Last month, Galaxy Partners, which owns 51.1% of Galaxy Nutritional, and private equity group Mill Road, agreed to contribute their combined 53% stake in the business to MW1.
The vehicle, through Andromeda Acquisition, a wholly-owned subsidiary, then launched a cash tender offer to buy the remaining shares in Galaxy Nutritional with a bid worth US$0.36 a share.
The tender was set to expire at 5:00 pm (ET) yesterday (30 March). However, it has now been extended for another 14 days to 13 April.
