Ivan Savvidis (Belterra) continues to buy shares of TPA from the Athens Stock Exchange, above the public offer announced by Leonidsport.

However, based on the report and the reasoned opinion of the company's board of directors on the public offer, PPA says the following:

  • The Public Offer provides the Company's shareholders with the possibility of disinvestment in exchange for a cash consideration

In any case, it remains to be seen what Leonidsport's next move will be, as Savvidis' side has raised the bar considerably...
