Shares in Round Hill Music were up 64% at $1.125 by 0753 GMT,
having hit a record $1.15 earlier on.
In a note, Jefferies said it expects Alchemy's offer is "highly
likely to be successful" despite coming at a discount to net
asset value.
Shareholders in Round Hill Music will get $1.15 in cash per
share, a discount of approximately 11.5% to RHM's NAV per share
of $1.30 as of September 8.
Shares in rival Hipgnosis Songs Fund, which owns the copyright
to work by the likes of Shakira and Neil Young, jumped as much
as 16.5% to the top of the FTSE 350 and are on track for their
biggest daily rise ever on a positive read-across, according to
Jefferies.
Jefferies said Hipgnosis "trades on a similar discount, but is a
larger vehicle, with arguably a more iconic music portfolio."
