Mini-Tender Offer A tender offer for less than 5% of shares outstanding. A tender offer is an offer to buy a significant amount of stock in a publicly-traded company directly from shareholders, an act that bypasses the board of directors. A tender offer may be part of a hostile takeover and therefore any offer exceeding 5% of the company's shares must be registered with the SEC and submitted to oversight. A mini-tender offer avoids this requirement, which can be detrimental to shareholders, as the SEC does not have the ability to protect their rights.
