2001-03-15 Delaney Energy has Formed a Special Committee and Appointed a Financial Advisor
CALGARY, ALBERTA--Delaney Energy Services Corporation ("Delaney"), advises that in response to the news release issued by Integrated Production Services Ltd. ("IPS") on March 12, 2001, announcing a proposed unsolicited takeover offer for Delaney, Delaney's Board of Directors has formed a Special Committee to consider alternatives to the proposed IPS offer.
The Board and the Special Committee believe that the IPS unsolicited takeover offer of $1.05 per share does not adequately reflect the true value of Delaney. While the Board of Directors awaits receipt of a formal written offer, the Special Committee has engaged Raymond James Ltd. as its financial advisor and has initiated a process designed to maximize value for the shareholders of Delaney.
Delaney has a Shareholder Rights Plan in place, which allows the time necessary to conduct a proper value maximization process.
