TransMontaigne to Merge With ArcLight's Unit in $536M Deal
Read MoreHide Full Article
TransMontaigne Partners L.P. recently entered into a merger agreement with ArcLight Energy Partners Fund VI, L.P.’s indirect subsidiary, TLP Finance Holdings, LLC. The deal is expected to enable TLP Finance to acquire all the outstanding units of TransMontaigne, which are not already owned by TLP Acquisition Holdings, LLC, for $41 per common unit. The aggregate value of the transaction is estimated at $536 million.
Following the news of the merger agreement, TransMontaigne units jumped 12.6% in the last trading session. Its units climbed up to $40.98 at the close of market on Nov 26.
Transaction Details
Notably, a similar offer of $38 per common outstanding units of TransMontaigne was made in July. Based on the stock price of $36.40 on Nov 23, the offered price translates into a 12.6% premium.
Per the deal, the unitholders of TransMontaigne will be receiving 80.5 cents of quarterly distribution per unit, until the deal closes. The transaction, which awaits some necessary approvals, is expected to close in first-quarter 2019. Headquartered in Denver, CO, the midstream firm’s common units will stop being publicly traded, upon transaction closure.
Price Performance
The stock has surged 6.7% in the past year against 10.4% collective fall of the industry it belongs to.
Zacks Rank & Stocks to Consider
Currently, TransMontaigne has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Investors interested in the energy sector can opt for some better-ranked stocks given below:
Rome, Italy-based Eni S.p.A. (E - Free Report) has a Zacks Rank #1. Its earnings for 2018 are expected to grow more than 100% from the 2017 level.
Houston, TX-based Shell Midstream Partners, L.P. carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). The company’s profits for 2018 are expected to grow nearly 20% from 2017.
The Hottest Tech Mega-Trend of All
Last year, it generated $8 billion in global revenues. By 2020, it's predicted to blast through the roof to $47 billion. Famed investor Mark Cuban says it will produce "the world's first trillionaires," but that should still leave plenty of money for regular investors who make the right trades early.
