Pacific Consortium has offered between $A4.40 and $A5 per share for Tatts Group. The consortium comprises Macquarie Capital, State Super, Morgan Stanley Infrastructure and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts. The bid is composed of two schemes of arrangement which involve the separation of Tatts Group’s wagering arm from its lotteries business. Tatts is also being pursued by Tabcorp, whose offer values Tatts at $A4.49 a share.
