ItalyThe Italian telecommunications company TIM has seen its stock price decline slightly amid the ongoing takeover offer by Poste Italiane. The board of directors deemed the offer reasonable and strategically positive. Poste's bid includes both shares and cash components, with the cash portion currently at 1.67 euros per TIM share. Analysts note that if Poste decides to revise the cash component before the deadline, they must announce this by Thursday evening, which would automatically extend the offer period until September 11. Recently, TIM's CEO, Pietro Labriola, along with senior executives, has supported the offer, though the current acceptance rate remains below 5.5%.
