Necessity of Bosch Limited Buyback
The Company has accumulated free reserves and satisfactory liquidity as represented by its bank balances and marketable securities. The future generation of cash along with borrowings, if any, will support the resources required for investments and other operational requirements of the Company in the coming years. The Buyback provides an opportunity to the Company to return excess cash to the Equity Shareholders and to enhance overall Equity Shareholders’ value.
The Board at its meeting held on November 05, 2018, considered the accumulated free reserves as well as the cash liquidity reflected in the audited standalone financial accounts for the financial year ending March 31, 2018 and as such, decided to allocate a sum of up to Rs. 21,59,01,00,000 (Rupees Two Thousand One Hundred Fifty Nine Crores One Lakh only) for distribution to the Equity Shareholders of the Company through the Buyback.
Additionally, the Company’s management strives to increase Equity Shareholders’ value and the Buyback would inter-alia result in:
- Improving the return on equity, by reduction in the equity base, thereby leading to long term increase in shareholders’ value.
- Helping the Company to distribute surplus cash to its Equity Shareholders, broadly in proportion to their shareholding, thereby, enhancing the overall return to the Equity Shareholders.
- Providing an option to the Eligible Shareholders to either participate and receive cash payments in lieu of Equity Shares to be accepted under the Buyback, or not participate and enjoy a resultant increase in their percentage shareholding in the Company, after the Buyback, without any additional investment.
- The Buyback, which is being implemented through the tender offer route as prescribed under the Buyback Regulations and the SEBI Circulars, would involve an allocation of 15% of the Equity Shares that the Company proposes to Buyback to Small Shareholders. The Company believes that this reservation of 15% for Small Shareholders would benefit a large number of public shareholders, who would be classified as “Small Shareholder” as per Regulation 2(i)(n) of the Buyback Regulations.
