Best and Final* Proposal and Request for PUSU Deadline Extension
NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN WHOLE OR IN PART IN, INTO OR FROM ANY JURISDICTION WHERE TO DO SO WOULD CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF THE RELEVANT LAWS OR REGULATIONS OF THAT JURISDICTION.
THIS IS AN ANNOUNCEMENT FALLING UNDER RULE 2.4 OF THE CITY CODE ON TAKEOVERS AND MERGERS (THE "CODE") AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A FIRM INTENTION TO MAKE AN OFFER UNDER RULE 2.7 OF THE CODE. THERE CAN BE NO CERTAINTY THAT ANY FIRM OFFER WILL BE MADE.
The Best and Final Proposal is final and will not be increased*.
Prologis believes the Best and Final Proposal provides a compelling opportunity for both sets of shareholders and urges SEGRO shareholders to encourage their Board to recommend the Combination.
The Best and Final Proposal consists of:
- 0.0920 new Prologis shares for each SEGRO share, a 9.5 per cent increase over Prologis' initial proposal; and
- a Partial Cash Alternative of up to £3.5bn, representing 25 per cent of the total consideration, at a fixed price of
1,031.7 pence per SEGRO share, subject to pro-rata scale-back.
Based on Prologis' closing share price of
- a premium of 14.0 per cent to SEGRO's pro forma adjusted NAV of
905 pence per share as of30 June 2026 ; - a premium of 39.0 per cent to the closing price of
742 pence per share on23 June 2026 (being the day prior to the commencement of the offer period); - a premium of 41.3 per cent to the 1-month volume weighted average share price of
730 pence as of23 June 2026 (being the day prior to the commencement of the offer period); and - a premium of 46.6 per cent to the 3-month volume weighted average share price of
704 pence as of23 June 2026 (being the day prior to the commencement of the offer period).
The Best and Final Proposal values the issued and to be issued share capital of SEGRO at approximately £14.0 billion.
*The Best and Final Proposal is final and will not be increased, except that Prologis reserves the right to increase and/or otherwise improve the Best and Final Proposal if: (i) there is an announcement on or after the date of this announcement of an offer or possible offer (including a partial offer involving the acquisition or consolidation of control (as defined in the Code)) for SEGRO by a third party offeror(s) or potential offeror(s) (whether identified or not), or (ii) the Takeover Panel otherwise provides its consent (which will only be provided in wholly exceptional circumstances).
Following completion of the Combination and assuming that the Partial Cash Alternative is fully taken up, existing SEGRO shareholders would hold approximately 8.9 per cent of Prologis' issued share capital.
Prologis also confirms that, in connection with the Combination, it intends to explore the feasibility of a secondary listing of Prologis shares on the London Stock Exchange if there is sufficient investor demand. For any such secondary listing to be feasible, Prologis expects that SEGRO Board engagement with Prologis will be required.
"There is no doubt a combination of both companies would deliver meaningful value. We have listened to feedback from shareholders and this morning, we have improved our proposal to make a compelling offer to the SEGRO Board. We run Prologis with discipline and this is our best and final offer."
Prologis urges SEGRO shareholders to encourage the Board of SEGRO to extend the PUSU Deadline and recommend the Combination
Prologis requests that SEGRO seeks from the Takeover Panel an extension to the PUSU Deadline of
Under the terms of the Best and Final Proposal, SEGRO shareholders will be entitled to continue to receive dividends up to the amounts specified below without a reduction in the terms of the Best and Final Proposal.
There can be no certainty that an offer for SEGRO will be made. A further announcement will be made as appropriate.

Forward-Looking Statements
The statements in this announcement that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry and markets in which Prologis and SEGRO operate as well as management's beliefs and assumptions. Such statements involve uncertainties that could significantly impact Prologis' or SEGRO's financial results. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "believes," "would," "could," "should" and "estimates," including variations of such words and similar expressions, are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that Prologis expects or anticipates will occur in the future – including statements relating to any possible transaction between Prologis and SEGRO , rent and occupancy growth, acquisition and development activity, including data center developments and power procurement related thereto, contribution and disposition activity, general conditions in the geographic areas where Prologis and SEGRO operate, expectations regarding new lines of business, Prologis' and SEGRO's respective debt, capital structure and financial position, Prologis' ability to earn revenues from co-investment ventures or form new co-investment ventures and the availability of capital in existing or new co-investment ventures – are forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Although Prologis believes the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, Prologis can give no assurance that its expectations will be attained, and therefore actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that may affect outcomes and results include, but are not limited to: (i) the ultimate outcome of any possible transaction between Prologis and SEGRO, including the possibility that SEGRO will continue to reject any proposed transaction with Prologis; (ii) uncertainties as to whether SEGRO will cooperate with Prologis regarding any proposed transaction; (iii) the effect of the announcement of any proposed transaction on the ability of Prologis and SEGRO to operate their respective businesses and retain and hire key personnel and to maintain favourable business relationships; (iv) the timing of any proposed transaction; (v) the ability to satisfy closing conditions to the completion of any proposed transaction (including shareholder approvals); (vi) other risks related to the completion of any proposed transaction and actions related thereto; (vii) international, national, regional and local economic and political climates and conditions; (viii) changes in global financial markets, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates; (ix) increased or unanticipated competition for Prologis' or SEGRO's properties; (x) risks associated with acquisitions, dispositions and development of properties, including those specific to data center development and the integration of the operations of significant real estate portfolios; (xi) maintenance of Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") status, tax structuring and changes in income tax laws and rates; (xii) availability of financing and capital, the levels of debt that Prologis and SEGRO maintain and their credit ratings; (xiii) risks related to Prologis' investments in and management of its co-investment ventures, including the ability to establish new co-investment ventures; (xiv) risks of doing business internationally, including currency risks; (xv) environmental uncertainties, including risks of natural disasters; (xvi) risks related to global pandemics; and (xvii) those additional factors discussed under Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in Prologis' Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Prologis undertakes no duty to update any forward-looking statements appearing in this announcement except as may be required by law.
