Humm Group (ASX:HUM) has entered into a confidentiality agreement with The Abercrombie Group (TAG) and will begin due diligence this week for their potential deal under which TAG may acquire the company for AU$0.58 per share, according to a Tuesday Australian bourse filing.
The provision of limited due diligence does not guarantee that the indicative proposal will result in a binding offer or one that is capable of being recommended by the company's independent board committee, the filing added.
The company said it has engaged Flagstaff Partners as its financial adviser and K&L Gates as its legal adviser.
The company added that its shareholders do not need to take any action.
The company's shares fell almost 1% in recent Tuesday trade.
