H.B. Fuller’s Board unanimously rejected Ancora’s unsolicited proposal to acquire the Building Adhesives Solutions (BAS) business, determining the $1.1 billion to $1.2 billion offer significantly undervalues the segment. The Board highlighted BAS’s strong performance momentum, citing 6% organic growth and a 10% EBITDA improvement in the second quarter, and warned that a carve-out would create material operating dis-synergies.
