A further extension has been given to Morgan Stanley Infrastructure Inc. to make an offer for Augean plc (AIM:AUG) or walk away. Augean, which has a base in Dundee, said on July 22, 2021 the UK Takeover Panel granted its request for a new deadline, the second extension in under a month. The infrastructure investment arm of the bank said in May it was considering an approach regarding a possible offer. But with talks still ongoing, the board of Augean has a new deadline for any deal of 5pm on August 19, 2021.
