Speculation on Vulcan Steel’s interest in Metro Performance Glass
Vulcan (ASX: VSL, NZX: VSL) is aware of recent media reports speculating that the company is in some way associated with Peter Wells, Vulcan’s founder and former director who remains a substantial shareholder (through his interest in Takutai Limited), and who together with an associate has initiated a proposal to acquire Metro Performance Glass Limited (NZX: MPG). Vulcan wishes to clarify that this is not the case and that it has no financial or commercial interests, directly or indirectly, in that proposal.
