Target Australia Pty. Ltd. Appoints Dene Rogers as Managing Director

executive officer of North American retail giant Sears Canada since
2006.
Prior to Sears Canada, Dene Rogers was based in Chicago as Executive
Vice President and General Manager of Sears-owned Kmart (USA), where
he oversaw the operations of approximately 1,500 stores and $18 billion

7 July 2007
Wesfarmers buys Coles
Australia's biggest takeover is to go ahead with Wesfarmers to buy the
country's second biggest retailer, the Coles Group, for $22 billion.
In a deal announced late this afternoon, the company behind hardware
retailer Bunnings will pay $17 a share for the company, after a four
month
strife torn auction process.
Shareholders will also receive a final 25 cent per share dividend
bringing
the total consideration to $17.25 a share.
Wesfarmers is offering Coles shareholders a minimum of 75 per cent of
their holding in Wesfarmers stock which was trading at a record high of
$45.73 on Friday before it went into a trading halt this morning.
"This is a good outcome for Coles shareholders which recognises the
significant turnaround of the company over the last five years and the
future opportunity of the company's new growth strategy," said
Coles
chairman Rick Allert.
He said the board recommends the proposal in the absence of a superior
offer and subject to an independent expert's report.
Wesfarmers managing director Richard Goyder said the company was
looking forward to completing the sale as quickly as possible.
"The recommendation from the Coles board is a big step towards
helping
end the uncertainty for shareholders, employees, suppliers, and
customers
surrounding the company's ownership review,'' Mr Goyder said.
"Each business in the (Coles) business has growth prospects,'' he
added.
The purchase, which will be undertaken through a scheme of arrangement,
will require Wesfarmers to get the support of 75 per cent of
shareholders to
back the proposal.
A meeting will be held at the end of October.
Today's sale brings to the end a torturous 18 months in which the Coles
board rebuffed two earlier offers from US private equity giant Kohlberg
Kravis Roberts, the highest offer came in at $15.25.
Wesfarmers will pay for the company using $4.3 billion of cash and the
issue of 308 million new shares priced at Friday's close of $45.73.
Wesfarmers purchased 13 per cent of the retailing giant in April, a move
which effectively gave it a head start in the auction and locked out
other
bidders.
It represents a major gamble for Wesfarmers chief Mr Goyder who
succeeded Michael Chaney into the top job last year, as it will see the
Perth-based industrial conglomerate transformed into a predominantly
retail company.
Wesfarmers took the aggressive step of putting up a bid to buy Coles,
after
the shock exit of two private equity partners that were unable to raise
the
necessary debt.
The collapse of the Wesfarmers consortium was only revealed to the Coles
board when it received the offer on Saturday, although executives
associated with PEP are still believed to be involved in the Wesfarmers
bid.
The sudden withdrawal by UK private equity firm Permira and Pacific
Equity Partners means their plans to take 44 per cent of Coles' $16
billion
supermarkets, liquor, fuel and discount department store division have
been dumped.
Wesfarmers was the only name on the bid submitted to the Coles board
over the weekend.
It is understood neither private equity firm could come up with
satisfactory
debt arrangements, and a third minor partner, Macquarie Bank, withdrew
because the structure had changed.
The offer for all of Coles represents a huge bet for Wesfarmers chief
executive Richard Goyder, with a successful transaction doubling his
company's size.
Other bids received on Saturday included rival Woolworths and private
equiteer Texas Pacific Group lodging separate bids, but not for the
whole
group. Woolworths has bid for Officeworks and Kmart or Officeworks and
Target.
Coles shares last traded at $16.12.
While PEP is out of the running, PEP executive and former senior Coles
supermarkets managing director Steven Cain is still involved in the deal
and is a leading contender to run the business.
British retailer Asda's former chief executive Archie Norman still has a
small equity stake in the deal to buy 700 Coles supermarkets, 800 liquor
stores, 600 petrol stations and 160 Kmart stores.
"PEP was always more than just money. PEP was Steven Cain. PEP was
Archie Norman. PEP was a turnaround team,'' said a source close to PEP.
