I Squared Capital will acquire Australian outdoor advertising firm oOh!media for A$1.04 billion (about $735 million), including debt. The deal values equity at about A$898 million, with shareholders receiving A$1.70 per share in cash and dividends. The offer is a 6.9% premium over the August 7 closing price and 100% above the April 28 price before rival Pacific Equity Partners made an initial bid. oOh!'s board unanimously recommended the deal after a competitive contest that also involved Bain Capital and Oaktree Capital.
