EP Group, a conglomerate controlled by Daniel Kretinsky, revealed on Tuesday that it had made a "non-binding indicative proposal" to the board of International Distributions Services (IDS), Royal Mail's parent company, on April 9 seeking its recommendation for a possible cash offer for the remainder of the shares it does not already own. - The Times
