AB Inbev is confident that its £68bn offer to buy SABMiller at £42.15 per share – its third after offers of £38 and £40 were rejected – will be accepted by the smaller brewer. AB Inbev CEO Carlos Brito is calling the deal a chance to make "The world's first truly global beer company." The proposal is worth 44% more per share than SABMiller’s closing price on 14 September, the last day of share trading before speculation over an AB Inbev takeover was made public. “AB Inbev believes that this revised proposal should be highly attractive to SABMiller shareholders and provides an extremely compelling opportunity for them,” the Belgian company said.
