DAVENPORTS REJECTS
REVISED OFFER
Birmingham brewer Davenports has
rejected improved and final terms from
neighbouring Wolverhampton & Dudley
Breweries.
Davenports' board said the revised
terms "still do not reflect the long-
term value of the company".
It continues to believe that Davenports
future is best secured by remaining an
independant company.
The board advises shareholders not to
take any action.
