US$60m translate to about S$0.115 per share. I not sure Peh has factored in this before taking up the S$0.55 offer. Or maybe he didn't see this coming at all.
This money more than enough to top up the S$0.09 dividend that the company just distributed. Back to square 1.

Very likely a merger of the 2 companies to save on listing cost.

This appears to be a massive distress sale and a very loud wake-up call to investors that despite the recovery in oil prices, there is still no improvement in margins for the service providers.
Still, it is quite a shock given that the last traded price was 27.5 cents. Some discount would be expected given the size of the block and the low trading liquidity, but 50% is pretty steep.
