  • On the 29th May 2026, Tourism Holdings (THL NZ/AU) announced an NZ$3.10/share NBIO from a consortium comprising BGH Capital and the founding Trouchet family. Due diligence was subsequently afforded.

  • The same consortium, holding 19.9% of shares out, offered NZ$2.30/share for the world’s largest commercial recreation vehicle rental operator in June 2025; however THL summarily rejected terms.

  • This morning THL announced an NBIO of NZ$3.30-NZ$3.40/share from a “credible strategic buyer“. Due diligence has been afforded. Discussions remain ongoing with the BGH/Trouchet consortium.

Tourism Holdings (THL NZ) is illiquid. Look away now if that is not your thing


The Trade:

  • Two “credible” parties in the mix.

  • Trading 12% adrift of the low-end of the latest NBIO, after today’s 13.7% gain (as I type).

  • If small, illiquid - and non-binding arbs - are your bag, I’d be buying here. But not aggressively.

  • The BGH/Trouchet consortium have an effective veto on a competing Scheme. The mystery buyer may have to change up to a conditional Offer
