The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

The tender offer price was determined on the assumption that no year-end dividend would be paid for the fiscal year ending December 2026, and the dividend forecast has therefore been revised subject to the successful completion of the tender offer. It is also assumed that the company will be taken private and delisted through a series of procedures following the tender offer.
