Luxfer Holdings PLC filed supplemental disclosures to its definitive proxy statement for its proposed $17.37-per-share cash sale to Double Eagle Acquisition Buyer, a Wynnchurch Capital-backed entity. The company said the disclosures respond to two New York lawsuits and demand letters alleging the proxy omitted material information, and that they do not change the consideration or the November 4, 2026 meeting timing. Shareholders are still asked to vote on the transaction, and the board continues to recommend voting FOR.
Proposed cash consideration is $17.37 per ordinary share; shareholder meetings are set for November 4, 2026.
Two lawsuits, Johnson v. Luxfer Holdings PLC and Thompson v. Luxfer Holdings PLC, were filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York.
Supplemental disclosures cover standstill provisions, Deutsche Bank's discounted cash flow analysis (implied value $15.05 to $20.80 per share), and precedent transaction multiples.
The company says the allegations are without merit and that it denies all allegations in the actions.

That clears one of the closing conditions, but the deal still requires shareholder approval, certain other regulatory approvals and High Court sanction in England and Wales.
HSR waiting period expired at 11:59 p.m. EDT on September 8, 2026.
