2313 GMT [Dow Jones]--Tourism Holdings is likely to reject the opening takeover offer by a BGH Capital-led consortium, reckons Forsyth Barr. Tourism Holdings is considering the consortium's all-cash proposal valued at NZ$2.30/share. BGH has already acquired a 19.99% relevant interest in the recreational vehicle company. "While Tourism Holdings has performed poorly in recent years, we don't expect Tourism Holdings's board to wave the white flag and support the offer just yet," says analyst Andy Bowley. BGH has a track record of lifting initial offers for listed companies, Forsyth Barr says. "Consequently, the current offer is likely to be rejected by the board, but we can't rule out a more attractive, higher bid that the board ultimately supports." (david.winning@wsj.com)
