Update on Non-binding, Indicative Proposal Process
On 11 December 2023, Rakon Limited (NZX: RAK) announced that it had received an unsolicited, non-binding, indicative proposal for the acquisition of all of the shares in the company (the Proposal).

The independent committee is continuing a process in respect of the Proposal, to assess whether it is in the best interests of shareholders as a whole, and can be developed into a transaction to be presented to shareholders for consideration. No action is required from shareholders at this time.

There is no certainty that any transaction will eventuate from the Proposal, including as to the terms or timing of any transaction. Rakon will continue to keep shareholders informed by market announcement in accordance with its continuous disclosure obligations but, given the confidentiality agreements it has reached, will not otherwise be providing further comment.
