Retrieved on: 
Monday, March 4, 2024

The Shareholder Proposals are consistent with recommendations Palliser presented in December 2023 to unlock value and catalyze growth at SCT.

Key Points: 
  • The Shareholder Proposals are consistent with recommendations Palliser presented in December 2023 to unlock value and catalyze growth at SCT.
  • The Shareholder Proposals comprise an important near-term initiative to help reduce the gap between SCT’s share price and its intrinsic market value, which is currently $22bn, equivalent to a 54% discount (the “SCT Value Gap”) and has consistently been in excess of 60%.
  • Unfortunately, SCT continues to trade at what Palliser believes is an unacceptable and excessively wide discount to its intrinsic value, with no cogent or transparent business strategy or plan to deliver long-overdue corporate value and improved shareholder returns.
  • We are fully supportive of the Shareholder Proposals and believe they represent important near-term initiatives to start addressing the Company’s persistent discount.
