AustralianSuper rejects Brookfield and EIG bid for Origin Energy

Frontier Economics was an independent advisor to AustralianSuper, for Brookfield and EIG’s Origin Energy takeover scheme. Our role was to review the assumptions used in the Independent Expert’s Report (IER) in Origin’s Scheme Booklet.

Using robust economic analysis and long-standing expertise in the energy sector, our advisors, engaged by AustralianSuper - a long-term shareholder in Origin - found that the assumptions used in the IER to derive a business valuation are unrealistically low.

We refer all enquires in regards to this takeover bid, and our economic advice on this matter, to AustralianSuper.
