Balance sheet value does not normally equal MV

That’s corporate finance 101.

MV is whatever someone is willing to pay. £25 is being used as a proxy because there is no market for the shares, but that isn’t to say there isn’t another willing buyer that would pay more.

It’s a moot point really, I don’t think the shareholders have a choice in the circumstances, and fundamentally they’re not being asked to approve the deal, just waive their right to also be offered £25 per share.

        The thing that I haven’t seen yet is why £25 is considered to be the MV per share (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Sep 4, 11:57:53
        
        doesn't the £25 per share come from the value agreed by Foulger? (NCFC) - Cardiff Canary, Sep 4, 12:20:21
