　セブン＆アイ・ホールディングスが、買収提案を受けているカナダのコンビニエンスストア大手のアリマンタシォン・クシュタールに対し、「買収価格は不十分」などとする趣旨の書簡を送ることが５日、分かった。日本時間の６日にも送付する。
　セブン＆アイは先月１９日、アリマンタシォンから買収提案を受けたと公表。独立社外取締役で構成する特別委員会を設置して、提案内容を精査していた。特別委の検討結果を踏まえ、セブン＆アイは５日の取締役会で、提案された買収価格が企業価値に見合わないと判断。再考を求める内容の書簡を送ることを決めた。（2024/09/05-20:39）

Seven & i Holdings Co. plans to send a letter to Canada's Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc., which has offered to acquire the Japanese retail giant, to say that its proposed buyout price is too low, it was learned Thursday.
   Seven & i plans to send the letter to the Canadian convenience store operator as early as Friday.
   The Japanese company announced on Aug. 19 that it had received the acquisition offer. It set up a special committee of independent outside board members to review the proposal.
   Based on the committee's findings, Seven & i determined at a board meeting Thursday that the proposed acquisition price is not commensurate with the company's corporate value and decided to send a letter urging Alimentation Couche-Tard to reconsider its offer.
   According to Seven & i, the Canadian company offered to acquire a full stake. Although the proposed purchase price has not been disclosed, Seven & i's market capitalization as of Thursday stood at 5.6 trillion yen.
