Rakon ( (NZ:RAK) ) just unveiled an update.

Bourns, Inc. has reported strong progress in its takeover offer for Rakon Limited, with acceptances received for 82.801% of Rakon’s ordinary shares as at the end of 13 April 2026. The offer also covers various classes of unlisted share rights under Rakon’s Long Term Incentive Plan, for which Bourns has secured between roughly 82% and 100% acceptance across different tranches.

The high level of acceptances indicates that Bourns is close to effective control of Rakon, consolidating its position as the likely new owner pending completion of remaining offer conditions and processes. This development significantly advances the change-of-control transaction, with implications for Rakon shareholders and incentive-plan participants as control transitions to the bidder.
