Garmin leaves the bidding war ?
Breaking news from Le Monde :
Garmin announced it wouldn't bid higher for TeleAtlas: with this announcement TomTom shares jumped more than 8% while Tele Atlas shares lost 9% on the Amsterdam exchanges.
memo : We had announced it here, TomTom offered 30€ a share, valuing Tele Atlas at around 2.9 billion euro, easily topping the 24.5€ per share bid made on Oct. 31 by its U.S. rival Garmin which valued the company at 2.3 billion euro. But apparently Garmin leaves the battle, without raising the offer.
