What is a tender offer?

If outsiders seek to make a takeover attempt, or tender offer for a public company, the SEC tender offer rules often apply. The filings require the person making the tender offer provide detailed information to the public and shareholders about the tender offer and the plans of the persons making the tender offer. The target company is also subject to provisions of the tender offer rules.

The tender offer rules also set time limits for the tender offer and provide other protections to shareholders.
