Mike: <<The synergies are pretty blatant. But I can't see justification in the takeover price given the prices of the respective shares just a few months ago.>>
Price comparisons are highly dependent on initial time chosen. I used a charting program to peg AG, CSE, & NH to DE [The big kid on the block] 1 year ago. At that time, all three were dancing together for 2 or 3 months...as opposed to a crossover which doesn't usually say much. Fast forward to Friday and there was again a convergence of CSE, NH, & DE though there had been wide underpricing of CSE & NH in the interim. AG is still well under the rest...it hasn't recovered based on that frame.
Looking at book: AG is still selling well below book while Case is being taken out at nearly twice book. If AG is bid to just book, that's a 50% jump from here.
Scarcity value: How many other global Ag plays are there out there?
