Movement Alert｜Gold Fields Falls 5.03% in Regular Trading, North Star Resources Rejects Takeover Offer

Market Focus10-23

On October 23, Gold Fields fell 5.03% in Regular Trading, trading around $34.99 per share, with turnover of $66.26 million.

The move followed public disclosure that the company’s proposed cash-and-stock takeover offer for North Star Resources, valued at about A$38.7 billion, or roughly $27.1 billion, was unanimously rejected by the target’s board.

Under the disclosed terms, Gold Fields proposed 0.3125 new Gold Fields shares plus A$7.25 in cash for each North Star Resources share. North Star Resources said the proposal undervalued its fundamental worth and argued that the stock component carried higher jurisdictional risk, adding pressure to market expectations for deal completion and transaction economics.
