DCC plc Corporate Events
DCC plc has agreed to acquire UGI International’s liquid gas businesses in Poland, Hungary, Czechia and Slovakia, adding more than 200 million litres of annual volume and around 30,000 bulk and cylinder customers to its network. The €48 million cash deal extends DCC’s liquid gas footprint into four new, fragmented Central European markets, anchored by AmeriGas Polska, the second-largest player in Poland with about 13% market share, and three FLAGA-branded operations in neighbouring countries. DCC plans to leverage well-invested infrastructure, a shared service centre in Warsaw and procurement synergies across Continental Europe to boost returns, targeting mid-teen returns on capital employed in the second year. The move underlines liquid gas as a core pillar of DCC’s Energy Solutions growth strategy and strengthens its ambition to become a global leader in lower-carbon energy sales, marketing and distribution, with implications for expanded scale, consolidation power and enhanced positioning in both European and global energy markets.

DCC plc has completed an on-market share repurchase linked to its previously announced tender offer, acquiring 11,605,415 ordinary shares from Davy at £51.70 per share for a total consideration of about £600 million, with the repurchased stock immediately cancelled. The cancellation reduces the number of DCC ordinary shares with voting rights to 85,423,097, with a further 2,186,132 shares held in treasury, and resets the share count used by investors to assess disclosure thresholds under UK transparency rules, tightening the company’s capital base and potentially enhancing earnings and returns per share for remaining shareholders.

DCC plc has completed a £600 million tender offer, purchasing 11,605,415 ordinary shares at a strike price of £51.70, equivalent to about 12% of its issued share capital excluding treasury shares. The offer was fully subscribed, prompting application of a scaling mechanism under which tenders below the strike price or at strike price on a strike-price basis are accepted in full, tenders at £51.70 are scaled back to keep the buyback within the £600 million cap, and tenders above the strike price are rejected. The shares will initially be bought by Davy, acting as financial adviser and broker, and then acquired by DCC under an option agreement, with proceeds to qualifying shareholders expected within 10 business days, marking a sizeable return of capital and a tightening of the company’s free float that may enhance earnings per share and support its long-standing capital returns track record.
