DCC plc shares jumped after the company confirmed it has received an indicative all-cash takeover approach from a consortium led by Energy Capital Partners and KKR. The prospect of a full cash bid has fueled investor optimism about a potential premium to the current market price.
The board, which is being advised by J.P. Morgan Cazenove and UBS, is now assessing the proposal and its merits for shareholders. Under Irish Takeover Rules, the bidding consortium has until 5 p.m. London time on 10 June 2026 to either make a firm offer or walk away.
