BOOM has signed an option agreement to acquire Sherrin Hire for $60 million plus assumed net debt of $70 million.
It intends to exercise that option on July 4 with settlement to occur in early August following an extraordinary general meeting.
The enterprise value of $130 million represents an EBITDA
multiple of 4.9 times Sherrin's forecast pro forma EBITDA of $26.8
million for the 12 months to June 30.
The acquisition is expected to generate at least 12 per cent EPS growth in the year ahead.

towers, where it is the clear market leader with more than 80 per cent
market share.

The acquisition of Sherrin is to be funded from an underwritten
institutional placement, comprising a $35 million firm placement and a
$32 million placement conditional on shareholder approval.
Joint lead managers to the placement will be ABN AMRO Rothschild and Wilson HTM.
Subject to approval of the placement, BOOM shareholders will
have the opportunity to acquire up to $5000 of new shares under a share purchase plan at the institutional placement price.
Record date for the SPP is June 30.

BOOM chief executive Mr Rod Harmon said the outlook for Boom and Sherrin over the next 12 months remained positive across all key
sectors, underpinned by strong demand from resources and infrastructuredevelopment.
"In addition, Boom will be actively targeting cross-selling
opportunities between the respective customer bases of Boom and Sherrin, and this has significant potential to generate further growth," he said.
The announcement was made after the close of trading.

davidrob,
I don't put much faith in analysts but I'm always interested to read what they say about stocks I hold/follow. They made that recommendation this week after the news on the acquisition and capital raising.
My name is mark and on another site mark was taken so I put the 100 on the end and now thats my name on all websites except hotcopper. Nothing to do with ASX100!
cheers

$4.70 would be nice but I'll be happy with $3!
