Market Chatter: Ashland Urged by Activist Ancora to Pursue Sale

MT Newswires Live

Ashland (ASH) was urged by activist Ancora Alternatives, which has built a significant stake in the company, to sell itself, as a deal could boost its share price by at least 30%, Reuters reported Tuesday, citing a presentation it reviewed.

The hedge fund said it is prepared to launch a proxy fight at Ashland if no tangible progress is made toward reaching a deal by the time the window to nominate board members opens in September, the report said.

Ashland and Ancora didn't immediately reply to requests for comment from MT Newswires.
