Mini-tender offer
Okay kiddo, so let me tell you about mini-tender offers.
Imagine you have a bunch of toys and your friend comes up to you and says they want to buy all your Legos for $10. That's kind of what a mini-tender offer is.
You see, when a company wants to buy some of the shares (or pieces) of its own stock from its shareholders (like you), they might make an offer to buy them back. But sometimes, another company or person might make a smaller offer to buy some of those same shares and they call it a mini-tender offer.
The reason why it's called mini-tender is because it's usually for a smaller amount of shares and the price offered is usually lower than the original company's offer. It's like if someone offered you $5 for half of your Legos instead of your friend's offer of $10 for all of them.
So, it's important to be careful with mini-tender offers and make sure you understand the details and who is making the offer. It's always good to talk to a grown-up, like a financial advisor or lawyer, before making any decisions about selling your shares.
