Our Clients are major shareholders of Pennichuck.
I read with interest the comments by the city regarding their disagreement with the $203 million value that the Public Utilities Commission had placed on Pennichuck Water Works.
If the city does not want the asset, or is unwilling to pay a fair price, would it continue to interfere with a transaction with another highly regarded water utility in 2002 where the shareholders would have received a higher price (another utility offered $33 per share)?
Why not let the free market decide – or maybe even let the citizens of New Hampshire decide?
