RE:What to expect in mergerThis is being described as a merger not an acquisition. Both parties come together to see if a combined company is a good idea for both parties. Therefore, this will more than likely be an exchange of shares, something like they will get 2 shares in the combined company for every one of their shares. There won't be any large financing coming out of this only dilution based on the ratio of shares issued in the new entity to both parties.
