After the recent rise rise and rise, the much expected bid came along
One could say from 20p to 120p in one Year .........
Ithaca Energy's is recommending C$1.95 per share takeover by Delek Group which values the issued share capital of company at C$841m and implied a total enterprise value of approximately US$1.24bn.
Ithaca said the offer provided shareholders with the opportunity to crystallise the value of their holdings in cash and represents a 12% premium to the TSX closing price of C$1.74 per share on 3 February and a 16% and 27% premium to the 30 day and 60 day volume weighted average prices respectively.
Non-executive chairman Brad Hurtubise said: "We are very pleased to announce the Offer, which provides an attractive opportunity for all shareholders to secure a premium cash value for their investment following a sustained period of share price growth and at a favourable point in the company's evolution.
"A special committee of independent directors has fully assessed the Offer, with input from the company's financial advisor and an independent valuator, and believes the offer is fair and in the best interest of the company and its shareholders and unanimously recommends that the shareholders tender their shares to the offer."

Speculation that Delek will again try to bid for the company
Delek's recent Asset Sales:
17th Feb: Attempting to sell Phoenix Holdings.
19th April: Completion of Sale Republic Companies Inc ($140m USD)
31st July: Raised 1,112,000 NIS = Circa $300m USD
17th August: Sale of Tamin & Karish leases sold to Energan ($148.5m USD) Delek's Share 52.94 = $78.61 USD
17th August: Signing of Agreement Sale of Power Station Ashkalon 200m NIS = circa $53m USD
Delek seems to be off loading assets building up its reserves
Is this the plan to launch a takeover?
