there is an "undertone" out there - is there another bidder willing to go after IKON?
From Dividends.com, "...This acquisition continues a trend we have been seeing, in which office equipment makers have been acquiring distributors to strengthen their sales channels and product offerings. Ikon has 400 sales and services mainly in Europe and the U.S. Ricoh had recently acquired the European operations of copier service and supply company Danka Business Systems.
This is a solid offer in place, but we have added the shares of Ikon Office Solutions to our recommended list, as the possibility of another bidder jumping into the fray is a possibility. The company has a dividend yield of 1.03%, based on Tuesday's closing stock price of $15.56..."
In addition to this being the biggest move in the industry - ever - it could get even more delicious.
