Prologis has made public a letter it sent to Duke Realty CEO James B. Connor, proposing to acquire Duke Realty in an all-stock transaction that is worth nearly $24 billion, per the Wall Streett Journal's calculations.
Under the terms of the proposal, Duke Realty stockholders would receive 0.466 shares of Prologis common stock for each share of Duke Realty common stock they own. Prologis' proposal is valued at $61.68 per Duke Realty share, based on Prologis' closing price on May 9, 2022, and represents a premium of 29% to Duke Realty's closing price on the same date.
"We are confident that the proposed combination will be a win-win for our respective shareholders," said Prologis CEO and co-founder Hamid R. Moghadam. "Prologis has a proven track record serving as a leader and innovator in our industry. We have no doubt that Duke Realty's shareholders would similarly benefit from long-term value created by the combination of our companies."
