SDX shareholders oppose Tenaz tie-up
A group of shareholders owning 25.7% of Egypt-focused SDX Energy has written to the company's board to express their opposition to a proposed combination with Canadian firm Tenaz Energy.
SDX struck a deal to sell itself to Tenaz in late May in an all-share offer. But on July 18, SDX said it had received a letter from trading and investment firm Aleph, which is leading the group of shareholders that oppose the tie-up, announcing their intention to vote against it at a meeting on July 29.
