Industrial gas supplier Airgas rejected the unsolicited $5 billion buyout bid from larger rival Air Products and Chemicals Inc., calling it a "bargain basement price."
In a letter to Air Products CEO John McGlade, Airgas said the $60 per share offer, as well as an earlier bid of $62 per share, "grossly" undervalues the company. Airgas also noted that, with the current depressed prices for many companies in the market, it is a "terrible" time to sell the business.
