Wedbush downgraded Telvent Git (NASDAQ: TLVT) from Outperform to Neutral. PT lowered from $40 to $31.

Wedbush analyst said, "Schneider has agreed to pay $40 per share to acquire
Telvent in a tender expected to take place in mid June, closing in 3Q11, and with a total transaction value of around $2 billion. Telvent’s Board of Directors has approved the deal and the company’s 40% shareholder Abengoa has also agreed to irrevocably tender its shares to Schneider. Completion of the transaction is subject to anti-trust approval from both U.S. and European authorities, from whom we do not anticipate any difficulties given a vibrant competitive landscape."

"We believe other bidders have previously considered purchasing the assets,
and we do not expect additional offers to materialize."
