Material Changes and Corporate Action
On May 28, 2026, ReNew received a non-binding proposal from a Consortium consisting of Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments) and Sumant Sinha (Founder, Chairman, and CEO). The proposal outlines a UK scheme of arrangement to acquire all issued and to-be-issued share capital not already owned by the Consortium. Key terms include:
- Consideration: US$6.75 in cash per share for non-Consortium shareholders.
- Structure: Shareholders may elect to receive the cash offer or retain their shares (Rollover). Failure to elect Rollover prior to the court hearing results in the Cash Offer.
- Current Status: A Special Committee of five independent non-executive directors, chaired by Manoj Singh, is evaluating the proposal. The committee has retained Rothschild & Co as financial advisor and Linklaters LLP as legal counsel.
