Planet Fitness (PLNT) increased its offer to buy the assets of Blink Holdings, proposing up to $151 million to top a rival bid for the bankrupt fitness chain, CNBC reported Wednesday, citing court documents.
Planet Fitness' prior offer was rejected because of antitrust concerns. UK-based privately held PureGym, which recently received preliminary approval by the bankruptcy court in Delaware, offered $121 million for Blink assets, including locations in New York and New Jersey.
According to CNBC, the offer by Planet Fitness actually consists of two bids: one paying $142 million if it does not need to address antitrust concerns before making its offer for Blink, or the other offering $151 million if the Planet Fitness bid requires additional regulatory filings before going before the court.
The court was scheduled to review the Planet Fitness offer as part of a Wednesday hearing. Planet Fitness did not immediately respond to a message from MT Newswires seeking comment.
