Jubilant Foodworks Netherlands BV (JFN), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jubilant Foodworks Limited announced to the exchange that it proposes to acquire up to 17.18 per cent ordinary shares of DP Eurasia NV (DP Eurasia). 

The shares are expected to be acquired through a reverse bookbuild process from certain professional investors of DP Eurasia. Earlier, the company through JFN acquired 100 per cent of Fides Food Systems Coöperatief UA, Netherlands, which holds 32.81 per cent of ordinary shares of DP Eurasia.

For funding the proposed acquisition, JFN has a short-term borrowing facility in place. Additionally, it is also exploring various other options to replace this short-term borrowing facility with a long-term facility or other means, as it may be appropriate for the company.
