Brighthouse Financial recommends shareholders reject mini-tender by Potemkin

Brighthouse Financia announced that it has received notice of an unsolicited “mini-tender” offer made by Potemkin Limited to Brighthouse Financial (BHF) shareholders to purchase up to 100,000 shares of Brighthouse Financial’s common stock at a price of $36.00 per share. This means that Brighthouse Financial shareholders who tender their shares in the offer will receive a price significantly below the current market price for the company’s common stock and which is an approximate 41.12% discount to the closing price of the company’s common stock as of May 19, 2025. Brighthouse Financial does not endorse Potemkin’s unsolicited mini-tender offer and is not affiliated or associated in any way with Potemkin, its mini-tender offer or the offer documentation. Brighthouse Financial recommends that shareholders do not tender their shares in response to Potemkin’s offer because the offer is at a price that is significantly below the current market value of Brighthouse Financial’s common stock.
