4公司声讨战狼2Choice Hotels offers nearly $8B for rival Wyndham Hotels & Resorts as travel booms_我的网站
一 | 记者从长江防汛抗旱总指挥部了解到，预计今年汛期长江流域涝重于旱，长江中下游干流及洞庭湖、鄱阳湖两湖水系北部可能发生较大洪水。 根据预测，2024年汛期长江流域气候年景总体偏差，涝重于旱，由于降水时空分布不均，可能出现旱涝并存局面。 Choice Hotels International is asking shareholders of rival chain Wyndham Hotels & Resorts to sign off on a buyout worth nearly $8 billion after Wyndham broke off negotiations, the company said Tuesday. “A few weeks ago, Choice and Wyndham were in a negotiable range on price and consideration, and both parties have a shared recognition of the value opportunity this potential transaction represents, said Choice CEO Patrick Pacious. ”We were therefore surprised and disappointed that Wyndham decided to disengage. While we would have preferred to continue discussions with Wyndham in private, following their unwillingness to proceed, we feel there is too much value for both companies’ franchisees, shareholders, associates, and guests to not continue pursuing this transaction."Wyndham did not immediately respond to a request for comment early Tuesday. Choice, based in Rockville, Maryland, is offering $49.50 in cash and 0.324 shares of Choice common stock for each Wyndham share they own, a 20% premium to Wyndham's last closing price. Choice's proposal allows Wyndham shareholders to choose either cash, stock, or a combination of cash and stock. The proposal also includes giving Wyndham two seats on the combined company’s board. The deal has a total value of about $7.8 billion. When including debt, it's valued at approximately $9.8 billion. Choice first approached Wyndham in April, offering $80.00 per share, with 40% of that cash and 60% Choice stock, but was rejected, Choice said. It bumped the offer to $85 per share, then to $90 per share as the board chairs and CEOs of each company met. But, according to Choice, Wyndham voiced concerns about regulatory approval in September and also the value of Choice stock. Choice operates about 7,500 hotels in 46 countries. It's seeking to absorb a much larger chain in Wyndham, which operates nearly 9,300 hotels under a host of brands including Days Inn, Howard Johnson, La Quinta, Ramada, Super 8 and Travelodge. Wyndham, based in Parsippany, New Jersey, posted a profit of $355 million last year with revenue of $1.5 billion. Like most hotels, it has benefited from booming travel in recent years. The uptick in travel has lead to snarled airports and pilot shortages. That has cooled a bit this year as people become more cost conscious about their trips due to inflation and after spending more freely for more than a year. Wyndham's shares are up more than 170% since it stock price tumbled close to $25 each at the start of the pandemic. Shares of Wyndham Hotels & Resorts Inc. jumped more than 15% before the opening bell Tuesday, to $82.40. Shares of Choice Hotels International Inc. fell more than 2%.。6月到8月主汛期期间，流域降水量偏多，其中长江上游正常偏多5%～10%、长江中下游偏多10%以上，中游干流附近偏多可能达20%以上。 水利部长江水利委员会副总工程师 陈桂亚：根据今年的长期预测，长江流域多雨期在长江中下游包括两湖地区，长江上游降雨基本正常。因此今年防汛的重点是在长江中下游干流及洞庭湖、鄱阳湖两湖水系。同时金沙江中下游也有可能发生阶段性的干旱。所以说要做好应对涝旱急转的准备工作。 预计：未来7天，4月24日到25日长江干流以南自西向东有一次中雨、局地大雨的降水过程。4月28日起，长江流域开始新一轮降水过程。（总台央视记者 周伟 陈烨炜）。 Current article:http://95zz55w.pisezuibanzoukou.cyou/news/20260826_623333.html Published on:00:00:00 |
