The company employs more than 25,000 people.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ferrovial, through Ferrovial Services, has announced today that it has submitted a takeover offer for all the issued shares in the Australian based company Broadspectrum (formerly known as Transfield Services) for A$1.35 per share, which implies an investment of A$715 million (approximately EUR490 million). Broadspectrum achieved in its financial year 2015 (ending in June) revenues of A$3,800 million and EBITDA of A$265 million. The company currently employs more than 25,000 people.<\/p>\n<p>Ferrovial Services believes the proposal represents a compelling proposition for Broadspectrum&#8217;s shareholders providing the certainty of cash and a premium to recent trading levels. The offer represents a premium of 59% to the last closing price of Broadspectrum shares prior to the announcement date. The proposal would also provide substantial benefits to employees and customers by joining a leading international services group.<\/p>\n<p>If successful, the acquisition would support Ferrovial Services&#8217; entry into the Australian market by integrating a large services company with a significant platform across various segments. Broadspectrum operates in Australia and other countries like USA, Canada and Chile, and in energy, mining, telecommunications and infrastructure maintenance markets.<\/p>\n<p>The offer will be subject to a final 50.01% minimum acceptance, foreign investors approval by Australian authorities and other limited conditions. The all-cash offer is not subject to any financial condition. The proposed acquisition has not been considered by the Broadspectrum Board and there is no guarantee the transaction will be successful.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Ferrovial<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ferrovial is one of the largest global infrastructure operators and city services managers, and is committed to developing sustainable solutions.
