Equity Inns Agrees to Be Acquired by Whitehall    BusinessWire 6-21
    ENN announced that it has entered into a definitive merger agreement under which an affiliate of Whitehall Street Global Real Estate Limited Partnership 2007 will acquire Equity Inns, Inc. in a transaction valued at approximately $2.2 billion, including debt. Under the terms of the agreement, Whitehall will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Equity Inns, Inc. for $23.00 per share in cash. This represents a premium of approximately 28% over Equity Inns' 90 day average closing share price and a premium of approximately 19% over Equity Inns' closing price on June 20, 2007. Equity Inns intends to pay its regular quarterly common share dividend for the quarter ending June 30, 2007, as previously announced on June 14, 2007 and under the terms of the merger agreement, Equity Inns is permitted to continue to pay regular quarterly dividends to shareholders of up to $0.25 per share, plus a prorated dividend for any partial quarter, prior to the closing of the transaction. Since 1991, Goldman, Sachs, through the Whitehall Street Real Estate Funds, has raised over $20.0 billion of discretionary equity capital across 10 funds and has acquired assets that represent a cost basis of approximately $60.0 billion.

Tishman, Lehman to Buy Archstone-Smith    AP 5-29
    Archstone-Smith, a major owner of apartment buildings, said Tuesday it had agreed to a Tishman Speyer-led buyout valuing the company at about $15.5 billion, but investors indicated they were expecting a higher bid. Tishman Speyer, owner of New York's Rockefeller Center and the Chrysler building, was joined by Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. in the friendly takeover bid, which would turn one of the largest publicly traded real estate trusts over to private investors. Archstone's board approved the deal unanimously at a price of $60.75 per share. The price represents a 22.7% premium over Archstone's Thursday closing price. Real estate investment trust analyst Craig Leupold of Green Street Advisors said the Tishman deal undervalues the company. "In our opinion, that's a disappointing outcome for shareholders," Leupold said. "We don't think the price fully reflects the value of the company."

NOTE: Although the tables above are checked and double-checked for accuracy, and may at times be 100% accurate - do NOT count on that. Please confirm through your own research any numbers on which you are to make a buy, sell or hold decision. Most sites giving this kind of data would say that it's information is for entertainment purposes only. I will not presume that you are that masochistic. And even accurately replicated and freshly retrieved FFO numbers are often stale.
