Intertek Holders Peltz, Harris Say It’s Time to Engage With EQT

Investors holding almost 10% of Intertek Group Plc are now pushing for deal talks with EQT AB, after the private equity firm returned with a fourth and final offer for the British product-testing company.

EQT on Tuesday bid £60-a-share in cash for Intertek, which values the London-listed company at around £9.2 billion ($12.5 billion). Under EQT’s offer, shareholders would also receive a dividend of up to £1.077, as announced by Intertek in March.
