STARBUCKS CORP
- Tutanota offers to buy up to 500,000 SBUX shares (0.04% outstanding) at $88.00, conditioned on closing price above $88.00.
- Starbucks does not endorse offer; recommends rejecting due to below-market risk and financing contingencies.
- Shareholders who tendered can withdraw any time before May 12, 2025 5:00 PM ET; Tutanota has made similar offers before.
- Mini-tender offers avoid SEC protections for >5% offers; SEC has warned investors about such tactics.
