.
In February, INTL FCStone Inc. announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire GAIN Capital Holdings, Inc. The deal as it stands will see INTL FCStone buy GAIN for $6 per share in an all-cash transaction. This represents approximately $236 million in equity value.
