Deal: TClarke has received a 160p-per-share offer from Regent Acquisitions

A 135-YEAR-OLD building site contractor is the latest to join the exodus from London’s stock market after backing a £90m takeover deal.

T Clarke, which was founded in 1889, has received a 160p-per-share offer from Regent Acquisitions.

The firm’s directors recommended the deal and slammed the London market for consistently undervaluing the business. T Clarke, which delivers electrical and mechanical services, employs over 1,000 staff in the UK and made revenues of £491m and profits of £9.4m in 2023.

Based in west London, Regent supplies gas and metering services to industrial and commercial customers across the UK. Its boss, Deep Valecha, said: ‘I am excited by the opportunities this new chapter present for T Clarke.’
