The deal agreed to provide Britvic with an offer of 1,290 pence per share and give shareholders a small dividend of 1,315 pence per share.
Brittwich June rejected a cash offer of 1,250 pence per share from Carlsberg to acquire the British soft drinks maker. The company said at the time that the proposal “significantly undervalues Britvic and its current and future prospects”. Carlsberg’s previous offer of 1,200 pence per Britvic share made on June 6 was also rejected.
