TT Electronics tumbles as top shareholder scraps takeover offer

Dec 15 (Reuters) - DBAY Advisors, the biggest shareholder of TT Electronics, said on Monday that it does not intend to make an offer for the British company, withdrawing from a possible bidding war with Swiss firm Cicor.
Shares in TT Electronics fell about 21% to 105 pence in early trading.
DBAY Advisors, which holds a 24.5% stake in TT, said last week it was considering a takeover offer for TT Electronics, and that it continues to view Cicor's rival offer for TT as "unattractive" and plans to vote against that proposal.
London-listed TT Electronics had said in October that it rejected three unsolicited takeover proposals from DBAY, the last of which was valued at 130 pence per share.
Cicor's final all-cash offer for TT Electronics is 150 pence per share, alongside an alternative that offers Cicor shares.
TT Electronics and Cicor did not immediately respond to Reuters' request for comment.
