There was some curious trading in shares of VMware Tuesday as the stock declined but changed hands above the cash value of the Broadcom offer for the software company
The thinking on Wall Street is that the two companies could reopen the election period if the deal gets delayed much past Oct. 30 and allow investors a fresh crack at getting the more valuable stock consideration option in the deal. The value of the stock and cash offered was initially about equal but the stock portion became much more valuable with Broadcom stock up more than 60% since the deal was announced.
The companies have indicated that VMware shareholders who made no election would receive the “undersubscribed” consideration which likely is cash. Investors are concerned that the Broadcom/VMware deal could fall victim to deteriorating U.S./China relations. The failure of China to OK Intel’s purchase of Tower Semiconductor this summer prompted Intel to walk away from the deal.
