    THE verdict is out: Keppel Corp has failed to hit the compulsory acquisition threshold required for the higher offer price of S$4.60 per share to kick in for its Keppel Land buyout.

    This came as a surprise to the market, which had been confident the 95.5 per cent threshold would be reached, especially with the second offer extension.
