The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Yes, from page 9 of the quarterly report:

"Additionally, on September 30, 2024, Berkshire acquired 1.26% of BHE’s outstanding common stock held by certain other
noncontrolling shareholders in exchange for 1,368,508 shares of Berkshire Class B common stock valued at $625 million as of that date.
Berkshire also entered into an agreement to acquire the remaining shares of BHE common stock held by other noncontrolling
shareholders in exchange for 923,123 shares of Berkshire Class B common stock. This transaction closed on October 31, 2024. At that
time, BHE became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Berkshire."

Therefore, the price/share was $625 million/1,368,508 shares = $456.70, equivalent to $685,052/A-share or 1.565 times Sept 30 BV.

Thanks.
